DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 11730-000]

 
Black River Limited Partnership; Notice of Availability of Final 
Environmental Assessment

August 14, 2001.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) 
regulations, 18 CFR Part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 F.R. 47897), the Office 
of Energy Projects has reviewed the application for an original license 
for the existing and operating Alverno Hydroelectric Project, located 
on the Black River in the townships of Aloha, Benton, and Grant in 
Michigan (Cheboygan County) and has prepared an Environmental 
Assessment (EA) for the project. In the EA, the Commission's staff has 
concluded that approval of the proposed project, with appropriate 
mitigation measures, would not constitute a major federal action 
significantly affecting the quality of the human environment.
    Copies of the EA are available for review in the Public Reference 
Branch, Room 2-A, of the Commission's offices at 888 First Street, NE., 
Washington, DC 20426. The EA may also be viewed on the web at http://
www.ferc.gov using the ``RIMS'' link, select ``Docket#'' and follow the 
instructions (call 202-208-2222 for assistance).

David P. Boergers,
Secretary.
