DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 2720-032--Michigan/Wisconsin]
City of Norway, Michigan; Notice of Availability of Environmental
Assessment
February 7, 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 FR 47897), the Office
of Energy Projects has reviewed the application for amendment of
license for the existing Sturgeon Falls Hydroelectric Project, located
on the Menominee River in Dickinson County, Michigan, and Marinette
County, Wisconsin, and has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA)
for the project. In the EA, the Commission staff has analyzed the
potential environmental effects of the proposed license amendment and
has concluded that approval of the proposed action, with staff-
recommended 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 Commission's
Public Reference Branch, Room 2A, located at 888 First Street, NE.,
Washington, DC 20426. The EA may also be viewed on the Internet at
http://www.ferc.fed.us/online/rims.htm. Please call (202) 208-2222 for
assistance.
Any comments should be filed within 30 days from the date of this
notice and should be addressed to David P. Boergers, Secretary, Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC
20426. Please affix ``Sturgeon Falls Project, FERC Project No. 2720-
032'' to all comments. For further information, please contact Patti
Leppert at (202) 219-2767. Comments and protests may be filed
electronically via the Internet in lieu of paper. See, 18 CFR
385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's web site
at http://www.ferc.fed.us/efi/doorbell.htm.
David P. Boergers,
Secretary.
