DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

 Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 7387-019]

 
Erie Boulevard Hydropower, L.P.; Notice of Availability of 
Environmental Assessment

June 23, 2005.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and part 380 of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) 
regulations, 18 CFR part 380, FERC

[[Page 37811]]

Order No. 486, and 52 FR. 47,897, the Office of Energy Projects has 
reviewed the application for a new license for the Piercefield 
Hydroelectric Project, located on the Raquette River, in St. Lawrence 
and Franklin Counties, New York, and has prepared a single 
environmental assessment (EA) for the project. The project does not use 
or occupy any federal facilities or lands. In the EA, Commission staff 
analyzes the potential environmental effects of the existing project 
and concludes that licensing the project, with staff's recommended 
measures, would not constitute a major federal action significantly 
affecting the quality of the human environment.
    A copy of the EA is available for review at the Commission in the 
Public Reference Room or may be viewed on the Commission's Web site at 
http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket 

number excluding the last three digits in the docket number field to 
access the document. For assistance, contact FERC Online Support at

and issuances related to this or other pending projects. For

    Please file any comments (an original and 8 copies) within 30 days 
from the date of this letter. The comments should be addressed to

First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426. Please affix ``Piercefield
