September 1, 2005.
In accordance with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and
the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (Commission or FERC)
regulations contained in the Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) (18 CFR Part
380 [FERC Order No. 486, 52 FR
47897]), the Office of Energy Projects
staff (staff) reviewed the application for
a New Major License for the Rocky
Reach Project. Staff prepared a draft
environmental impact statement (DEIS)
for the project, located on the Columbia
River in Chelan County, Washington.
The DEIS contains staff’s analysis of
the potential environmental effects of
the 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 DEIS is available for
review at the Commission or may be
viewed on the Commission’s Web site at
https://www.ferc.gov, using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link. Enter the docket number,
excluding the last three digits, to access
the document. For assistance, contact
FERC Online Support at
FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or tollfree at (866) 208–3676, or for TTY,
contact (202) 502–8659.
Any comments should be filed within
60 days from the notice date in the
Federal Register and should be
addressed to Magalie R. Salas, Secretary,
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission,
