In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as amended, and Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission or FERC) regulations (18 CFR Part 380), Commission staff reviewed the application for a minor license for the Santa Felicia Hydroelectric Project and prepared this final environmental assessment (EA). The project is located on Piru Creek in Ventura County, California. The project occupies 174.5 acres of U.S. land that is administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service (Forest Service) in the Los Padres and Angeles National Forests. Specifically, the project licensee, United Water Conservation District, requested Commission approval of the Santa Felicia Project for hydroelectric generation purposes. In the final EA, Commission staff analyze the probable environmental effects of relicensing the project and conclude that approval of the project, with appropriate staffrecommended environmental measures, would not constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. Copies of the final EA are available for review in Public Reference Room 2–A of the Commission’s offices at 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC. The EA also may be viewed on the Commission’s Internet Web site (www.ferc.gov) using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link. Additional information about the project is available from the Commission’s Office of External Affairs at (202) 502–6088, or on the Commission’s Web site using the eLibrary link.

ACTION: Notice of availability. AGENCY: SUMMARY: This notice announces broadly applicable alternative test method approval decisions that the Environmental Protection Agency has made under and in support of the New Source Performance Standards and the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants. Although we have made both site-specific and broadly applicable alternative test method approvals in the past, most recently we have issued only site- or facility-specific approvals. This notice announces our plan to issue broadly applicable alternative test method approvals in the future. We will post these broadly applicable approvals on our technology transfer network Web site as well as announce them in the Federal Register. The publication of these broadly applicable alternative test method approvals on our Web site will provide information about options and flexibility for the regulated community. In addition, this information may reduce the burden on source owners and operators in making site-specific alternative test method requests and the permitting authorities and the EPA E:\FR\FM\30JAN1.SGM 30JAN1
