Availability of Environmental
Assessment
Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission
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 a proposed,
comprehensive shoreline management
plan (SMP) for Lake Keowee, a reservoir
of the Keowee-Toxaway Project (FERC
No. 2503), and has prepared an
environmental assessment (EA) for the
proposal. The project’s Lake Keowee is
located on the Keowee and Little Rivers
in Pickens and Oconee Counties, South
Carolina.
Duke Energy Carolinas, LLC, the
project licensee, filed the proposed SMP
to address increased interest in
residential development along the
Keowee reservoir shoreline, including
future requests for multi-slip marina
facilities. The proposed plan, itself, does
not propose the construction of facilities
or any ground-disturbing activities at
Lake Keowee, but only serves as a
management tool for the licensee to
manage the reservoir and the adjoining
shoreline. The EA contains Commission
staff’s analysis of the potential
environmental impacts of the proposal
and concludes that approval of the
proposed SMP, as modified by staff
recommended measures, would not
constitute a major federal action
significantly affecting the quality of the
human environment.
The EA is attached to a Commission
order titled ‘‘Order Modifying and
Approving Shoreline Management
Plan,’’ which was issued May 25, 2007,
and is available for review and
reproduction at the Commission’s
Public Reference Room, located at 888
First Street, NE., Room 2A, Washington,
DC 20426. The EA may also be viewed
on the Commission’s Web site at

Environmental Assessment
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 an original license for the Makah Bay
Offshore Wave Energy Pilot Project to be
located in part in Makah Bay of the
Pacific Ocean in Clallam County,
Washington and in part on the Makah
Indian Reservation near Neah Bay,
Washington, and has prepared an
Environmental Assessment (EA) for the
project. The EA contains the staff’s
analysis of the potential environmental
impacts of the project and concludes
that licensing the project, with
appropriate environmental protective
measures, would not constitute a major
federal action that would significantly
affect the quality of the human
environment.
