All comments, motions to intervene or protests should relate to project works which are the subject of the license amendment. Agencies may obtain copies of the application directly from the applicant. A copy of any protest or motion to intervene must be served upon each representative of the applicant specified in the particular application. If an intervener files comments or documents with the Commission relating to the merits of an issue that may affect the responsibilities of a particular resource agency, they must also serve a copy of the document on that resource agency. A copy of all other filings in reference to this application must be accompanied by proof of service on all persons listed in the service list prepared by the Commission in this proceeding, in accordance with 18 CFR 4.34(b) and 385.2010. (FEA) for an application filed by the Penobscot River Restoration Trust (licensee) on November 7, 2008, requesting Commission approval to surrender the project licenses for the Veazie, Great Works, and Howland Hydroelectric Projects, located on the Penobscot and Piscataquis Rivers in Penobscot County, Maine. The licensee proposes to surrender the project licenses and remove the Veazie and Great Works Dams, and construct a nature-like fish bypass around the Howland Dam. Surrender of the projects’ licenses is a component of the Lower Penobscot River Basin Comprehensive Settlement Agreement. The FEA evaluates the environmental impacts that would result from approving the licensee’s proposed surrenders. The FEA finds that approval of the application would not constitute a major Federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. A copy of the FEA is on file with the Commission and is available for public inspection. The FEA may also be viewed on the Commission’s Web site at https:// www.ferc.gov using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link.

    As part of our commitment to ensuring the effectiveness of the 
Integrated Licensing Process (ILP), Federal Energy Regulatory 
Commission (FERC) is undertaking a second effectiveness evaluation. To 
facilitate this review, FERC has contracted with Kearns & West to
