The project is located on the Merrimack River in Middlesex County, Massachusetts. The draft EA contains the Commission staff’s analysis of the potential environmental effects of the proposed replacement of the wooden flashboards with a pneumatic crest gate system of the same height and interim modifications to the existing flashboard system and concludes that authorizing the amendment, with appropriate environmental protective measures, would not constitute a major Federal action that would significantly affect the quality of the human environment. A copy of the draft EA is available for review at the Commission in the Public Reference Room, or it may be viewed on the Commission’s Web site at https:// www.ferc.gov using the e-Library link.

The Drum-Spaulding Project is located on the west slope of the Sierra Nevada on the South Yuba River, Bear River, North Fork of the North Fork American River, and tributaries in the Sacramento River watershed in Nevada and Placer Counties, California. The Yuba-Bear Hydroelectric Project is located on the west slope of the Sierra PO 00000 Frm 00024 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Nevada in the Middle Yuba River, Canyon Creek, Rucker Creek and Bear River watersheds in Nevada, Placer and Sierra Counties, California. The site visit is open to the public and resource agencies, and will occur from 8 a.m. to about 5 p.m. (Pacific Daylight Time) on each of three days. Participants will meet no later than the start time at Discovery Trail near Bear Valley on the first day, at PG&E’s Alta Service Center on the second day, and at PG&E’s Halsey forebay on the third day. Each day will start with a brief safety talk, review of the facilities that will be visited that day, and discussion of logistics. The tour will depart the meeting location no later than 15 minutes after the start time. We will try to return to the meeting location by 5 p.m. each day. Participants are responsible to provide their own transportation (recommend a 4-wheel drive vehicle), but car pooling to the extent possible is encouraged. We do not anticipate hiking in any difficult terrain or entering private property that requires special permission, but some brief walking over dirt trails might be needed. Cell phone coverage in the upper and mid elevation sites is limited. Safety is a prime concern. Many of the sites that will be visited require wearing hardhats, safety eyewear, and safety vests that licensees will provide. Participants must wear appropriate footwear (i.e. no sandals or open-toed shoes). The schedule below is provided for general guidance only and is not intended to be a strict schedule. We may proceed through the schedule for each day at a slower or faster pace than anticipated in the schedule below, or may decide to delete or add project facilities. For these reasons and because of poor electronic communications in some areas, it will be difficult for a participant to join the site visit after it departs the initial meeting location. Project facilities listed below are indicated as either ‘‘YB’’ for NID’s YubaBear Hydroelectric Project or ‘‘DS’’ for PG&E’s Drum-Spaulding Project. Wednesday, July 6, 2011 • Meet at Discovery Trail in Bear Valley at 8 a.m.; • Bowman Lake (YB); • Bowman/Spaulding canal at Fall Creek (YB); • Fuller Lake (DS); • Lake Spaulding dam (DS); • Bear Valley—Drum canal and South Yuba canal (DS).
