Don W. Gilbert Hydro Power, LLC;
Notice of Availability of Environmental
Assessment
tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
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 to construct the
Gilbert Hydroelectric Project, located on
several unnamed springs near the Bear
River in Caribou County, Idaho, and has
prepared an environmental assessment
(EA) for the project. The project would
not occupy any federal lands.
The EA includes 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.
A copy of the EA is available for
review at the Commission in the Public
Reference Room or may be viewed on
the Commission’s Web site at https://
www.ferc.gov using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link.

last three digits in the docket number
