Notice of Availability of Environmental
Assessment; Dominion Energy South
Carolina Inc.
In accordance with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and
the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (Commission) regulations,
18 CFR part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR
47897), the Office of Energy Projects has
reviewed an application submitted by
Dominion Energy South Carolina Inc.
(licensee) to allow Newberry Sand Inc.
(NSI), in Newberry and Greene
Counties, South Carolina, the use of Parr
Shoals Hydroelectric (FERC No. 1894)
project lands and waters to conduct
hydraulic sand mining. The project is
located on the mainstem of the Broad
River Newberry and Fairfield Counties,
South Carolina.
An Environmental Assessment (EA)
has been prepared as part of
Commission staff’s review of the
proposal. In the application, NSI
anticipates removing 23,500 tons of
sand each year from the project
reservoir. The dredge would pump sand
to an upland processing area. This EA
contains Commission staff’s analysis of
the probable environmental impacts of
the proposed action and concludes that
approval of the proposal would not
constitute a major federal action
significantly affecting the quality of the
human environment with
implementation of the staff
recommendations.
The EA is available for electronic
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
