Brookfield White Pine Hydro, LLC;
Errol Hydro Co., LLC; Notice of
Availability of Final 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, the Office
of Energy Projects has reviewed the
application for a new license to
continue to operate and maintain the
Errol Hydroelectric Project. The project
is located on the Androscoggin River
and Umbagog Lake, near the Town of
Errol, and Township of Cambridge, in
Coos County, New Hampshire, and the
Towns of Magalloway Plantation and
Upton in Oxford County, Maine.
Commission staff has prepared a Final
Environmental Assessment (FEA) for
the project. The project would occupy
3,285 acres of federal land in the
Umbagog National Wildlife Refuge
managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service.
The FEA 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.
The Commission provides all
interested persons with an opportunity
to view and/or print the FEA via the
internet through the Commission’s
Home Page (https://www.ferc.gov/), using
the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link. Enter the docket
number, excluding the last three digits
in the docket number field, to access the

2 The Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedure provide that if a deadline falls on a
Saturday, Sunday, holiday, or other day when the
Commission is closed for business, the deadline
does not end until the close of business on the next
business day. 18 CFR 385.2007(a)(2) (2022).
Because the 15-day deadline fell on a Saturday (i.e.,
June 10, 2023), the deadline was extended until the
close of business on Monday, June 12, 2023.
