Commission staff issued a notice that
the project was ready for environmental
analysis (REA notice). Based on the
information in the record, including
comments filed on the REA notice, staff
does not anticipate that licensing the
project would constitute a major federal
action significantly affecting the quality
of the human environment. On June 7,
2023, the Commission issued a notice
indicating that staff intended to prepare
a draft and final Environmental
Assessment (EA). However, upon
further review, staff intends to prepare
a single EA on the application to
relicense the Meyers Falls Project.
The EA will be issued and circulated
for review by all interested parties. All
comments filed on the EA will be
analyzed by staff and considered in the
Commission’s final licensing decision.
The Commission’s Office of Public
Participation (OPP) supports meaningful
public engagement and participation in
