Commission

Idaho Power Company; Notice of Intent
To Prepare an Environmental
Assessment and Revising the
Processing Schedule
On February 14, 2023, Idaho Power
Company filed an application for a new
major license for the 67.5-megawatt
American Falls Hydroelectric Project
(American Falls Project; FERC No.
2736). The American Falls project is
located on the Snake River in Power
County, Idaho, near the city of
American Falls, about 25 miles
southwest of Pocatello. The project is
located at the American Falls Dam,
owned and operated by the United
States Bureau of Reclamation. The
project occupies 7.37 acres of United
States land administered by the U.S.
Bureau of Reclamation in Power
County, Idaho.
In accordance with the Commission’s
regulations, on February 7, 2024,
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 and
the water quality certification issued by
Idaho DEQ, staff does not anticipate that
licensing the project would constitute a
major federal action significantly
affecting the quality of the human
environment. On April 22, 2024, 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 American
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.
