In accordance with the Commission’s
regulations, on June 20, 2024,
Commission staff issued a notice that
the project was ready for environmental
analysis (REA Notice). Based on the
information in the record, staff does not
anticipate that licensing the project
would constitute a major Federal action
significantly affecting the quality of the
human environment. Therefore, staff
intends to prepare an Environmental
Assessment (EA) on the application to
license the project.1
The EA will be issued and circulated
for review by all interested parties. All
comments filed on the EA will be
