Empire District Electric Company;
Notice of Availability of 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 major license to
continue to operate and maintain the
Ozark Beach Hydroelectric Project
(project). The project is located on the
White River, in Taney County, Missouri.
Commission staff has prepared an
Environmental Assessment (EA) for the
project.
The EA contains 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 EA via the
internet through the Commission’s
Home Page (https://www.ferc.gov/),
using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link. Enter the
