Department of Energy Federal Energy Regulatory Commission [Project No. 2307-078] 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 for the Salmon Creek and Annex Creek Hydroelectric Project, located on Salmon Creek and Annex Creek in the City and Borough of Juneau, Alaska and has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) for the project. The project occupies 648.45 acres of federal lands administered by the United States Department of Agriculture, Forest Service. The EA contains staff's analysis of the potential environmental effects of the project and concludes that relicensing the project, with appropriate environmental protective measures, would not constitute a major federal action that would significantly affect the quality of the human environment. A copy of the EA is available for review at the Commission in the Public Reference Room or may be viewed on the Commission's Web site at http://www.ferc.gov using the eLibrary link.
