[Project No. 1981-010-Wisconsin]


Oconto Electric Cooperative; Notice of Availability of Draft
Environmental Assessment

December 7, 2000.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission)
regulations, 18 CFR part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), the Office
of Energy Projects has reviewed the application for a new license for
the existing Stiles Hydroelectric Project, located on the Oconto River,
in the township of Stiles, Oconto County, Wisconsin, and has prepared a
draft Environmental Assessment (EA) for the project. In the draft EA,
the Commission staff has analyzed the potential environmental effects
of the project and has concluded that the approval of the project, with
appropriate environmental measures, would not constitute a major
Federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human
environment.
    Copies of the draft EA are available for review in the Public
Reference Branch, Room 2-A, of the Commission's offices at 888 First
Street, NE, Washington, DC 20426. The draft EA may also be viewed on
the internet at http://www.ferc.fed.us/online/rims.htm. Please call
(202) 208-2222 for assistance.
    Any comments should be filed within 45 days from the date of this
notice and should be addressed to David P. Boergers, Secretary, Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE, Washington, DC
20426. Please affix ``Stiles Hydroelectric Project, FERC Project No.
1981-010'' to all comments. For further information, please contact
Patti Leppert at (202) 219-2767. Comments and protests may be filed
electronically via the internet in lieu of paper. See, 18 CFR
385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's web site
at http://www.ferc.fed.us/efi/doorbell.htm.
