Wisconsin River Power Company; Notice of Availability of
Environmental Assessment

January 14, 2000.
    An environmental assessment (EA) is available for public review.
The EA analyzes the environmental impacts of Wisconsin River Power
Company's application to sell 2,380 acres of project lands along with
four recreation sites to the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources
(WDNR). All lands are part of the Castle Rock/Petenwell Hydroelectric
Project located on the Wisconsin and Yellow Rivers in Adams, Juneau and
Woods Counties, Wisconsin. The WDNR proposes to use these lands to
expand its Buckhorn State Park and Wildlife Area. The EA was written by
the WDNR and adopted by commission staff (with modifications) in the
Office of Hydropower Licensing, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
Commission staff's modifications are contained in our order approving
the application issued December 22, 1999.
    Copies of our order and the EA are available for inspection and
reproduction at the Commission's Public Reference Room, located at 888
First Street, NE, Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426, or by calling (202)
208-1371. The order and EA may also be viewed on the web at
