City of Sturgis; Notice of Availability of Draft Environmental
Assessment

January 14, 2000.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission's)
regulations, 18 CFR Part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), the Office
of Hydropower Licensing has reviewed the application for relicensing of
the Sturgis Hydroelectric Project, located on the St. Joseph River in
St. Joseph County, Michigan, and has prepared a draft Environmental
Assessment (DEA) for the project. In the DEA, the Commission's staff
has analyzed the potential environmental impacts of the existing
project and has concluded that approval of the project, with
appropriate environmental protection measures, would not constitute a
major federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human
environment.
    Copies of the DEA 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 DEA also may be viewed on the web at http://
www.ferc.fed.us/online/rims.htm (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, Room 1-A,
Washington, DC 20426. Please affix ``Sturgis Hydroelectric Project No.
2964-006'' to all comments. For further information, please contact
Patrick Murphy at 202-219-2659.

Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
