DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 137-002 California]
Pacific Gas and Electric; Notice of Availability of Final
Environmental Assessment
May 17, 2001.
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 F.R. 47897), the Office
of Energy Projects has reviewed the application for license for the
Mokelumne River Hydroelectric Project, a complex of multiple
reservoirs, diversions, conduits, and powerhouses on the North Fork
Mokelumne River, east of Sacramento, California in Alpine, Amador, and
Calaveras Counties and has prepared a Final Environmental Assessment
(FEA) for the project. The project occupies federal lands managed by
the USDA Forest Service (Eldorado and Stanislaus National Forests) and
the USDI Bureau of Land Management.
The FEA contains the 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.
Copies of the FEA are available for review at the Commission's
Public Reference Room, located at 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC
20426, or by calling (202) 208-1371. The FEA may be viewed on the web
at http://www.ferc.fed.us/online/rims.htm (call (202) 208-2222 for
assistance).
For further information, contact Jim Fargo (202) 219-2848.
David P. Boergers,
Secretary.
