Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project Nos. 10855-002, Michigan, and 2589-024, Michigan]
Upper Peninsula Power Company, and Marquette Board of Light and
Power; Notice of Availability of Draft Environmental Assessment
April 30, 2002.
In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) regulations
contained in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) (18 CFR part 380
[FERC Order No. 486, 52 F.R. 47897]), the Office of Energy Projects
Staff (Staff) has reviewed the application for an initial license for
the Dead River Project and a new license for the Marquette Project,
both located on the Dead River in Marquette County, Michigan, and has
prepared a draft environmental assessment (DEA) for the projects. In
this DEA, the Staff has analyzed the potential environmental effects of
the existing projects and has concluded that licensing the projects,
with staff's recommended 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,
N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426. This DEA may also be viewed on the
Internet at http://www.ferc.gov 
using the ``RIMS'' link, select
``Docket#'' and follow the instructions. 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 Magalie R. Salas, Secretary, Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C.

``Marquette Project No. 2589-024,'' as appropriate, to all comments.
For further information, please contact Lee Emery at (202) 219-2779.
