[Project No. 12379-000--AK]
Lake Dorothy Hydro, Inc.; Notice of Availability of Draft
Environmental Assessment
June 4, 2003.
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), Office of
Energy Projects staff have reviewed the application for Lake Dorothy
Hydro, Inc.'s proposed Lake Dorothy Hydroelectric Project and has
prepared a Draft Environmental Assessment (DEA). The proposed project
would be located at Lake Dorothy on Dorothy Creek, near Juneau, Alaska,
and would occupy approximately 1,790 acres of land within the Tongass
National Forest administered by the U.S. Forest Service. This DEA
contains the Commission staff's analysis of the potential future
environmental impacts of the project and has concluded 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.
Comments on the DEA should be filed by July 3, 2003. Comments
should be filed with: Magalie R. Salas, Secretary, Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426.
Documents may also 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.gov
under the
``e-Filing'' link.
Copies of the DEA can be viewed at the Commission in the Public
Reference Room or may be viewed on the Commission's Web site at
http://www.ferc.gov
using the ``FERRIS'' link. Enter the
docket number excluding the last three digits in the docket number field
