PPL Maine, LLC; Bangor-Pacific Hydro Associates; Notice of
Availability of Draft Environmental Assessment
November 3, 2004.
In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission or FERC)
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) reviewed the applications for amendment of
licenses for the Veazie Project, which is located on the Penobscot
River in Penobscot County, Maine; the Milford Project, which is located
on the Penobscot and Stillwater Rivers in Penobscot County, Maine; the
West Enfield Project which is located on the Penobscot River in
Penobscot County, Maine; the Stillwater Project, which is located on
the Stillwater River in Penobscot County, Maine; and the Medway
Project, which is located on the West Branch Penobscot River in
Penobscot County, Maine, and prepared a draft environmental assessment
(DEA) for the projects. In this DEA, staff analyzes the potential
environmental

amendments would not constitute a major federal action significantly
affecting the quality of the human environment.
