DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

[Project No. 7387-019]
Erie Boulevard Hydropower, L.P.; Notice of Availability of
Environmental Assessment
June 23, 2005.
In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
and part 380 of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission)
regulations, 18 CFR part 380, FERC
[[Page 37811]]
Order No. 486, and 52 FR. 47,897, the Office of Energy Projects has
reviewed the application for a new license for the Piercefield
Hydroelectric Project, located on the Raquette River, in St. Lawrence
and Franklin Counties, New York, and has prepared a single
environmental assessment (EA) for the project. The project does not use
or occupy any federal facilities or lands. In the EA, Commission staff
analyzes the potential environmental effects of the existing project
and concludes that licensing the project, with staff's recommended
measures, would not constitute a major federal action significantly
affecting the quality of the human environment.
A copy of the EA is available for review 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 ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket
number excluding the last three digits in the docket number field to
