City of Holyoke Gas & Electric Department; Notice of Availability
of Environmental Assessment
May 18, 2006.
In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's regulations, 18 CFR part
380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47879), the Office of Energy Projects has
reviewed the application for a subsequent license for the Holyoke No. 4
Project, located on the Holyoke Canal adjacent to the Connecticut
River, in the City of Holyoke, Hampden County, Massachusetts, and has
prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA). In the EA, Commission staff
analyze the potential environmental effects of relicensing the project
and conclude that issuing a subsequent license for the project, with
appropriate environmental measures, would not constitute a major Federal
action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment.
A copy of the EA is on file with the Commission and is available
for public inspection. The EA may also 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 access the document. For assistance, contact FERC Online
Support at FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or toll-free at 1-866-208-3676,
or for TTY, (202) 502-8659.
Any comments should be filed within 30 days from the issuance date
of this notice, and should be addressed to the Secretary, Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Room 1-A,
Washington, DC 20426. Please affix ``Holyoke No. 4 Project No. 7758''
to all comments. Comments may be filed electronically via Internet in
lieu of paper. The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings.
See 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's
Web site under the ``eFiling'' link. For further information, contact
Jack Hannula at (202) 502-8917.
Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
