DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 2232-480-NC]
Duke Power; A Division of Duke Energy Corporation; Notice of
Availability of Environmental Assessment
May 23, 2006.
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), the Office
of Energy Projects has reviewed an application for non-project use of
project lands and waters at the Catawba-Wateree Project (FERC No.
2232), and has prepared an environmental assessment (EA) for the
proposed non-project use. The project is located on Lake Wylie in
Mecklenburg County, North Carolina.
In the application, Duke Power (licensee) requests Commission
authorization to lease to The Sanctuary at Lake Wylie, LLC and The
Sanctuary Property Owners Association (The Sanctuary) 0.461 acre of
project land for a commercial residential marina. The Sanctuary
proposes to construct one cluster dock with ten boat slips and a
covered fishing pier located adjacent to the cluster dock, an
irrigation intake structure, and install 20,000 feet of shoreline
stabilization. The EA contains Commission staff's analysis of the
probable environmental impacts of the proposal and concludes that
approving the licensee's application, with staff's recommended
environmental measures, would not constitute a major Federal action
significantly affecting the quality of the human environment.
A copy of the EA is attached to a Commission order titled ``Order
Modifying and Approving Non-Project Use of Project Lands and Waters'',
issued May 23, 2006. The EA is available for review and reproduction at
the Commission's Public Reference Room, located at 888 First Street,
NE., Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426. The EA may also be viewed on the
Commission's Web site at http://www.ferc.gov
using the ``elibrary''
link. Enter the dock number (prefaced by P-2232) and 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 (866) 208-3676, or for TTY, contact (202) 502-8659.
Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
