[Project No. 11910-002 Oregon]

 
 Applegate Dam; Notice of Availability of Environmental 
Assessment

June 15, 2007.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) regulations, 18 
CFR Part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), Office of Energy Projects 
staff have reviewed Symbiotics, LLC's application for the proposed 
Applegate Dam Project and prepared this environmental assessment (EA). 
The proposed project would be located at the existing U.S. Army Corps 
of Engineers' (Corps) Applegate dam located at river mile 45.7 on the 
Applegate River, near the town of Medford, in Jackson County, Oregon. 
The proposed project facilities would occupy 7.1 acres of federal land 
administered by the Corps below and adjacent to the dam. In addition, 
the project boundary would include 2.32 acres of National Forest System 
land and 0.66 acre of U.S. Bureau of Land Management land.
    This EA contains the Commission staff's analysis of the potential 
future environmental effects of the project. Staff 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.
    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
