[Project No. 12769-000--MA]

 
Ice House Partners, Inc.; Notice of Availability of Environmental 
Assessment

December 13, 2007.
    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 exemption from licensing for the Ice House 
Power Project, to be located on the Nashua River, in the Town of Ayer, 
Middlesex County, Massachusetts, and has prepared an Environmental 
Assessment (EA). In the EA, Commission staff analyze the potential 
environmental effects of the project and conclude that issuing an 
exemption 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 ``Ice House Power Project No. 
12769'' 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 Tom Dean at (202) 502-6041.

Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
