DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 739-022-VA]


Appalachian Power Company; Notice of Availability of 
Environmental Assessment

    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) regulations, 
18 CFR Part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47879), the Office of Energy 
Projects has reviewed the application for a new license for the Claytor 
Hydroelectric Project, located on the New River in Pulaski County, 
Virginia, and prepared a final environmental assessment (EA). In the 
final EA, Commission staff analyzes the potential environmental effects 
of licensing the project and conclude that issuing a 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 final EA is on file with the Commission and is 
available for public inspection. The final 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.
    For further information, contact Emily Carter at (202) 502-6512.

    Dated: April 8, 2011.
Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
