DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 14066-002]


Inside Passage Electric Cooperative; Alaska; Notice of 
Availability of Environmental Assessment

    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission's or FERC's) 
regulations, 18 CFR Part 380 (Order No. 486 52 FR 47,897), the Office 
of Energy Projects has reviewed the application for an original license 
to construct the Gartina Falls Hydropower Project, and has prepared an 
environmental assessment (EA). The proposed 450-kilowatt project would 
be located on Gartina Creek, near the Town of Hoonah, Alaska. The 
project would not occupy any federal lands.
    The EA includes staff's analysis of the potential environmental 
impacts of the project and concludes that licensing the project, with 
appropriate environmental 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
