          - [Project No. 5737-007]

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 submitted by Santa Clara Valley Water District for the Anderson Dam Project No. 5737, to draw down the Anderson Reservoir, construct and operate a new low-level outlet tunnel, and implement downstream measures. Anderson Dam is located on Coyote Creek in Santa Clara County, California.

                    A supplemental environmental assessment (EA) has been prepared as part of Commission staff's review of the proposal.[1]                                          The supplemental EA includes additional analysis to supplement staff's October 1, 2020 EA for the reservoir drawdown. The supplemental EA contains Commission staff's analysis of the probable environmental effects of the proposed action and concludes that approval of the proposal, with appropriate environmental protective measures, would not constitute a major federal                           ( print page 8612)                        action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment.                

                    The supplemental EA may be viewed on the Commission's website at                     *http://www.ferc.gov*                     using the “elibrary” link.
