DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Project No. 2277] 

AmerenUE; Notice of Scoping 

Meetings and Intent To Prepare an 

Environmental Document 

February 13, 2007. 

By letter dated February 2, 2007 to the 

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 

AmerenUE (licensee) affirmed its 

intention to rebuild the upper reservoir 

of the Taum Sauk Pumped Storage 

Project (FERC No. 2277). The Taum 

Sauk Project is located in Reynolds 

County, Missouri near the town of 

Lesterville. 

The upper reservoir was severely 

damaged during an uncontrolled breach 

of the northwest corner of the reservoir 

on December 14, 2005. The proposed 

project involves rebuilding the upper 

reservoir with a concrete-faced, 

symmetrical, roller compacted concrete 

(RCC) dam. The work would involve the 

complete removal of the existing rockfill 

dike that forms the upper reservoir and 

the construction of an RCC dam using 

the existing rockfill as the aggregate. 

The Commission intends to prepare 

an environmental document under the 

National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA) for the Taum Sauk upper 

reservoir rebuilding project. The NEPA 

document will be used by the 

Commission to identify environmental 

impacts and to identify measures that 

would help mitigate the impacts caused 

by construction activities. To support 

and assist our environmental review, we 

are beginning a public scoping process 

to ensure that all pertinent issues are 

identified and analyzed, and that the 

environmental document is thorough 

and balanced. 

We invite the participation of 

governmental agencies, nongovernmental organizations, and the 

general public in the scoping process, 

and will be preparing Scoping 

Document (SD) to provide information 

on the proposed project and to solicit 

written and verbal comments and 

suggestions on our preliminary list of 

issues and alternatives to be addressed 

in the NEPA document. The SD will be 

distributed to parties on the mailing list 


ycherry on PROD1PC64 with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 37 / Monday, February 26, 2007 / Notices 8377 

for this project, as well as other 

individuals and organizations that we 

have identified as having an interest in 

the Taum Sauk Project. The SD will be 

available from our Public Reference 

Room at (202) 208–1371. It will also be 

accessible online at http://www.ferc.gov 

using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link—select 

‘‘General Search’’, and enter ‘‘P–2277’’

in the ‘‘Docket Number’’ box. You may 

also call (202)–208–2222 for assistance. 

Following distribution of the SD, 

Commission staff will hold two scoping 

meetings on March 12, 2007, to receive 

input on the appropriate scope of the 

environmental analysis. The first 

meeting will be with the resource 

agencies to focus on their concerns and 

the second meeting will be with the 

general public to receive their input. 

Each meeting is open and the public 

and agencies may attend either or both 

meetings. The times and locations of 

these meetings are as follows: 

Agency Scoping Meeting 

Date: March 12, 2007. 

Time: 9 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. (CST). 

Location: Missouri Department of 

Natural Resources, Elm Street 

Conference Center, 1738 East Elm 

Street, Jefferson City, Missouri 65102. 

Public Scoping Meeting 

Date: March 12, 2007. 

Time: 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. (CST). 

Location: Lesterville High School, 

State Highway 21, Lesterville, Missouri 

63654. 

At the scoping meetings, Commission 

staff will: (1) Summarize the 

environmental issues tentatively 

identified for analysis in the 

environmental document; (2) solicit 

from the meeting participants all 

available information, especially 

quantifiable data, on the resources at 

issue; (3) encourage statements from 

experts and the public on issues that 

should be analyzed in the Commission’s 

NEPA document, including viewpoints 

in opposition to, or in support of, staff’s 

preliminary views expressed in the SD; 

(4) determine the resource issues to be 

addressed in the NEPA document; and 

(5) identify those issues that require a 

detailed analysis, as well as those issues 

that do not require a detailed analysis. 

Staff will also be soliciting input on 

potential measures that could be 

implemented to minimize constructionrelated impacts. The meetings will be 

recorded by a stenographer and become 

part of the formal record for this project. 

Individuals, organizations, and 

agencies with environmental expertise 

and concerns are encouraged to attend 

the meetings and assist Commission 

staff in defining and clarifying the 

issues to be addressed in the NEPA 

document. Interested parties may also 

file written scoping comments. All such 

comments (original and eight copies) 

should be filed with: Magalie R. Salas, 

Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission, 888 First Street, NE., 

Washington, DC 20426. The deadline for 

filing scoping comments is April 11, 

2007. 

Scoping comments may be filed 

electronically via the Internet in lieu of 

paper. See 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) or 

the instructions on the Commission’s 

Web site (http://www.ferc.gov) under the 

‘‘e-Filing’’ link. 

Please direct any questions about the 

scoping process to Thomas J. LoVullo at 

(202) 502–8900.
