Southern California Edison Company;

Notice of Availability of Draft

Environmental Assessment

July 31, 1997.

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.
42250 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 151 / Wednesday, August 6, 1997 / Notices

486, 52 FR 47897), the Office of

Hydropower Licensing has reviewed the

application for a new license for the

existing Kern River No. 1 Project, and

has prepared a Draft Environmental

Assessment (DEA) for the project. The

project is located near Bakersfield, in

Kern County, California. The DEA

contains the staff’s analysis of the

potential environmental impacts of the

project and has concluded that licensing

the project, with appropriate

environmental protective measures,

would not constitute a major federal

action that would significantly affect the

quality of the human environment.

Copies of the DEA are available for

review in the Public Reference Room at

888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C.

20426.

Any comments should be filed within

30 days from the date of this notice and

should be addressed to Lois D. Cashell,

Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission, 888 First Street, N.E.,
