Sandy Hollow Power Company; Notice

of Availability of Environmental

Assessment

August 18, 1997.

An environmentsal assessment (EA) is

available for public review. The EA is

for an application to amend the Sandy

Hollow Hydroelectric Project. The

licensee proposes to change its method

of water delivery to its authorized 160–

kW generating unit. The EA finds that

approval of the application would not

constitute a major federal action

significantly affecting the quality of the

human environment. The Sandy Hollow

Hydroelectric Project is located on the

Indian River in Philadelphia Township,

Jefferson County, New York.

The EA was written by staff in the

Office of Hydropower Licensing,

Integrated System Power Rates

AGENCY: Southwestern Power

Administration, DOE.

ACTION: Notice of public review and

comment.

SUMMARY: The Administrator,

Southwestern Power Administration

(Southwestern), has prepared Current

and Revised 1997 Power Repayment

Studies which show the need for an

increase in annual revenues to meet cost

recovery criteria. Such increased

revenues are needed primarily to cover

increased investments and replacements

in hydroelectric generating and highvoltage transmission facilities. The

Administrator has developed proposed

Integrated System Rate Schedules,

which are supported by a rate design

study, to recover the required revenues

and to unbundle transmission rates for

open access in accordance with the

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

(FERC) Orders 888 and 889. Beginning

January 1, 1998, the proposed rates

would increase annual system revenues

approximately 3.3 percent from

$96,192,500 to $99,405,135.

DATES: The consultation and comment

period will begin on August 22, 1997

and will end November 20, 1997.
