BILLING CODE 6717–01–P

[Project No. 11499–000; Tennessee]

Armstrong Energy Resources; Notice

of Opportunity for Site Visit

February 14, 1997.

The Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission (FERC) and the Tennessee

Valley Authority (TVA) are reviewing a

proposal from Armstrong Energy

Resources to construct and operate the

1,500-megawatt Laurel Branch Pumped

Storage Project No. 11499. The Laurel

Branch Project would be located in

Bledsoe County, Tennessee, seven miles

northeast of Dunlap, Tennessee.

Since the July 1996 Scoping

Document I was issued for Armstrong

Energy Resources’ (AER) proposed

Laurel Branch Project No. 11499 and

Reynolds Creek Project No. 11500, AER

has decided not to pursue the Reynolds

Creek Project. AER, by letter filed

January 9, 1997, with the FERC, has

withdrawn its proposal, and

surrendered its preliminary permit, for

the Reynolds Creek Pumped Storage

Project No. 11500. AER, in deciding to

pursue only the Laurel Branch Project,

has also defined the preferred

transmission line corridor and

alternative corridors for the project and

reduced the initial project boundary.

Scoping and Site Visit

FERC and TVA have scheduled a joint

second public scoping meeting for

Armstrong Energy Resources’ revised

proposal on March 4, 1997 (notice of

this meeting was issued earlier on

February 3, 1997). The meeting will be

held at Sequatchie County High School

on the west side of Highway #28 in

Dunlap, Tennessee. The March 4

meeting will focus on the proposed

changes to Laurel Branch Project and

the proposed transmission corridor and

alternative corridors. The formal public

meeting will be held from 6:30 pm to

9:30 pm, CDT, with registration

beginning at 5 pm.

Prior to the formal public meeting, an

Information Open House will be held

from 5 pm to 6:30 pm, or later. The

Information Open House is an informal

opportunity for questions and

information about the overall project

scope and environmental review

process. At the Information Open

House, AER will have on display for

public examination, a large map

showing the proposed Laurel Branch

Project, the preferred transmission

corridor and alternatives, and private

properties that will be affected with

names of the landowners.

After the meeting on March 5, 1997,

there will be an opportunity for a short

site visit. The site visit will be

conducted mostly by private vehicles

and will cover the project areas,

including the defined transmission

corridor (and alternatives), that are

accessible by paved public roads.

Further details of the site visit will be

provided at the scoping meetings. Those

persons who are interested in the site

visit may contact Ginger Seeber of TVA

at (423) 632–1721, to register. There will

also be an opportunity at the meeting to

register for the site visit.

For further information on this

process, please contact Eddie R. Crouse,
