project at the time and place noted 

below. The daytime meeting will focus 

on resource agency, Indian tribes, and 

non-governmental organization 

concerns, while the evening meeting is 

primarily for receiving input from the 

public. We invite all interested 

individuals, organizations, and agencies 

to attend one or both of the meetings, 

and to assist staff in identifying 

particular study needs, as well as the 

scope of environmental issues to be 

addressed in the environmental 

document. The times and locations of 

these meetings are as follows:

for accessing information in paragraph 

n. Based on all oral and written 

comments, a Scoping Document 2 (SD2)

Commission staff will conduct an 

environmental site review of the project 

on Wednesday, September 12, 2018, 

starting at 10:00 a.m. All participants 

should meet at the Little Falls 

Hydroelectric Plant, located at 499 

Canal Place, Little Falls, NY 13365. 

Participants should proceed over the 

Canal Place Bridge, take a left, and

Meeting Objectives 

At the scoping meetings, staff will: (1) 

Initiate scoping of the issues; (2) review 

and discuss existing conditions and 

resource management objectives; (3) 

review and discuss existing information 

and identify preliminary information 

and study needs; (4) review and discuss 

the process plan and schedule for prefiling activity that incorporates the time 

frames provided for in Part 5 of the 

Commission’s regulations and, to the 

extent possible, maximizes coordination 

of federal, state, and tribal permitting 

and certification processes; and (5) 

discuss the appropriateness of any 

federal or state agency or Indian tribe 

acting as a cooperating agency for 

development of an environmental 

document. 

Meeting participants should come 

prepared to discuss their issues and/or 

concerns. Please review the PAD in 

preparation for the scoping meetings. 

Directions on how to obtain a copy of 

the PAD and SD1 are included in item 

n. of this document.

stenographer and will be placed in the 

public records of the project.
