          - [Project No. 6634-003]

On February 8, 2019, Shasta Meadows, Inc. (exemptee) filed an application to surrender its exemption from licensing for the Prather Creek Project No. 6634. The project is located on Prather Creek, in Siskiyou County, California. The project does not occupy Federal lands.

The exemptee proposes to surrender its exemption for the project. The power purchasing agreement for the project expired in 2013. Currently, the project is non-operational and no water flows through the penstock. The exemptee proposes to leave all project works secured in place including the powerhouse and generator. A Notice of Application for Surrender of Exemption, Soliciting Comments, Motions to Intervene, and Protest was issued on December 12, 2022.

                    This notice identifies Commission staff's intention to prepare an environmental assessment (EA) for the project.[1]                                          The planned schedule for the completion of the EA is November 21, 2024. Revisions to the schedule may be made as appropriate. The EA will be issued and made available for review by all interested parties and a 30-day public comment period. All comments filed on the EA will be reviewed by staff and considered in the Commission's final decision on the proceeding.
