n. Scoping Process: Pursuant to the 

National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA), Commission staff will prepare 

either an environmental assessment 

(EA) or an environmental impact 

statement (EIS) (collectively referred to 

as the ‘‘NEPA document’’) that describes 

and evaluates the probable effects, 

including an assessment of the sitespecific and cumulative effects, if any, 

of the proposed action and alternatives. 

The Commission’s scoping process will 

help determine the required level of 

analysis and satisfy the NEPA scoping 

requirements, irrespective of whether 

the Commission issues an EA or an EIS. 

At this time, we do not anticipate 

holding on-site scoping meetings. 

Instead, we are soliciting written 

comments and suggestions on the 

preliminary list of issues and 

alternatives to be addressed in the 

NEPA document, as described in 

scoping document 1 (SD1), issued 

October 29, 2024. 

Copies of the SD1 outlining the 

proposed project and subject areas to be 

addressed in the NEPA document were 

distributed to the parties on the 

Commission’s mailing list and the 

applicant’s distribution list. Copies of 

SD1 may be viewed on the web at 

http://www.ferc.gov using the 

‘‘eLibrary’’ link (see item m above).

Commission 

[Project No. 4639–033] 

Ampersand Christine Falls Hydro, LLC; 

Notice of Availability of Environmental 

Assessment 

In accordance with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and 

the Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission’s (Commission) 

regulations, 18 CFR part 380, the Office 

of Energy Projects has reviewed the 

application for a subsequent license to 

continue to operate and maintain the 

Christine Falls Hydroelectric Project No. 

4639 (project). The project is located on 

the Sacandaga River near the village of 

Speculator, Hamilton County, New 

York. Commission staff has prepared an 

Environmental Assessment (EA) for the 

project. 

The EA contains the staff’s analysis of 

the potential environmental impacts of 

the project and concludes 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. 

The Commission provides all 

interested persons with an opportunity 

to view and/or print the EA via the 

internet through the Commission’s 

Home Page (http://www.ferc.gov/), using

deadline for filing protests, motions to 

intervene, and comments is 5:00 p.m. 

Eastern Time on December 30, 2024. 

How to file protests, motions to 

intervene, and comments is explained 

below. 

The Commission’s Office of Public 

Participation (OPP) supports meaningful 

public engagement and participation in 

Commission proceedings. OPP can help 

members of the public, including

Protests 

Pursuant to section 157.205 of the 

Commission’s regulations under the 

NGA,1 any person 2 or the Commission’s 

staff may file a protest to the request. If 

no protest is filed within the time 

allowed or if a protest is filed and then 

withdrawn within 30 days after the 

allowed time for filing a protest, the 

proposed activity shall be deemed to be 

authorized effective the day after the 

time allowed for protest. If a protest is 

filed and not withdrawn within 30 days 

after the time allowed for filing a 

protest, the instant request for 

authorization will be considered by the 

Commission. 

Protests must comply with the 

requirements specified in section 

157.205(e) of the Commission’s 

regulations,3 and must be submitted by 

the protest deadline, which is December 

30, 2024. A protest may also serve as a 

motion to intervene so long as the 

protestor states it also seeks to be an 

intervenor. 

Interventions 

Any person has the option to file a 

motion to intervene in this proceeding. 

Only intervenors have the right to 

request rehearing of Commission orders 

issued in this proceeding and to 

subsequently challenge the 

Commission’s orders in the U.S. Circuit 

Courts of Appeal. 

To intervene, you must submit a 

motion to intervene to the Commission 

in accordance with Rule 214 of the 

Commission’s Rules of Practice and 

Procedure 4 and the regulations under 

the NGA 5 by the intervention deadline 

for the project, which is December 30, 

2024. As described further in Rule 214, 

your motion to intervene must state, to 

the extent known, your position 

regarding the proceeding, as well as 

your interest in the proceeding. For an 

individual, this could include your 

status as a landowner, ratepayer, 

resident of an impacted community, or 

recreationist. You do not need to have 

property directly impacted by the 

project in order to intervene. For more 

information about motions to intervene, 

refer to the FERC website at https://

www.ferc.gov/resources/guides/how-to/
