[Project No. 11588 Alaska]

Alaska Power and Telephone Company

[Otter Creek Hydroelectric Project];

Notice of Intent To Conduct

Environmental Scoping Meetings and a

Site Visit

March 27, 1997.

The Energy Policy Act of 1992 allows

applicants to prepare their own

environmental assessment (EA) for

hydropower projects and file it with the

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

(Commission) along with their license

application as part of the ‘‘applicantprepared EA’’ process. Alaska Power

and Telephone Company (AP&T)

intends to prepare an EA to file with the

Commission for the proposed Otter

Creek Hydroelectric Project, No. 11588.

AP&T will hold two scoping meetings,

pursuant to the National Environmental

Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, to identify

the scope of issues that should be

analyzed in the EA.

Scoping Meetings

The times and locations of the two

scoping meetings are:

Public meeting Agency meeting

Date: Tuesday, May

6, 1997.

Date: Thursday,

May 8, 1997.

Public meeting Agency meeting

Place: National Park

Service, Auditorium, Second Avenue, Skagway,

Alaska.

Place: U.S. Forest

Service, Juneau

Ranger District,

Confer. Room,

Main Building, 8465

Old Dairy Road, Juneau, Alaska.

Time: 7:00 P.M ....... Time: 10:00 A.M.

At the scoping meetings, AP&T will:

(1) Summarize the tentative

environmental issues and concerns on

the project, (2) outline those preliminary

resources that they believe would not

require a detailed analysis, (3) identify

reasonable alternatives to be addressed

in the EA, (4) solicit from the meeting

participants all available baseline

information, especially quantitative

data, on the resource issues, and (5)

encourage statements from experts and

the public on issues that should be

analyzed in the EA, including views

supporting or opposing AP&T’s

preliminary views.

All interested individuals,

organizations, and agencies are invited

and encouraged to attend either or both

meetings to assist in identifying and

clarifying the scope of environmental

issues that should be analyzed in the

EA.

To help focus discussions at the

meetings, AP&T will prepare and

distribute to the participants prior to the

meetings, the Initial Consultation

Package and Scoping Document 1 for

this project. Copies of this scoping

document can be obtained by calling

Mr. Glen Martin of AP&T at (360) 385–

1733, or can be obtained directly at

either meeting.

Site Visit

For those who intend to participate in

scoping, AP&T will also conduct a site

visit to the proposed Otter Creek Project

on Tuesday, May 6, 1997. Those

attending must meet at the AP&T offices

in Skagway, Alaska, 5th and Spring

Street by 7:30 AM. We will promptly

leave for the project site, via helicopter.

Because of the remoteness and difficulty

of ground access at the proposed project

site, those attending the site visit should

be physically fit and must wear

appropriate clothing and footgear. Those

being shuttled by helicopter to the

project site may need to sign a waiver

of liability regarding helicopter use.

To plan on helicopter use in advance

of the visit, AP&T must identify the

number of individuals interested in the

site visit. Therefore, if you intend on

visiting the proposed project site, you

must first register with Mr. Stan Selmer

of AP&T in Skagway at (907) 983–2202

no later than April 18, 1997. If

inclement weather prevents a site visit

on May 6th, the alternate date will be

May 7th at the same time.

Meeting Procedures

The meetings will be conducted

according to the procedures used at

Commission scoping meetings. Because

this meeting will be a NEPA scoping

meeting under the APEA process, the

Commission will not conduct a NEPA

scoping meeting after the application

and draft EA are filed with the

Commission.

Both scoping meetings will be

recorded by a stenographer, and thus

will become a part of the formal record

of the proceedings for this project.

Those who choose not to speak during

the scoping meetings may instead

submit written comments on the project.

Written comments should be mailed to:

Mr. Glen Martin, Alaska Power and

Telephone Company, P.O. Box 222, Port

Townsend, Washington 98368. All

correspondence should show the

following caption on the first page:

Scoping Comments, Otter Creek

Hydroelectric Project, Project No.

For further information, please

contact Mr. Glen Martin at (360) 385–

Commission at (202) 219–2831.
