Environmental Mailing List 

An effort is being made to send this 

notice to all individuals, organizations, 

and government entities interested in 

and/or potentially affected by the 

proposed project. This includes all 

landowners who are potential right-ofway grantors, whose property may be 

used temporarily for project purposes, 

or who own homes within distances 

defined in the Commission’s regulations 

of certain aboveground facilities. 

If you do not want to send comments 

at this time but still want to remain on 

our mailing list, please return the 

Information Request (Appendix 2). If

Becoming an Intervenor 

In addition to involvement in the EA 

scoping process, you may want to 

become an ‘‘intervenor,’’ which is an 

official party to the proceeding. 

Intervenors play a more formal role in 

the process and are able to file briefs, 

appear at hearings, and be heard by the 

courts if they choose to appeal the 

Commission’s final ruling. An 

intervenor formally participates in a 

Commission proceeding by filing a 

request to intervene. Instructions for 

becoming an intervenor are included in 

the User’s Guide under the ‘‘e-filing’’ 

link on the Commission’s Web site.

Commission 

[Project No. 12551–001–CT] 

Salvatore and Michelle Shifrin; Notice 

of Availability of Environmental 

Assessment 

March 12, 2009. 

In accordance with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and 

the Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission’s regulations, 18 CFR part 

380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47879), the 

Office of Energy Projects has reviewed 

the application for a small hydro (less 

than 5 megawatt) exemption from 

licensing for the Mansfield Hollow 

Hydro Power Project, to be located on 

the Natchaug River, in Tolland County, 

Connecticut, and has prepared an 

Environmental Assessment (EA). In the 

EA, Commission staff analyze the 

potential environmental effects of the 

project and conclude that issuing an 

exemption for the project, with 

appropriate environmental measures, 

would not constitute a major Federal 

action significantly affecting the quality 

of the human environment. 

A copy of the EA is on file with the 

Commission and is available for public 

inspection. The EA may also be viewed 

on the Commission’s Web site at http:// 

www.ferc.gov using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link. 

Enter the docket number excluding the 

last three digits in the docket number 

field to access the document. For 

assistance, contact FERC Online

Project No. 12551’’ to all comments.
