In accordance with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and

Commission’s (Commission) 

regulations, 18 CFR part 380, the Office 

of Energy Projects has reviewed the 

application for a new license to 

continue to operate and maintain the 

Byllesby-Buck Hydroelectric Project 

(Byllesby-Buck Project). The ByllesbyBuck Project is located on the New 

River, in Carroll County, Virginia. 

The environmental assessment (EA) 

contains 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 (https://www.ferc.gov/),
