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 47910), the

Office of Hydropower Licensing (OHL)

has reviewed the application for the

lease of 117 acres of project lands for the

development of a county park (Saluda

Shoals Park) on the Saluda River below

the dam at Lake Murray. The park

would provide multi-use, land-based

recreation facilities and would be

operated by the Irmo-Chapin Recreation

Commission.

The staff of OHL’s Division of Project

Compliance and Administration has

prepared an Environmental Assessment

(EA) for the proposed action. In the EA,

the staff concludes that the licensee’s

proposals would not constitute a major

federal action significantly affecting the

quality of the human environment.

Copies of the EA are available for

review in the Reference and Information

Center, Room 3308, of the Commission’s

Offices at 941 North Capitol Street, N.E.,

NGT proposes to construct one 1-inch

tap, valve setting and 1-inch regulator

on NGT’s Line 638 in Coal County,

Oklahoma. NGT states that Arkla would

install a meter and second cut regulator

to provide service to a rural residential

customer. The estimated volumes to be

day, it is indicated. NGT states that NGT

would transport natural gas service to

Arkla within Arkla’s entitlements under

NGT’s tariffs. NGT states that the

establishment of this delivery point is

not prohibited by NGT’s existing tariff

and NGT has sufficient capacity to

accomplish deliveries at this new

delivery point without detriment or

disadvantage to NGT’s other customers.

NGT states that the estimated cost to

install these facilities is $1,800, which

would be reimbursed by Arkla.

Any person or the Commission’s staff

within 30 days after the time allowed

for filing a protest, the instant request

shall be treated as an application for

authorization pursuant to Section 7 of
