Commission 

[Project No. 4784–106] 

Topsham Hydro Partners Limited 

Partnership (L.P.); Notice of 

Availability of Draft 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 license for the Pejepscot 

Hydroelectric Project, located on the 

Androscoggin River in Sagadahoc, 

Cumberland, and Androscoggin 

Counties in the village of Pejepscot and 

the town of Topsham, Maine and has 

prepared a Draft Environmental 

Assessment (DEA) for the project. No 

federal land is occupied by project 

works or located within the project 

boundary. 

The DEA 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 (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. At this time, the Commission 

has suspended access to the 

Commission’s Public Reference Room, 

due to the proclamation declaring a 

National Emergency concerning the 

Novel Coronavirus Disease (COVID–19), 

issued by the President on March 13, 

2020. For assistance, contact FERC

no ground disturbing activity or in 

water work necessary. A single turbine
