DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 4451-024]


Green Mountain Power Corporation, City of Somersworth, New 
Hampshire; Notice of Availability of 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 relicense application for the Lower Great Falls 
Hydroelectric Project No. 4451, located on the Salmon Falls River in 
Strafford County, New Hampshire and York County, Maine, and has 
prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) for the project. No federal 
land would be occupied by the project.
    The EA contains staff's analysis of the potential environmental 
effects 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 number of pages in the EA exceeds the page limits set forth in 
the Council on Environmental Quality's July 16, 2020 final rule, Update 
to the Regulations Implementing the Procedural Provisions of the 
National Environmental Policy Act (85 FR 43304). Noting the scope and 
complexity of the proposed action and action alternatives, the Director 
of the Office of Energy Projects, as our senior agency official, has 
authorized this page limit exceedance for the EA.
    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. For assistance, contact FERC Online
