DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 2211-004]


Duke Energy Indiana, Inc.; Indiana; Notice of Availability of 
Environmental Assessment

May 21, 2010.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) 
regulations, 18 CFR part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), the Office 
of Energy Projects has reviewed the application for a new license for 
the Markland Hydroelectric Project, located at the U.S. Army Corps of 
Engineers' (Corps) existing Markland Locks and Dam on the Ohio River in 
Switzerland County, Indiana, and has prepared an Environmental 
Assessment (EA) for the project. Parts of the project occupy 6.21 acres 
of federal land administered by the Corps; Duke Energy Indiana, Inc. 
proposes changing the project boundary to include a total of 10.2 acres 
of federal land to accommodate new and existing project facilities.
    The EA contains the staff's analysis of the potential environmental 
impacts of continued operation and maintenance of the project and 
concludes that relicensing the project, with appropriate environmental 
protective measures, would not constitute a major federal action that 
would significantly affect the quality of the human environment.
    A copy of the EA is available for review at the Commission in the 
Public Reference Room or may 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
