Penobscot River Restoration Trust; 

Notice of Availability of Final 

Environmental Assessment 

May 18, 2010. 

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 47879) the 

Office of Energy Projects has prepared 

an Final Environmental Assessment 

(FEA) for an application filed by the 

Penobscot River Restoration Trust 

(licensee) on November 7, 2008, 

requesting Commission approval to 

surrender the project licenses for the 

Veazie, Great Works, and Howland 

Hydroelectric Projects, located on the 

Penobscot and Piscataquis Rivers in 

Penobscot County, Maine. The licensee 

proposes to surrender the project 

licenses and remove the Veazie and 

Great Works Dams, and construct a 

nature-like fish bypass around the 

Howland Dam. Surrender of the 

projects’ licenses is a component of the 

Lower Penobscot River Basin 

Comprehensive Settlement Agreement. 

The FEA evaluates the environmental 

impacts that would result from 

approving the licensee’s proposed 

surrenders. The FEA finds that approval 

of the application would not constitute 

a major Federal action significantly 

affecting the quality of the human 

environment. A copy of the FEA is on 

file with the Commission and is 

available for public inspection. The FEA 

may also be viewed on the 

Commission’s Web site at http:// 

www.ferc.gov using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link.

As part of our commitment to 

ensuring the effectiveness of the 

Integrated Licensing Process (ILP), 

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 

(FERC) is undertaking a second 

effectiveness evaluation. To facilitate 

this review, FERC has contracted with 

Kearns & West to conduct the 2010 ILP 

Effectiveness Evaluation. This effort 

includes conducting interviews and 

teleconferences with a cross-section of 

stakeholders, four regional workshops, 

and a multi-stakeholder effectiveness 

technical conference in Washington, 

DC. We invite stakeholders to provide 

lessons learned from their experience as 

a participant in the ILP. 

Interviews and Teleconferences 

Over the next few weeks, members of 

Kearns & West will be conducting 

phone interviews with a number of 

representatives of agencies, tribes, nongovernmental organizations, licensees, 

Commission staff, and others involved 

in the above-identified hydropower 

licensing proceedings. Applicants in 

these proceedings have completed the 

pre-filing efforts and filed license 

applications using the ILP. Other 

participants in these or other ILP 

proceedings are encouraged to share 

their thoughts at the workshops and 

technical conference. Following the 

completion of the interviews, three 

teleconferences by sectors (i.e. 

applicants, resource agencies and tribes, 

and non-governmental organizations) 

will be held between July 19 and July 

30, 2010. 

Regional Effectiveness Workshops 

Commission staff will hold four 

regional workshops on the ILP in 

September 2010. The purpose of the 

regional workshops is to seek further 

feedback on experiences in the ILP and 

to explore ideas to better implement the 

ILP. Because of ex parte concerns, 

discussions will be limited to process 

rather than the merits of any proceeding 

before the Commission. 

FERC is exploring hosting the 

Regional Effectiveness Workshops in the 

following locations: New York, 

California, Virginia or North Carolina, 

and Washington State. 

The workshops are open to the public 

and all interested parties are invited to 

attend and participate. Meeting details 

and logistics will be noticed and posted 

on the Commission’s Web page and 

calendar (http://www.ferc.gov/). 

Multi-Stakeholder ILP Effectiveness 

Technical Conference 

A one-day, multi-stakeholder 

technical conference will be held on 

Wednesday, November 3, 2010, from 11 

a.m. (EST) to 3 p.m., in the Commission 

Meeting Room at the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission, 888 First 

Street, NW., Washington, DC. The 

technical conference will focus on 

gathering information to evaluate the 

effectiveness of the ILP and refining 

ideas to better implement the ILP. The 

technical conference is open to the 

public and all interested parties are 

invited to attend and participate. 

We are exploring opportunities for 

remote listening, participating, and 

viewing the Technical Conference. Final 

details will be noticed and posted no 

later than October 1, 2010. 

For additional information, please 

contact David Turner at 202–502–6091 

or david.turner@ferc.gov.
