impact floodplain areas in Hamilton

County, Ohio. In accordance with 10

CFR part 1022, DOE will prepare a

floodplain assessment and will perform

this proposed removal action in such a

manner to avoid or minimize potential

harm to or within floodplain areas.

DATES: Written comments must be

received by the DOE at the following

address no later than April 28, 1995.

ADDRESSES: For further information on

this proposed action, contact: Mr. Wally

Quaider, Acting Associate Director,

Office of Safety & Assessment, U.S.

Department of Energy, Fernald Area

Office, P.O. Box 538705, Cincinnati,

Ohio 45253–8705, Phone: (513) 648–

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For

further information on general DOE

Floodplain/Wetlands environmental

review requirements, contact: Ms. Carol

Borgstrom, Director, Office of NEPA

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Removal

Action No. 30, which consists of

removing contaminated sediments in

the low area in the southeast corner of

the South Field and constructing a

seepage collection system to prevent

leaching and infiltration of

contaminants to the Great Miami

Aquifer, could affect the 100- and 500-

year floodplain of Paddys Run. Potential

indirect impacts to the 100- and 500-

year floodplain as a result of the

removal activities include surface water

runoff and sedimentation loading into

the floodplain. Direct physical impact to

the floodplain could result in the shortterm from the operation of heavy

equipment during excavation of

contaminated sediments and

construction of a sump/pump station

and portion of a discharge line within

the floodplain. However, engineering

controls would be implemented during

excavation and construction activities to

minimize any impacts. Minimal or no

permanent change in flood elevations

would occur in the long-term.

In accordance with DOE regulations

for compliance with floodplain/

wetlands environmental review

requirements (10 CFR part 1022), DOE

will prepare a floodplain assessment for

this proposed DOE action. The

assessment will be included in the Work

Plan being prepared for Removal Action

No. 30. A Notice of Floodplain

Statement of Findings will be issued

separately and published in the Federal

Register.

Issued in Miamisburg, Ohio on March 29,

Public Service Company of Colorado;

Notice of Availability of Draft

Environmental Assessment

April 7, 1995.

In accordance with the National

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and

the Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission’s (Commission’s)

Regulations, 18 CFR Part 380 (Order No.

486, 52 FR 47897), the Office of

Hydropower Licensing has reviewed the

application for a new license for the

existing Salida Hydroelectric Project,

located on the South Arkansas River

and on Fooses Creek in Chaffee County,

Colorado, near Poncha Springs. The

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

and the U.S. Forest Service have

prepared a Draft Environmental

Assessment (DEA) for the relicense

proposal.

In the DEA, the staff has analyzed the

environmental impacts of the project

and has concluded that relicensing the

project, with appropriate environmental

measures, would not constitute a major

federal action that would significantly

affect the quality of the human

environment. Copies of the DEA are

available for review in the Public

Reference Branch, Room 3104, of the

Commission’s offices at 941 North

Capitol Street NE., Washington, DC

20426.

Any comments should be filed within

45 days from the date of this notice and

should be addressed to Lois D. Cashell,

Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission, 825 North Capitol Street,

NE., Washington, DC 20426. Please affix

Project No. 275–001 to all comments.

For further information, please contact

Vince Yearick, Environmental

Coordinator, at (202) 219–3073.
