DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 13-023]


Green Island Power Authority; Notice of Availability of Draft 
Environmental Assessment

August 31, 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 47897), the Office of Energy Projects has 
reviewed the application for a new license for the 6.0-megawatt Green 
Island Hydroelectric Project, located on the Hudson River, in Albany 
County, New York, and has prepared a Draft Environmental Assessment 
(DEA). In the DEA, Commission staff analyzes the potential 
environmental effects of relicensing the project and conclude that 
issuing a new license for the project, with appropriate environmental 
measures, would not constitute a major federal action significantly 
affecting the quality of the human environment.
    A copy of the DEA is on file with the Commission and is available 
for public inspection. The DEA may also 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 access documents. For assistance, contact FERC Online Support
