DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 405-111]


Exelon Generation Company, LLC; 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 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), the Office 
of Energy Projects has reviewed an application submitted by Exelon 
Generation Company, LLC (licensee) to allow Old Dominion Electric 
Cooperative (permittee) the use of the Conowingo Project lands and 
waters for the withdrawal and discharge of water. The project is 
located on the Susquehanna River near Lancaster, Pennsylvania, in 
Hartford and Cecil Counties, Maryland and in York and Lancaster 
Counties, Pennsylvania.
    An environmental assessment (EA) has been prepared as part of 
staff's review of the proposal. In the application, the licensee 
proposes to allow ODEC to withdraw up to 8.7 million gallons per day 
(mgd) and to discharge return water not to exceed 0.8 mgd, resulting in 
a total maximum consumptive use of 7.9 mgd of water in order to support 
a 1,000 megawatt electric power generating plant that would be known as 
the Wildcat Point Generation Facility, located in Cecil County, 
Maryland. This EA contains Commission staff's analysis of the probable 
environmental impacts of the proposed withdraw and discharge of water 
and concludes that approval of the proposal would not constitute a 
major federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human 
environment.
    The EA is available for electronic review and reproduction at the 
Commission's Public Reference Room, located at 888 First Street NE., 
Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426. The EA may also be viewed on the 
Commission's Web site at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' 
link. Enter the docket number (P-405) in the docket number field to 
access the document. For assistance, contact FERC Online Support at

Commission, 888 First Street NE., Room 1-A, Washington, DC 20426.
