[Project No. 2232–413 South Carolina]

Duke Energy Corporation; Notice of

Availability of Environmental

Assessment

February 14, 2001.

An environmental assessment (EA) is

available for public review. The EA

analyzes the environmental impacts of

Duke Energy Corporation’s (Duke)

application to grant a non-project use of

project land to City of York (York) to

install a pipeline and intake, for raw

water withdraw in Lake Wylie, a

reservoir for the Catawba-Wateree

Hydroelectric Project. Duke’s proposed

grant would also allow York to

withdraw up to 6 million gallons of

water per day from Lake Wylie. The

Catawba-Wateree Project is on the

Catawba River in Lancaster, York, and

Fairfield Counties, South Carolina, and

Gaston, Lincoln, and Burke Counties,

North Carolina.

The EA was written by staff in the

Office of Energy Projects, Federal

Energy Regulatory Commission. In the

EA, Commission staff conclude that

approving Duke’s application to grant

the use would not constitute a major

federal action significantly affecting the

quality of the human environment.

Copies of the EA can be viewed on the

web at www.ferc.fed.us/online/

rims.htm. Call (202) 208–2222 for

assistance. Copies are also available for

inspection and reproduction at the

Commission’s Public Reference Room,

located at 888 First Street, NE., Room
