Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 2277]

 
AmerenUE; Notice of Availability of Draft Environmental 
Assessment

June 7, 2007.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission or FERC) 
regulations contained in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) (18 CFR 
part 380), the Office of Energy Projects staff (staff) reviewed 
AmerenUE's request to rebuild the upper reservoir of the Taum Sauk 
Pumped Storage Project (FERC No. 2277), located on the East Fork Black 
River, in Reynolds County, Missouri, and prepared a Draft Environmental 
Assessment (DEA) for the construction project. In this DEA, staff 
analyzes the potential environmental effects of the Proposed Action and 
concludes that the proposal, with recommended mitigation measures, 
would not constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the 
quality of the human environment.
    A copy of the DEA is available for review at the Commission in the 
Public Reference Room, or it may be viewed on the Commission's Web site 
at http://www.ferc.gov using the e-Library link. Enter the docket 

number (P-2277) in the docket number field to access the document. For 
assistance, call (202) 502-8222 or (202) 502-8659 (for TTY).
    Any comments should be filed by, July 9, 2007, and should be 
addressed to Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First 
Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426. Please reference the Taum Sauk 
Project No. 2277, on all comments. For further information on this 
notice, please contact Thomas LoVullo at (202) 502-8900.
    Comments may be filed electronically via the Internet in lieu of 
paper. See 18 CFR 385.2001 (a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the
