[Project No. 9988-015]

 
Augusta Canal Authority; Notice of Availability of Environmental 
Assessment

January 6, 2009.
    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 subsequent license for the 2.125-
megawatt King Mill Project, located on the Augusta Canal in

[[Page 1210]]

Richmond County, Augusta, Georgia, and issued an Environmental 
Assessment (EA) on December 11, 2008. In the EA, Commission staff 
analyze the potential environmental effects of relicensing the project 
and conclude that issuing a subsequent 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 EA is on file with the Commission and is available 
for public inspection. 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 excluding the last three digits in the docket number 
field to access documents. For assistance, contact FERC Online Support

    Comments on the EA should be filed within 30 days from the issuance 
date of this notice, and should be addressed to the Secretary, Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Room 1-A, 
Washington, DC 20426. Please affix King Mill Project No. 9988-015 to
