DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project Nos. 2146-126]

 
Alabama Power Company; Notice of Availability of Environmental 
Assessment

August 24, 2010.
    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 Alabama 
Power Company (licensee) for non-project use of project lands and 
waters at the Coosa River Project (FERC No. 2146). An environmental 
assessment (EA) has been prepared as part of staff's review of the 
proposal. The proposed use would be located on Logan Martin Lake in 
Talladega County, Alabama.
    In the application, the licensee proposes to issue all Shoreline 
Real Estate, LLC, to install recreational facilities for use by 
residents of the Lincoln Harbor development. The proposed facilities 
would consist of 15 floating, cluster docks accommodating a total of 
176 watercraft, one concrete boat ramp, 2 wooden boardwalks, 2 asphalt-
paved walking trails, and 2 wooden bridges. The applicant would also 
construct a paved parking lot and concrete loading pier, the majority 
of both to be located outside the project boundary. The loading pier 
will service a dry storage facility located outside of the project 
boundary. The EA contains Commission staff's analysis of the probable 
environmental impacts of the proposed action 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 attached to a Commission order titled ``Order Modifying 
and Approving Non-Project Use of Project Lands and Waters,'' which was 
issued August 24, 2010, and is available for 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-2146) in the docket number field to 
access the document. For assistance, contact FERC Online Support at

Secretary.
