Applegate Dam; Notice of Availability of Final Environmental 
Assessment

May 2, 2008.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) regulations, 18 
CFR Part

[[Page 26390]]

380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), Office of Energy Projects staff have 
reviewed Symbiotics, LLC's application for the proposed Applegate Dam 
Project and prepared this final environmental assessment (FEA). The 
proposed project would be located at the existing U.S. Army Corps of 
Engineers' (Corps) Applegate dam located at river mile 45.7 on the 
Applegate River, near the town of Medford, in Jackson County, Oregon. 
The proposed project facilities would occupy 7.1 acres of federal land 
administered by the Corps below and adjacent to the dam. In addition, 
the project boundary would include 2.32 acres of National Forest System 
land and 0.66 acre of U.S. Bureau of Land Management land.
    This FEA contains the Commission staff's analysis of the potential 
future environmental effects of the project. Staff has concluded that 
licensing the project, with appropriate environmental protective 
measures, would not constitute a major federal action that would 
significantly affect the quality of the human environment.
    A copy of the FEA is available for review at the Commission in the 
Public Reference Room or may be viewed on the Commission's Web site at 
http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket
