[Project No. 2354-152]

Georgia Power Company; Notice of Availability of Environmental 
Assessment

    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) 
regulations, 18 CFR part 380, the Office of Energy Projects has 
reviewed the application for a non-capacity amendment of license for 
the North Georgia Project and has prepared an Environmental Assessment 
(EA). The licensee proposes to amend the license to replace and upgrade 
four generating units in the Tugalo powerhouse. The licensee proposes 
at the Tugalo Development to: remove all turbine

components to refurbish and upgrade, replace the existing generators, 
replace control panels and instrumentation in the control room, balance 
plant electrical and mechanical systems, upgrade the cooling system, 
and replace the spillway gates and trash racks. The project is located 
in the Savannah River basin on the Tallulah, Chattooga, and Tugalo 
rivers, in Rabun, Habersham, and Stephens counties, Georgia, and Oconee 
County, South Carolina. The project does not occupy federal lands.
    The EA contains Commission staff's analysis of the potential 
environmental effects of the proposed amendment and concludes that, it 
would not constitute a major federal action that would significantly 
affect the quality of the human environment.
