part 380 [FERC Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897]), the Office of Energy 
Projects has reviewed the application for license for the Wells 
Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 2149), located on the Columbia River in 
Douglas, Okanogan, and Chelan counties, Washington, and has prepared a 
final environmental impact statement (EIS) for the project. The project 
occupies 8.60 acres of U.S. Bureau of Land Management land and 6.55 
acres of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers land.
