Hydrodynamics Inc.; Notice of Availability of Environmental 
Assessment

December 19, 2008.
    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 the applications for original license 
for the proposed Greenfield Hydroelectric Project No. 12548-002, Woods 
Hydroelectric Project No. 12540-002, A-Drop Hydroelectric Project No. 
12549-002, and Johnson Hydroelectric Project No. 12545-002, located on 
the Greenfields Main Canal and Greenfields South Canal in Teton and 
Cascade counties, Montana, and has prepared an Environmental Assessment 
(EA) for the projects. The projects would be located on private lands 
over which the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation holds a dominant easement.
    The EA contains the staff's analysis of the potential environmental 
impacts of the projects and concludes that licensing the projects, 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 EA 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 
numbers, excluding the last three digits in the docket number field, to

    You may also register online at http://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/

issuances related to these or other pending projects. For assistance,

    Any comments should be filed within 30 days from the date of this 
notice and should be addressed to: Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary, Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 
20426. Please affix Project Nos. 12548-002, 12540-002, 12549-002, and 
12545-002 to all comments. Comments may be filed electronically via the 
Internet in lieu of paper. The Commission strongly encourages
