Portland General Electric Company; Notice of Availability of 
Environmental Assessment

October 29, 2007.
    An environmental assessment (EA) is available for public review. 
The EA was prepared for an application filed by Portland General 
Electric Company (licensee) on December 29, 2006, and supplemented on 
February 26, 2007, requesting Commission approval of an amendment of 
license to increase the height of temporary flashboards on the concrete 
dam along the crest of Willamette Falls from 2.0 feet to 3.5 feet, in 
addition to other modifications, at the Willamette Falls Hydroelectric 
Project. The project is located on the Willamette River near the cities 
of West Linn and Oregon City in Clackamas County, Oregon. The project 
does not occupy any federal lands.
    The EA evaluates the environmental impacts that would result from 
approving the licensee's proposed increase in flashboard height and 
installation of temporary adult lamprey passage structures. The EA 
finds that approval of the amendment application, combined with 
Commission modifications, would not constitute a major federal action 
significantly affecting the quality of the human environment.
    A copy of the EA is attached to a Commission order titled ``Order 
Amending License,'' issued October 29, 2007, and is available for 
review in the Commission's Public Reference Room. A copy of 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-2233) in the 
docket number field to access the document. For assistance, contact 
FERC Online Support at FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or toll-free at 1-
866-208-3676, or for TTY, (202) 502-8659.

Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
