[Project No. 2744-043]

North East Wisconsin Hydro, LLC; Notice of Availability of 
Environmental Assessment

    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission or FERC) 
regulations, 18 CFR part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), the Office 
of Energy Projects has reviewed the application for a new license for 
the 4.348-megawatt Menominee and Park Mill Hydroelectric Project (FERC 
Project No. 2744-043) and has prepared a single environmental 
assessment (EA). The project consists of two developments (Menominee 
and Park Mill) located on the Menominee River in Menominee County, 
Michigan, and Marinette County, Wisconsin.
    In the EA, Commission staff analyzes the potential environmental 
effects of relicensing the project and concludes that issuing a new 
license for the project, with appropriate environmental measures, would 
not constitute a major federal action significantly affecting 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 
www.ferc.gov using the eLibrary link. Enter the docket number, 
excluding the last three digits, in the docket number field to access
