Eugene Water and Electric Board; Notice of Availability of 
Environmental Assessment

November 5, 2009.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's regulations, 18 CFR part 
380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47879) the Commission has reviewed an 
application filed by Eugene Water and Electric Board (licensee) on 
December 24, 2008, and supplemented on January 27 and April 1, 2009, 
requesting Commission approval to construct a new boat launch at the 
Leaburg-Walterville Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 2496). The proposed 
boat launch would be located at the project's Leaburg Development, 
along Leaburg Lake, near the Goodpasture covered bridge.
    The Commission has prepared an environmental assessment (EA) that 
evaluates the environmental impacts of the licensee's proposal. The EA 
finds that approval of the application would not constitute a major 
federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human 
environment.
    The EA is attached to a Commission order titled ``Order Approving 
Amendment to Recreation Plan Pursuant to Article 432'', issued October 
30, 2009, and is available for review and reproduction at the 
Commission's Public Reference Room, located at 888 First Street, NE., 
Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426. 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-2496) excluding the last three digits 
in the docket number field to access the document. For assistance, 
contact FERC Online Support at FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or toll-free 
at 1-866-208-3372, or for TTY, (202) 502-8659.

Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
