Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 11433-016]

 
Madison Electric Works; Notice of Availability of Environmental 
Assessment

May 2, 2006.
    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 F.R. 47897), the Office 
of Energy Projects has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) for an 
application requesting Commission approval for surrender of minor 
project license and dam removal of the 547 kilowatt Sandy River Project 
(FERC No. 11433). The project is located on the Sandy River in the 
Towns of Norridgewock and Starks, Somerset County, Maine.
    The EA contains the staff's analysis of the potential environmental 
impacts of the project and concludes that the surrender of license and 
dam removal would not constitute a major federal action that would 
significantly affect the quality of the human environment.
    A copy of the EA is attached to the May 1, 2006 Commission Order 
titled ``Order Approving Surrender of License with Dam Removal,'' which 
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 (prefaced by P-) in the docket number field to access the 
document. For assistance, contact FERC On Line Support at 
FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or call toll free at (866) 208-3676, or for 

TTY contact (202) 502-8659.
    For further information, please contact Andrea Shriver at (202)
