DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 2985-006]

 
Onyx Specialty Papers, Inc.; Notice of Availability of Draft 
Environmental Assessment

February 2, 2010.
    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 47897), the Office of Energy Projects has 
reviewed the application for a subsequent license for the 100-kilowatt 
Willow Mill Hydroelectric Project, located on the Housatonic River, in 
the Town of Lee, Berkshire County, Massachusetts, and has prepared an 
Draft Environmental Assessment (DEA). In the DEA, Commission staff 
analyze the potential environmental effects of relicensing the project 
and conclude that issuing a subsequent 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 DEA is on file with the Commission and is available 
for public inspection. The DEA may also be viewed on the Commission's 
Web site at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the 
docket number excluding the last three digits in the docket number 
field to access documents. For assistance, contact FERC Online Support 
at FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or toll-free at 1-866-208-3676, or for 
TTY, (202) 502-8659.
    You may also register online at http://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/
esubscription.asp to be notified via e-mail of new filings and 
issuances related to this or other pending projects. For assistance,

    Comments on the DEA should be filed within 30 days from the 
issuance date of this notice, and should be addressed to the Secretary, 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Room 1-A, 
Washington, DC 20426. Please affix ``Willow Mill Project No. 2985-006''

lieu of paper. The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings.
