DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 12478-003]

Gibson Dam Hydroelectric Company, LLC, Montana; Notice of 
Availability of Final Environmental Assessment

    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 FR 47897), the Office 
of Energy Projects has reviewed the application for license for the 
Gibson Dam Hydroelectric Project, located at the U.S. Department of the 
Interior, Bureau of Reclamation's Gibson dam on the Sun River in Lewis 
and Clark and Teton Counties, Montana, and has prepared a final 
environmental assessment (EA) for the project. The project would occupy 
a total of 68.5 acres of federal lands.
    The final EA contains staff's analysis of the potential 
environmental impacts of the project and concludes that licensing the 
project, with appropriate environmental protective measures, would not 
constitute a major federal action that would significantly affect the 
quality of the human environment.
    A copy of the final EA is available for review at the Commission in 
the Public Reference Room or may 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
