and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission's) 
regulations, 18 CFR Part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 F.R. 47897), the Office 
of Hydropower Licensing has reviewed the application for an original 
license for the existing unlicensed Eustis Hydroelectric Project, 
located in Franklin County, Maine, and has prepared a Final 
Environmental Assessment (FEA) for the project. In the FEA, the 
Commission's staff has analyzed the potential environmental impacts of 
the existing project and has concluded that approval of the project, 
with appropriate environmental protection measures, would not 
constitute a major federal action
