City of Abbeville; Notice of Availability of Environmental 
Assessment

October 28, 1997.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
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 major license 
for the proposed Abbeville Project located on the Rocky River in 
Abbeville and Anderson counties, near Abbeville, South Carolina, and 
has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) for the proposed project. 
In the EA, the Commission's staff has analyzed the potential 
environmental impacts of the proposed project and has concluded that 
approval of the proposed project, with appropriate mitigative measures, 
would not constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the 
quality of the human environment.
    Copies of the EA are available for review in the Public Reference 
Branch, of the Commission's offices at 888 First Street, N.E., 
Washington, D.C. 20426.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
