William B. Ruger, Jr.; Notice of Availability of Draft
Environmental Assessment
October 31, 1995.
A draft environmental assessment (DEA) is available for public
review. The DEA reviewed the application for amendment for the Sugar
River II Project (FERC No. 10934). The application proposes to shorten
the bypass reach of the Sugar River by 650 feet by relocating the
proposed dam in a downstream direction and replacing an open canal with
a seven-foot-diameter buried steel penstock. The DEA finds that
approval of the amendment application would not constitute a major
federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human
environment. The Sugar River II Project is located on the Sugar River,
in Sullivan County, in Newport, New Hampshire.
The DEA was prepared by staff in the Office of Hydropower
Licensing, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Copies of the DEA can
be viewed at the Commission's Reference and Information Center, Room
2A, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20406. Copies can also be
obtained by calling the project manager listed below.
Please submit any comments within 30 days from the date of this
notice. Any comments, conclusions, or recommendations that draw upon
studies, reports, or other working papers of substance should be
supported by appropriate documentation.
Comments should be addressed to Lois D. Cashell, Secretary, Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C.
20406. Please denote ``Comments: Project No. 10934-003'' on all
comments. For more information, please contact the project manager,
Joseph C. Adamson, at (202) 219-1040.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
