DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
[Project No. 1494-038, -051, -059; Oklahoma]
Grand River Dam Authority; Notice of Availability of
Environmental Assessment
November 3, 1994.
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 F.R. 47910), the Office of Hydropower Licensing
(OHL) reviewed three applications for non-project use of project lands
for the Pensacola Hydroelectric Project. Application number 1 proposes
excavating 4,000 cubic yards of material from the bottom of Grand Lake
O' The Cherokees, in Delaware County, Oklahoma, for the purpose of
raising a private property to the 757-foot elevation. Application
number 2 proposes excavating a 750-foot-long, 150-foot-wide area to 735
feet mean sea level, for the purpose of providing boat access from a
protected cove in Elk River area of Grand Lake O' The Cherokees, in
Delaware County, Oklahoma. Application number 3 proposes to excavate
989.87 feet of shoreline, containing approximately 12,000 cubic yards
of material, for the purpose of providing boat access to the Ketchum
Cove area of Grand Lake O' The Cherokees, in Delaware County, Oklahoma.
The staff prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) for the three
proposals. In the EA, staff concludes that approval of these non-
project uses of project lands 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 Reference and
Information Center, Room 3308, of the Commission's offices at 941 North
Capitol Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426.

Acting Secretary.
