Granite County, MT; Notice of Availability of Environmental 
Assessment

February 6, 1998.
    An environmental assessment (EA) is available for public review. 
The EA is for an application to surrender the license for the Flint 
Creek Project, located on Flint Creek near the town of Philipsburg, in 
Granite and Deer Lodge Counties, Montana.
    The EA evaluates the environmental impacts that would result from 
the continued operation of the Flint Creek Dam and Georgetown Lake, and 
the retention of all existing hydropower facilities at the site. The EA 
finds that approval of the application would not constitute a major 
federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human 
environment.
    The EA was written by staff in the Office of Hydropower Licensing, 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Copies of the EA can be viewed at 
the Commission's Reference and Information Center, Room 2A, 888 First 
Street, N.E., Washington, DC 20426. Copies also may be obtained by 
calling the project manager, Regina Saizan, at [phone].
David P. Boergers,
Acting Secretary.
