the project exemptee, failed to complete construction of the project 
within the required time frame. Under article 3 of the exemption, the 
Commission has the authority to revoke the exemption should the 
exemptee fail to complete project construction within the required time 
frame. In the environmental assessment (EA), staff concludes that 
revocation of the project would not constitute a major Federal action 
significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. The 
Bannister Mill Project is located on Sewall Brook near the town of 
Boylston in Worcester County, Massachusetts.
    The EA was written by staff in the Office of Hydropower Licensing, 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Copies of the EA are available 
for review at the Commission's Reference and Information Center, Room 
2-A, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
