Wisconsin Power & Light Comp.; Availability Of Environmental 
Assessment

May 17, 1994.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) 
regulations, 18 CFR part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), the Office 
of Hydropower Licensing has reviewed the application for a subsequent 
license for the existing Beloit Blackhawk Hydroelectric Project, 
located on the Rock River in Rock County, Wisconsin, in the city of 
Beloit, and has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) for the 
project.
    On March 10, 1994, staff issued and distributed to all parties a 
draft EA, and requested that comments on the draft EA be filed with the 
Commission within 30 days. One comment letter was received for the 
draft EA and is addressed in the final EA.
    In the EA, the Commission's staff has analyzed the existing and 
potential future environmental impacts of the project and has concluded 
that approval of the project, with appropriate environmental protective 
or enhancement measures, would not constitute a major federal action 
that would significantly affect quality of the human environment.
    Copies of the EA are available for review in the Public Reference 
Branch, room 3104, of the Commission's offices at 941 North Capitol 
Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
