Monroe City Corporation; Notice of Availability of Final 
Environmental Assessment

August 8, 1997.
    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 F.R. 47897), the Office 
of Hydroelectric Licensing has reviewed the application for a new 
license for the existing Upper Monroe Hydroelectric Project, and has 
prepared a Final

Environmental Assessment (FEA) for the project. The project, which is 
located near Monroe City, in Sevier, County, Utah, diverts water from 
three tributaries of Monroe Creek: Shingle Creek, First Lefthand Fork 
of Monroe Creek, and Serviceberry Creek.
    In the FEA, the Commission's staff has analyzed the potential 
environmental impacts of the project and has concluded that approval of 
the project, with appropriate environmental protective measures, would 
not constitute a major federal action that would significantly affect 
the quality of the human environment.
    Copies of the FEA are available for review in the Public Reference 
Branch, Room 2A, of the Commission's offices at 888 First Street, N.E., 
Washington, D.C. 20426.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
