DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 2069-003, Arizona]
Arizona Public Service Company; Notice of Availability of Draft
Environmental Assessment
August 14, 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 FR 47897), the Office
of Hydropower Licensing has reviewed the application for relicense for
the major, constructed Childs Irving Hydroelectric Project. The project
is located on Fossil Creek, in Yavapai and Gila counties, Arizona. The
Commission staff has prepared a Draft Environmental Assessment (DEA) on
the project. The DEA contains the staff's analysis of the environmental
impacts of the project and has concluded that relicensing the project,
with appropriate environmental enhancement measures, would not
constitute a major federal action that would significantly affect the
quality of the human environment.
Copies of the DEA are available for review in the Public Reference
Room, Room 2A, of the Commission's offices at 888 First Street, NE.,
Washington, DC 20426.
Any comments should be filed within 30 days from the date of this
notice and should be addressed to Lois D. Cashell, Secretary, Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC
20426. For further information, contact Dianne Rodman, Environmental
Coordinator, at (202) 219-2830.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
