Southern California Edison Company; Notice of Availability of 
Draft Environmental Assessment

July 31, 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.

[[Page 42250]]

486, 52 FR 47897), the Office of Hydropower Licensing has reviewed the 
application for a new license for the existing Kern River No. 1 
Project, and has prepared a Draft Environmental Assessment (DEA) for 
the project. The project is located near Bakersfield, in Kern County, 
California. The DEA contains the staff's analysis of the potential 
environmental impacts of the project and has concluded that licensing 
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 DEA are available for review in the Public Reference 
Room at 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 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, N.E., Washington, D.C. 
20426. For further information, contact David Turner, Environmental 
Coordinator, at [phone].
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
