Pacific Gas & Electric Company; Notice of Availability of Final 
Environmental Assessment

February 19, 2010.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, 
as amended, and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) 
regulations (18 CFR Part 380), Commission staff has prepared a Final 
Environmental Assessment (FEA) regarding Pacific Gas & Electric 
Company's (PG&E) proposal to perform seismic remediation work at Crane 
Valley Dam, part of the Crane Valley Hydroelectric Project. The project 
occupies approximately 738 acres of federal lands within Sierra 
National Forest, approximately 40 miles northeast of the city of Fresno 
in Modesto County, California. Crane Valley Dam is located on North 
Fork Willow Creek, in the San Joaquin River Basin. The FEA analyzes the 
environmental effects of the seismic remediation proposal, PG&E's 
resource protection and mitigation plans, and recommends further 
measures to minimize any environmental effects. The FEA concludes that 
the proposed seismic remediation and resource plans, with the 
recommended measures, would not constitute a major federal action 
significantly affecting the quality of the human environment.
    A copy of the FEA is available for review at the Commission's 
Public Reference Room, or it may be viewed on the Commission's Web site 
at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket 
number (P-1354) in the docket number field to access the document. For 
assistance, call (202) 502-8222, or (202) 502-8659 (for TTY).
    For further information on this notice, please contact B. Peter 
Yarrington at (202) 502-6129.

Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
