[Federal Register Volume 61, Number 106 (Friday, May 31, 1996)] [Notices] [Page 27346] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 96-13637] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY [Project No. 10856 Michigan] Upper Peninsula Power Company; Notice of Availability of Draft Environmental Assessment May 24, 1996. In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission's) regulations, 18 CFR Part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 F.R. 47897), the Office of Hydropower Licensing has reviewed the application for an original license for the Au Train Hydroelectric Project, located near the towns of Au Train and Munising, Michigan in Alger County, and has prepared a Draft Environmental Assessment (DEA) for the project. In the DEA, the Commission's staff has analyzed the potential environmental impacts of the un-licensed, existing project and has concluded that approval of the project, with appropriate environmental protection or enhancement measures, would not constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. Copies of the DEA 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. Any comments should be filed within 45 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. Please affix ``Au Train Hydroelectric Project No. 10856'' to all comments. For further information, please contact John Blair at (202) 219-2845. Lois D. Cashell, Secretary. [FR Doc. 96-13637 Filed 5-30-96; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 6717-01-M
