DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 2997-031]
South Sutter Water District; Notice of Intent To Prepare an
Environmental Assessment
On July 1, 2019, South Sutter Water District filed an application
for a major, new license for the 6.8-megawatt Camp Far West
Hydroelectric Project (Camp Far West Project; FERC No. 2997). The Camp
Far West Project is located on the Bear River in Yuba, Nevada, and
Placer Counties, California. No federal or tribal lands occur within or
adjacent to the project boundary or along the Bear River downstream of
the project.
In accordance with the Commission's regulations, on March 16, 2021,
Commission staff issued a notice that the project was ready for
environmental analysis (REA Notice). Based on the information in the
record, including comments filed on the REA Notice, staff does not
anticipate that licensing the project would constitute a major federal
action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment.
Therefore, staff intends to prepare a draft and final Environmental
Assessment (EA) on the
[[Page 44017]]
application to relicense the Camp Far West Project.
The EA will be issued and circulated for review by all interested
parties. All comments filed on the EA will be analyzed by staff and
considered in the Commission's final licensing decision.
The application will be processed according to the following
schedule. Revisions to the schedule may be made as appropriate.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ The Council on Environmental Quality's (CEQ) regulations
under 40 CFR 1501.10(b)(1) require that EAs be completed within 1
year of the federal action agency's decision to prepare an EA. This
notice establishes the Commission's intent to prepare a draft and
final EA for the Camp Far West Project. Therefore, in accordance
with CEQ's regulations, the final EA must be issued within 1 year of
the issuance date of this notice.
