DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 553-238]
City of Seattle, Washington; Notice of Availability of Final
Environmental Assessment
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 Energy Projects has reviewed an application submitted by the City of
Seattle, Washington to construct a replacement fuel dock and associated
infrastructure at Diablo Lake at the Skagit River Project No. 553. The
Skagit River Project is located on the Skagit River in Snohomish,
Skagit, and Whatcom counties, Washington. The project occupies a
portion of the Ross Lake National Recreation Area administered by the
U.S. National Park Service and the Mount Baker National Forest
administered by the U.S. Forest Service.
A Final Environmental Assessment (FEA) has been prepared as part of
staff's review of the proposal.\1\ The FEA contains the Commission
staff's analysis of the probable environmental effects of the proposed
action and concludes that approval of the proposal, with Commission
staff's recommended measures, would not constitute a major federal
action that would significantly affect the quality of the human
environment.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ On July 16, 2020, the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ)
issued a final rule, Update to the Regulations Implementing the
Procedural Provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act
(Final Rule, 85 FR 43,304), which was effective as of September 14,
2020; however, the NEPA review of this project was in process at
that time and was prepared pursuant to CEQ's 1978 NEPA regulations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The FEA may be viewed on the Commission's website at <a href="http://www.ferc.gov">http://www.ferc.gov</a> using the ``elibrary'' link. Enter the docket number (P-
553) in the docket number field to access the document. At this time,

President on March 13, 2020. For assistance, contact FERC Online
