[Project No. 1971-134]
Idaho Power Company; Notice of Intent To Prepare an Environmental
Assessment
On October 8, 2021, Idaho Power Company filed an application to
amend the license for the Hells Canyon Hydroelectric Project No. 1971
(FERC No. 1971). The Hells Canyon Project is located on the Snake River
in Adams and Washington counties, Idaho and in Wallowa, Malheur, and
Baker counties, Oregon. The project occupies federal lands administered
by the U.S. Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management (Payette
and Wallowa Whitman National Forests and Hells Canyon National
Recreational Area).
In accordance with the Commission's regulations, on November 4,
2021, Commission staff issued a notice that the application was
accepted for filing and soliticed comments, motions to intervene and
protests. Based on the information in the record, including comments
filed on the notice, staff does not anticipate that amending the
project would constitute a major federal action significantly affecting
the quality of the human environment. Therefore, staff intends to
prepare an Environmental Assessment (EA) on the application to amend
the Hells Canyon Project.
The EA will be issued and circulated for review by all interested
parties.
