DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 1773-042]
Moon Lake Electric Association, Inc.; Notice of Availability of
Environmental Assessment
In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission or FERC)
regulations, 18 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 380, Commission
staff reviewed Moon Lake Electric Association, Inc.'s application to
surrender the project license of the Yellowstone Hydroelectric Project
No. 1773 and have prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA). The
licensee proposes to surrender the license for the project and
decommission the project facilities, which includes removing the
project dam, abutments, and penstock. The licensee would also restore
the reach of the Yellowstone River affected by the dam and reservoir by
using sediments to rebuild the channel, and reclaim upland areas
disturbed. The project is located on the Yellowstone River in Duchesne
County, Utah, within the Ashley National Forest, administered by the
U.S. Department of Agriculture's Forest Service, and within the Uintah
and Ouray Reservations.
The EA contains Commission staff's analysis of the potential
environmental effects of the proposed surrender of the project license,
and concludes that, with appropriate environmental protective measures,
it would not constitute a major federal action that would significantly
affect the quality of the human environment.
The Commission provides all interested persons with an opportunity
to view and/or print the EA via the internet through the Commission's
Home Page (<a href="http://www.ferc.gov">http://www.ferc.gov</a>) using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the
