DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 7242-060]
STS Hydropower, LLC; 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 CFR part 380, Commission staff reviewed STS Hydropower,
LLC's (licensee) application for surrender of license for the Kanaka
Hydroelectric Project No. 7242 and have prepared an Environmental
Assessment (EA) for the proposed surrender. Following a wildfire that
destroyed many of the project features, the licensee proposes to remove
mechanical and electrical
[[Page 68886]]
equipment, remove the powerhouse building, seal the penstock, and
regrade disturbed areas. The project dam would remain in place. The
project is located on Sucker Run Creek, in Butte County, California.
The project does not occupy federal lands.
The EA contains Commission staff's analysis of the potential
environmental effects of the proposed surrender, alternatives to the
proposed action, and concludes that the proposed surrender, with
appropriate environmental protective measures, would not constitute a
major federal action that would significantly affect the quality of the
human environment.
The EA 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-
7242) in the docket number field to access the document. For
