[Project No. 1403-068]
Yuba County Water Agency; Notice of Intent To Prepare an
Environmental Assessment
On November 14, 2023, Yuba County Water Agency (YCWA) filed an
application to relicense the 12-megawatt Narrows Hydroelectric Project
No. 1403. The project is located on the Yuba River, near the City of
Marysville, in Nevada County, California.
In accordance with the Commission's regulations, on February 26,
2025, 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 an environmental assessment (EA) on
the application to relicense the project.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ For tracking purposes under the National Environmental
Policy Act, the unique identification number for documents relating
to this environmental review is EAXX-019-20-000-1747040730.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 Commission's Office of Public Participation (OPP) supports
meaningful public engagement and participation in Commission
proceedings. OPP can help members of the public, including landowners,
community organizations, Tribal members, and others to access publicly
available information and navigate Commission processes. For public
inquiries and assistance with making filings such as interventions,
comments, or requests for rehearing, the public is encouraged to
