DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 3342-025]
Briar Hydro Associates; Notice of Availability of 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, the Office of Energy Projects has
reviewed the application for a new license to continue to operate and
maintain the Penacook Lower Falls Hydroelectric Project No. 3342. The
project is located on the Contoocook River in Merrimack County, New
Hampshire. Commission staff have prepared an Environmental Assessment
(EA) for 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-019-20-000-1729248238.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The EA contains staff analysis of the potential environmental
impacts of the project and concludes that licensing the project, with
appropriate environmental protective measures, 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 docket number, excluding the last three digits in the docket number
field, to access the document. For assistance, contact FERC Online
