[Project No. 2187-046]
Public Service Company of Colorado; 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 Public Service
Company of Colorado's (PSCo or licensee) application for amendment of
license for the Georgetown Project (No. 2187) and have prepared an
Environmental Assessment (EA).\1\ The licensee is constructing a
temporary stream bypass pipeline to divert up to 200 cubic feet per
second (cfs) from South Clear Creek around the Forebay Reservoir and
Dam, ultimately discharging just downstream of the dam. The bypass
pipeline is intended to address dam safety and water quality concerns
and support water management efforts. The action would alter how
required minimum flows are transported and discharged. The project is
located on South Clear Creek near Georgetown, Clear Creek County,
Colorado. A portion of the project is located on federal lands
administered by the U.S. Forest Service (Forest Service), within the
Arapaho National Forest.

\1\ The unique identification number for documents relating to
this environmental review is EAXX-019-20-000-1752151774.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The EA contains Commission staff's analysis of the potential
environmental effects of relocating the minimum flow discharge area,
with appropriate environmental protective measures, would not
constitute a major federal action that would significantly affect the
quality of the human environment.
