DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 2459-279]
Lake Lynn Generation, 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)
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 Lake Lynn Hydroelectric Project No. 2459 (project). The
51.2-megawatt project is located on the Cheat River, near the City of
Morgantown, in Monongalia County, West Virginia, and near the Borough
of Point Marion, in Fayette County, Pennsylvania. Commission staff has
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-019-20-000-1740488411.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The EA contains the staff's analysis of the potential environmental
effects of the project and concludes that relicensing 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

field, to access the document. For assistance, contact FERC Online
