Yuba County Water Agency; 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 Narrows Hydroelectric Project No. 1403. The existing 12-
megawatt (MW) project is located on the mainstem of the Yuba River in 
northern California in Nevada County approximately 23 miles northeast 
of the City of Marysville. The project affects 0.55 acres of Federal 
land managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Commission staff has

[[Page 27932]]

prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) for the project.
    The EA contains staff's 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
