The proposed projects would be located on the Muskingum River in Ohio. The Philo Lock and Dam Water Power Project would be located north of Philo, Ohio, in Muskingum County at river mile (RM) 68.3. The Rokeby Lock and Dam Water Power Project would be located in Rokeby, Ohio, in Morgan and Muskingum Counties at RM 57.4. The Malta/McConnelsville Lock and Dam Water Power Project would be located in McConnelsville, Ohio, in Morgan County at RM 49.4. The Beverly Lock and Dam Water Power Project would be located upstream of Beverly, Ohio, in Washington and Morgan Counties at RM 25.1.

The Devola Lock and Dam Water Power Project would be located near Devola, Ohio, in Washington County at RM 5.8. The projects would be located at existing dams owned by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources. The projects would not occupy federal land. Staff prepared a multi-project environmental assessment (EA) in cooperation with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which analyzes the potential environmental effects of licensing the six projects, and concludes that licensing the projects, with appropriate environmental protection measures, would not constitute a major federal action that would significantly affect the quality of the human environment. A copy of the EA is available for review at the Commission in the Public Reference Room or may be viewed on the Commission's Web site at www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link.
