El Dorado Irrigation District; Notice of Availability of 
Environmental Assessment

    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, 
as amended, and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) 
regulations, 18 CFR part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), the Office 
of Energy Projects has reviewed an application to amend the El Dorado 
Project license filed by El Dorado Irrigation District (licensee). The 
licensee proposes constructing an earthen stability buttress, raising 
the crest of the dam, and upgrading appurtenant facilities. No Federal 
lands would be involved in the proposed action. The project is located 
on the South Fork American River adjacent to the unincorporated 
community of Pollock Pines in El Dorado, County, California.
    An environmental assessment (EA) has been prepared for Commission 
staff's review of the proposed action, containing staff's analysis of 
the proposed action and concluding that approval of the proposal, with 
staff's recommended measures, would not constitute a major federal 
action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. 
The EA is available for electronic review and reproduction at the 
Commission's Public Reference Room, located at 888 First Street NE., 
Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426. The EA may also be viewed on the 
Commission's Web site at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' 
link. Enter the docket number (P-184) in the docket number field to 
access the document. For assistance, contact FERC Online Support at 
[email protected] or toll-free at (866) 208-3372 or for TTY, 
(202) 502-8659.
    Any comments on the EA should be filed by November 27, 2015, and 
addressed to Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory 
Commission, 888 First Street NE., Room 1-A, Washington, DC 20426. 
Please reference the project name and project number (P-184-244) on all 
comments filed. Comments may be filed electronically via the Internet 
in lieu of paper. The Commission strongly encourages electronic 
filings. See 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the
