PE Hydro Generation, LLC; Notice of Availability of Draft 
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 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47879), the Office 
of Energy Projects has reviewed the application for a new license for 
the Millville Hydroelectric Project, located on the Shenandoah River, 
near the town of Harpers Ferry in Jefferson County, West Virginia, and 
has prepared a draft Environmental Assessment (draft EA) for the 
project. The project does not occupy federal land.
    In the draft EA, Commission staff analyze the potential 
environmental effects of relicensing the project and conclude that 
continued project operation under a new license, with appropriate 
measures, would not constitute a major federal action significantly 
affecting the quality of the human environment.
    A copy of the draft 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. Enter the docket number, 
excluding the last three digits, in the docket number field to access 
the document. For assistance, contact FERC Online Support at 
[email protected] or toll-free number at 1-866-208-3676, or 
for TTY, 202-502-8659.
    You may also register online at www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/esubscription.asp to be notified via email of new filings and issuances
