[Project No. 5891-009]


Deschutes Valley Water District; Notice of Availability of 
Revised 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 47897), the Office 
of Energy Projects has reviewed the Deschutes Valley Water District's 
(licensee) updated application to amend the license in order to 
construct and operate fish passage facilities at the Opal Springs 
Hydroelectric Project No. 5891. The project is located on the Crooked 
River in Jefferson County, Oregon. The project occupies federal lands 
administered by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management.
    The updated application, filed with the Commission on October 31, 
2017, contains an Environmental Analysis in its Exhibit E. After 
independent review of the licensee's Exhibit E, Commission staff has 
decided to adopt the licensee's updated Environmental Analysis and 
issue it as staff's Environmental Assessment (EA). The updated EA 
analyzes the potential environmental impacts of construction and 
operation of fish passage facilities plus the proposed mitigation 
measures and concludes that granting the proposed amendment would not 
constitute a major federal action that would significantly affect the 
quality of the human environment.
    A copy of the updated EA is on file with the Commission and is 
available for public inspection. The EA may be viewed on the 
Commission's website at http://www.ferc.gov using the eLibrary link. 
Enter the docket number (P-5891) in the docket number field to access 
the document. For assistance, contact FERC Online Support at 
[email protected] or call toll-free at 1-866-208-3676 or (202) 
502-8659 (for TTY).
    A copy of the EA may also be accessed using this link: https://
