Notice of Environmental Site Review: Pacific Gas and Electric 
Company and the City of Santa Clara

    On Tuesday, October 16, 2018, the Federal Energy Regulatory 
Commission (FERC) staff and the Pacific Gas and Electric Company and 
the City of Santa Clara (licensees) will conduct an environmental site 
review of the Bucks Creek Hydropower Project. The project is located on 
Bucks, Grizzly, and Milk Ranch Creeks in Plumas County, California.
    The site review is open to the public, Indian Tribes, and resource 
agencies and will occur from 9:00 a.m. to about 4:00 p.m. (Pacific 
Daylight Time). The site review will leave from the Bucks Lakeshore 
Resort [16001 Bucks Lake Road, Quincy, California 95971, (530) 283-
2848].
    To better support the safety of the group, and to the extent 
practicable, participants will be requested to carpool in vehicles 
provided by the licensees. Participants are asked not to attempt to 
join the site review after it departs the initial meeting location. 
Participants must wear appropriate footwear (i.e., no sandals or open-
toed shoes) and should bring sun protection, water, and lunch. Some 
brief hiking over unimproved dirt trails may be necessary to access 
some sites.
    To appropriately accommodate persons interested in attending the 
site review, participants must contact Alan Mitchnick, FERC Project 
Coordinator, at (202) 502-6074 or [email protected], no later 
than Tuesday, October 9, 2018.

    Dated: September 4, 2018.
Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
