Notice of Availability of Environmental Assessment; McMahan 
Hydroelectric, LLC

    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) 
regulations, 18 CFR part 380, the Office of Energy Projects has 
reviewed the application for the Bynum Hydroelectric Project, located 
on the Haw River, in Chatham County, North Carolina, and has prepared 
an Environmental Assessment (EA) for the project. The project would not 
occupy federal land.
    The EA contains the staff's analysis of the potential environmental 
impacts of the project and concludes that licensing the project, with 
appropriate environmental protective 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 website at 
http://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], toll-free at (866) 208-3676, or (202) 502-
8659 (TTY).

    Any comments should be filed within 30 days of the issuance date of 
the EA or by November 24, 2018.
