Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 298-081]
Southern California Edison Company; Notice of Availability of 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, the Office
of Energy Projects has reviewed the application for a new license to continue to operate
and maintain the Kaweah Hydroelectric Project No. 298 (project). The project is located
on the Kaweah River and East Fork Kaweah River in Tulare County, California.
Commission staff has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) for the project.
The EA contains 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.
The Commission provides all interested persons with an opportunity to view
and/or print the EA via the Internet through the Commission’s Home Page
(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,
