Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 2622-013]
Turners Falls Hydro, LLC; 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 license for the Turners Falls
Hydroelectric Project No. 2622 (Project No. 2622), located on the
Connecticut River, within the power canal of the Turners Falls
Hydroelectric Project No. 1889, in Franklin County, Massachusetts, and
has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) for Project No. 2622.
The EA contains staff's analysis of the potential environmental
impacts of Project No. 2622 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. At this time, the Commission has
suspended access to the Commission's Public Reference Room, due to the
proclamation declaring a National Emergency concerning the Novel
Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19), issued by the President on March 13,
2020. For assistance, contact FERC Online Support at
