Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 30 / Wednesday, February 17, 2021 / Notices process begun after September 14, 2020.
An agency may also apply the regulations to ongoing activities and environmental documents begun before September 14, 2020, which includes the proposed Lower Great Falls Hydroelectric Project relicensing.
Commission staff intends to conduct its NEPA review in accordance with CEQs new regulations.
l. Project Description: The existing Lower Great Falls Hydroelectric Project consists of: 1 A 297-foot-long, 32-foothigh stone masonry and concrete dam that includes the following sections: a a 176-foot-long spillway section with a crest elevation of 102.37 feet National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929
NGVD and 4-foot-high flashboards at an elevation of 106.37 feet NGVD at the top of the flashboards; b a 50-foot-long left abutment section with two 8-footwide, 8-foot-high low-level outlet gates only one of which is operational, that control flow into two 7-foot-diameter, 40-foot-long outlet pipes; and c a 71foot-long right abutment section; 2 a 40-acre impoundment with a normal elevation of 106.37 feet NGVD; 3 a 40.5-foot-wide, 20-foot-high intake structure with four 5-foot-wide, 10.5foot-high steel frame gates and a trashrack with 2-inch bar spacing; 4 an 8.5-foot-diameter, 120-foot-long steel penstock that bifurcates into a 5.3-footdiameter, 85-foot-long section and a 7.6foot-diameter, 85-foot-long section; 5
an 8.5-foot-diameter, 140-foot-long steel penstock that bifurcates into a 7-footdiameter, 85-foot-long section and a 7.6foot-diameter, 85-foot-long section; 6 a 46-foot-long, 30-foot-wide concrete and brick powerhouse with two 260-kilowatt kW F-type Francis turbine-generator units and two 380-kW F-type Francis turbine-generator units, for a total installed capacity of 1.28 megawatts; 7
a 55-foot-long, 30-foot-wide tailrace; 8
a 260-foot-long underground transmission line that delivers power to a 4.16-kilovolt distribution line; and 9
appurtenant facilities. The project creates a 250-foot-long bypassed reach of the Salmon Falls River between the dam and the downstream end of the tailrace.
The project operates as a run-of-river ROR facility with no storage or flood control capacity. The project impoundment is maintained at a flashboard crest elevation of 106.37 feet NGVD. The current license requires the project to maintain a continuous minimum flow of 6.05 cubic feet per second cfs or inflow, whichever is less, to the bypassed reach for the purpose of protecting and enhancing aquatic resources in the Salmon Falls River. The average annual generation production of

mode; 2 provide a minimum flow of 30
cfs or inflow, whichever is less, to the bypassed reach; 3 install an eel ramp for upstream eel passage at the project;
