Rochester Gas and Electric Corp., LLC; Notice of Availability of Draft Environmental Assessment
October 30, 2008.
In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission or FERC) regulations contained in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) (18 CFR Part 380), the Office of Energy Projects staff (staff) reviewed Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation LLC's request to amend the license for the Station 2 Project (FERC No. 2582) to upgrade an existing hydroelectric unit and install a new unit in a new powerhouse and prepared a draft Environmental Assessment (DEA) for the project. In this DEA, staff analyzes the potential environmental effects of the Proposed Action and concludes that the proposal, with recommended mitigation measures, would not constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. The project is located on the Genesee River in Monroe County, New York.
