REGULATORY COMMISSION March 4, 2004 Magalie Salas, Secretary OR I GINAL Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Mail Code: DLC, HL-1 1.2 888 First St., NE Washington, DC 20426 RE:
Oswego River Hydroelectric Project (FERC #2474)
Review of Notice of Settlement Agreement and Soliciting Comments
Dear Ms. Salas:
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) has reviewed the February 24, 2004, Notice of Settlement Agreement and Soliciting Comments for the Oswego River Hydroelectric Project, located on the Oswego River in Oswego County, New York. The Licensee, Erie Boulevard Hydro Power, LP (Erie), filed the Settlement Agreement (Settlement) on February 18, 2004. The Service signed the Settlement on April 18, 2003.
The Service participated in the relicensing of this project from approximately 1985 until the filing of the Settlement. The protection, mitigation, and enhancement measures incorporated into the Settlement supercede the recommendations, terms, and conditions provided by the Service in the U.S. Department of the Interior's (Department) March 26, 1996, letter in response to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (FERC) Notice of Application Ready for Environmental Analysis. The Settlement measures will provide equal or better protection and enhancement of the fish and wildlife resources than the original measures filed under Section 10(j) of the Federal Power Act (FPA). The Service recommends that the FERC incorporate the entire Settlement into the FERC license as specified in Section 2 of the Settlement.
The Department also filed a Preliminary Fishway Prescription under Section 18 of the FPA as part of the March 26, 1996, filing. On February 27, 2001, following opportunity for comment, the Department filed a Modified Prescription and Administrative Record, including Responses to Comments. The fish passage and protection measures and the implementation schedule identified in Section 3.5 of the Settlement should be considered by the FERC to supersede the measures incorporated in the February 27,2001, Modified Prescription, and the Settlement should be considered to be part of the Administrative Record for this project.
UnOfficial FERC-Generated PDF of 20040309-0150 Received by FERC OSEC 03/08/2004 in Docket#: P-2474-000 The Service looks forward to a prompt issuance of a license to Eric consistent with the terms of the Settlement. If you have any questions or need additional information, contact Steve Patch at 607-753-9334.
Sincerely, RA.
