DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission
[Project No. 2277]
AmerenUE; Notice of Scoping
Meetings and Intent To Prepare an
Environmental Document
February 13, 2007.
By letter dated February 2, 2007 to the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission,
AmerenUE (licensee) affirmed its
intention to rebuild the upper reservoir
of the Taum Sauk Pumped Storage
Project (FERC No. 2277). The Taum
Sauk Project is located in Reynolds
County, Missouri near the town of
Lesterville.
The upper reservoir was severely
damaged during an uncontrolled breach
of the northwest corner of the reservoir
on December 14, 2005. The proposed
project involves rebuilding the upper
reservoir with a concrete-faced,
symmetrical, roller compacted concrete
(RCC) dam. The work would involve the
complete removal of the existing rockfill
dike that forms the upper reservoir and
the construction of an RCC dam using
the existing rockfill as the aggregate.
The Commission intends to prepare
an environmental document under the
National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA) for the Taum Sauk upper
reservoir rebuilding project. The NEPA
document will be used by the
Commission to identify environmental
impacts and to identify measures that
would help mitigate the impacts caused
by construction activities. To support
and assist our environmental review, we
are beginning a public scoping process
to ensure that all pertinent issues are
identified and analyzed, and that the
environmental document is thorough
and balanced.
We invite the participation of
governmental agencies, non-
governmental organizations, and the
general public in the scoping process,
and will be preparing Scoping
Document (SD) to provide information
on the proposed project and to solicit
written and verbal comments and
suggestions on our preliminary list of
issues and alternatives to be addressed
in the NEPA document. The SD will be
distributed to parties on the mailing list
E:\FR\FM\26FEN1.SGM 26FEN1
 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 37 / Monday, February 26, 2007 / Notices
for this project, as well as other
individuals and organizations that we
have identified as having an interest in
the Taum Sauk Project. The SD will be
available from our Public Reference
Room at (202) 208–1371. It will also be
accessible online at http://www.ferc.gov
using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link—select
‘‘General Search’’, and enter ‘‘P–2277’’
in the ‘‘Docket Number’’ box. You may
also call (202)–208–2222 for assistance.
Following distribution of the SD,
Commission staff will hold two scoping
meetings on March 12, 2007, to receive
input on the appropriate scope of the
environmental analysis. The first
meeting will be with the resource
agencies to focus on their concerns and
the second meeting will be with the
general public to receive their input.
Each meeting is open and the public
and agencies may attend either or both
meetings. The times and locations of
these meetings are as follows:
Agency Scoping Meeting
Date: March 12, 2007.
Time: 9 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. (CST).
Location: Missouri Department of
Natural Resources, Elm Street
Conference Center, 1738 East Elm
Street, Jefferson City, Missouri 65102.
Public Scoping Meeting
Date: March 12, 2007.
Time: 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. (CST).
Location: Lesterville High School,
State Highway 21, Lesterville, Missouri
63654.
At the scoping meetings, Commission
staff will: (1) Summarize the
environmental issues tentatively
identified for analysis in the
environmental document; (2) solicit
from the meeting participants all
available information, especially
quantifiable data, on the resources at
issue; (3) encourage statements from
experts and the public on issues that
should be analyzed in the Commission’s
NEPA document, including viewpoints
in opposition to, or in support of, staff’s
preliminary views expressed in the SD;
(4) determine the resource issues to be
addressed in the NEPA document; and
(5) identify those issues that require a
detailed analysis, as well as those issues
that do not require a detailed analysis.
Staff will also be soliciting input on
potential measures that could be
implemented to minimize construction-
related impacts. The meetings will be
recorded by a stenographer and become
part of the formal record for this project.
