Notice published on Aug. 21 by Energy Department

The US Energy Department published a two page notice on Aug. 21, according to the U.S. Government Publishing Office.

The notice is focused on K N Interstate Gas Transmission Co.; Notice of Compliance Filing.

The Department oversees energy policies and is involved in how the US handles nuclear programs. Downsizing the Federal Government, a project aimed at lowering taxes and boosting federal efficiency, said the Department's misguided energy regulations have caused large losses to consumers for decades.

Notices are required documents detailing rules and regulations being proposed by each federal department. This allows the public to see what issues legislators and federal departments are focusing on.

Any person or organization can comment on the proposed rules. Departments and agencies must then address “significant issues raised in comments and discuss any changes made,” the Federal Register says.

City of Tacoma, Washington; Notice of Availability of Draft Environmental Assessment August 15, 1996. A draft environmental assessment (DEA) is available for public review. The DEA was prepared for an application filed by the City of Tacoma, Washington, licensee for the Cowlitz River Hydroelectric Project. In its application, the licensee requests Commission approval of a settlement agreement among the licensee, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (the Parties). The agreement creates a 14,000-acre wildlife management area. The Parties wish to include the agreement in the project license. The Cowlitz River Project is located on the Cowlitz River, near the City of Tacoma, in Lewis County, Washington. The DEA finds that approving the settlement agreement is not a major federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. The DEA was written by staff in the Office of Hydropower Licensing, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Copies of the DEA can be obtained by calling the Commission's public reference room at (202) 208-1371.
