EA-1933: Finding of No Significant Impact

Yakama Nation Drop 4 Hydropower Project, Yakama Nation Reservation, WA

Based on the Final EA, DOE has determined that providing federal funds to install an inline turbine on the WIP Main Canal to generate one megawatt of hydroelectric power, including design, construction, and installation of an inline turbine at Drop 4 and a power generating house, electrical substation, overhead transmission lines, and a downstream water diversion structure, would not constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the human quality of the human environment within the context of NEPA.  Therefore, DOE is issuing this FONSI.
