Western Area Power Administration proposes to reconductor the existing 61-mile long 230-kilovolt Davis-Mead Transmission Line located in Clark County, Nevada and Mohave COunty, Arizona. Western owns and operates the existing transmission line. THe transmission line is a mjor component of the electric transmisison grad of the western United States.
This document is functionally identical to the Environmental Assessment released in support of the Interim Final Rules published on December 4, 2006 (71 FR 70275). No findings or results have been changed. The EA examines the potential environmental impacts of the Final Rule on building habitability and the outdoor environment. To identify the potential environmental impacts that may result from implementing the Final Rule for new Federal commercial and residential buildings, DOE compared the Final Rule with the “no-action alternative” of using the current Federal standards – 10 CFR Part 434 and 10 CFR Part 435 Subpart C (referred to as the “no-action alternative”).

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) conducted an environmental assessment (EA) that analyzed the potential impacts associated with the construction and operation of a proposed cellulosic ethanol plant in Treutlen County, Georgia. DOE, through its Golden Field Office, in Golden, Colorado, would provide funding to Range Fuels, Inc., a Colorado based corporation, to support the construction and initial operation of the proposed plant.

U.S. Department of Energy Office of Legacy Management (DOE) prepared the Uranium Leasing Program Programmatic Environmental Assessment (PEA) (DOE/EA-1535) to evaluate its management alternatives for the future of DOE’s Uranium Leasing Program (ULP). Based on the analyses in the final PEA, I have determined that the proposed action does not constitute a major Federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human
