Description:"In compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Restoration Center (RC) has prepared a Finding of No Significant IMpact (FONSI), for NOAA's adoption of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (FERC) Environmental Assessment for the Application for Surrender of License Veazie, Great Works, and Howland Projects, FERC Project Nos. 2403-056, 2312-019 and 2721-020 to support the issuance of Species Recovery Grant # NA13NMF4000039. NMFS proposes to issue this grant to support the recovery of multiple species listed under the Endangered Species Act - namely, Atlantic salmon and Atlantic and shortnose sturgeon - through the removal of the Veazie Dam on the Penobscot River in Maine. The public and other interested parties have participated in review of the FERC's EA, and consequently additional public review will not occur at this time"--Summary from cover letter.
