purposes only to the extent that such 

products have been tested in accordance 

with the provisions outlined above and 

such representations fairly disclose the 

results of such testing. 

(5) This decision and order applies 

only to those models specifically set out 

in the petition, not future models that 

may be manufactured by Samsung. 

Samsung may submit a new or amended 

petition for waiver and request for grant 

of interim waiver, as appropriate, for 

additional models of clothes washers for 

which it seeks a waiver from the DOE 

test procedure. Grant of this waiver does 

not release Samsung from the 

certification requirements set forth at 10 

CFR 430.62. 

(6) This waiver shall remain in effect 

consistent with the provisions of 10 

CFR430.27(m). 

(7) This waiver is issued on the 

condition that the statements, 

representations, and documentary 

materials provided by the petitioner are 

valid. DOE may revoke or modify this 

waiver at any time if it determines the 

factual basis underlying the petition for 

waiver is incorrect, or the results from 

the alternate test procedure are 

unrepresentative of the basic models’ 

true energy consumption characteristics.

8102 (fax), or jbowe@dl.com. 

Pursuant to section 157.9 of the 

Commission’s rules, 18 CFR 157.9, 

within 90 days of this Notice the 

Commission staff will either: complete 

its environmental assessment (EA) and 

place it into the Commission’s public 

record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or 

issue a Notice of Schedule for 

Environmental Review. If a Notice of 

Schedule for Environmental Review is 

issued, it will indicate, among other 

milestones, the anticipated date for the 

Commission staff’s issuance of the final 

environmental impact statement (FEIS) 

or EA for this proposal. The filing of the 

EA in the Commission’s public record 

for this proceeding or the issuance of a 

Notice of Schedule for Environmental 

Review will serve to notify Federal and 


jdjones on DSK8KYBLC1PROD with NOTICES
13172 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 47 / Thursday, March 10, 2011 / Notices 

State agencies of the timing for the 

completion of all necessary reviews, and 

the subsequent need to complete all 

Federal authorizations within 90 days of 

the date of issuance of the Commission 

staff’s FEIS or EA. 

There are two ways to become 

involved in the Commission’s review of 

this project. First, any person wishing to 

obtain legal status by becoming a party 

to the proceedings for this project 

should, on or before the comment date 

stated below, file with the Federal 

Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 

First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, 

a motion to intervene in accordance 

with the requirements of the 

Commission’s Rules of Practice and 

Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211) 

and the Regulations under the NGA (18 

CFR 157.10). A person obtaining party 

status will be placed on the service list 

maintained by the Secretary of the 

Commission and will receive copies of 

all documents filed by the applicant and 

by all other parties. A party must submit 

seven copies of filings made with the 

Commission and must mail a copy to 

the applicant and to every other party in 

the proceeding. Only parties to the 

proceeding can ask for court review of 

Commission orders in the proceeding. 

Persons who wish to comment only 

on the environmental review of this 

project should submit an original and 

two copies of their comments to the 

Secretary of the Commission. 

Environmental cementers will be placed 

on the Commission’s environmental 

mailing list, will receive copies of the 

environmental documents, and will be 

notified of meetings associated with the 

Commission’s environmental review 

process. Environmental cementers will 

not be required to serve copies of filed 

documents on all other parties. 

However, the nonparty commenters will 

not receive copies of all documents filed 

by other parties or issued by the 

Commission (except for the mailing of 

environmental documents issued by the 

Commission) and will not have the right 

to seek court review of the 

Commission’s final order. 

However, a person does not have to 

intervene in order to have comments 

considered. The second way to 

participate is by filing with the 

Secretary of the Commission, as soon as 

possible, an original and two copies of 

comments in support of or in opposition 

to this project. The Commission will 

consider these comments in 

determining the appropriate action to be 

taken, but the filing of a comment alone 

will not serve to make the filer a party 

to the proceeding. The Commission’s 

rules require that persons filing 

comments in opposition to the project 

provide copies of their protests only to 

the party or parties directly involved in 

the protest. 

The Commission encourages 

electronic submission of protests and 

interventions in lieu of paper using the 

‘‘eFiling’’ link at http://www.ferc.gov. 

Persons unable to file electronically 

should submit an original and seven 

copies of the protest or intervention to 

the Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission, 888 First Street, NE., 

Washington, DC 20426. This filing is 

accessible on-line at http://www.ferc.gov 

using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link and is available 

for review in the Commission’s Public 

Reference Room in Washington, DC. 

There is an ‘‘eSubscription’’ link on the 

Web site that enables subscribers to 

receive e-mail notification when a 

document is added to a subscribed 

docket(s). For assistance with any FERC 

Online service, please e-mail

k. The Project Description: The 

Middle Fork American River Project 

(project) has two principal water storage 

reservoirs, French Meadows and Hell 

Hole. These reservoirs are located on the 

Middle Fork American River and the 

Rubicon River, respectively, and have a 

combined gross storage capacity of 

342,583 acre-feet (ac-ft). 

Starting at the highest elevation of the 

project, water is diverted from Duncan 

Creek at the Duncan Creek diversion 

and routed through the 1.5-mile-long 

Duncan Creek-Middle Fork tunnel into 

French Meadows reservoir (134,993 acft of gross storage). 

Flows in the Middle Fork American 

River are captured and stored in French 

Meadows reservoir along with 

diversions from Duncan Creek. From 

French Meadows reservoir, water is 

transported via the 2.6-mile-long French 

Meadows-Hell Hole tunnel, passed 

through the French Meadows 

powerhouse [installed generating 

capacity of 15.3 megawatts (MW)], and 

released into Hell Hole reservoir 

(207,590 ac-ft of gross storage). Flows in 

the Rubicon River are captured and 

stored in Hell Hole reservoir along with 

water released from French Meadows 

reservoir through French Meadows 

powerhouse. Water released from Hell 

Hole reservoir into the Rubicon River to 

meet instream flow requirements first 

pass through the Hell Hole powerhouse 

(installed generating capacity of 0.73 

MW), which is located at the base of 

Hell Hole dam. 

From Hell Hole reservoir, water is 

also transported via the 10.4-mile-long 

Hell Hole-Middle Fork tunnel, passed 

through the Middle Fork powerhouse 

(installed generating capacity of 122.4 

MW), and released into the Middle Fork 

Interbay (175 ac-ft of gross storage). 

Between Hell Hole reservoir and Middle 

Fork powerhouse, water is diverted 

from the North and South Forks of Long 

Canyon creeks directly into the Hell 

Hole-Middle Fork tunnel. Water 

diverted from these creeks into the Hell 

Hole-Middle Fork tunnel can either be 

stored in Hell Hole reservoir or be used 

to augment releases from Hell Hole 

reservoir to the Middle Fork 

powerhouse.
