(c) State agency personnel, who work 

under cooperative agreements with 

AMS to conduct restricted use pesticide 

records inspections, have approximately 

4,420 responses annually. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden on 

Respondents: 1,687,553. This revision 

in the Total Annual Burden on 

Respondents decreases the current 

burden by 12,043 hours due to the 

decrease in the number of private 

applicators required to keep records and 

fewer states participating in the 

cooperative program. 

Comments are invited on: (1) Whether 

the proposed collection of information 

is necessary for the proper performance 

of the functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; (2) the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; (3) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (4) ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on those who are to respond, including 

the use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology.

Title: The WIC Farmers’ Market 

Nutrition Program Financial Report 

(Form FNS–683); WIC Farmers’ Market 

Nutrition Program Recipient Report 

(Form FNS–203); and WIC Farmers’

Market Nutrition Program Regulations. 

OMB Number: 0584–0447. 

Form Numbers: Form FNS–683, Form 

FNS–203, and the WIC Farmers’ Market 

Nutrition Program Regulations. 

Expiration Date: February 28, 2005. 

Type of Request: Revision to a 

Currently Approved Collection Form. 

Abstract: Pursuant to Section 17(m)(8) 

of the Child Nutrition Act of 1966, 42 

U.S.C. 1786(m)(8), 7 CFR 248.23 of the 

WIC Farmers’ Market Nutrition Program 

(FMNP) regulations requires that certain 

Program-related information be 

compiled and submitted to FNS. Each 

State agency administering the FMNP is 

required to use FNS–683 and FNS–203 

to report financial and participation 

data to the Secretary as required by 7 

CFR part 3016. FNS will use this 

information for funding and program 

management decisions. Based on the 

previous submission of reporting and 

recordkeeping requirements for the 

FMNP, 41 State agencies administered 

the program, including the 

authorization of 1,622 farmers’ markets 

to accept FMNP coupons. Due to 

program growth, currently 44 State 

agencies administer the program, 

including the authorization of 2,259 

farmers’ markets, 15,241 farmers, and 

1,339 roadside stands authorized to 

accept FMNP coupons (for a total of 

18,839 authorized entities). No new 

program requirements have been added 

to change or increase the number of 

hours per response. Therefore, based on 

an increase in respondents, and an 

increased information collection burden 

on respondents, a revision to the 

reporting and recordkeeping burden is 

necessary.

facility at the existing Hugo Generating 

Station near Hugo, Oklahoma.

DATES: RUS will conduct a public 

scoping meeting in an open-house

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: WFEC and 

Brazos propose to construct and operate 

a 750 MW coal-fired electric generation 

facility at the existing Hugo Generating 

Station near Hugo, Oklahoma. 

Construction of the project will require 

the construction of new electric 

transmission lines. Studies are currently 

underway to determine potential 

connection points and transmission line 

corridors. As soon as the connection 

points and transmission line corridors 

are identified RUS will hold additional 

public meetings. The schedule 

developed by WFEC and Brazos would 

place the facility in commercial 

operation by 2010. Alternatives to be 

considered by RUS include no action, 

purchased power, renewable energy 

sources, distributed generation, and 

alternative transmission line routes. 

Comments regarding the proposed 

project may be submitted (orally or in 

writing) at the public scoping meeting 

or in writing within 30 days after the 

November 1, 2004 meeting to RUS at the 

address provided in this notice. 

RUS will use input provided by 

government agencies, private 

organizations, and the public in the 

preparation of a Draft Environmental 

Impact Statement (EIS). The Draft EIS 

will be available for review and 

comment for 45 days. A Final EIS will 

then be prepared that considers all 

comments received. The Final EIS will 

be available for review and comment for 

30 days. Following the 30-day comment 

period, RUS will prepare a Record of 

Decision (ROD). Notices announcing the 

availability of the Draft and Final EIS 

and the ROD will be published in the 

Federal Register and in local 

newspapers. Any final action by RUS 

related to the proposed project will be 

subject to, and contingent upon, 

compliance with all relevant Federal, 

State. and local environmental laws and 

regulations and completion of the 

environmental review requirements as 

prescribed in Title 7 CFR Part 1794, 

Environmental Policies and Procedures.
