31892 Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 98 / Friday, May 19, 2000 / Notices

Collection Title: U.S. Department of

Energy/Combined Heat and Power

Registry

Type of Review: New collection.

OMB Number: None.

Type of Respondents: Individuals,

Businesses, State and Local

Governments.

Estimated Number of Respondents:

1,000.

Estimated Total Burden Hours: 500.

Frequency of Response: One time

only.

Abstract: DOE plans to publicize

widely the existence of the registry

through it Regional Offices, the CHP

website, meetings, conferences and the

like, and through its relationship with

CHP organizations. Due to the recent

high level of interest in CHP, DOE

expects that many CHP installers,

individuals, utilities, governments, and

businesses will wish to register their

CHP systems in order to gain

recognition on the CHP webpage and

also be potentially eligible for an award.

Registration would take place

electronically (a paper form would be

available upon request) by responding

to a series of very brief questions. If a

system met the established criteria, a

CHP certificate would be sent to the

facility. Registration would take place

one time only. DOE plans to aggregate

the data and generate reports detailing

the geographic distribution of systems

and among other things, the sizes and

types of systems. This data collection

will assist DOE in its management of

and planning for the continued success

of the CHP initiative.

Request for Comments: Pursuant to 44

U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A), DOE invites

comments on: (1) Whether the proposed

collection of information is necessary to

measure the progress and success of the

CHP registry; (2) the accuracy of DOE’s

estimate of the burden of the proposed

information collection; (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

choose to respond. Additional

information about DOE’s proposed

information collection may be obtained

from the contact person named in this

notice.

Issued in Washington, DC on May 9, 2000.
