that are currently authorized by WIC 

State agencies. 

Comments are being solicited on 

whether the NUPC will decrease the 

burden on WIC State agencies and 

manufacturers by providing a uniform 

data source for submitting products for 

WIC review and eligibility. The burden 

hours associated with this collection 

burden will be for updates to existing 

products and the addition of new 

products as they become available and 

authorized. We estimate that for this 

burden reporting period, 1,000 

manufacturers will spend a total of 125 

burden hours to report new product 

information and update existing product 

information when necessary; 20 State 

agencies (40 users) will spend a total of 

5 burden hours to report new product 

information, update existing product 

information, and, upload/download 

products to their State agency approved 

list, and 2 Federal users will spend a 

total of 1⁄2 hour to report new infant 

formula product information and update 

formula product information when 

necessary. The total number of burden 

hours for this reporting period is 130.50 

hours.

DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE 

Forest Service 

Green Mountain National Forest; 

Vermont; Deerfield Wind Project 

AGENCY: Forest Service, USDA. 

ACTION: Revision, notice of intent to 

prepare an environmental impact 

statement. 

SUMMARY: The Forest Service is 

processing an application for a special 

use authorization from Deerfield Wind, 

LLC for the installation and operation of 

wind turbines on National Forest 

System (NFS) lands managed by the 

Green Mountain National Forest 

(GMNF). This notice revises the 

‘‘responsible official’’, updates the 

expected dates for the release of the EIS, 

makes minor modifications to certain 

parts of the proposed action, and asks 

for comments on those modifications. 

DATES: Comments concerning the scope 

of the analysis, specifically in regard to 

the modifications to the original 

proposed action, should be received by 

October 19, 2007. The draft 

environmental impact statement is now 

expected in January 2008 and the final 

environmental impact statement is 

expected in July 2008. 

ADDRESSES: Send written comments to 

Bob Bayer, Project Coordinator, 

Manchester Ranger District, USDA 

Forest Service, 2538 Depot Street, 

Manchester Center, VT 05255. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Bob 

Bayer, Project Coordinator, Manchester 

Ranger District, USDA Forest Service, 

2538 Depot Street, Manchester Center, 

VT 05255; 802–362–2307 ext. 218; email: rbayer@fs.fed.us. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

original notice of intent to prepare the 

Deerfield Wind Project EIS was 

published in the Federal Register on 

July 15, 2005 (Vol. 70, No. 135, page 

409750). Revisions are as noted here. 

The responsible official is now Meg 

Mitchell, Forest Supervisor, Green 

Mountain and Finger Lakes National 

Forest. The expected dates for the 

release of the EIS is as noted above. The 

proposed action has been clarified as 

follows. 

Modifications to the Proposed Action 

The Deerfield Wind Project is now 

proposed to consist of 17 wind turbines 

with a rotor size of 87 or 88 meters in 

diameter for a total turbine height from 

ground to the top of the blade tip at 

about 400 to 410 feet and a name plate 

power rating of 2.0 or 2.1 megawatts 

(MW), depending upon which model of 

turbine is selected. The original notice 

proposed 20 to 30 turbines 

approximating 340–370 feet in height 

with a power rating of between 1.5 to 

2.0 MW per turbine. The site will now 

be capable of producing 34 or 35.7 MW 

whereas the original proposal called for 

a site capacity of 30 to 45 MW of 

electricity. Access to the western project 

area will be from the north along a 

private road known as the Putnam Road, 

and will extend westerly onto Forest 

Service land, rather than from the south 

end of the project site as originally 

proposed. A storage and maintenance 

building and a new substation will be 

sited along the northern access road. An 

alternative to connect to an existing 

Green Mountain Power Company 

substation on private land on the east 

side of Route 8 is no longer feasible due 

to capacity issues. 

Responsible Official 

Meg Mitchell, Forest Supervisor, 

Green Mountain and Finger Lakes 

National Forests, 231 North Main Street, 

Rutland, VT 05701–2417. 

Comments Requested 

This revised notice of intent 

continues the process of gathering 

comments which guides the

impact statement. The primary purpose 

is to gather public comments, issues, 

and concerns regarding the proposed 

action. Comments, issues and concerns 

will be used to help formulate 

alternatives to the proposed action. 

Please make your written comments as 

specific as possible as they relate to the 

modifications of the proposed action. 

There is no need to re-submit comments

submitted during the formal scoping 

process held in July–August of 2005. 

Those people new to the process at this 

time may feel free to provide a broader 

range of comments. Include your name, 

address, and, if possible, telephone 

number and e-mail address. Comments 

received in response to this solicitation, 

including the names and addresses of 

those who comment, will be considered 

part of the public record and will be 

available for public inspection. 

Comments submitted anonymously will

Additionally, pursuant to 7 CFR 127(d), 

any person may request that a 

submission be withheld from the public 

record by showing how the Freedom of

confidentiality should be aware that 

confidentiality is granted in only very 

limited circumstances. The Forest 

Service will inform the requester of its
