of intervention and pursuant to Section 

157.205 of the regulations under the 

NGA (18 CFR 157.205), a protest to the 

request. If no protest is filed within the 

time allowed therefor, the proposed 

activity shall be deemed to be 

authorized effective the day after the 

time allowed for filing a protest. If a 

protest is filed and not withdrawn 

within 30 days after the allowed time 

for filing a protest, the instant request 

shall be treated as an application for

the NGA. 

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 

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

Environmental commenter’s 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 commenter’s will not be 

required to serve copies of filed 

documents on all other parties. 

However, the non-party commentary, 

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. 

The Commission strongly encourages 

electronic filings of comments, protests 

and interventions in lieu of paper using 

the ‘‘eFiling’’ link at http://

EPA ICR Number: 0138.10. 

OMB Control Number: 2040–0088. 

Abstract: The Clean Water Act (CWA) 

section 301(h) program involves 

collecting information from two sources: 

(1) The municipal wastewater treatment 

facility, commonly called a publicly 

owned treatment works (POTW); and (2) 

the state in which the POTW is located. 

Municipalities had the opportunity to 

apply for a waiver from secondary 

treatment requirements, but that 

opportunity closed in December 1982. A 

POTW that seeks a section 301(h) 

waiver does so voluntarily to obtain or 

retain a benefit. A POTW seeking to 

obtain a 301(h) waiver, holding a 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

4902 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 20 / Thursday, January 30, 2014 / Notices 

current waiver, or reapplying for a 

waiver, provides application, 

monitoring, and toxic control program 

information. The state provides 

information on its determination 

whether the proposed conditions of the 

waiver ensure the protection of water 

quality, biological habitats, and 

beneficial uses of receiving waters, and 

whether the discharge will result in 

additional treatment, pollution control, 

or any other requirement for any other 

point or nonpoint sources. The state 

also provides information to certify that 

the discharge will meet all applicable 

state laws and that the state accepts all 

permit conditions. EPA requires 

updated information on the discharge 

to: (1) Determine whether the section 

301(h) criteria are still being met and 

whether the section 301(h) waiver 

should be reissued; (2) determine 

whether the water quality, biological 

habitats, and beneficial uses of the 

receiving waters are protected; and (3) 

ensure that the permittee is effectively 

minimizing industrial and nonindustrial 

toxic pollutant and pesticide discharges 

into the treatment works. EPA needs 

information from the state to: (1) Allow 

the state’s views to be taken into 

account when EPA reviews the section 

301(h) application and develops permit 

conditions; and (2) ensure that all state 

laws are met and that the state accepts 

all permit conditions. This information 

is the means by which the state can nonconcur with a section 301(h) approval 

decision made by the EPA Regional 

office. Regulations implementing CWA 

section 301(h) are found at 40 CFR part 

125, subpart G. The information covered 

by this information collection request 

involves treatment plant operating data, 

effects of POTWs’ discharges on marine 

environments, and states’ viewpoints on 

issues concerning effects of POTWs’ 

discharges on marine environments. 

Form Numbers: ‘‘None.’’ 

Respondents/affected entities: Entities 

potentially affected by this action are 

those municipalities that currently have 

section 301(h) waivers from secondary 

treatment, or have applied for a renewal 

of a section 301(h) waiver, and the states 

within which these municipalities are 

located. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Required to obtain or retain a benefit. 

Estimated number of respondents: 37 

(total). 

Frequency of response: From once 

every five years, to varies case-by-case, 

depending on the category of 

information. 

Total estimated burden: 59,370 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.3(b). 

Total estimated cost: $1.3 million (per 

year), includes $0 annualized capital or 

operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is a 

decrease in the total estimated 

respondent burden compared with the 

ICR currently approved by OMB, due to 

changes in the respondent universe, 

program status, information needs, and 

the use of technology.

Abstract: Under the provisions of 

national Program Development and 

Approval Guidance implementing 

section 6217 of the Coastal Zone Act 

Reauthorization Amendments of 1990 

(CZARA) which was jointly developed 

and published by EPA and the National 

Oceanic and Atmospheric 

Administration (NOAA), 29 coastal 

States and 5 coastal Territories with 

federally approved Coastal Zone 

Management Programs have developed 

and submitted to EPA and NOAA 

Coastal Nonpoint Pollution Programs. 

Another State (Illinois) is developing its 

program for submittal to EPA and 

NOAA in early 2014. EPA and NOAA 

have fully approved 17 States and 5 

Territories, and conditionally approved 

11 States. Another State that was 

conditionally approved (Alaska) ceased 

its participation in this program in 2011. 

States and Territories with conditional 

approvals are required to submit 

additional information in order to 

obtain final program approval. CZARA 

section 6217 requires States and 

Territories to obtain final approval of 

their Coastal Nonpoint Pollution 

Programs in order to retain their full
