of delays in handling conventional mail, 

it is recommended that documents be 

transmitted by overnight mail, by 

electronic mail to Electricity.Exports@

hq.doe.gov, or by facsimile to 202–586– 

8008. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Exports of 

electricity from the United States to a 

foreign country are regulated by the 

Department of Energy (DOE) pursuant to 

sections 301(b) and 402(f) of the 

Department of Energy Organization Act 

(42 U.S.C. 7151(b), 7172(f)) and require 

authorization under section 202(e) of 

the Federal Power Act (16 U.S.C. 

824a(e)). 

On May 22, 2014, Frontera and 

Lonestar applied to transfer Frontera’s 

existing authority to transmit electric 

energy from the United States to 

Mexico, using the electric transmission 

facilities authorized in Presidential 

permit PP–206, to Lonestar. DOE’s 

regulations do not permit the voluntary 

transfer of export authority, but instead 

require a joint application to rescind the 

existing authorization and to issue a 

new authorization in the name of the 

transferee. DOE will consider this a joint 

application for a new authorization in 

the name of Lonestar. Lonestar is 

requesting expedited treatment of this 

application and issuance of an Order 

within 60 days. 

In its application, Lonestar states that 

it does not own any electric generating 

or transmission facilities, and it does 

not have a franchised service area. The 

electric energy that Lonestar proposes to 

export to Mexico would be energy 

generated at the Frontera Generation 

Station. The existing international 

transmission facilities that Lonestar 

proposes to use for export have 

previously been authorized by 

Presidential permit PP–206, issued 

pursuant to Executive Order 10485, as 

amended. 

Procedural Matters: Any person 

desiring to be heard in this proceeding 

should file a comment or protest to the 

application at the address provided 

above. Protests should be filed in 

accordance with Rule 211 of the Federal 

Energy Regulatory Commission’s (FERC) 

Rules of Practice and Procedures (18 

CFR 385.211). Any person desiring to 

become a party to these proceedings 

should file a motion to intervene at the 

above address in accordance with FERC 

Rule 214 (18 CFR 385.214). Five copies 

of such comments, protests, or motions 

to intervene should be sent to the 

address provided above on or before the 

date listed above. 

Comments and other filings 

concerning the Lonestar application to 

export electric energy to Mexico should 

be clearly marked with OE Docket No. 

EA–401. An additional copy is to be 

provided directly to Thomas Favinger,

Barrowes, Baker Botts L.L.P., 1299 

Pennsylvania Ave. NW., Washington, 

DC 20004. A final decision will be made 

on this application after the 

environmental impacts have been 

evaluated pursuant to DOE’s National 

Environmental Policy Act Implementing 

Procedures (10 CFR part 1021) and after 

a determination is made by DOE that the 

proposed action will not have an 

adverse impact on the sufficiency of 

supply or reliability of the U.S. electric 

power supply system.

Collection 

AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy, U.S. Department of 

Energy. 

ACTION: Notice and Request for OMB 

Review and Comment. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Energy’s 

(DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy (EERE) has submitted 

to the Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) for clearance, a proposal for 

collection of information under the 

provisions of the Paperwork Reduction 

Act of 1995. The proposed collection 

will provide DOE with the information 

necessary to meet its statutory and 

regulatory obligations under the 

National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA) of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) 

and the DOE NEPA implementing 

regulations, which requires EERE to 

perform environmental impact analyses 

prior to making a decision to provide 

Federal funding for research, 

development and demonstration 

projects funded by DOE. 

DATES: Comments regarding this 

collection must be received on or before 

July 17, 2014. If you anticipate difficulty 

in submitting comments within that 

period, contact the DOE Desk Officer at 

OMB of your intention to make a 

submission as soon as possible. The 

Desk Officer may be telephoned at 202– 

395–4650. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments should 

be sent to: 

DOE Desk Officer at Office of 

Information and Regulatory Affairs, 

Office of Management and Budget, 

New Executive Office Building, Room 

10102, 735 17th Street NW., 

Washington, DC 20503. 

And to:

Energy, 15013 Denver West Parkway, 

Golden, CO 80401, by fax at (720– 

356–1790), or by email at 

EEREQComments@go.doe.gov. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Requests for additional information or 

copies of the EERE Environmental 

Questionnaire should be directed to Lisa 

Jorgensen at EEREQComments@

go.doe.gov. The EERE Environmental 

Questionnaire also is available for 

viewing in the Golden Field Office 

Public Reading Room at: http://

www.eere.energy.gov/golden/Reading_

Room.aspx. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

information collection request contains: 

(1) OMB No. New; 

(2) Information Collection Request 

Title: Office of Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy (EERE) 

Environmental Questionnaire; 

(3) Type of Request: New; 

(4) Purpose: The DOE’s EERE 

provides federal funding through federal 

assistance programs to businesses, 

industries, universities, and other 

groups for renewable energy and energy 

efficiency research and development 

and demonstration projects. The 

National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA) of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) 

requires that an environmental analysis 

be completed for all major federal 

actions significantly affecting the 

environment including projects entirely 

or partly financed by federal agencies. 

To effectively perform environmental 

analyses for these projects, the DOE’s 

EERE needs to collect project-specific 

information from federal financial 

assistance awardees. DOE’s EERE has 

developed its Environmental 

Questionnaire to obtain the required 

information and ensure that its 

decision-making processes are 

consistent with NEPA as it relates to 

renewable energy and energy efficiency 

research and development and 

demonstration projects; 

(5) Annual Estimated Number of Total 

Responses: 300; 

(6) Average Hours per Response: .5; 

and 

(7) Annual Estimated Number of 

Burden Hours: 150. 

Statutory Authority: National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 

4321 et seq.).
