potential right-of-way grantors, whose 

property may be used temporarily for 

project purposes, or who own homes 

within certain distances of aboveground 

facilities, and anyone who submits 

comments on the project. We will 

update the environmental mailing list as 

the analysis proceeds to ensure that we 

send the information related to this 

environmental review to all individuals, 

organizations, and government entities 

interested in and/or potentially affected 

by the proposed project. 

If we publish and distribute the EA, 

copies will be sent to the environmental 

mailing list for public review and 

comment. If you would prefer to receive 

a paper copy of the document instead of 

the CD version or would like to remove 

your name from the mailing list, please 

return the attached Information Request 

(appendix 2). 

Becoming an Intervenor 

In addition to involvement in the EA 

scoping process, you may want to 

become an ‘‘intervenor’’ which is an 

official party to the Commission’s 

proceeding. Intervenors play a more 

formal role in the process and are able 

to file briefs, appear at hearings, and be 

heard by the courts if they choose to 

appeal the Commission’s final ruling. 

An intervenor formally participates in 

the proceeding by filing a request to 

intervene. Instructions for becoming an 

intervenor are in the ‘‘Document-less 

Intervention Guide’’ under the ‘‘e-filing’’ 

link on the Commission’s Web site. 

Motions to intervene are more fully 

described at http://www.ferc.gov/

resources/guides/how-to/intervene.asp. 

Additional Information 

Additional information about the 

project is available from the 

Commission’s Office of External Affairs, 

at (866) 208–FERC, or on the FERC Web 

site at www.ferc.gov using the 

‘‘eLibrary’’ link. Click on the eLibrary 

link, click on ‘‘General Search’’ and 

enter the docket number, excluding the 

last three digits in the Docket Number 

field (i.e., CP16–27). Be sure you have 

selected an appropriate date range. For 

assistance, please contact FERC Online 

Support at FercOnlineSupport@ferc.gov 

or toll free at (866) 208–3676, or for 

TTY, contact (202) 502–8659. The 

eLibrary link also provides access to the 

texts of formal documents issued by the 

Commission, such as orders, notices, 

and rulemakings. 

In addition, the Commission offers a 

free service called eSubscription which 

allows you to keep track of all formal 

issuances and submittals in specific 

dockets. This can reduce the amount of 

time you spend researching proceedings 

by automatically providing you with 

notification of these filings, document 

summaries, and direct links to the 

documents. Go to www.ferc.gov/docsfiling/esubscription.asp. 

Finally, public meetings or site visits 

will be posted on the Commission’s 

calendar located at www.ferc.gov/

EventCalendar/EventsList.aspx along 

with other related information.

additional information about EPA’s

Abstract: Owners and operators of 

affected facilities are required to comply 

with reporting and record keeping 

requirements for the general provisions 

of 40 CFR part 60, subpart A, as well as 

for the provisions of Subparts T, U, V, 

W, and X. This includes submitting 

initial notifications, performance tests 

and periodic reports and results, and 

maintaining records of the occurrence 

and duration of any startup, shutdown, 

or malfunction in the operation of an 

affected facility, or any period during 

which the monitoring system is 

inoperative. These reports are used by 

EPA to determine compliance with the 

standards. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: New 

and existing facilities that engage in the 

manufacture of phosphate fertilizers and 

have a design capacity of more than 15 

tons of equivalent phosphorous 

pentoxide (P2O5) feed per calendar day. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subparts T, 

U, V, W, and X). 

Estimated number of respondents: 13 

(total). 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 16 / Tuesday, January 26, 2016 / Notices 4289 

Frequency of response: Initially, 

occasionally and semiannually. 

Total estimated burden: 1,390 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.3(b). 

Total estimated cost: $460,000 (per 

year), which includes $320,000 in 

annualized capital/startup and/or 

operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: The 

increase in burden from the mostrecently approved ICR is due to 

accounting for the assumption that all 

sources will spend one hour annually 

reviewing and understanding the rule 

requirements. Previously, the 

assumption was that only new sources 

would incur this burden. 

There is a small decrease in O&M cost 

in this ICR due to rounding of all 

calculated values to three significant 

digits. In addition, there is an increase 

of two annual responses due to a minor 

correction. The previous ICR did not 

account for notifications of operational 

changes in calculating the number of 

responses.

Draft National Pollutant Discharge 

Elimination System (NPDES) Pesticide 

General Permit for Point Source 

Discharges From the Application of 

Pesticides; Reissuance 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of draft permit and 

request for public comment. 

SUMMARY: All ten EPA Regions today are 

proposing for public comment the draft 

2016 National Pollutant Discharge 

Elimination System (NPDES) pesticide 

general permit (PGP)—the ‘‘draft 2016 

PGP.’’ The draft 2016 PGP covers point 

source discharges from the application 

of pesticides to waters of the United 

States. Once finalized, the draft 2016 

PGP will replace the existing permit that 

will expire at midnight on October 31, 

2016. The draft 2016 PGP has the same 

conditions and requirements as the 2011 

PGP and would authorize certain point 

source discharges from the application 

of pesticides to waters of the United 

States in accordance with the terms and 

conditions described therein. EPA 

proposes to issue this permit for five (5) 

years in all areas of the country where 

EPA is the NPDES permitting authority. 

EPA solicits public comment on all 

aspects of the draft 2016 PGP. This 

Federal Register notice describes the 

draft 2016 PGP in general and also 

includes specific topics about which the 

Agency is particularly seeking 

comment. The fact sheet accompanying 

the permit contains supporting 

documentation. EPA encourages the 

public to read the fact sheet to better 

understand the draft 2016 PGP. 

DATES: Comments on the draft 2016 PGP 

must be received on or before March 11, 

2016. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, 

identified by Docket ID No. EPA–HQ– 

OW–2015–0499, to the Federal 

eRulemaking Portal: http://

www.regulations.gov. Follow the online 

instructions for submitting comments. 

Once submitted, comments cannot be 

edited or removed from Regulations.gov. 

EPA may publish any comment received 

to its public docket. Do not submit 

electronically any information you 

consider to be Confidential Business 

Information (CBI) or other information 

whose disclosure is restricted by statute. 

Multimedia submissions (audio, video, 

etc.) must be accompanied by a written 

comment. The written comment is 

considered the official comment and 

should include discussion of all points 

you wish to make. EPA will generally 

not consider comments or comment 

contents located outside of the primary 

submission (i.e., on the web, cloud, or 

other file sharing system). For 

additional submission methods, the full 

EPA public comment policy, 

information about CBI or multimedia 

submissions, and general guidance on 

making effective comments, please visit
