notice of intent, Federal Register Notice 

(75 FR 76447), USACE announced it 

will prepare a feasibility report and an 

environmental impact statement (EIS)

governments and non-governmental 

organizations. The ANS Control Paper is 

an interim product of GLMRIS. For 

additional information regarding 

GLMRIS, please refer to the project Web

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Commission uses the information 

collected under the requirements of 

FERC–598, ‘‘Self Certification for 

Entities Seeking Exempt Wholesale 

Generator or Foreign Utility Company 

Status’’ (OMB Control No. 1902–0166), 

to implement the statutory provisions of 

Title XII, subchapter F of the Energy 

Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct 2005).1

EPAct 2005 repealed the Public 

Utility Holding Company Act (PUHCA) 

of 1935 in its entirety, including section 

32. This repeal enabled the Commission 

to exempt wholesale generators from 

PUHCA 1935 on a case-by-case basis. 

The Commission amended its 

regulations (in Order No. 667 2) to add 

procedures for self-certification by 

entities seeking exempt wholesale 

generator (EWG) and foreign utility 

company (FUCO) status. Moreover, 

Order No. 667 implemented the repeal 

of PUHCA 1935 and the supplementary 

enactment of PUHCA 2005. This selfcertification is similar to the process 

available to entities that seek qualifying 

facility status. 

An EWG is a ‘‘person engaged 

directly, or indirectly through one or 

more affiliates * * *, and exclusively in 

the business of owning or operating, or 

both owning and operating, all or part 

of one or more eligible facilities and 

selling electric energy at wholesale.’’ 3 A 

FUCO is a company that ‘‘owns or 

operates facilities that are not located in 

any state and that are used for the 

generation, transmission, or distribution 

of electric energy for sale or the 

distribution at retail of natural or 

manufactured gas for heat, light, or 

power, if such company: (1) Derives no 

part of its income, directly or indirectly, 

from the generation, transmission, or 

distribution of electric energy for sale or 

the distribution at retail of natural or 

manufactured gas for heat, light, or 

power, within the United States; and (2) 

neither the company nor any of its 

subsidiary companies is a public-utility 

company operating in the United 

States.’’ 4

An exempt EWG or FUCO or its 

representative may file with the 

Commission a notice of self certification 

demonstrating that it satisfies the 

definition of exempt wholesale 

generator or foreign utility company. In 

the case of EWGs, the person filing a 

notice of self certification must also file 

a copy of the notice of self certification 

with the state regulatory authority of the 

state in which the facility is located and 

that person must also represent to the 

Commission in its submission that it has 

filed a copy of the notice with the 

appropriate state regulatory authority.5

A submission of the information is 

necessary for the Commission to carry 

out its responsibilities under EPAct 

2005.6 The Commission implements its 

responsibilities through the Code of 

Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 18 Part 

366. These filing requirements are 

mandatory. 

Action: The Commission is requesting 

a three-year extension of the current 

expiration date with no changes to the 

existing collection. The information 

filed with the Commission is 

mandatory.
