 Subject: Request for Extension Re ELG ICR 

Attached is a request for an extension specific to EPA's recent ICR re

effluent limitations guidelines.

Public Service Company of New Hampshire (PSNH) is in receipt of your

letter, received on June 25, 2010, requesting information on each of

PSNH’s power plants which have a coal-fired or oil-fired electric

utility steam generating unit. PSNH is happy to provide EPA information

requested in the ICR for coal-fired and oil-fired units. PSNH
respectfully requests, however, that EPA grants an extension of 60 days.

This extension will allow the PSNH staff to balance their efforts most

efficiently and in return provide a comprehensive response to the EPA’s

ICR. (see attached for discussion)

The staff at PSNH would appreciate an extension to this ICR because it

wants to provide EPA with a thorough answer. PSNH knows the importance

of the ICR and wants to ensure it receives the quality of time it

deserves. PSNH appreciates EPA’s understanding when considering this

request and looks forward to a response that will allow PSNH to

participate in the ICR to the extent practical given the current

activities of the personnel. If you have any questions or require

additional information in order to grant this request, please contact

Elizabeth Tillotson, Generation, at 603-634-2440.

Thank you.

Lynn Tillotson
