FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Christina McGlosson, Acting Director, 

Whistleblower Office, Commodity 

Futures Trading Commission, (202) 

418–5051; email: cmcglosson@cftc.gov, 

and refer to OMB Control No. 3038– 

0082. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: The Whistleblower Provision of 

section 23 of the Commodity Exchange 

Act (OMB Control No. 3038–0082). This 

is a request for extension of a currently 

approved information collection. 

Abstract: 17 CFR 165.3(a) requires the 

submission of information to the 

Commission on a Form TCR. The Form 

TCR, ‘‘Tip, Complaint, or Referral,’’ and 

the instructions thereto, are designed to 

capture basic identifying information 

about a complainant and elicit sufficient 

information to determine whether the 

conduct alleged suggests a violation of 

the Commodity Exchange Act. 17 CFR 

165.7(b)(1) requires the submission of 

information to the Commission on a 

Form WB–APP. The Form WB–APP, 

‘‘Application for Award for Original 

Information Provided Pursuant to 

Section 23 of the Commodity Exchange 

Act,’’ and the instructions thereto, are 

designed to elicit sufficient information 

to determine whether and to what 

extent a claimant qualifies for a 

whistleblower award. 

An agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to, a collection of information 

unless it displays a currently valid OMB 

control number.2 On November 21, 

2023, the Commission published in the 

Federal Register notice of the proposed 

extension of this information collection 

and provided 60 days for public 

comment on the proposed extension, 88 

FR 81064 (‘‘60-Day Notice’’). The 

Commission received one comment 

requesting individual staff feedback on 

each submission received, in addition to 

the automated reply currently sent by 

the CFTC as notice of receipt. We 

appreciate the comment but would like 

to clarify that determinations on the 

submitted applications (including their 

supplements) are provided in due 

course according to the procedures 

outlined in 17 CFR part 165. Given the 

non-public nature of investigations, it 

would not be feasible for the CFTC to 

provide individual feedback on each 

submission received. 

Burden Statement: The respondent 

burden for this collection is estimated to 

be as follows: 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

1800 per year. 

Estimated Average Burden Hours per 

Respondent: 0.5 hour. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: 900 hours. 

Frequency of Collection: Once. 

There are no capital costs or operating 

and maintenance costs associated with 

this collection.

Commission 

[Project No. 5679–041] 

Energy Stream, LLC; Notice of Intent 

To Prepare an Environmental 

Assessment 

On July 15, 2022, Energy Stream, LLC 

filed an application for a subsequent 

license for the 512-kilowatt M.S.C. 

Hydroelectric Project (M.S.C. Project or 

project; FERC No. 5679). The M.S.C. 

Project is located on the Quinebaug 

River, in Windham County, 

Connecticut. 

In accordance with the Commission’s 

regulations, on November 14, 2023, 

Commission staff issued a notice that 

the project was ready for environmental 

analysis (REA notice). Based on the 

information in the record, including 

comments filed on the REA notice, staff 

does not anticipate that licensing the 

project would constitute a major federal 

action significantly affecting the quality 

of the human environment. Therefore, 

staff intends to prepare an 

Environmental Assessment (EA) on the 

application to license the M.S.C. Project. 

The EA will be issued and circulated 

for review by all interested parties. All

1The Council on Environmental Quality’s (CEQ) 

regulations under 40 CFR 1501.10(b)(1)(2022) 

require that EAs be completed within 1 year of the 

federal action agency’s decision to prepare an EA. 

This notice establishes the Commission’s intent to 

prepare an EA for the M.S.C. Project. See National 

Environmental Policy Act, 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq., 

as amended by section 107(g)(1)(B)(iii) of the Fiscal 

Responsibility Act of 2023, Public Law 118–5, 

section 4336a, 137 Stat. 42. 

comments filed on the EA will be 

analyzed by staff and considered in the 

Commission’s final licensing decision. 

The Commission’s Office of Public 

Participation (OPP) supports meaningful 

public engagement and participation in 

Commission proceedings. OPP can help 

members of the public, including 

landowners, environmental justice 

communities, Tribal members, and 

others to access publicly available 

information and navigate Commission 

processes. For public inquiries and 

assistance with making filings such as 

interventions, comments, or requests for 

rehearing, the public is encouraged to 

contact OPP at (202) 502–6595 or OPP@
