DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Project No. 13800–000] 

Osprey II, LLC; Notice of Preliminary 

Permit Application Accepted for Filing 

and Soliciting Comments, Motions To 

Intervene, and Competing Applications 

October 19, 2010. 

On June 28, 2010, Osprey II, LLC filed 

an application for a preliminary permit, 

pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal 

Power Act (FPA), proposing to study the 

feasibility of the 649 Water Street 

Project to be located on the 

Cobbosseecontee Stream, in Kennebec 

County, Maine. The sole purpose of a 

preliminary permit, if issued, is to grant 

the permit holder priority to file a 

license application during the permit 

term. A preliminary permit does not 

authorize the permit holder to perform 

any land-disturbing activities or 

otherwise enter upon lands or waters 

owned by others without the owners’ 

express permission. 

The proposed project would consist 

of: (1) A new intake structure with trash 

racks; (2) a new 6-foot-diameter, 1,900- 

foot-long buried concrete penstock; (3) a 

new approximately 400-square-foot 

powerhouse containing two new 

turbines and generators with a total 

installed capacity of 1.5 megawatts; 

(4) a new tailrace; (5) a new 7.2 or 12.47- 

kilovolt transmission line connecting to 

an existing distribution line 

immediately adjacent to the proposed 

powerhouse; and (6) appurtenant 

facilities. The project would have an 

estimated annual generation of 8,760 

megawatt-hours.

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

(iii) Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

(iv) Minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated electronic, 

mechanical, or other technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology, e.g., permitting 

electronic submission of responses. In 

particular, EPA is requesting comments 

from very small businesses (those that 

employ less than 25) on examples of 

specific additional efforts that EPA 

could make to reduce the paperwork 

burden for very small businesses 

affected by this collection.

What information collection activity or 

ICR does this apply to? 

Affected Entities: Entities potentially 

affected by this action are private sector 

and State, Local, or Tribal governments. 

Title: Hazardous Waste Specific Unit 

Requirements, and Special Waste 

Processes and Types. 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1572.08, 

OMB Control No. 2050–0050. 

ICR status: This ICR is currently 

scheduled to expire on March 31, 2011. 

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. The OMB control numbers for 

EPA’s regulations in title 40 of the CFR, 

after appearing in the Federal Register 

when approved, are listed in 40 CFR 

part 9, are displayed either by 

publication in the Federal Register or 

by other appropriate means, such as on 

the related collection instrument or 

form, if applicable. The display of OMB 

control numbers in certain EPA 

regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR 

part 9. 

Abstract: This ICR provides a 

discussion of all of the information 

collection requirements associated with 

specific unit standards applicable to 

owners and operators of facilities that 

treat, store, or dispose of hazardous 

wastes as defined by 40 CFR Part 261. 

It includes a detailed description of the 

data items and respondent activities 

associated with each requirement and 

with each hazardous waste management 

unit at a facility. The specific units and 

processes included in this ICR are: Tank 

systems, Surface impoundments, Waste 

piles, Land treatment, Landfills, 

Incinerators, Thermal treatment, 

Chemical, physical, and biological 

treatment, Miscellaneous (subpart X), 

Drip pads, Process vents, Equipment 

leaks, Containment buildings, Recovery/ 

recycling. 

With each information collection 

covered in this ICR, EPA is aiding the 

goal of complying with its statutory 

mandate under RCRA to develop 

standards for hazardous waste 

treatment, storage, and disposal 

facilities, to protect human health and 

the environment. Without the 

information collection, the agency 

cannot assure that the facilities are 

designed and operated properly. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average as follows: 

Unit type Hours per 

response 

Subpart I: Containers ................. 73 

Subpart J: Tank Systems ........... 74 

Subpart K: Surface Impoundments ...................................... 78 

Subpart L: Waste Piles ............... 17

previously applicable instructions and 

requirements which have subsequently 

changed; train personnel to be able to 

respond to a collection of information; 

search data sources; complete and 

review the collection of information; 

and transmit or otherwise disclose the 

information. 

The ICR provides a detailed 

explanation of the Agency’s estimate, 

which is only briefly summarized here: 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 3,326. 

Frequency of response: on occasion. 

Estimated total average number of 

responses for each respondent: 1.6864. 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

626,476 hours. 

Estimated total annual costs: 

$26,735,793, which includes 

$22,795,000 annualized labor and 

$3,940,793 annualized capital and O&M 

costs. 

What is the next step in the process for 

this ICR? 

EPA will consider the comments 

received and amend the ICR as 

appropriate. The final ICR package will 

then be submitted to OMB for review 

and approval pursuant to 5 CFR 

1320.12. At that time, EPA will issue 

another Federal Register notice 

pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to 

announce the submission of the ICR to 

OMB and the opportunity to submit 

additional comments to OMB. If you

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces EPA’s 

approval, under regulations for CrossMedia Electronic Reporting, of the State 

of Arkansas’s request to revise certain of 

its EPA-authorized programs to allow 

electronic reporting. 

DATES: EPA’s approval is effective 

October 26, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

October 13, 2005, the final Cross-Media 

Electronic Reporting Rule (CROMERR) 

was published in the Federal Register 

(70 FR 59848) and codified as part 3 of 

title 40 of the CFR. CROMERR 

establishes electronic reporting as an 

acceptable regulatory alternative to 

paper reporting and establishes 

requirements to assure that electronic 

documents are as legally dependable as 

their paper counterparts. Under Subpart 

D of CROMERR, state, tribe or local 

government agencies that receive, or 

wish to begin receiving, electronic 

reports under their EPA-authorized 

programs must apply to EPA for a 

revision or modification of those 

programs and get EPA approval. Subpart 

D also provides standards for such 

approvals based on consideration of the 

electronic document receiving systems 

that the state, tribe, or local government 

will use to implement the electronic 

reporting. Additionally, in § 3.1000(b) 

through (e) of 40 CFR part 3, subpart D 

provides special procedures for program 

revisions and modifications to allow 

electronic reporting, to be used at the 

option of the state, tribe or local 

government in place of procedures 

available under existing programspecific authorization regulations. An 

application submitted under the subpart 

D procedures must show that the state, 

tribe or local government has sufficient 

legal authority to implement the 

electronic reporting components of the 

programs covered by the application 

and will use electronic document 

receiving systems that meet the 

applicable subpart D requirements. 

On April 27, 2010, the State of 

Arkansas Department of Environmental 

Quality (ARDEQ) submitted an 

application for its Net Discharge 

Monitoring Report (NetDMR) electronic 

document receiving system for revision 

of its 40 CFR part 123—National 

Pollutant Discharge Elimination System 

(NPDES) State Program Requirements 

EPA-authorized program for electronic 

reporting of Discharge Monitoring 

Report (DMR) information under 40 CFR 

part 122. 

EPA has reviewed ARDEQ’s request to 

revise its EPA-authorized program and, 

based on this review, EPA has 

determined that the application meets 

the standards for approval of authorized 

program revisions/modifications set out 

in 40 CFR part 3, subpart D. In 

accordance with 40 CFR 3.1000(d), this 

notice of EPA’s decision to approve 

Arkansas’s request for revision to its 40 

CFR part 123—NPDES State Program 

Requirements authorized program for 

electronic reporting of discharge 

monitoring report information is being 

published in the Federal Register. 

ARDEQ was notified of EPA’s 

determination to approve its application 

with respect to the authorized program 

listed above.
