according to a sensor model and

formula for exact projective

computations. The orthophotos are

aligned by rotation, and interior

orientation coordinates of the equivalent

vertical frame images are determined.

The orthophotos are imported as a pair

of overlapping equivalent vertical frame

images according to the interior

orientation coordinates. A digital terrain

model is generated in the DPW using

the overlapping equivalent vertical

frame images. Another orthophoto is

produced using the digital terrain model

to remove the measured terrain

displacements. In an alternative

embodiment, the equivalent vertical

frame images are aligned by using the

classical pair-wise rectification method

or by separately rotating each image

without aligning the orthophotos by

rotation during their creation. In each

embodiment, the sensor model of the

original distorted images is dissociated

from the orthophotos for subsequently

greater distribution and usage of the

stereo imagery. USP 6,084,393—A scour probe

assembly comprises an elongated rigid

tubular member of electrically

insulative material, an anchoring

structure fixed to a distal end of the

tubular member, and a signal

transmission device mounted on the

tubular member. A pair of substantially

parallel electrically conducive sensor

lines are fixed to an external wall of the

tubular member and extend along at

least a portion of an axial length of the

tubular member from a closed proximal

end toward the distal end and extend

through the closed proximal end to an

interior of the tubular member.

Electronic components are disposed in

the interior of the tubular member and

are interposed between ends of the

sensor lines in the interior of the tubular

member and the signal transmission

device mounted in the tubular member.

USP 6,095,052—A bullet comprises a

lead sheet and a zinc foil fixed to the

lead sheet, the sheet and foil being

rolled and pressure formed into a bullet

having generally helical layers of the

lead sheet and zinc foil. The bullet

exhibits an improved environmental

impact on soil, relative to all-lead

bullets.

USP 6,104,298—A roof moisture

detection assembly includes an imaging

system for obtaining thermal and visible

images of a roof surface, an imaging

system support structure for mounting

the imaging system in a position

elevated relative to the roof surface, a

reference target mounted on the roof

surface, and an image-processing system

adapted to compare current thermal and

visible images of the roof surface with

previous thermal and visible images of

the roof surface and detect shapes and

areas of anomalous features, and to

compare the current thermal and visible

images with each other and detect

shapes and areas of anomalous features. USP 6,109,486—Dry sand is ‘‘rained’’

or pluviated into a receptor container

used in the study of soil mechanics. A

supply vessel in the shape of an opentop rectangular box has four vertical

side walls, a perforated bottom tray, and

a slidable perforated tray in contact

therewith, whereby sand flows by

gravity from the supply vessel through

perforations in the stationary and

slidable trays and rains or pluviates into

the receptor container when the slidable

tray is in the ‘‘open’’ position, and sand

is blocked from flowing from the supply

vessel with the slidable tray in the

‘‘closed’’ position. USP 6,116,353—A well assembly

device comprises an outer tubular

sleeve with a first end and second end.

An inner tubular member has a first end

and second end. An inner tubular

member has a first end, and the inner

tubular member is disposed within the

outer tubular sleeve. The inner tubular

member includes a screened portion at

its second end. A tip is frictionally

secured to the second end of the outer

tubular sleeve, so that the outer tubular

sleeve and the tip may selectively

disengage. Applications for an exclusive or

partially exclusive license should

contain the information set forth in 37

CFR 404.8. Applications will be

evaluated utilizing the following

criteria: (1) Ability to manufacture and

market the technology; (2)

Manufacturing and marketing

capability; (3) Time required to bring

technology to market and production

rate; (4) Royalties; (5) Technical

capabilities; and, (6) Small Business

status.

BILLING CODE 3710–92–P

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission

[Docket No. ER01–262–001]

Florida Power Corporation; Notice of

Filing

December 1, 2000.

Take notice that on November 27,

2000, Florida Power Corporation

(Florida Power or Company), tendered

for filing two amended executed

Interconnection and Operating

Agreements (Interconnection

Agreements): One with Shady Hills

Power Company, LLC (Shady Hills) and

one with Reliant Energy Osceola, LLC

(Reliant-Osceola). These two amended

Interconnection Agreements will

replace the ones originally filed by

Florida Power in the above-referenced

docket number on October 30, 2000.

The Company is filing these amended

versions to comply with the Company’s

pro forma Open Access Transmission

Tariff (OATT) with respect to the

establishment of an independent escrow

account for disputed amounts and the

interest rate on unpaid balances. The

Company has also included additional

cost of service data for each

Interconnection Agreement.

The Company requests the same

effective dates originally requested:

October 1, 2000 for the Shady Hills

Interconnection Agreement, and

November 1, 2000 for the ReliantOsceola Interconnection Agreement.

Copies of the filing were served on the

Florida Public Service Commission and

on the official service list in this docket.

Any person desiring to be heard or to

protest such filing should file a motion

to intervene or protest with the Federal

Energy Regulatory Commission, 888

First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426,

in accordance with Rules 211 and 214

of the Commission’s Rules of Practice

and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 and

385.214). All such motions and protests

should be filed on or before December

18, 2000. Protests will be considered by

the Commission to determine the

appropriate action to be taken, but will

not serve to make protestants parties to

the proceedings. Any person wishing to

become a party must file a motion to

intervene. Copies of this filing are on

file with the Commission and are

available for public inspection. This

filing may also be viewed on the

Internet at http://www.ferc.fed.us/

online/rims.htm (call 202–208–2222 for

assistance). Comments and protests may

be filed electronically via the internet in

lieu of paper. See, 18 CFR

385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions

on the Commission’s web site at

http://www.ferc.fed.us/efi/doorbell.htm.
