Forest Service 

Title: Clauses and Forms for 

Operating Plans and Agreements for 

Powerline Facility Operation and 

Maintenance, Inspections, and 

Vegetation Management and Clause for 

Vegetation Management Pilot Program 

Projects. 

OMB Control Number: 0596–NEW. 

Summary of Collection: The 

Consolidated Appropriations Act of 

2018 amended the Federal Land Policy 

and Management Act (FLPMA) to add 

section 512, which requires the Forest 

Service to collect information from 

owners and operators of powerline 

facilities for development of operating 

plans and agreements governing 

vegetation management, operation and 

maintenance, and inspection of 

powerline facilities on National Forest 

System (NFS) lands. The collected 

information will be evaluated by line 

officers and realty specialists at Forest 

Service field units where powerline 

facilities are located to implement the 

requirements of section 512 of FLPMA 

regarding operating plans and 

agreements governing vegetation 

management, operation and 

maintenance, and inspections of 

powerline facilities. 

Need and Use of the Information: 

Section 8630 of the Agriculture 

Improvement Act of 2018 (Farm Bill) 

gives the Forest Service discretion to 

authorize vegetation management pilot 

program projects under lower liability 

standards to holders of an authorization 

for a powerline facility or natural gas 

pipeline. These pilot projects may be 

conducted only on NFS lands that are 

not covered by the special use 

authorization for the powerline facility 

Start Printed Page 26206 or natural gas 

pipeline. The pilot projects must be 

conducted outside the linear right-ofway for the associated powerline facility 

or natural gas pipeline; may not extend 

more than 150 feet from either side of 

the powerline facility or natural gas 

pipeline; and may not have a total width 

of more than 200 feet including both 

sides of the powerline facility or natural 

gas pipeline. 

In addition, the pilot projects may not 

overlap with vegetation management 

conducted under the special use 

authorization for the powerline facility 

or natural gas pipeline, including 

removal and pruning of hazard trees 

outside the linear right-of-way for a 

powerline facility. The liability 

provisions in a special use permit for a 

pilot project have no effect on the 

liability provisions in the special use 

authorization for the powerline facility 

or natural gas pipeline, including the 

liability provisions that apply to 

removal and pruning of hazard trees 

inside and outside the linear right-ofway. Proposed new clause B–39 in 

Forest Service Handbook 2709.11, 

Chapter 50, section 52.2, would provide 

for authorizing vegetation management 

pilot projects consistent with section 

8630 of the Farm Bill and Title V of the 

Federal Land Policy and Management 

Act, section 28 of the Mineral Leasing 

Act, and their implementing 

regulations. 

Description of Respondents: 

Individuals, private sector, business and 

nonprofit entities and state, local, and 

tribal governmental. 

Number of Respondents: 54. 

Frequency of Responses: Reporting: 

On occasion; Annually.
