Pacific Gas & Electric Company;

Notice of Proposed Restricted Service

List for a Programmatic Agreement for

Managing Properties Included in or

Eligible for Inclusion in the National

Register of Historic Places

January 6, 1997.

Rule 2010 of the Commission’s Rules

of Practice and Procedure provides that,

to eliminate unnecessary expense or

improve administrative efficiency, the

Secretary may establish a restricted

service list for a particular phase or

issue in a proceeding (18 CFR

385.2010). The restricted service list

should contain the names of persons on

the service list who, in the judgment of

the decisional authority establishing the

list, are active participants with respect

to the phase or issue in the proceeding

for which the list is established.

The Commission is consulting with

the California Office of Historic

Preservation (hereinafter, ‘‘SHPO’’) and

the Advisory Council on Historic

Preservation (hereinafter, ‘‘Council’’)

pursuant to the Council’s regulations, 36

CFR Part 800, implementing § 106 of the

National Historic Preservation Act, as

amended (16 U.S.C. § 470f), to prepare

a programmatic agreement for managing

historic properties—i.e., those included

in, or eligible for inclusion in, the

National Register of Historic Places—

that may be affected by a license issuing

for Project No. 1988.

The programmatic agreement, when

executed by the Commission, the SHPO,

and the Council, would satisfy the

Commission’s § 106 responsibilities for

all individual undertakings carried out

in accordance with the license until the

license expires or is terminated.

The Commission’s responsibilities

pursuant to the § 106 for Project No.

1988 would be fulfilled through one

programmatic agreement which the

Commission proposes to draft in

consultation with certain parties listed

below. The executed programmatic

agreement would be incorporated into

any order issuing license.

Thus, we propose, as an initial

consideration, to restrict the service list

to the SHPO and the Council, with
Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 7 / Friday, January 10, 1997 / Notices 1449

whom we propose to execute the

Programmatic Agreement. Pacific Gas &

Electric Company, moreover, as

prospective licensee for Project No.

1988, and the Sierra National Forest, the

entity managing the land on which the

project is located, are invited to

participate in consultations to develop

the Programmatic Agreement and to

sign it as concurring parties. Our

proposed restricted service list for

executing a Programmatic Agreement

for Project No. 1988, follows:

Historic Preservation, Department of

Parks and Recreation, P.O. Box

93611–0532, telephone (209) 297–

Any person on the official service list

for the above-captioned proceedings

may request inclusion on the restricted

service list, or may request that a

restricted service list not be established,

by filing a motion to that effect within

15 days of this notice date. An original

and 8 copies of any such motion must

be filed with Secretary, Federal Energy

Regulatory Commission, 888 First

Street, Northeast, Washington, DC

20426, and must be served on each

person whose name appears on the

official service list.

If no such motions are filed, the

restricted service list will be effective at

the end of the 15 day period. Otherwise,

a further notice will be issued ruling on

the motion.
