Commission 

[Project No. 14676–000] 

Mid-Atlantic Hydro, LLC; Notice of 

Preliminary Permit Application 

Accepted for Filing and Soliciting 

Comments, Motions To Intervene, and 

Competing Applications 

On April 21, 2015, Mid-Atlantic 

Hydro, 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 

Milford Hydroelectric Project (Milford 

Project) to be located on Republic River, 

near Junction City, Geary County, 

Kansas. 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 

the following: (1) A 30-foot-long, 50- 

foot-wide, 30-foot-high bifurcation 

structure connecting to the end of an 

existing 615.5-foot-long, 21-foot-wide 

concrete horseshoe-shaped conduit 

serving as the outlet for the Milford Dam 

Reservoir; (2) a 7-foot-diameter penstock 

extending from the bifurcation to the 

powerhouse; (3) a 50-foot-long, 50-footwide, 30-foot-high concrete powerhouse 

located downstream of the existing 

Milford Dam and adjacent to the south 

abutment, containing two 1.5 megawatts 

Francis turbine generating units; (4) a 

75-foot-long, 50-foot-wide concrete 

tailrace directing flows from the 

powerhouse back to the existing stilling 

basin; (5) a 4,440-foot-long, 12.7-kilovolt 

transmission line delivering the project 

power to a distribution line belonging to 

the local electric cooperative; (6) a 40- 

foot-long, 40-foot-wide switchyard 

containing a three-phase step-up 

transformer, protective equipment, and 

metering; (7) appurtenant facilities. The 

estimated annual generation of the 

Milford Project would be 15,000 

megawatt-hours annually.

information collection request (ICR), 

‘‘Data Reporting Requirements for State 

and Local Vehicle Emission Inspection 

and Maintenance (I/M) Programs’’ (EPA 

ICR No.1613.05, OMB Control No. 

2060–0252) to the Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) for review and 

approval in accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 

3501 et seq.). Before doing so, EPA is 

soliciting public comments on specific 

aspects of the proposed information 

collection as described below. This is a 

proposed extension of the ICR, which is 

currently approved through November 

30, 2015. 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. 

DATES: Comments must be submitted on 

or before July 14, 2015. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, 

referencing Docket ID No. EPA–HQ– 

OAR–2008–0707, online using

method), or by mail to: EPA Docket 

Center, Environmental Protection 

Agency, Mail Code 28221T, 1200 

Pennsylvania Ave. NW., Washington,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Supporting documents which explain in 

detail the information that the EPA will 

be collecting are available in the public 

docket for this ICR. The docket can be

dockets. 

Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of 

the PRA, EPA is soliciting comments 

and information to enable it to: (i) 

Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the Agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; (ii) evaluate the 

accuracy of the Agency’s estimate of the 

burden of the 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. 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. At that time, EPA 

will issue another Federal Register 

notice to announce the submission of 

the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to 

submit additional comments to OMB. 

Abstract: Clean Air Act section 182 

and EPA’s regulations (40 CFR part 51, 

subpart S) establish the requirements for 

state and local I/M programs that are 

included in state implementation plans 

(SIPs). To provide general oversight and 

support to these programs, the U.S. 

Environmental Protection Agency 

requires that state agencies with basic 

and enhanced I/M programs collect two 

varieties of reports for submission to 

EPA: 

• An annual report providing general 

program operating data and summary 

statistics, addressing the program’s 

current design and coverage, a summary 

of testing data, enforcement program 

efforts, quality assurance and quality 

control efforts, and other miscellaneous 

information allowing for an assessment 

of the program’s relative effectiveness; 

and 

• A biennial report on any changes to 

the program over the two-year period 

and the impact of such changes, 

including any weaknesses discovered 

and corrections made or planned. 

General program effectiveness is 

determined by the degree to which a 

program misses, meets, or exceeds the 

emission reductions committed to in the 

state’s approved SIP, which, in turn, 

must meet or exceed the minimum 

emission reductions expected from the 

relevant performance standard, as 

promulgated under EPA’s revisions to 

40 CFR, part 51, subpart S, in response 

to requirements established in section 

182 of the Clean Air Act. This 

information is used by EPA to 

determine a program’s progress toward 

meeting requirements under 40 CFR, 

part 51, subpart S, and to provide 

background information in support of 

program evaluations. Additional 

information regarding the current 

renewal of this ICR as well as previous 

renewals can be found in Docket ID No. 

EPA–HQ–OAR–2008–0707. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: state 

I/M program managers. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

mandatory (40 CFR 51.366). 

Estimated number of respondents: 28 

state air quality agencies (total). 

Frequency of response: annual and 

biennial. 

Total estimated burden: 2,408 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b) 

Total estimated cost: $147,462 (per 

year), includes $0 annualized capital or 

operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in Estimates: There is no 

change in the total estimated respondent 

burden compared with the ICR currently 

approved by OMB.
