[Project No. 13734–002] 

Lock + Hydro Friends Fund XLVI; 

Notice of Preliminary Permit 

Application Accepted for Filing and 

Soliciting Comments, Motions To 

Intervene, and Competing Applications 

On April 1, 2014, Lock + Hydro 

Friends Fund XLVI 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 Hildebrand Lock & Dam Project 

(Hildebrand Project or project) to be 

located at the U.S. Army Corps of 

Engineers’ (Corps) Hildebrand Lock and 

Dam on the Monongahela River in 

Monongahela County, West Virginia. 

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 landdisturbing 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 new 55-foot-long by 

40-foot-high Large Frame Module 

(LFM); (2) two pre-fabricated concrete 

walls if needed; (3) a new 50-foot-wide 

by 100-foot-long tailrace; (4) five lowhead modular bulb hydroelectric 

turbine-generators each rated at 1.5 

megawatts; (5) a low-voltage, 36.7- 

kilovolt (kV) distribution line from the 

generator to the new switchyard; (6) a 

new 25-foot-wide by 50-foot-long 

switchyard; and (7) a new 69-kV 

transmission line approximately 1,000 

feet long from the new switchyard to an 

existing substation. The estimated 

annual generation of the Hildebrand 

Project would be 66,974 megawatthours.

request to revise/modify certain of its 

EPA-authorized programs to allow 

electronic reporting. 

DATES: EPA’s approval is effective

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. Subpart D of 

CROMERR requires that state, tribal 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 obtain EPA approval. 

Subpart D 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, § 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. 

Once an authorized program has EPA’s 

approval to accept electronic documents 

under certain programs, CROMERR 

§ 3.1000(a)(4) requires that the program 

keep EPA apprised of any changes to 

laws, policies, or the electronic 

document receiving systems that have 

the potential to affect the program’s 

compliance with CROMERR § 3.2000. 

On January 31, 2013, the North 

Dakota Department of Health (ND DOH) 

submitted an amended application 

titled ‘‘Electronic Reporting Information 

System’’ for revisions/modifications of 

its EPA-approved electronic reporting 

program under its EPA-authorized 

programs under title 40 CFR to allow 

new electronic reporting. EPA reviewed 

ND DOH’s request to revise/modify its 

EPA-authorized programs and, based on 

this review, EPA determined that the 

application met 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 North 

Dakota’s request to revise/modify its 

following EPA-authorized programs to 

allow electronic reporting under 40 CFR 

Parts 51, 60–63, 70, 122, 146, 262, 264– 

266, 268, 270, 280, and 403, is being 

published in the Federal Register: 

Part 52—Approval and Promulgation 

of Implementation Plans; 

Part 62—Approval and Promulgation 

of State Plans for Designated Facilities 

and Pollutants; 

Part 70—State Operating Permit 

Programs; 

Part 123—EPA Administered Permit 

Programs: The National Pollutant 

Discharge Elimination System; 

Part 147—State Underground 

Injection Control Programs; 

Part 272—Approved State Hazardous 

Waste Management Programs; and 

Part 281—Approval of State 

Underground Storage Tank Programs; 

Part 403—General Pretreatment 

Regulations for Existing and New 

Sources of Pollution. 

ND DOH was notified of EPA’s 

determination to approve its application 

with respect to the authorized programs 

listed above.
