Energy. 

ACTION: Notice and Request for 

Comments. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Energy’s 

(DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy (EERE) invites public 

comment on a proposed collection of 

information that DOE/EERE is 

developing for submission to the Office 

of Management and Budget (OMB) 

pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction 

Act of 1995. Comments are invited on: 

(a) Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

agency, including whether the 

information shall have practical utility; 

(b) 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; 

(c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, 

and clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (d) ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on respondents, including through the 

use of automated collection techniques 

or other forms of information 

technology. 

DATES: Comments regarding this 

proposed information collection must 

be received on or before April 14, 2014. 

If you anticipate difficulty in submitting 

comments within that period, contact 

the person listed in ADDRESSES as soon 

as possible. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments may be 

sent to Lisa Jorgensen at: U.S. 

Department of Energy, 15013 Denver 

West Parkway, Golden, CO 80401, by 

fax at (730–356–1790), or by email at 

EEREQComments@go.doe.gov. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Requests for additional information or 

copies of the EERE Environmental 

Questionnaire should be directed to Lisa 

Jorgensen at EEREQComments@

go.doe.gov. The EERE Environmental

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

information collection request contains: 

(1) OMB No. New; 

(2) Information Collection Request 

Title: Office of Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy (EERE) 

Environmental Questionnaire; 

(3) Type of Request: New; 

(4) Purpose: The DOE’s EERE 

provides federal funding through federal 

assistance programs to businesses, 

industries, universities, and other 

groups for renewable energy and energy 

efficiency research and development 

and demonstration projects. The 

National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA) of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) 

requires that an environmental analysis 

be completed for all major federal 

actions significantly affecting the 

environment including projects entirely 

or partly financed by federal agencies. 

To effectively perform environmental 

analyses for these projects, the DOE’s 

EERE needs to collect project-specific 

information from federal financial 

assistance awardees. DOE’s EERE has 

developed its Environmental 

Questionnaire to obtain the required 

information and ensure that its 

decision-making processes are 

consistent with NEPA as it relates to 

renewable energy and energy efficiency 

research and development and 

demonstration projects; 

(5) Annual Estimated Number of Total 

Responses: 300; 

(6) Average Hours per Response: .5; 

and 

(7) Annual Estimated Number of 

Burden Hours: 150. 

Statutory Authority: National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 

4321 et seq.). 

Issued in Golden, CO, on February 4, 2014.
