Comment: An Interested Party sought 

assurance that Western, in its base 

charge and rates calculation, take into 

account the new Reclamation 24-month 

study. The revised study should show 

equalization releases from Lake Powell 

beginning in May and continuing 

through September. The end result 

could be increased efficiencies and a 

reduction in the per-unit cost for 

capacity charged to customers. 

Response: Western will utilize the 

final master schedule which includes 

the most current 24-month study prior 

to submitting the rate package for 

approval. The final master schedule is 

normally completed in early June and 

will have the most up to date 

information available at that time. 

BCP Electric Service Rates 

BCP electric service rates are designed 

to recover an annual revenue 

requirement that includes operation and 

maintenance expenses, payments to 

states, visitor services, the uprating 

program, replacements, investment 

repayment, and interest expense. 

Western’s Power Repayment Study 

(PRS) allocates the projected annual 

revenue requirement for electric service 

equally between capacity and energy. 

Availability of Information 

Information about this base charge 

and rate adjustment, including power 

repayment studies, comments, letters, 

memorandums, and other supporting 

material developed or maintained by 

Western that was used to develop the 

FY 2009 BCP Rates, is available for 

public review in the Desert Southwest 

Customer Service Regional Office, 

Western Area Power Administration, 

615 South 43rd Avenue, Phoenix, 

Arizona. The information is also 

available on Western’s Web site at 

http://www.wapa.gov/dsw/pwrmkt/BCP/ 

RateAdjust.htm. 

Ratemaking Procedure Requirements 

BCP electric service rates are 

developed under the Department of 

Energy Organization Act (42 U.S.C. 

7101–7352), through which the power 

marketing functions of the Secretary of 

the Interior and Reclamation under the 

Reclamation Act of 1902 (ch. 1093, 32 

Stat. 388), as amended and 

supplemented by subsequent 

enactments, particularly section 9(c) of 

the Reclamation Project Act of 1939 (43 

U.S.C. 485h(c)), and other acts that 

specifically apply to the project 

involved, were transferred to and vested 

in the Secretary of Energy, acting by and 

through Western. 

By Delegation Order No. 00–037.00, 

effective December 6, 2001, the 

Secretary of Energy delegated: (1) The 

authority to develop long-term power 

and transmission rates on a nonexclusive basis to Western’s 

Administrator, (2) the authority to 

confirm, approve, and place such rates 

into effect on an interim basis to the 

Deputy Secretary of Energy, and (3) the 

authority to confirm, approve, and place 

into effect on a final basis, to remand or 

to disapprove such rates to FERC. 

Existing DOE procedures for public 

participation in electric service rate 

adjustments are located at 10 CFR part 

903, effective September 18, 1985 (50 

FR 37835), and 18 CFR part 300. DOE 

procedures were followed by Western in 

developing the rate formula approved 

by FERC on June 22, 2006, at 115 FERC 

¶ 61362.2

The Boulder Canyon Project 

Implementation Agreement requires 

that, prior to October 1 of each rate year, 

Western determine the annual rates for 

the next fiscal year. The rates for the 

first rate year, and each fifth rate year 

thereafter, will become effective 

provisionally upon approval by the 

Deputy Secretary of Energy subject to 

final approval by FERC. For all other 

rate years, the rates will become 

effective on a final basis upon approval 

by the Deputy Secretary of Energy. 

Western will continue to provide 

annual rates to the BCP Contractors by 

October 1 of each year using the same 

ratesetting formula. The rates are 

reviewed annually and adjusted upward 

or downward to assure sufficient 

revenues are collected to achieve 

payment of all costs and financial 

obligations associated with the project. 

Each fiscal year, Western prepares a PRS 

for the BCP to update actual revenues 

and expenses including interest, 

estimates of future revenues, expenses, 

and capitalized costs. 

The BCP ratesetting formula includes 

a base charge, an energy rate, and a 

capacity rate. The ratesetting formula 

was used to determine the BCP FY 2009 

Rates. 

Western proposes a FY 2009 base 

charge of $70,213,497, an energy rate of 

9.31 mills/kWh, and a capacity rate of 

$1.73/kWmonth be approved on a final 

basis. 

Consistent with procedures set forth 

in 10 CFR part 903 and 18 CFR part 300, 

Western held a consultation and 

comment period. The notice of the 

proposed FY 2009 Rates for electric 

service was published in the Federal 

Register on February 1, 2008 (73 FR 

6177). 

Under Delegation Order Nos. 00–

037.00 and 00–001.00B, and in 

compliance with 10 CFR part 903 and 

18 CFR part 300, I hereby approve the 

FY 2009 Rates for BCP Electric Service 

on a final basis under Rate Schedule 

BCP–F7 through September 30, 2009. 

Dated: August 1, 2008. 

Jeffrey F. Kupfer, 

Acting Deputy Secretary.

What Information is EPA Particularly 

Interested in? 

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

the Paperwork Reduction Act, EPA 

specifically solicits 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 assumptions used; 

(iii) Select appropriate entities to 

receive the questionnaire in terms of 

what units (e.g., facilities, offices) 

should be surveyed; how many should 

be surveyed; and the criteria used to 

select them; 

(iv) Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

(v) 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. In 

particular, EPA is requesting comments 

from very small businesses (those that 

employ less than 25 people) on 

examples of specific additional efforts 

that EPA could make to reduce the 

paperwork burden for very small 

businesses affected by this collection. 

EPA solicits comments about the 

questions in each questionnaire and 

their applicability to the targeted 

industry. EPA solicits suggestions on 

how the questions could be changed to 

be more understandable and to 

appropriately address facility 

operations. EPA solicits comments 

about the scope of the ICR and whether 

EPA has adequately described the 

industry sectors that would be subject to 

the data collection. EPA plans to 

include health services establishments 

including hospitals, hospices, long-term 

care facilities (LTCFs), and veterinary 

facilities. EPA may consider including 

veterinary clinics, medical and dental 

offices, as well as university and prison 

health clinics within the scope of 

inquiry and encourages these groups to 

comment and meet with EPA to discuss 

their practices. EPA solicits comments 

on whether EPA has adequately 

described the population in terms of 

inclusions and exclusions, and what 

additional entities, if any, should be 

included in the scope of the ICR. In 

DCN 05999 (Docket ID No. EPA–HQ–

OW–2008–0517), EPA provides more 

explanation about its definitions and 

other considerations related to 

identifying the appropriate population 

for the data collection. 

What Should I Consider When I 

Prepare My Comments for EPA? 

You may find the following 

suggestions helpful for preparing your 

comments: 

1. Explain your views as clearly as 

possible and provide specific examples. 

2. Describe any assumptions that you 

used.

3. Provide copies of any technical 

information and/or data you used that 

support your views. 

4. If you estimate potential burden or 

costs, explain how you arrived at the 

estimate that you provide. 

5. Offer alternative ways to improve 

the collection activity. 

6. Make sure to submit your 

comments by the deadline identified 

under DATES. 

7. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, 

be sure to identify the docket ID number 

assigned to this action in the subject 

line on the first page of your response. 

You may also provide the name, date, 

and Federal Register citation. 

What Information Collection Activity or 

ICR Does This Apply to? 

Affected Entities: Entities potentially 

affected by this action are health 

services establishments including 

hospitals, hospices, long-term care 

facilities (LTCFs), and veterinary 

hospitals. In addition, EPA may include 

veterinary clinics, medical and dental 

offices, and university and prison health 

clinics. 

Title: Study of Unused 

Pharmaceuticals from Medical and 

Veterinary Facilities (New). 

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR No. 2316.01, 

OMB Control No. 2040–NEW. 

ICR Status: This ICR is for a new 

information collection activity. 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. The OMB control numbers for 

EPA’s regulations in title 40 of the CFR, 

after appearing in the Federal Register 

when approved, are listed in 40 CFR 

Part 9, are displayed either by 

publication in the Federal Register or 

by other appropriate means, such as on 

the related collection instrument or 

form, if applicable. The display of OMB 

control numbers in certain EPA 

regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR 

Part 9. 

Abstract: This Information Collection 

Request (ICR) will support EPA’s study 

of unused pharmaceuticals from health 

care facilities which is part of EPA’s 

overall strategy to address the risks 

associated with emerging contaminants. 

This four-pronged strategy is aimed at 

improving science, communicating 

risks, identifying partnership and 

stewardship opportunities, and taking 

regulatory action as appropriate. 

This ICR involved two questionnaires, 

one for medical facilities and one for 

veterinary facilities. EPA identified the 

health services industry as a candidate 

for a study in the 2006 Clean Water Act 

(CWA) Section 304(b) Effluent 

Guidelines Review (71 FR 76661; 

December 21, 2006). EPA is collecting 

information about disposal of unused 

pharmaceuticals to better understand 

the current management practices and 

the magnitude of discharges to waters of 

the United States. 

In most respects, the discharge of 

pharmaceuticals to publicly owned 

treatment works (POTWs) is not 

currently regulated or monitored under 

the federal Clean Water Act and thus, 

wastewater data are generally not 

available. Facilities within the health 

services industry (e.g., hospitals, 

hospices, long-term care facilities 

(LTCFs), and veterinary facilities) may 

dispose of excess, expired, and 

unwanted medications (referred to 

collectively as ‘‘unused 

pharmaceuticals’’) down the drain or 

toilet, after which drugs may pass 

through POTWs and into surface waters. 

EPA believes that the health services 

industry accounts for the majority of 

institutional (nonresidential) discharges 

of unused pharmaceuticals to 

wastewater. Areas for investigation 

include: 

• What are the current industry 

practices for disposing of unused 

pharmaceuticals? 

• Which pharmaceuticals are being 

disposed of and at what quantities? 

• What are the options for disposing 

of unused pharmaceuticals other than 

down the drain or toilet? 

• What factors influence disposal 

decisions? 

• Do disposal practices differ within 

industry sectors? 

• What Best Management Practices 

(BMPs) could facilities implement to 

reduce the generation of unused 

pharmaceuticals? 

• What reductions in the quantities of 

pharmaceuticals discharged to POTWs 

would be achieved by implementing 

BMPs or alternative disposal methods? 

• What are the costs of current 

disposal practices compared to the costs 

of implementing BMPs or alternative 

disposal methods? 

To collect this information, EPA will 

distribute a mandatory questionnaire to 

a sample of medical and veterinary 

facilities. There are two versions of the 

questionnaire, one tailored to facilities 

that treat people (i.e., hospitals, 

hospices, and LTCFs) and one tailored 

to facilities that treat animals (i.e., 

veterinary facilities). Copies of both 

questionnaires are available as 

attachments to the supporting 

statement. 

To complete the questionnaire, 

respondents will be required to report 

30 days worth of pharmaceutical 

disposal data, which may require 

development of a tracking system for 

unused pharmaceuticals and time to 

train staff on proper tracking protocols. 

EPA estimates the total respondent 

burden and costs associated with 

completing the questionnaires are 

approximately 145,000 hours and 

$5,200,000. There are no capital costs 

associated with responding to these 

questionnaires. Operation and 

maintenance (O&M) costs include only 

photocopying and postage or express 

delivery. In its calculations of the 

burden estimates, EPA has assumed that 

one facility in seven (approximately 

3,500 facilities) would be selected to 

receive the detailed questionnaire. 

However, in the actual selection 

process, EPA intends to use a more 

sophisticated statistical technique to 

select facilities. Numerous textbooks 

and technical journals describe a variety 

of ways of drawing valid probability 

samples to collect information that will 

be representative of the entire 

population (e.g., Sampling Techniques 

by William Cochran, 1963). In DCN 

05999 (Docket ID No. EPA–HQ–OW–

2008–0517), EPA describes several 

designs that it intends to investigate 

further before the second Federal 

Register notice. The selected sampling 

methodology may result in a larger or 

smaller sample size. One sample design 

that EPA is considering is a two-phase 

design. First, EPA would send a 

screener questionnaire to a large 

segment of the population. This 

screener questionnaire would only 

contain a few simple questions, but the 

information would allow EPA to better 

identify appropriate facilities for the 

detailed questionnaire. Although EPA 

might send more questionnaires (i.e., 

screeners plus detailed questionnaires) 

under this approach, it might result in 

a lower overall burden to industry if 

fewer facilities were selected for the 

detailed questionnaire. 

After evaluating comments, EPA will 

decide whether or not to include 

veterinary clinics, medical and dental 

offices, and university and prison health 

clinics. EPA will then change the 

estimated size of the respondent 

universe as needed. The public will 

have an opportunity to comment on the 

selected scope and methodology 

following publication of the second 

Federal Register notice associated with 

this project. Respondents have the 

option to identify any data submitted as 

confidential. EPA will treat all 

confidential submissions according to 

approved CBI procedures. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 41 hours per 


sroberts on PROD1PC70 with NOTICES
46906 Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 156 / Tuesday, August 12, 2008 / Notices 

response. Burden means the total time, 

effort, or financial resources expended 

by persons to generate, maintain, retain, 

or disclose or provide information to, or 

for, a Federal agency. This includes the 

time needed to review instructions; 

develop, acquire, install, and utilize 

technology and systems for the purposes 

of collecting, validating, and verifying 

information, processing and 

maintaining information, and disclosing 

and providing information; adjust the 

existing ways to comply with any 

previously applicable instructions and 

requirements which have subsequently 

changed; train personnel to be able to 

respond to a collection of information; 

search data sources; complete and 

review the collection of information; 

and transmit or otherwise disclose the 

information. 

EPA estimates that the total annual 

burden hours would be approximately 

145,000 at a cost of $5,200,000. 

Additional details on burden can be 

found in the supporting statement. An 

overview of the questionnaire burden is 

provided below: 

• Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 3,544. 

• Frequency of response: 1 time. 

• Estimated total average number of 

responses for each respondent: 1. 

• Estimated total annual burden 

hours: 145,304. 

• Average burden hours per 

respondent: 41. 

• Average cost per respondent: 

$1,463. 

What Is the Next Step in the Process for 

This ICR? 

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 pursuant to 5 CFR 

1320.12. At that time, EPA will issue 

another Federal Register notice 

pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to 

announce the submission of the ICR to 

OMB and the opportunity to submit 

additional comments to OMB. If you 

have any questions about this ICR or the 

approval process, please contact the 

technical persons listed under FOR
