26686 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 105 / Wednesday, June 3, 2009 / Notices 

the output of an intermittent generator 

located within Western’s Control Area 

and a delivery schedule from that 

generator serving load located outside of 

Western’s Control Area. Intermittent 

generators serving load outside 

Western’s Control Area will be required 

to pseudo-tie or dynamically schedule 

their generation to another Control Area. 

An intermittent resource, for the limited 

purpose of these schedules, is an 

electric generator that is not 

dispatchable and cannot store its fuel 

source and therefore cannot respond to 

changes in system demand or respond 

to transmission security constraints. 

Western proposes to base the rate on 

deviation bands as follows: 

(i) Deviations within +/¥1.5 percent 

(with a minimum of 2 MW) of the 

scheduled transaction to be applied 

hourly to any generator imbalance that 

occurs as a result of Transmission 

Customer’s scheduled transaction(s) 

will be netted on a monthly basis and 

settled financially, at the end of the 

month, at 100 percent of the average 

incremental cost; 

(ii) Deviations greater than ±1.5 

percent up to 7.5 percent (or greater 

than 2 MW up to 10 MW) of the 

scheduled transaction to be applied 

hourly to any generator imbalance that 

occurs as a result of Transmission 

Customer’s scheduled transaction(s) 

will be settled financially, at the end of 

each month. When energy delivered in 

a schedule hour from the generation 

resource is less than the energy 

scheduled, the charge is 110 percent of 

incremental cost. When energy 

delivered from the generation resource 

is greater than the scheduled amount, 

the credit is 90 percent of the 

incremental cost; and 

(iii) Deviations greater than ±7.5 

percent (or 10 MW) of the scheduled 

transaction to be applied hourly to any 

generator imbalance that occurs as a 

result of the Transmission Customer’s 

scheduled transaction(s) will be settled 

at 125 percent of Western’s highest 

incremental cost for the day when 

energy delivered in a schedule hour is 

less than the energy scheduled or 75 

percent of Western’s lowest daily 

incremental cost when energy delivered 

from the generation resource is greater 

than the scheduled amount. As an 

exception, an intermittent resource will 

be exempt from this deviation band and 

will pay the deviation band charges for 

all deviations greater than the larger of 

1.5 percent or 2 MW. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, 

deviations from scheduled transactions 

in order to respond to directives by the 

Transmission Provider, a balancing 

authority, or a reliability coordinator 

shall not be subject to the deviation 

bands identified above and, instead, 

shall be settled financially, at the end of 

the month, at 100 percent of 

incremental cost. Such directives may 

include instructions to correct 

frequency decay, respond to a reserve 

sharing event, or change output to 

relieve congestion. 

Western’s incremental cost will be 

based upon a representative hourly 

energy index or combination of indexes. 

The index to be used will be posted on 

Western’s OASIS http:// 

www.oatioasis.com/wapa/index.html at 

least 30 days prior to use for 

determining the Western incremental 

cost and will not be changed more often 

than once per year unless Western 

determines that the existing index is no 

longer a reliable price index. 

Legal Authority 

Western is proposing transmission 

and ancillary service rates for the P– 

SMBP—ED in accordance with section 

302 of the Department of Energy (DOE) 

Organization Act (42 U.S.C. 7152). This 

section transferred to and vested in the 

Secretary of Energy the power marketing 

functions of the Secretary of the 

Department of Interior and the Bureau 

of Reclamation under the Reclamation 

Act of 1902 (ch. 1093, 32 Stat. 388), as 

amended and supplemented by 

subsequent laws, particularly section 

9(c) of the Reclamation Project Act of 

1939 (43 U.S.C. 485h(c)); and section 5 

of the Flood Control Act of 1944 (16 

U.S.C. 825s); and other acts that 

specifically apply to the projects 

involved. 

By Delegation Order No. 00–037.00, 

effective December 6, 2001, the 

Secretary of Energy delegated: (1) The 

authority to develop power and 

transmission rates 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 the FERC. 

Existing DOE procedures for public 

participation in power rate adjustments 

(10 CFR part 903) were published on 

September 18, 1985 (50 FR 37835). 

After review of public comments, and 

possible amendments or adjustments, 

Western will recommend the Deputy 

Secretary of Energy approve the 

proposed rates on an interim basis. 

Availability of Information 

All brochures, studies, comments, 

letters, memorandums, or other 

documents that Western initiates or uses 

to develop the proposed rates are 

available for inspection and copying at 

the Upper Great Plains Regional Office, 

located at 2900 4th Avenue North, 

Billings, Montana. Many of these 

documents and supporting information 

are also available on its Web site under 

the ‘‘2009 Transmission and Ancillary 

Services Rate Adjustment Process’’ 

section located at http://www.wapa.gov/ 

ugp/rates/default.htm. 

Regulatory Procedure Requirements: 

Environmental Compliance 

In compliance with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 

(NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321–4347), Council 

on Environmental Quality Regulations 

(40 CFR parts 1500–1508), and DOE 

NEPA Regulations (10 CFR part 1021), 

Western is in the process of determining 

whether an environmental assessment 

or an environmental impact statement 

should be prepared or if this action can 

be categorically excluded from those 

requirements. 

Determination Under Executive Order 

12866 

Western has an exemption from 

centralized regulatory review under 

Executive Order 12866; accordingly, no 

clearance of this notice by the Office of 

Management and Budget is required. 

Dated: May 15, 2009.

(Renewal). 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 2104.03, 

OMB Control No. 2050–0192. 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on July 31, 2009. Under OMB 

regulations, the Agency may continue to 

conduct or sponsor the collection of 

information while this submission is 

pending at OMB. 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: The Small Business Liability 

Relief and Brownfields Revitalization 

Act (Pub. L. 107–118) was signed into 

law on January 11, 2002. The Act 

amends the Comprehensive 

Environmental Response, 

Compensation, and Liability Act 

(CERCLA), as amended, and authorizes 

EPA to award grants to states, tribes, 

local governments, and other eligible 

entities to assess and clean up 

brownfields sites. EPA requires 

Brownfields program grant recipients to 

report information to EPA on the uses 

and accomplishments associated with 

the funded brownfields activities. EPA 

uses this information to meet Federal 

stewardship responsibilities to manage 

and track how program funds are being 

spent, to evaluate the performance of 

the Brownfields Cleanup and 

Redevelopment Program, to meet the 

Agency’s reporting requirements under 

the Government Performance Results 

Act, and to report to Congress and other 

program stakeholders on the status and 

accomplishments of the grants program. 

This ICR addresses the burden 

imposed on grant recipients that are 

associated with those reporting and 

recordkeeping requirements that are 

specific to grants awarded under the 

Small Business Liability Relief and 

Brownfields Revitalization Act. This 

ICR renewal modifies the annual 

reporting and recordkeeping burden 

under the previous ICR. The modified 

burden reflects an increase in the 

number of respondents subject to the 

reporting and recordkeeping 

requirements, and improvements to the 

reporting forms based on EPA’s 

experience implementing the grant 

program. EPA is also modifying the 

reporting form to simplify and clarify 

the reporting requirements, which will 

improve the accuracy of information 

reported and minimize the burden to 

grant recipients. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 5 hours per 

response for job training grant 

recipients, and 1.25 hours per response 

for subtitle A assessment, cleanup, and 

revolving loan fund and subtitle C grant 

recipients. 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. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: Local 

governments, Indian Tribes and nonprofit organizations. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

544. 

Frequency of Response: Bi-annual for 

subtitle C grant recipients; quarterly for 

subtitle A grant recipients. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

16,550. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$1,584,479, includes $0 annualized 

capital or O&M costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

increase of 7,867 hours in the total 

estimated burden currently identified in 

the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR 

Burdens. This increase is primarily due 

to an additional $100 million in grant 

funding for the EPA Brownfields 

Program in the American Recovery and 

Reinvestment Act of 2009, the majority 

of which is going towards awarding 

approximately 200 additional grants in 

the first year of the ICR. EPA had to 

include these stimulus grantees into its 

ICR in order to collect Property Profile 

Form data or Job Training Form data to

Abstract: The National Emission 

Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants 

(NESHAP) for Printing, Coating and 

Dyeing of Fabrics and Other Textiles 

were proposed on July 11, 2002 (67 FR 

46028), promulgated on May 29, 2003 

(68 FR 32172), and amended on August 

4, 2004 (69 FR 47001). These standards 

apply to each existing, new or 

reconstructed printing coating slashing, 

dyeing or finishing of fabric and other 

textiles. 

Owners or operators of the affected 

facilities must make the following 

notifications: (1) Initial notification; (2) 

notification of initial performance test; 

and (3) notification of compliance 

status. Affected sources must submit an 

initial compliance status report, and a 

startup, shutdown, and malfunction 

(SSM) plan. Respondents are also 

required to maintain records of the 

occurrence and duration of any startup, 

shutdown, or malfunction. 

Any owner or operator subject to the 

provisions of this subpart must maintain 

a file of these measurements and retain 

the file for at least five years following 

the collection of such measurements, 

maintenance reports, and records. All 

reports are sent to the delegated state or 

local authority. In the event that there 

is no such delegated authority, the 

reports are sent directly to the EPA 

regional office. 

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 are listed 

in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15, 

and are identified on the form and/or 

instrument, if applicable. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 69 hours per 

response. Burden means the total time, 

effort, or financial resources expended 

by persons to generate, maintain, retain, 

or disclose or provide information either 

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
