SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

The Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) regulations at 5 CFR part 1320, 

which implement the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 3501 

et seq., require that interested members 

of the public and affected agencies have 

an opportunity to comment on 

information collection and 

recordkeeping activities (see 5 CFR 

1320.8 (d)). 

On November 14, 2005, the 

Departments of Agriculture, the Interior, 

and Commerce published regulations at 

7 CFR part 1, 43 CFR part 45, and 50 

CFR part 221, to implement section 241 

of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 

(EPAct), Public Law 109–58, which the 

President signed into law on August 8, 

2005. Section 241 of the EPAct had 

added section 33 to the Federal Power 

Act (FPA), 16 U.S.C. 823d, that allowed 

the license applicant or any other party 

to the license proceeding to propose an 

alternative to a condition or prescription 

that one or more of the Departments 

develop for inclusion in a hydropower 

license issued by the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (FERC) under 

mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES

Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 114 / Tuesday, June 16, 2009 / Notices 28521 

the FPA. This provision required that 

the Departments of Agriculture, the 

Interior and Commerce collect the 

information covered by 1094–0001. 

Under FPA section 33, the Secretary 

of the Department involved must accept 

the proposed alternative if the Secretary 

determines, based on substantial 

evidence provided by a party to the 

license proceeding or otherwise 

available to the Secretary, (a) that the 

alternative condition provides for the 

adequate protection and utilization of 

the reservation, or that the alternative 

prescription will be no less protective 

than the fishway initially proposed by 

the Secretary, and (b) that the 

alternative will either cost significantly 

less to implement or result in improved 

operation of the project works for 

electricity production. 

In order to make this determination, 

the regulations require that all of the 

following information be collected: (1) 

A description of the alternative, in an 

equivalent level of detail to the 

Department’s preliminary condition or 

prescription; (2) an explanation of how 

the alternative: (i) If a condition, will 

provide for the adequate protection and 

utilization of the reservation; or (ii) if a 

prescription, will be no less protective 

than the fishway prescribed by the 

bureau; (3) an explanation of how the 

alternative, as compared to the 

preliminary condition or prescription, 

will: (i) Cost significantly less to 

implement; or (ii) result in improved 

operation of the project works for 

electricity production; (4) an 

explanation of how the alternative or 

revised alternative will affect: (i) Energy 

supply, distribution, cost, and use; (ii) 

flood control; (iii) navigation; (iv) water 

supply; (v) air quality; and (vi) other 

aspects of environmental quality; and 

(5) specific citations to any scientific 

studies, literature, and other 

documented information relied on to 

support the proposal. 

This notice of proposed renewal of an 

existing information collection is being 

published by the Office of 

Environmental Policy and Compliance, 

Department of the Interior, on behalf of 

all three Departments, and the data 

provided below covers anticipated 

responses (alternative conditions/

unless it displays a currently valid 

Office of Management and Budget 

control number.
