Title: FERC–505, Small Hydropower 

Projects and Conduit Facilities 

including License/Relicense, 

Exemption, and Qualifying Conduit 

Facility Determination. 

OMB Control No.: 1902–0115. 

Abstract: The Hydropower Efficiency 

Act amended statutory provisions 

pertaining to preliminary permits and to 

projects that are exempt from certain 

licensing requirements under the 

Federal Power Act (FPA) in order to 

reduce cost and regulatory burden, and 

in turn, promote hydropower 

development. Specifically, the 

Hydropower Efficiency Act gave the 

Commission authority to extend a 

preliminary permit once for not more 

than two additional years without 

requiring the permittee to apply for a 

successive preliminary permit. The 

Hydropower Efficiency Act also 

expanded the number of projects that 

may qualify for exemptions from certain 

licensing requirements under the FPA 

(i.e., small conduit hydroelectric 

facilities or small hydroelectric power 

projects), and allowed other projects to 

qualify to operate without Commission 

oversight (i.e., qualifying conduit 

hydropower facilities). While the 

Commission-approved revised 

regulations formally implement the 

Hydropower Efficiency Act, the 

Commission has complied with the Act 

since its enactment. 

Type of Respondents: Businesses or 

other for-profit and not-for-profit 

institutions. 

Estimate of Annual Burden: The 

Commission estimates the annual public 

reporting burden for the information 

collection as: 

FERC–505 (SMALL HYDROPOWER PROJECTS AND CONDUIT FACILITIES INCLUDING LICENSE/RELICENSE, EXEMPTION, AND

QUALIFYING CONDUIT FACILITY DETERMINATION)

Title: FERC–512, Preliminary Permit. 

OMB Control No.: 1902–0073. 

Abstract: The information collected 

under the requirements of FERC–512, is 

used by the Commission to implement 

the statutory provisions of the Federal 

Power Act (FPA) 16 U.S.C. The purpose 

of obtaining a preliminary permit is to 

maintain priority of the application for 

a license for a hydropower facility while 

the applicant conducts surveys to 

prepare maps, plans, specifications and 

estimates; conducts engineering, 

economic and environmental feasibility 

studies; and making financial 

arrangements. The conditions under 

which the priority will be maintained 

are set forth in each permit.
