Regulations part 651, Environmental 

Analysis of Army Actions (AR 200–2), 

and DLA’s regulation for NEPA 

compliance, DLA Regulation 1000.22, 

Environmental Considerations in DoD 

Actions. However, because DLA is a 

tenant on Red River Army Depot, a U.S. 

Army-supported installation, this EA is 

subject to compliance with U.S. Army 

implementing regulations for NEPA. 

DLA has determined that the Proposed 

Action would not have a significant 

impact on the human environment 

within the context of NEPA. Therefore, 

the preparation of an environmental 

impact statement is not required. 

Comments received by the end of the 

30-day period will be considered when 

preparing the final version of the 

documents. The EA is available 

electronically at the Federal 

eRulemaking Portal at http://

www.regulations.gov, and in hardcopy 

at the County Clerk’s Office at the Bowie 

County Courthouse, 710 James Bowie 

Drive, New Boston, TX 75570.

3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the general 

public and Federal agencies with an 

opportunity to comment on proposed, 

revised, and continuing collections of 

information. This helps the Department 

assess the impact of its information 

collection requirements and minimize 

the public’s reporting burden. It also 

helps the public understand the 

Department’s information collection 

requirements and provide the requested 

data in the desired format. ED is 

soliciting comments on the proposed 

information collection request (ICR) that 

is described below. The Department of 

Education is especially interested in

following issues: (1) Is this collection 

necessary to the proper functions of the 

Department; (2) will this information be 

processed and used in a timely manner; 

(3) is the estimate of burden accurate; 

(4) how might the Department enhance 

the quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and (5) how 

might the Department minimize the 

burden of this collection on the 

respondents, including through the use 

of information technology. Please note 

that written comments received in 

response to this notice will be 

considered public records. 

Title of Collection: Personal 

Authentication Service (PAS) for FSA 

ID. 

OMB Control Number: 1845–0131. 

Type of Review: An extension of an 

existing information collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: 

Individuals or Households. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 55,300,000. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 14,715,000. 

Abstract: Federal Student Aid (FSA) 

replaced the PIN system with the 

Personal Authentication Service (PAS) 

which will employ an FSA ID, a 

standard user name and password 

solution. In order to create an FSA ID to 

gain access to certain FSA systems 

(FAFSA on the Web, NSLDS, 

StudentLoans.gov, etc.) a user must 

register on-line for an FSA ID account. 

The FSA ID allows the customer to have 

a single identity, even if there is a name 

change or change to other personally 

identifiable information. The 

information collected to create the FSA 

ID enables electronic authentication and 

authorization of users for FSA webbased applications and information and 

protects users from unauthorized access 

to user accounts on all protected FSA 

sites.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Project No. 14859–000] 

Big Chino Valley Pumped Storage LLC; 

Notice of Preliminary Permit 

Application Accepted for Filing and 

Soliciting Comments, Motions To 

Intervene, and Competing Applications 

On September 29, 2017, Big Chino 

Valley Pumped Storage LLC (Big Chino) 

filed an application for a preliminary 

permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the 

Federal Power Act, proposing to study 

the feasibility of the Big Chino Valley 

Pumped Storage Project (project) to be 

located near Chino Valley in Yavapai, 

Coconino, and Mohave Counties, 

Arizona. The sole purpose of a 

preliminary permit, if issued, is to grant 

the permit holder priority to file a 

license application during the permit 

term. A preliminary permit does not 

authorize the permit holder to perform 

any land-disturbing activities or 

otherwise enter upon lands or waters 

owned by others without the owners’ 

express permission. 

The proposed project will be closedloop. Water to initially fill the reservoirs 

and required make-up water will be 

pumped from locally available 

groundwater sources. The proposed 

project would consist of an upper and 

lower reservoir, a 10.1-mile-long water 

conveyance system connecting the two 

reservoirs, a powerhouse, and three 500- 

kV transmission lines. A 2,900-footlong, 360-foot-high rockfill, concretefaced dam would be constructed to form 

the 50-acre upper reservoir, which 

would have a storage capacity of 19,739- 

acre-foot at an elevation of 6,560 feet. A 

2,700-foot-long, 250-foot-high rockfill, 

concrete-faced dam would be 

constructed to form a 50-acre lower 

reservoir with a storage capacity of 

19,811-acre-foot at an elevation of 5,294 

feet. Water would be conveyed from the 

upper reservoir to the lower reservoir 

via two upper reservoir inlet/outlets, 

two vertical shafts, two horizontal 

power tunnels, two penstock manifold 

tunnels, and eight 12-foot-diameter, 

steel-lined penstocks. The powerhouse 

would contain eight pump-turbine/ 

motor-generator units rated at 250 MW 

each. From the powerhouse, water will 

discharge into eight, 16-foot diameter 

draft tubes from each unit and then into 

two, 32-foot-diameter tailrace tunnels, 

which will discharge into the lower 

reservoir through a lower reservoir 

inlet/outlet structure. Project power 

would be transmitted through a 30-milelong 500-kilovolt (kV), line traversing 

northerly to interconnect with the 

existing Arizona Public Service ownedand operated Eldorado-Moenkopi 500- 

kV line or a planned and sited new Dine 

Navajo Transmission Project 500-kV 

line from Moenkopi to Marketplace; a 

54-mile long 500-kV traversing westerly 

to interconnect with an existing Western 

Area Power Administration owned and 

operated 230-kV line from Prescott to 

Peacock that would be upgraded to 500 

kV; and a 47-mile-long 500-kV line 

traversing easterly to interconnect with 

two Navajo Southern Transmission 500- 

kV lines owned by participants of the 

Navajo Generating Plant and operated 

by Arizona Public Service. 

The estimated annual generation of 

the project would be 4,614 gigawatthours.
