Wing and South Wing) at projected
future vessel traffic levels. The Proposed
Action is continuing the existing
operations at the BP Cherry Point Dock
with two berths, one principally for
import of crude oil and the other for
distribution of refined petroleum
products.
The Corps has been directed by Ninth
Circuit Court of Appeals to complete an
EIS on the impacts of the permitted
dock.
The Draft EIS was prepared in
accordance with the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: FERC–510, Application for
Surrender of Hydropower License.
OMB Control No.: 1902–0068.
Type of Request: Three-year extension
of the FERC–510 information collection
requirements with no changes to the
current reporting requirements.
Abstract: The information collected
under the requirements of FERC–510 is
used by the Commission to implement
the statutory provisions of sections 4(e),
6 and 13 of the Federal Power Act (FPA)
(16 U.S.C. 797(e), 799 and 806). Section
4(e) gives the Commission authority to
issue licenses for the purposes of
constructing, operating and maintaining
dams, water conduits, reservoirs,
powerhouses, transmission lines or
other power project works necessary or
convenient for developing and
improving navigation, transmission and
utilization of power using bodies of
water over which Congress has
jurisdiction. Section 6 gives the

Commission the authority to prescribe
the conditions of licenses including the
revocation or surrender of the license.
Section 13 defines the Commission’s
authority to delegate time periods for
when a license must be terminated if
project construction has not begun.
Surrender of a license may be desired by
a licensee when a licensed project is
retired or not constructed or natural
catastrophes have damaged or destroyed
the project facilities.
FERC–510 is the application for the
surrender of a hydropower license. The
information is used by Commission staff
to determine the broad impact of such
surrender. The Commission will issue a
notice soliciting comments from the
public and other agencies and conduct
a careful review of the application
before issuing an order for Surrender of
a License. The order is the result of an
analysis of the information produced,
i.e., economic, environmental concerns,
etc., which is examined to determine if
the application for surrender is
warranted. The order implements the
existing regulations and is inclusive for
surrender of all types of hydropower
licenses issued by FERC and its
predecessor, the Federal Power
Commission. The Commission
implements these mandatory filing
requirements in the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) under 18 CFR 6.1–
6.4.
Type of Respondents: Private or
Municipal Hydropower Licensees.
Estimate of Annual Burden: 1 The
Commission estimates the annual public
reporting burden for the information
collection as:

provide information to or for a Federal agency. For
further explanation of what is included in the

information collection burden, reference 5 Code of
Federal Regulations 1320.3.
