marine mammal species under the
Endangered Species Act, which is
required every five years. Current
federal regulatory permits and
authorizations expire in May 2016.
The cumulative impacts of past,
present, and other reasonably
foreseeable future actions are expected
to result in impacts on marine mammals
in the Temporary Maritime Activities
Area, but the contribution would be
small compared to other actions. The
Draft Supplemental EIS/OEIS indicates
that the incremental contribution of the
No Action Alternative, Alternative 1, or
Alternative 2 to all other resource areas
analyzed would be negligible.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Western Area Power Administration
Agency Information Collection
Extension
Western Area Power
Administration, DOE.
ACTION: Submission for Office of
Management and Budget review;
Request for comments.
AGENCY:

Western Area Power
Administration (Western), an agency
within the Department of Energy (DOE),
has submitted an extension to an
existing Information Collection Request
(ICR) to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for review, comment and
approval, as required under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The
ICR seeks a 3-year extension for
Western’s Applicant Profile Data form
(APD), OMB Control No. 1910–5136.
The ICR described below identifies the
request, including the anticipated
public burdens. The ICR is necessary for
the proper performance of Western’s
functions. Western markets a limited
amount of Federal power. Due to the
high demand for Western’s power and
limited amount of available power,
Western needs to be able to collect
information under the ICR to evaluate
who will receive an allocation. This
public process only determines the
information Western will collect in its
ICR. The actual allocation of Federal
power will be done through a separate
process and is outside the scope of this
notice.
DATES: To ensure consideration,
comments regarding this collection
must be received on or before

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Statutory Authority
Reclamation Laws are a series of laws
arising from the Desert Land Act of 1872
and include, but are not limited to: The
Desert Land Act of 1872, Reclamation
Act of 1902, Reclamation Project Act of
1939, and the Acts authorizing each
individual project such as the Central
Valley Project Authorizing Act of 1937.1
The Reclamation Act of 1902
established the Federal reclamation
program.2 The basic principle of the
Reclamation Act of 1902 was that the
United States, through the Secretary of
the Interior, would build and operate
irrigation works from the proceeds of
public land sales in the 16 arid Western
states (a 17th was later added). The
Reclamation Project Act of 1939
expanded the purposes of the
reclamation program and specified
certain terms for contracts that the
Secretary of the Interior enters into to
1 See Ch. 107, 19 stat. 377 (1872), Ch. 1093, 32
Stat. 388 (1902), Ch. 418, 53 Stat. 1187 (1939), Ch.
832, 50 Stat. 844, 850 (1937), all as amended and
supplemented.

furnish water and power.3 Congress
enacted the Reclamation Laws for
purposes that include enhancing
navigation, protection from floods,
reclaiming the arid lands in the Western
United States, and for fish and wildlife.4
Congress, generally, intended the
production of power would be a
supplemental feature of the multipurpose water projects authorized under
the Reclamation Laws.5 No contract
entered into by the United States for
power may impair the efficiency of the
project for irrigation purposes.6 Section
5 of the Flood Control Act of 1944 is
read in pari materia with Reclamation
Laws.7 In 1977, the Department of
Energy Organization Act transferred the
power marketing functions of the
Department of the Interior to Western, a
separate and distinct administration
within DOE.8
II. Purpose of Proposed Collection

tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

Western is collecting and will
continue to collect the data under its
APD to properly perform its function of
marketing a limited amount of Federal
hydropower. The information Western
collects is voluntary. Due to the high
demand for Western’s power and
limited amount of available power,
Western will use the information
collected in the APD (and has used the
information collected under the current
OMB-approved control number), in
conjunction with its marketing plans, to
determine an entity’s eligibility and,
ultimately, who will receive an
allocation of Federal power. As a result,
the information Western collects is both
necessary and useful.
Western notes the Paperwork
Reduction Act and associated Federal
Register notice is a process whereby
Western obtains approval from OMB to
collect information from the public. It is
a legal requirement Western must
comply with before requesting potential
preference customers to submit an
application for power. The Paperwork
Reduction Act process is not the process
where interested parties request an
allocation of Federal power. The
allocation of power from Western is
outside the scope of this process and is
completed in a separate process by each
Western region, when required.

III. Background to This Process and
Responses to Comments
A. Background
On April 2, 2014, in compliance with
the Paperwork Reduction Act,9 Western
published a notice in the Federal
Register inviting comments on
extending Western’s APD, OMB Control
No. 1910–5136.10 Western provided a
60-day comment period. As part of that
notice, Western also invited comments
on: (1) Whether the proposed continued
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility; (2) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of burden, including
the validity of the methodology and
assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology. Western is not
proposing any significant changes in the
content and format of the APD. As
stated in the 60-day Federal Register
notice, Western posted the changes and
a description on why the changes were
made on its Web page.11 Western also
noted in its Invitation for Comments
that there was an error made in 2011
entering the information into
ROCIS.gov, the government’s regulatory
information clearing house.12 The
ROCIS error identified Western as
collecting 30 APDs on an average
annual basis instead of 33.3. In the final
Federal Register notices in both 2008
and 2011, Western determined, on
average, it will collect 33.3 APDs on an
average annual basis.13 For the 2014–
2017 period, Western will continue to
collect 33.3 responses on an average
annual basis. Western will have this
error corrected when the information is
inputted into ROCIS for the 2014–2017
period.
In April 2014, concurrent with the
publication of the Federal Register
notice, Western posted an Invitation for
Comments on its Web page. Western
emailed over 1,000 potentially
interested entities and customer groups,
informing them of the publication of the
Federal Register notice and Invitation

territory, which includes, but is not
limited to, California, Nevada, Arizona,
Utah, New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming,
Montana, Texas, North Dakota and
South Dakota.
B. Response to Comments
Western received no public
comments.
IV. Information Collection Request:
Applicant Profile Data, OMB Control
No. 1910–5136
Western has submitted to OMB the
request to extend Western’s APD. The
APD and responses to the APD will not
be part of a system of records covered
by the Privacy Act 14 and will be
available under the Freedom of
Information Act.15
A copy of the APD is available on
Western’s Web page at ww2.wapa.gov.
As discussed, Western is not making
any significant changes in the content
and format of the APD. As of February
2014, applicants can complete the APD
directly online at Western’s Web page.
The APD, the administrative record for
the proposal justifying its continued
use, and identifying burden hours are
available for inspection and copying at
Western’s Corporate Services Office.
As part of this process, Western has
identified what it believes is the
minimum amount of information
Western needs for its regional offices to
properly perform the functions of the
agency. Due to the variations that may
develop in each region, the region,
through its marketing plan, may
determine that it does not need to
collect all of the information contained
in the APD. As a result, Western will
allow each region to use subsets of the
form, where one region’s APD may
request less information than another
region’s APD. Also, to ensure equitable
treatment of applications, when issuing
a call for applications, Western may
provide additional directions to clarify
certain sections of the APD, e.g.,
identify the year or years to use in
preparing the APD. Rather than over
collect unnecessary information,
Western seeks to collect only the
minimal amount of information it
needs. Western evaluated the possibility
of using the same APD form, instructing
applicants to fill out only certain
sections; however, this approach could
lead to an applicant ignoring or
misunderstanding Western’s

instructions and providing unnecessary
information. Using a subset of
information and providing clarifying
directions will lead to a more consistent
process and will minimize the time an
applicant uses to complete the APD.
To receive an allocation of Federal
power from Western, the applicant must
provide the information requested in the
APD. If the requested information is not
applicable or is not available, the
applicant will note it on the APD.
Western will request, in writing,
additional information from any
applicant whose application is
deficient. Western will notify the
applicant when the application is due.
In the event an applicant fails to provide
sufficient information to allow Western
to make a determination regarding
eligibility by the due date, the
application will not be considered.
V. Paperwork Reduction Requirements

tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

A. Introduction
1. OMB Number: Western’s existing
OMB Number is 1910–5136. This
number is displayed on the front page
of the APD. It expires on September 30,
2014.
2. Title: Applicant Profile Data.
3. Type of Review: Western is seeking
to extend its APD for 3 years.
4. Purpose: The APD is necessary for
the proper performance of Western’s
functions. Western markets a limited
amount of Federal power. Western has
discretion to determine who will receive
an allocation. Due to the high demand
for Western’s power and limited amount
of available power under established
marketing plans, Western needs to be
able to collect information to evaluate
who will receive an allocation. As a
result, the information Western collects
is both necessary and useful. This
public process only determines the
information Western will collect in its
application. The actual allocation of
Federal power will be done through a
separate process and is outside the
scope of this proceeding.
5. Respondent: The response is
voluntary. However, if an entity seeks
an allocation of Federal power, the
applicant must submit an APD. Western
has identified the following class of
respondents as the most likely to apply:
Municipalities, cooperatives, public
utilities, irrigation districts, Native
American Tribes, and Federal and State
agencies. The respondents will be

VerDate Mar<15>2010

16:23 Aug 21, 2014

Jkt 232001

located in Arizona, California, Colorado,
Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Montana,
Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, North
Dakota, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, and
Wyoming. The information submitted
on the APD will not be part of a system
of records covered by the Privacy Act 16
and will be available under the Freedom
of Information Act.17
6. Annual Estimated Number of
Respondents: The responses will be
periodic and occur when Western has
power available under an allocation
process. Based on historical data,
Western anticipates it will receive
approximately 100 requests for power
during the 3-year period when the OMB
Clearance Number is in effect. This
results in an estimated annual average
of 33.3 respondents.
7. Number of Burden Hours and
Estimated Reporting and Record
Keeping Costs:
a. Initial Application: Western
anticipates that it will take less than 8
hours to complete the APD. Once the
respondent completes the APD, it will
submit the APD to Western for
Western’s review. After submitting the
APD, provided the APD is complete and
no clarification is required, Western
does not anticipate requiring any further
information for the APD from the
applicant, unless the applicant is
successful in obtaining a power
allocation. The applicant submits only
one APD. It does not submit an APD
every year. If the applicant receives a
power allocation, the applicant will
need to complete a standard contract to
receive its power allocation. Western’s
standard contract terms are outside the
scope of this process.
b. Recordkeeping: There is no
mandatory recordkeeping requirement
for the applicant if it does not receive
an allocation of Federal power. In such
case, any recordkeeping of the APD by
a respondent is voluntary. For those
entities that receive a Federal power
allocation, Western requires the
successful applicant to keep the
information for 3 years after the
applicant signs its Federal power
contract. The 3-year record retention
policy will allow Western sufficient
time to administer the contract and to
ensure the applicant provided factual

17 See

Frm 00019

information in its application. A 3-year
record retention policy will have little
impact on most businesses in the
electric utility industry. Western
anticipates that it would take less than
1 hour per successful candidate, per
year, for recordkeeping purposes.
Western anticipates that in a 3-year
period, Western will have
approximately 30 successful applicants.
c. Methodology: Based on the total
number of burden hours and the total
number of applications described above,
Western expects that over a 3-year
period, the total burden hours to
complete the APD is 800 hours (100
applicants over 3 years × 8 hours per
applicant). This converts to an annual
hourly burden of 266.667 hours. An
entity will only complete the APD once.
It is not required each year.
Based on the above, Western
anticipates that there will be additional
cost burdens for recordkeeping of 1 hour
per year for each applicant who receives
a Federal power allocation. Western
anticipates that over the course of 3
years there will be 30 successful
applicants. The power may be allocated
in year 1, year 2 or year 3. For the
purposes of determining the cost
burden, Western will presume all 30
applicants received an allocation in year
1. As a result, the annual hourly burden
for recordkeeping is 30 hours.
For the purposes of this cost burden
analysis, Western is assuming that a
utility staff specialist will complete the
APD. Western estimates a utility staff
specialist rate, including administrative
overhead, to be approximately $112/
hour. For recordkeeping, Western
estimates an administrative support rate
of $56/hour. Based on the above,
Western estimates the total annual cost
as (266.667 hour/year × $112/hour) +
(30 hour/year × $56/hour) = $31,546.67
per year.
Using the above estimates, the cost to
complete the APD is a one-time cost of
$896. In addition to the one-time cost,
the applicant, if it successfully receives
a power allocation, will incur an
additional expense of 1 hour for
recordkeeping per year × $56 per hour
for a total recordkeeping cost of $168 for
3 years. Thus on a per applicant basis,
assuming the applicant receives a
Federal power allocation, the total cost
for the applicant over a 3-year period is
$1,064.

The procedure and process for the
allocation of power shall be the subject
matter of a separate notice and is
outside the scope of this process.
B. Does the collection of data avoid
unnecessary duplication?
To avoid unnecessary duplication,
only entities that desire a new Western
allocation are required to submit an
APD.
As it relates to each of the
components of the APD, there is no
duplication. Section 1 is information
Western needs to determine who the
applicant is, whether the applicant is a
statutorily-defined preference entity,18
and whether the applicant is ready,
willing, and able to receive and/or
distribute Federal power. Section 2
identifies the amount of Federal power
that the applicant requests. Section 3
identifies the applicant’s loads. Section
4 identifies the applicant’s resources.
Section 5 identifies the applicant’s
transmission delivery arrangements to
receive Federal power. Section 6 is
voluntary and provides the applicant
with the ability to provide any
additional information. Section 7 is an
attestation that the information
provided is true and accurate to the best
of the applicant’s knowledge.
C. Does the collection reduce the burden
on the respondent, including small
entities, to the extent practicable and
appropriate?
tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

Number of
responses per
respondent

The information requested is the
minimum amount of information
needed to determine whether the
applicant qualifies as a statutorilydefined preference entity and is ready,

e.g., 43 U.S.C. 485h(c).

VerDate Mar<15>2010

16:23 Aug 21, 2014

willing, and able to receive an allocation
of Federal power.19
D. Does the collection use plain,
coherent, and unambiguous language
that is understandable to the
respondent?
The collection uses plain, coherent,
and unambiguous language that is
understandable to the target audience.
The terms are those used in the electric
utility industry. Western does not
market power to individual members of
the public such as homeowners or
shopkeepers. Preference entities are
statutorily-designated potential
customers who generally are involved in
the power business. As a result, the
language used in the application is
understandable to the target audience.
E. Is the collection consistent with and
compatible with the respondent’s
current reporting and recordkeeping
practices to the maximum extent
practicable?
The information collection is
voluntary. Western will use the
information to determine whether an
applicant qualifies as a preference entity
to receive an allocation of Federal
power. As discussed above, there is no
mandatory recordkeeping requirement
on the applicant if it does not receive an
allocation of Federal power. For those
entities that receive a Federal power
allocation, Western requires that they
keep the information for 3 years after
Western grants the power allocation and
the applicant signs a Federal power
contract. The 3-year record retention
policy for such applicants allows
Western sufficient time to administer
the contract and to ensure the applicant

Sfmt 4703

provided factual information in its
application. Western anticipates that a
3-year record retention policy will have
little impact on most businesses in the
power industry who will keep the APD
as part of their normal business records.
The procedure and process for the
allocation of power shall be the subject
matter of a separate notice and is
outside the scope of this process.
F. Does the collection indicate the
retention period for any recordkeeping
requirements for the respondent?
The APD identifies that there is no
recordkeeping requirement for the
respondent if it does not receive an
allocation of Federal power. It also
identifies that applicants who receive an
allocation of Federal power must retain
the records for 3 years.
G. Does the collection inform the public
of the information the public needs to
exercise scrutiny concerning the agency
need to collect information (the reasons
the information is collected, the way it
is used, an estimate of the burden,
whether the response is voluntary,
required to obtain a benefit, or
mandatory and a statement that no
person is required to respond unless a
valid OMB control number is
displayed)?
If an entity desires a Federal power
allocation from Western, Western needs
certain information to determine
whether the entity is eligible to receive
power. Western has a limited amount of
power available and uses its discretion
in allocating power. In order to use its
discretion in allocating power, Western
will use the information collected on
the application. Western will not accept
incomplete applications. Western will
work with any entities that may need

assistance in completing the
application. No person is required to
submit any information unless a valid
OMB control number is displayed. No
person is required to submit any
information unless they desire a Federal
power allocation.
H. Is the collection developed by an
office that has planned and allocated
resources for the efficient and effective
management and use of the information
collected?
Western’s power marketing offices
will administer and evaluate the
applications. Use and management of
the collected information has been
factored into each office’s functions and
resource requirements. Historically,
Western has requested the same relative
information from applicants and
effectively used Western resources to
utilize and manage the information in
its determinations. Each power
marketing office will make a
recommendation to Western’s
Administrator on which applicant(s)
should be awarded a Federal power
allocation based on the information
contained in the APD. Western’s
Administrator shall use his discretion in
the final award of power allocations.
The procedure and process for the
allocation of power shall be the subject
matter of a separate notice and is
outside the scope of this process.
I. Does the collection use effective and
efficient statistical survey methods?
Since the information collected is
used to determine whether an applicant
receives an allocation of Federal power,
this section is inapplicable.

J. Does the collection use information
technology to the maximum extent
practicable to reduce the burden and to
improve data quality, agency efficiency,
and responsiveness to the public?
The APD will be accessible for
downloading via Western’s Web page.
Western will accept email submission of
the APD, as well as submission via fax
or regular mail. Applicants also can
enter the information on an electronic
APD on Western’s Web page.
VII. Invitation for Comments
Western invites public comment on
its request to extend its APD that
Western submitted to OMB pursuant to
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
The Paperwork Reduction Act requires
OMB to make a decision on the ICR
within 60 days after this publication or
receipt of the proposed collection of
information, whichever is later.20

5 CFR 1320.10(b).
