AGENCY:

EIA submitted an information
collection request for extension as
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995. The information collection
requests a three-year extension with
changes to Form EIA–63C, Densified
Biomass Fuel Report under OMB

SUMMARY:

Jkt 244001

29777

Control Number 1905–0209. Form EIA–
63C collects data on wood pellet fuel
and other densified biomass fuel
production, sales, and inventory levels
from U.S. manufacturing facilities of
densified biomass fuel products for the
purpose of estimating densified biomass
fuel consumption in the United States,
as well as production, sales, and
inventory at state, regional, and national
levels.
DATES: EIA must receive all comments
on this proposed information collection
no later than July 26, 2018. If you
anticipate any difficulties in submitting
your comments by the deadline, contact
the DOE Desk Officer at 202–395–0710.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should
be sent to:
DOE Desk Officer: Brandon Debruhl,
Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget, New Executive Office

(4a) Changes to Information
Collection: Respondents will no longer
have to answer the following six
questions:

and to:

EIA also removed the requirement to
report quantity, characteristics,
inventory, and revenue data on
compressed fuel logs, bricks and
briquettes from on questions 3.3, 3.4
and 4.1.
Finally, the due date for annual
respondents (small biomass fuel
manufacturers having a capacity of less
than 10,000 tons per year or planned
facilities) to report is changed from
February 1 to June 1 to coincide with
the industry’s off-season and ease their
reporting burden during the heating
season which is their busiest time of the
year. Respondents that need to file
annually will only need to report
limited data in Parts 1 and 2 of the form;
(5) Annual Estimated Number of
Respondents: 108;
(6) Annual Estimated Number of
Total Responses: 1,065;
(7) Annual Estimated Number of
Burden Hours: 1,467;
(8) Annual Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Cost Burden: The cost of
the burden hours is estimated to be
$111,026 (1,467 burden hours times
$75.69 per hour). EIA estimates that
there are no additional costs to
respondents associated with the survey
other than the costs associated with the
burden hours.
Statutory Authority: Section 13(b) of
the Federal Energy Administration Act
of 1974, Pub. L. 93–275, codified as 15

On June 1, 2018, FreedomWorks, LLC,
filed an application for a preliminary
permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the
Federal Power Act (FPA), proposing to
study the feasibility of the Mt. Storm
Pumped Storage Hydro Project to be
located near Bismarck in Grant County,
West Virginia. 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 would consist of
the following: (1) An existing Mt. Storm
Lake as an upper reservoir with a
surface area of 1,200 acres and a storage
capacity of 44,000 acre-feet at a surface
elevation of approximately 3,200 feet
above mean sea level (msl); (2) as many
as two new lower reservoirs with a
combined surface area of 690 acres and
a combined storage capacity of 12,000
acre-feet at a surface elevation of 2,350
to 2,425 feet msl created through
construction of new semi-circular dams
and/or dikes; (3) as many as eight new
10,000-foot-long, 4-foot-diameter
penstocks connecting the upper
reservoir and lower reservoir; (4) two
new 300-foot-long, 50-foot-wide, 25foot-high powerhouses containing four
turbine-generator units with a total rated
capacity of 1,000 megawatts; (5) a new
transmission line connecting the
powerhouse to a nearby electric grid
