The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, NY District published a notice of intent to prepare a Draft Environmental Impact Statement in the December 28, 2004 issue of the Federal Register (FR Doc. 2004–28331). In an effort to streamline work in early 2015, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New York District, consolidated multiple parallel USACE ecosystem restoration feasibility studies into the Hudson Raritan Estuary Ecosystem Restoration Feasibility Study (HRE) Study. This streamlining is consistent with the Civil Works Transformation Initiative and Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Risk Informed, Timely (SMART) Planning principles, and maximizes efficiencies, resources and benefits. The other feasibility studies include: • HRE—Lower Passaic River Ecosystem Restoration Feasibility Study; • HRE—Hackensack Meadowlands Ecosystem Restoration Feasibility Study; • Flushing Creek and Bay Ecosystem Restoration Feasibility Study; • Bronx River Basin Ecosystem Restoration Feasibility Study; • Jamaica Bay, Marine Park, Plumb Beach Ecosystem Restoration Feasibility Study. As such, a Draft EIS is no longer necessary. Each Feasibility Study was at a different stage prior to the decision to consolidate into the HRE Feasibility Report/Environmental Assessment (FR/ EA). The planning was conducted independently with their non-federal sponsor and resulted in the selection of specific recommendations within each watershed. These combined efforts resulted in the recommendations included in the broader HRE FR/EA. The HRE FR/EA will be prepared and circulated for review by agencies and the public. The New York District invites participation and consultation of agencies and individuals that have special expertise, legal jurisdiction, or interest in the preparation of the draft environmental assessment. Comments received, including the names and addresses of those who comment, will be considered part of the public record for this proposal. As a result of the process, if it is determined that the project may have significant impacts, Peter Weppler, Chief, Environmental Analysis Branch. asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:48 Nov 28, 2016 Jkt 241001 [FR Doc. 2016–28729 Filed 11–28–16; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 3720–58–P DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE Notice of Intent To Grant Exclusive Patent License; Anasys Instruments ACTION: Department of the Navy, DoD.

Information can also be found at https:// www.wapa.gov/regions/CRSP/ PowerMarketing/Pages/powermarketing.aspx. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Brief descriptions of the projects included in the SLCA/IP are provided below: SUMMARY: Colorado River Storage Project (CRSP) Authorized by Congress in 1956, the CRSP and participating projects initiated the comprehensive development and use of water resources of the Upper Colorado River. The CRSP is comprised of the Glen Canyon, Flaming Gorge, Blue Mesa, Crystal, and Morrow Point dams and powerplants. CRSP storage units stabilize the erratic flows of the Colorado River and its tributaries so annual water delivery commitments to the Lower Colorado River Basin, as well as to farmers, municipalities, and industries in the Upper Basin, can be met. Delivery of this water to consumers is accomplished, in part, through the participating projects discussed below, and additional project development may PO 00000 Frm 00027 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 occur in future years. Initial hydroelectric generation began at the CRSP facilities in 1963. The maximum operating capacity of the five original CRSP powerplants is currently approximately 1,760 MW. The average annual generation from 1994 through 2014 was approximately 5,208,238 MWh. Participating Projects Seedskadee Project (Fontenelle Powerplant): The Seedskadee Project is in the Upper Green River Basin in southwestern Wyoming. The Fontenelle Dam, powerplant, and reservoir are the principal features of the Seedskadee Project. The powerplant commenced operation in May 1968. The maximum operating capacity of Fontenelle Powerplant is 10 MW. The average annual generation from 1994–2014 was 53,477 MWh. Dolores Project (McPhee Dam and Towaoc Canal Powerplants): The Dolores Project was authorized by the Colorado River Basin Act of September 30, 1968, as a participating project under the CRSP Act. The maximum operating capacity of the two powerplants is 12.8 MW, and the combined average annual output of McPhee Dam and Towaoc Canal powerplants from 1994–2014 was 18,161 MWh. Integrated Projects WAPA consolidated and operationally integrated the Collbran and Rio Grande projects with CRSP beginning on October 1, 1987. These integrated projects have retained their separate financial obligations for repayment; however, the SLCA/IP rate is set to recover revenues to meet the repayment requirements of all projects. The maximum operating capacity of the eleven SLCA/IP powerplants is 1,818.6 MW, and the average annual generation from 1994–2014 was about 5,635,057 MWh. The SLCA/IP resources are currently marketed to approximately 135 long-term customers, and many more electric service providers benefit from this power indirectly through parent organizations that are direct customers of the SLCA/IP. Existing SLCA/IP contracts will terminate at the end of the September 2024 billing period. Collbran Project (Upper Molina and Lower Molina Powerplants): The Colbran Project was authorized in 1952 and has been in service since 1962. The maximum operating capacity of the two powerplants is presently 13.5 MW. The average annual generation from 1994– 2014 was 41,915 MWh. E:\FR\FM\29NON1.SGM 29NON1
