government. The subject of the request
must concern identifiable operations or
activities of the Federal Government
with a connection that is direct and
clear, not remote or attenuated.
(ii) Disclosure of the requested
information is likely to contribute
significantly to public understanding of
those operations or activities. This
factor is satisfied when the following
criteria are met:
(A) Disclosure of the requested
records must be meaningfully
informative about government
operations or activities. The disclosure
of information that already is in the
public domain, in either the same or a
substantially identical form, would not
be meaningfully informative if nothing
new would be added to the public’s
understanding.
(B) The disclosure must contribute to
the understanding of a reasonably broad
audience of persons interested in the
subject, as opposed to the individual
understanding of the requester. A
requester’s expertise in the subject area
as well as the requester’s ability and
intention to effectively convey
information to the public must be
considered. TVA will presume that a
representative of the news media will
satisfy this consideration.
(iii) The disclosure must not be
primarily in the commercial interest of
the requester. To determine whether
disclosure of the requested information
is primarily in the commercial interest
of the requester, TVA will consider the
following criteria:
(A) TVA must identify whether the
requester has any commercial interest
that would be furthered by the
requested disclosure. A commercial
interest includes any commercial, trade,
or profit interest. Requesters will be
given an opportunity to provide
explanatory information regarding this
consideration.
(B) If there is an identified
commercial interest, TVA must
determine whether that is the primary
interest furthered by the request. A
waiver or reduction of fees is justified
when the requirements of paragraphs
(k)(2)(i) and (ii) of this section are
satisfied and any commercial interest is
not the primary interest furthered by the
request. TVA ordinarily will presume
that when a news media requester has
satisfied factors paragraphs (k)(2)(i) and
(ii), the request is not primarily in the
commercial interest of the requester.
Disclosure to data brokers or others who
merely compile and market government
information for direct economic return
will not be presumed to primarily serve
the public interest.

(3) Where only some of the records to
be released satisfy the requirements for
a waiver of fees, a waiver must be
granted for those records.
(4) Requests for a waiver or reduction
of fees should be made when the request
is first submitted to TVA and should
address the criteria referenced above. A
requester may submit a fee waiver
request at a later time so long as the
underlying record request is pending or
on administrative appeal. When a
requester who has committed to pay
fees subsequently asks for a waiver of
those fees and that waiver is denied, the
requester must pay any costs incurred
up to the date the fee waiver request
was received.
§ 1301.12
Other rights and services.
Nothing in this subpart shall be
construed to entitle any person, as of
right, to any service or to the disclosure
of any record to which such person is
not entitled under the FOIA.

Senior Vice President, Chief Communications
& Marketing Officer, Tennessee Valley
Authority.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Multnomah County, bridge owner, has
requested a temporary deviation from
the operating schedule for the
Hawthorne Bridge across the Willamette
River, mile 13.1, at Portland, OR. The
requested deviation is to accommodate
the Race for the Cure event. To facilitate
this event, the draw of the subject bridge
will be allowed to remain in the closedto-navigation position and need not
open to marine traffic from 7 a.m. to
noon on September 17, 2017. The
Hawthorne Bridge provides a vertical
clearance of 49 feet in the closed-tonavigation position referenced to the
vertical clearance above Columbia River
Datum 0.0. The normal operating
schedule is in 33 CFR 117.897(c)(3)(v).
Waterway usage on this part of the
Willamette River includes vessels
ranging from commercial tug and barge
to small pleasure craft. The Coast Guard
provided notice of and requested
objections to this deviation to local
mariners via the Local Notice Mariners,
and email. No objections were
submitted to the Coast Guard.
Vessels able to pass through the
bridge in the closed-to-navigation
position may do so at any time. The
bridge will be able to open for
emergencies, and there is no immediate
alternate route for vessels to pass. The
Coast Guard will inform the users of the
waterway, through our Local and
Broadcast Notices to Mariners, of the
change in operating schedule for the
bridge so that vessel operators can
arrange their transits to minimize any
impact caused by the temporary
deviation.
In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e),
the drawbridge must return to its regular
operating schedule immediately at the
end of the effective period of this
temporary deviation. This deviation
from the operating regulations is
authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.
Dated: August 25, 2017.
