Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 27 / Thursday, February 10, 2005 / Notices means for accepting electronic grant applications. Exceptions to Mandatory Electronic Filing Requirement. We also announce a change in our policy and procedures for permitting applicants to submit paper applications in those competitions where the Department requires the electronic submission of applications through Grants.gov or e-Application. Under this new policy, when we require that applicants submit an application electronically through Grants.gov or eApplication, we will permit an exception to this requirement and will allow the submission of an application in paper format by mail or hand delivery only in two sets of circumstances. Specifically, an applicant will be permitted to submit an application in paper format by mail or hand delivery if the applicant— (a) does not have access to the Internet; or (b) does not have the capacity to upload large documents to the Department’s e-Application system or the Grants.gov application system; and (c) submits a written statement to the Department that the applicant qualifies for an exception under one of these grounds. The written statement must be mailed or faxed to the program office (include the program name and CFDA number) no later than two weeks before the application deadline date (14 calendar days, or if the fourteenth calendar day falls on a Federal holiday, the next business day following the Federal holiday). A fax must be received by the Department on or before this date and an applicant should ensure that it retains a receipt of the faxed transmission. A mailed statement must be postmarked on or before this date and applicants should refer to the grant application notice for acceptable forms of proof of mailing. Unlike our prior policy, we will not accept requests for waiver of the electronic submission requirement up until the application deadline date. If an applicant provides its statement on or before the two-week deadline, the Department will accept the statement and paper application and will not provide any response to the statement. If an applicant submits a paper application but fails to submit a statement or does not submit a statement in a timely manner, the Department will not accept the applicant’s paper application. The Department will notify an applicant if it is not accepting the applicant’s paper application.

City of Augusta, GA; Notice Dismissing Request for Rehearing

February 3, 2005.
    By letter of May 5, 2004, Commission staff informed the City of 
Augusta, Georgia (Augusta), that it would be required to obtain water 
quality certification under section 401(a) of the Clean Water Act, 33 
U.S.C. 1341(a), from the State of South Carolina in connection with 
Augusta's application for an original license for the Augusta Canal 
Project No. 11810, located on the Savannah River in Georgia and South 
Carolina. Section 313 of the Federal Power Act (FPA), 16 U.S.C. 825l, 
establishes the right of a party aggrieved by a Commission order to 
seek rehearing of that order within 30 days of its issuance. Augusta 
did not seek

rehearing but, on June 4, 2004, sought reconsideration of the letter, 
asking the Commission to vacate the letter on the ground that 
certification was not required. By order issued November 23, 2004, 109 
FERC ] 61,210 (2004), the Commission denied reconsideration as to the 
need for certification but granted Augusta's request for an extension 
of time to obtain it.
    On December 23, 2004, Augusta sought rehearing of the Commission's 
order. The order on reconsideration, which allowed the staff letter to 
remain effective, did not create a right to rehearing that had not been 
created by issuance of the staff letter itself. To the extent that 
Augusta was aggrieved by the staff letter, a request for rehearing of 
the letter would have been the appropriate remedy. As Augusta did not 
seek rehearing of the staff letter, a request for rehearing of the 
order on reconsideration is effectively an impermissibly late-filed 
request for rehearing of the letter. Accordingly, Augusta's December 
23, 2004, request for rehearing in this proceeding does not lie and is 
dismissed.
