California Independent System Operator Corporation; Notice of Filing, 23146 [E5-2164]

Download as PDF 23146 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 85 / Wednesday, May 4, 2005 / Notices Description The information collection submitted for OMB review contains the following: 1. Collection of Information: FERC– 603 ‘‘Critical Energy Infrastructure Information.’’ 2. Sponsor: Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. 3. Control No.: 1902–0197. The Commission is now requesting that OMB approve with a three-year extension of the expiration date, with no changes to the existing collection. The information filed with the Commission is mandatory. 4. Necessity of the Collection of Information: The information is used by the Commission to implement procedures for gaining access to critical energy infrastructure information (CEII) that would not otherwise be available under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552). On February 21, 2003, the Commission issued Order No. 630 (68 FR 9857–9873), and then issued subsequent Order Nos. 630–A (68 FR 46456–60), and 649 (69 FR 48386–91) to address the appropriate treatment of CEII in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and to restrict unrestrained general access due to the ongoing terrorism threat. These steps enable the Commission to keep sensitive infrastructure information out of the public domain, decreasing the likelihood that such information could be used to plan or execute terrorist attacks. The process adopted in these orders is a more efficient alternative for handling request for previously public documents than FOIA. The Commission has defined CEII to include information about existing or proposed critical infrastructure that (i) relates to the production, generation, transportation, transmission, or distribution of energy; (ii) could be useful to a person planning an attack on critical infrastructure, (iii) is exempt from mandatory disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act, and (iv) does not simply give the location of the critical infrastructure. Critical infrastructure means existing and proposed systems and assets, whether physical or virtual, the incapacity or destruction of which would negatively affect security, economic security, public health or safety, or any combination of those matters. A person seeking access to CEII may file a request for that information by providing information about their identity and reason for the need for the information. Through this process, the Commission is able to review the requester’s need for the information against the sensitivity of the information. The Commission VerDate jul<14>2003 21:08 May 03, 2005 Jkt 205001 implements these requirements in 18 CFR 388.113 of its regulations. 5. Respondent Description: The respondent universe currently comprises all entities requesting access to CEII information submitted to or issued by the Commission. 6. Estimated Burden: 46 total hours, 182 respondents (average per year), 1 response per respondent, and .25 hours per response (average). 7. Estimated Cost Burden to respondents: The estimated total cost to respondents is $2,392. The cost per respondent = $13. (46 hours @$52 hourly rate ÷ 182). Statutory Authority 15 U.S.C. 717, et seq., 16 U.S.C. 791a, et seq., section 313(b) of the Federal Power Act, 16 U.S.C. 824l(b) and section 19(b) of the Natural Gas Act, 15 U.S.C. 717r(b).
