SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The information collected under the requirements of FERC Form 80 ‘‘Licensed Hydropower Development Recreation Report’’ (OMB Control No. 1902–0106) is used by the Commission to implement the statutory provisions of sections 4(a), 10(a), 301(a), 304 and 309 of the Federal Power Act (FPA), 16 U.S.C. sections 797, 803, 825c and 8254. The authority for the Commission to collect this information comes from section 10(a) of the FPA which requires the Commission to be responsible for ensuring that hydro projects subject to its jurisdiction are consistent with the comprehensive development of the nation’s waterway for recreation and other beneficial public uses. In the interest of fulfilling these objectives, the Commission expects licensees subject to its jurisdiction, to recognize the resources that are affected by their activities and to play a role in protecting such resources. FERC Form 80 is a report on the use and development of recreational facilities at hydropower projects licensed by the Commission. Applications for amendments to licenses and/or changes in land rights frequently involve changes in resources available for recreation. Commission staff utilizes FERC Form 80 data when analyzing the adequacy of existing public recreational facilities and in the amendment review process to help determine the impact of such changes. In addition, the Commission’s regional office staff uses the FERC Form 80 data when conducting inspections of licensed projects. The Commission’s inspectors use the data in evaluating compliance with various license conditions and in identifying recreational facilities at hydropower projects. The data required to be filed is specified by 18 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) under 18 CFR 8.11 and 141.14. The FERC Form 80 has been revised to facilitate greater ease to respondents in providing the information. First, FERC Form 80 has been updated to eliminate data concerning the nearest city and population, since Commission staff can access the information from E:\FR\FM\16APN1.SGM 16APN1
