The Commission is now requesting that OMB approve and reinstate 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: Submission of this information is necessary to enable the Commission to carry out its responsibilities in implementing the statutory provisions of Part I, Section 23(b) of the Federal Power Act (FPA). Section 23(b) authorizes the Commission to make a determination as to whether it has jurisdiction over a proposed hydroelectric project. Section 23(b) also requires that any person intending to construct project works on navigable commerce clause waters must file a declaration of their intention to do so with the Commission. If the Commission finds the proposed project will have an impact on ‘‘interstate or foreign commerce’’, then person intending to construct the project must obtain a Commission license or exemption before construction. Such sites are generally on streams defined as U.S. navigation waters, and over which the Commission has jurisdiction under its authority to regulate foreign and interstate commerce. The information is collected in the form of a written declaration, informing the Commission of the applicant’s intent and used by Commission staff to research the jurisdictional aspects of the project. A finding of non-jurisdictional by the Commission eliminates a substantial paperwork burden for the applicant who might otherwise have to file for a license or an exemption application. The information filed with the Commission is a mandatory requirement. The Commission implements these filing requirements in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) under 18 Part 24. 5. Respondent Description: The respondent universe currently comprises 10 respondents (average) subject to the Commission’s jurisdiction. 6.

the Commission to make a determination as to whether it has 
jurisdiction over a proposed hydroelectric project. Section 23(b) also 
requires that any person intending to construct project works on 
navigable commerce clause waters must file a declaration of their 
intention to do so with the Commission. If the Commission finds the 
proposed project will have an impact on ``interstate or foreign 
commerce'', then person intending to construct the project must obtain 
a Commission license or exemption before construction. Such sites are 
generally on streams defined as U.S. navigation waters, and over which 
the Commission has jurisdiction under its authority to regulate foreign 
and interstate commerce. The information is collected in the form of a 
written declaration, informing the Commission of the applicant's intent 
and used by Commission staff to research the jurisdictional aspects of 
the project. A finding of non-jurisdictional by the Commission 
eliminates a substantial paperwork burden for the applicant who might 
otherwise have to file for a license or an exemption application.
    The information filed with the Commission is a mandatory 
requirement. The Commission implements these filing requirements in the 
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) under 18 Part 24.
