be determined); (11) a 5,073-foot-long,
15.5-foot-diameter concrete-lined or
unlined tailrace; (12) a 260-foot-long,
65-foot-wide, 120-foot-high
underground powerhouse located at a
depth of 1,000 feet; (13) one 150megawatt (MW), one 100–MW, and one
50–MW reversible pump-turbines
totaling 300 MW of generating capacity,
with up to 100 MW of additional
pumping capacity, for a total of 400 MW
pumping capacity; (14) an
approximately 3,000-footlong, 24-foothigh main access tunnel leading from

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. What information is EPA particularly
interested in?
Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
PRA, EPA specifically solicits

practical utility.

Agency’s estimates of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used.
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected.
4. Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of responses. In
particular, EPA is requesting comments
from very small businesses (those that
employ less than 25) on examples of
specific additional efforts that EPA
could make to reduce the paperwork
burden for very small businesses
affected by this collection.
II. What should I consider when I
prepare my comments for EPA?
You may find the following
suggestions helpful for preparing your
comments:
1. Explain your views as clearly as
possible and provide specific examples.
2. Describe any assumptions that you
used.

information and/or data you used that
support your views.
