The Department of Energy (DOE) announces its intention to prepare an EIS pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969 to assess the potential environmental impacts from its proposed Federal action of granting a Presidential permit to Northern Pass Transmission LLC (Northern Pass or Applicant) to construct, operate, maintain, and connect a new electric transmission line across the U.S.- Canada border in northern New Hampshire (NH).

The purpose of this Notice of Intent (NOI) is to inform the public about the proposed action, announce plans to conduct public scoping meetings in the vicinity of the proposed transmission line, and solicit public comments for consideration in establishing the scope of the EIS. Because the proposed project may involve actions in floodplains and wetlands, the draft EIS will include a floodplain and wetland assessment as appropriate, and the final EIS or Record of Decision will include a floodplain statement of findings.

Proposed Collection; Comment Request; Cancer Biomedical Informatics Grid® (caBIG®) Support Service Provider (SSP) Program (NCI)
In compliance with the requirement of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, for opportunity for public comment on proposed data collection projects, the National Cancer Institute (NCI), the National Institutes of Health (NIH) will publish periodic summaries of proposed projects to be submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval. Proposed Collection: Title: cancer Biomedical Informatics Grid [supreg] (caBIG [supreg]) Support Service Provider (SSP) Program (NCI). Type of Information Collection Request: Existing Collection in Use Without an OMB Number. Need and Use of Information Collection: The NCI Center for Biomedical Informatics and Information Technology (CBIIT) launched the enterprise phase of the caBIG [supreg] initiative in early 2007 with an emphasis on widespread institutional adoption of the program and tools. This emphasis on adoption has generated an expanding community with diverse needs for support, which are met through the resources available through the caBIG [supreg] Enterprise Support Network (ESN), including the caBIG [supreg] Support Service Provider (SSP) Program. The caBIG [supreg] SSPs provide caBIG [supreg] end-users with the freedom to match what caBIG [supreg] has to offer to their unique organizational goals and needs, so having this customized support option available is critically important to advancing the goals of the caBIG [supreg] program. caBIG [supreg] SSP applicants are evaluated against well-defined criteria published in the SSP Program Announcement and must successfully demonstrate that they have the technical capabilities, staffing and scalability, geographic coverage (when applicable), and the domain expertise in biomedicine to effectively serve caBIG [supreg] users. The information submitted by SSP applicants enables NCI to determine whether such applicants are qualified to enter into trademark license negotiations with NCI to use the caBIG [supreg] trademarks in connection with their services and become designated as caBIG [supreg] SSPs. Thus, the collection of information from SSP applicants is critical to both ensuring that the goals and objectives of the caBIG [supreg] program will be maintained and furthered by the organizations designated as SSPs and facilitating NCI's ability to exercise appropriate stewardship of the caBIG [supreg] trademarks. Sections 410 and 411 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 285 and 285a) authorize the collection of the information. Frequency of Response: once for the applicants. caBIG [supreg] SSP applications are accepted on a rolling basis and reviewed several times a year. Affected Public: Private sector including Business or other for-profits and not-for-profit organizations and institutions. Type of Respondents: Technical representatives of commercial, academic or not- for-profit organizations. The annual reporting burden is estimated at 360 hours. There are no Capital Costs, Operating Costs, and/or Maintenance Costs to report.
