DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
Agricultural Research Service
Notice of Intent To Grant Exclusive
License
AGENCY:
Agricultural Research Service,
USDA.
ACTION:
Notice of intent.
Notice is hereby given that
the U.S. Department of Agriculture,
Agricultural Research Service, intends
to grant to Washington State Crop
Improvement Association of Pullman,
Washington, an exclusive license to the
chickpea variety named ‘‘Nash.’’
SUMMARY:
Title: Electric System Emergency
Restoration Plan.
OMB Control Number: 0572–0140.
Summary of Collection: Electric
power systems have been identified in
Presidential Decision Directive 63, May
1998, as one of the critical
infrastructures of the United States. The
term ‘‘critical infrastructure’’ is defined
in section 1016(e) of the USA Patriot
Act of 2001 (42 U.S.C. 5195c(e)). To
ensure that the electric infrastructure in
rural America is adequately protected,
Rural Utilities Service requires that all
current electric borrowers enhance an
existing Emergency Restoration Plan
(ERP) or, if none exists, develop and
maintain an ERP.
Need and Use of the Information:
Rural Development Utilities Programs
(RDUP) requires that all current electric
borrowers conduct a Vulnerability and
Risk Assessment (VRA) of its respective
systems and utilize the results of this
assessment to enhance an existing ERP
or create an ERP if none exists. The ERP
provides written procedures detailing
response and restoration efforts in the
event of a major system outage resulting
from a natural or man made disaster.
RDUP requires each electric borrower to
provide annually a self-certification, in
writing, that an ERP exists and that an
initial VRA has been performed. If this
information were not collected,
vulnerabilities may exist in the electric
system infrastructure. The result would
be increased risk to public safety and
may affect the Government loan
security.
Description of Respondents: Not-forprofit institutions; Business or other forprofit.
Number of Respondents: 625.
