Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 157 / Friday, August 14, 2015 / Notices
incorporated in a Scoping Report and
were considered in the preparation of
this Draft EIS.
Concerns raised during scoping
include: potential degradation of surface
water or groundwater quality and
potential depletion to groundwater from
pit lakes and/or water withdrawals for
mine operations; potential impacts to
mule deer habitat and migration
corridors; potential impacts to greater
sage-grouse habitat and strutting
grounds; potential impacts to Wild
Horse Herd Management Areas (HMAs),
including herd access to surface water
sources; potential air quality impacts
from fugitive dust containing mercury,
arsenic, or other contaminants; and
potential impacts to visual resources
including the visual setting of the Pony
Express Trail and the Ruby Lake
National Wildlife Refuge. The North and
South Operations Area Facilities
Reconfiguration Alternative was
developed to help reduce impacts to
mule deer, greater sage-grouse, and
visual resources. The Western Redbird
Modification Alternative was developed
to help further reduce impacts to mule
deer. Mitigation measures have also
been included to show how impacts on
resources could be minimized.
The BLM has prepared the Draft EIS
in conjunction with its five Cooperating
Agencies: Nevada Department of
Wildlife, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service,
State of Nevada Sagebrush Ecosystem
Program, Eureka County, and White
Pine County.

additional information, please contact

Faith-based & Neighborhood
Partnerships, U.S. Department of
Justice, Washington, DC 20531 (phone
(202) 305–7462)).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Written
comments and suggestions from the
public and affected agencies concerning
the proposed collection of information
are encouraged. Your comments should
address one or more of the following
four points:
—Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the Office of Justice
Programs, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
—Evaluate the accuracy of the agency’s
estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
—Evaluate whether and if so how the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected can be
enhanced; and
—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.
Overview of this information
collection:
1. Type of Information Collection:
This is a new information collection,
which requires the collection and
identification of types of information
that the Department does not currently
collect.
2. The Title of the Form/Collection:
Beneficiary Referral Request.
3. The agency form number, if any,
and the applicable component of the
Department sponsoring the collection:
The applicable component within the
Department of Justice is the Office of
Justice Programs.
4. Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: The proposed rule includes
two new paperwork requirements for
faith-based or religious organizations.
The proposed rule would require faithbased or religious organizations to give
beneficiaries (or prospective
beneficiaries) notice informing them of
their protections under the regulation.
The proposed rule would also require

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 157 / Friday, August 14, 2015 / Notices
faith-based or religious organizations to
make reasonable efforts to identify and
refer beneficiaries requesting referrals to
alternative service providers.
5. An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: The Department acknowledges
that estimating the number of faithbased or religious organizations that
provide services or benefits under
Department programs is challenging. To
obtain this estimate, the Department
relied upon information from two of its
grantmaking components: The Office on
Violence Against Women (OVW) and
the Office of Justice Programs (OJP).
OVW estimates that there are
approximately 100 grantees and
subgrantees that would have to provide
the notice to beneficiaries. OJP estimates
that there may be fewer than 50 grantees
and subgrantees subject to the notice
requirement, based on three years of
information related to legal name,
application for funding, and use of
special conditions that is maintained in
its Grants Management System.
Accordingly, the Department estimates
that the total number of organizations
that must give notice will be equal to
150. It is further estimated, as stated
below, the total hours per year for
respondents to give notice is estimated
to be 60.
6. An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: The estimated public burden
associated with this collection is 60
hours per year. It is estimated that
respondents will take 1 minute to
provide the notice. The burden hours
for providing a beneficiary referral
request was calculated as follows: (150
faith-based or religious organizations ×
1/60 hour (the time needed to give the
notice) × 12 per year (the number of
annual requests for a referral) = 60
hours).

On August 5, 2015, The United States
of America filed a complaint and lodged

United States District Court for the
Western District of Washington in the
lawsuit entitled United States of
America, et al. v. Advance Ross Sub
Company, et al., Civil Action 3:15-cv05548, Dkt #’s 1–9.
The United States Department of
Commerce, acting through NOAA; the
United States Department of the
Interior; the Washington Department of
Ecology on behalf of the State of
Washington; the Puyallup Tribe of
Indians, and the Muckleshoot Indian
Tribe (collectively, ‘‘the Trustees’’ and,
individually, a ‘‘Trustee’’), under the
authority of section 107(f) of the
Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation, and Liability
Act (CERCLA) 42 U.S.C. 9607(f), section
1321(f)(5) of the Clean Water Act
(CWA), section 1006(b) of the Oil
Pollution Act (OPA), 33 U.S.C. 2706(b),

Model Toxics Control Act (MTCA) and
the Washington Water Pollution Control
Act (WPCA), serve as trustees for
natural resources for the assessment and
recovery of damages for injury to,
destruction of, or loss of natural
resources under their trusteeship.
Investigations conducted by the
United States Environmental Protection
Agency (‘‘EPA’’), the Trustees, and
others have detected hazardous
substances in the sediments, soils and
groundwater of the Commencement Bay
environment, including but not limited
to arsenic, antimony, cadmium,
chromium, copper, mercury, nickel,
lead, zinc, bis(2-ethylhexyl)-phthalate,
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
(PAHs), and polychlorinated biphenyls
(PCBs). The Trustees have documented
the presence of over 23 hazardous
substances in the marine sediments of
Commencement Bay’s Thea Foss and
Wheeler-Osgood Waterways.
Plaintiffs have filed a complaint
pursuant to section 107 of CERCLA, 42
U.S.C. 9607; MTCA, chapter 70.105D
RCW; CWA, 33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.; and

for injury to, destruction of, and loss of
natural resources resulting from releases

Frm 00112
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

of hazardous substances from the Thea
Foss and Wheeler-Osgood waterway and
into Commencement Bay, including the
costs of assessing the damages.
The Trustees allege that Defendants
each are the current or past owners and/
or operators of facilities from which
hazardous substances have been
discharged to Commencement Bay. The
Trustees further allege that those
hazardous substances caused injury to,
destruction of, and loss of natural
resources, including fish, shellfish,
invertebrates, birds, marine sediments,
and resources of cultural significance.
Under the proposed settlement, the
Defendants will fund and take
responsibility for the development of a
habitat restoration project on the White
River; Monitor and adaptively manage
the project for ten years to ensure stable
acreage; preserve a portion of the
Wheeler Osgood Waterway for use as a
future habitat restoration project; pay
$50,000 to fund Trustee oversight of the
restoration projects; reimburse $833,705
in Trustees’ assessment costs; and
contribute $188,000 to the Trustees’
permanent restoration site stewardship
fund.
