Advantages of Participation During the period of participation in the test, which the CPSC refers to as the ‘‘eFiling Alpha Pilot,’’ test participants can expect the following: • Opportunity to work directly with CBP and CPSC in pre-implementation stage of e-Filing targeting/enforcement data; • Ability to provide feedback and experience that will inform ultimate eFiling requirements; • Ability to trouble-shoot systems and procedures; • Reduction of product safety tests on goods imported; • In the event of an examination, shipments will be conditionally released to the importer’s premises for examination; • In the event of testing, samples will receive ‘‘front of the line testing’’ from CPSC laboratories; and • If destruction of products is required, participants may be allowed to destroy products in lieu of redelivering the product to CBP for destruction. VI. Test Duration Upon selection into the test, test participants will be expected to begin work promptly with CBP and CPSC to define and refine requirements. Once the test is operational, the test is expected to run for approximately six months or until concluded or extended by the issuance of a Federal Register notice announcing the extension or conclusion of this test. VII. Paperwork Reduction Act For this initial test of electronic filing of targeting/enforcement data, CPSC will accept fewer than 10 participants, and the test will be exempt from the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. If CPSC decides to participate in a larger-scale test, we will provide notice and seek an OMB control number specifically for such test. rmajette on DSK7SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES VIII.

Copies may also be requested in writing at (see ADDRESSES). Proposed Action. The Ala Wai Canal Project, Oahu, Hawaii feasibility study is a single-purpose flood risk management project to reduce riverine flood risks to property and life safety in the Ala Wai Watershed. The Ala Wai Watershed is located on the southeastern side of the island of Oahu, Hawaii. The watershed is 19 square miles and encompasses three subwatersheds of Makiki, Manoa and Palolo Streams, which all drain into the Ala Wai Canal. The study area includes the most densely populated watershed in Hawaii with approximately 200,000 residents in the developed areas. In addition, Waikiki supports approximately 79,000 visitors on a daily basis. This study was authorized under Section 209 of the Flood Control Act of 1962 (Pub. L. 87–874), a general study authority that authorizes surveys in harbors and rivers in Hawaii ‘‘with a view to determining the advisability of improvements in the interest of navigation, flood control, hydroelectric power development, water supply, and other beneficial uses, and related land resources.’’ Alternatives. The Draft Feasibility Study/EIS considers a full range of nonstructural and structural flood risk management alternatives that would meet the proposed action’s purpose and need and incorporate measures to avoid and minimize impacts to native aquatic species, stream habitat, and other resources. In response to identified flood-related problems and opportunities, a range of alternatives were evaluated through an iterative screening and formulation process, resulting in identification of a tentatively selected plan. The Tentatively Selected Plan (TSP) is the National Economic Development (NED) Plan and consists of the following components: improvements to the flood warning system, 6 in-stream debris and detention basins in the upper reaches of the watershed, 1 stand-alone debris catchment feature, 3 multi-purpose detention basins in open space areas through the developed watershed, floodwalls along portions of the Ala Wai Canal, mitigation measures, and 3 associated pump stations to maintain internal drainage. Canal floodwalls would extend approximately 1.7 miles along the left (makai) bank and E:\FR\FM\21AUN1.SGM 21AUN1
