SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: FERC–521, Payments for
Benefits from Headwater Improvements.
OMB Control No.: 1902–0087.
Type of Request: Three-year extension
of the FERC–521 information collection
requirements with no changes to the
current reporting requirements.
Abstract: The information collected
under the requirements of FERC–521 is
used by the Commission to implement
the statutory provisions of Section 10(f)
of the Federal Power Act (FPA).1 The
FPA authorizes the Commission to
determine headwater benefits received
by downstream hydropower project
owners. Headwater benefits are the
additional energy production possible at
a downstream hydropower project
resulting from the regulation of river
flows by an upstream storage reservoir.
When the Commission completes a
study of a river basin, it determines
headwater benefits charges that will be
apportioned among the various
downstream beneficiaries. A headwater
benefits charge and the cost incurred by
the Commission to complete an
evaluation are paid by downstream
hydropower project owners. In essence,
the owners of non-federal hydropower
projects that directly benefit from a
headwater improvement must pay an
equitable portion of the annual charges
for interest, maintenance, and
depreciation of the headwater project to
the U.S. Treasury. The regulations
provide for apportionment of these costs
between the headwater project and
downstream projects based on
26477
downstream energy gains and propose
equitable apportionment methodology
that can be applied to all river basins in
which headwater improvements are
built. The Commission requires owners
of non-federal hydropower projects to
file data for determining annual charges
as outlined in 18 Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) Part 11.
Type of Respondents: There are two
types of entities that respond, Federal
and Non-Federal hydropower project
owners. The Federal entities that
typically respond are the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers and the U.S.
Department of Interior Bureau of
Reclamation. The Non-Federal entities
may consist of any Municipal or NonMunicipal hydropower project owner.

Commission estimates the total Public

information is necessary for the proper

Commission, including whether the
information will have practical utility;

of the burden and cost of the collection
of information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) ways to enhance the quality, utility
and clarity of the information collection;

the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including the use
of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.

Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line
Company, LLC; Notice of Application
Take notice that on May 25, 2017,
Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line
Company, LLC (Transco), P.O. Box
1396, Houston, Texas 77251, filed in
Docket No. CP17–450–000 an
application pursuant to section 7(b) of

Jkt 241001
the Natural Gas Act (NGA) and Part 157
of the Commission’s regulations,
requesting authorization to abandon in
place its offshore gathering laterals
extending from Brazos Block A–133A to
Brazos Block 538. The gathering
facilities proposed to be abandon are
located on Transco’s Central Texas
Gathering System (CTGS) in federal
waters offshore Texas.
Specifically, Transco proposes to
abandon the CTGS West Facilities that
consist of: (i) A 10.72-mile, 20-inch
offshore gathering lateral extending
from Brazos Block A–133A platform to
the Brazos Block A–76 subsea tie-in,
and (ii) a 30-mile, 20-inch offshore
gathering lateral extending from the
Brazos Block A–76 subsea tie-in to the
Brazos Block 538 platform. Transco
states that the abandonment of the
CTGS West Facilities will have no
impacts on the upstream shippers as the
approximately 35,000 dekatherms per
day that currently flows on these
laterals will be re-routed to an existing
parallel line. Transco estimates the cost
of the abandonment of the CTGS West
Facilities to be approximately $2.9
million, all as more fully set forth in the
application which is on file with the
Commission and open to public
inspection. The filing may also be
viewed on the web at https://

Pursuant to section 157.9 of the
Commission’s rules (18 CFR 157.9),
within 90 days of this Notice, the
Commission staff will either: Complete
its environmental assessment (EA) and
place it into the Commission’s public
record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or
issue a Notice of Schedule for
Environmental Review. If a Notice of
Schedule for Environmental Review is
issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the
Commission staff’s issuance of the EA
for this proposal. The filing of the EA
in the Commission’s public record for
this proceeding or the issuance of a
Notice of Schedule for Environmental
Review will serve to notify federal and
PO 00000

state agencies of the timing for the
completion of all necessary reviews, and
the subsequent need to complete all
federal authorizations within 90 days of
the date of issuance of the Commission
staff’s EA.
There are two ways to become
involved in the Commission’s review of
this project. First, any person wishing to
obtain legal status by becoming a party
to the proceedings for this project
should, on or before the comment date
stated below, file with the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888
First Street NE., Washington, DC 20426,
a motion to intervene in accordance
with the requirements of the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211)
and the Regulations under the NGA (18
CFR 157.10). A person obtaining party
status will be placed on the service list
maintained by the Secretary of the
Commission and will receive copies of
all documents filed by the applicant and
by all other parties. A party must submit
five copies of filings made with the
Commission and must mail a copy to
the applicant and to every other party in
the proceeding. Only parties to the
proceeding can ask for court review of
Commission orders in the proceeding.
However, a person does not have to
intervene in order to have comments
considered. The second way to
participate is by filing with the
Secretary of the Commission, as soon as
possible, an original and two copies of
comments in support of or in opposition
to this project. The Commission will
consider these comments in
determining the appropriate action to be
taken, but the filing of a comment alone
will not serve to make the filer a party
to the proceeding. The Commission’s
rules require that persons filing
comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to
the party or parties directly involved in
the protest.
Persons who wish to comment only
on the environmental review of this
project should submit an original and
two copies of their comments to the
Secretary of the Commission.
Environmental commentors will be
placed on the Commission’s
environmental mailing list, will receive
copies of the environmental documents,
and will be notified of meetings
associated with the Commission’s
environmental review process.
Environmental commentors will not be
required to serve copies of filed
documents on all other parties.
However, the non-party commentors
will not receive copies of all documents
filed by other parties or issued by the
Commission (except for the mailing of
