DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY


Proposed Agency Information Collection Extension

AGENCY: U.S. Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments on submission of information 
collection request for approval from the Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Energy (DOE), pursuant to the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995, has submitted an information collection request 
to the OMB for approval of an extension of the existing OMB approval 
for three years. Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the extended 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
the functions of the agency; (b) 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; (c) ways to enhance 
the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; 
and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
respondents, including through the use of automated collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology.

DATES: Comments regarding this proposed information collection must

[[Page 54100]]

be received on or before November 26, 2018. If you anticipate 
difficulty in submitting comments within that period, contact the 
person listed in ADDRESSES as soon as possible.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be sent to the following address: 
DOE Desk Officer, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office 
of Management and Budget, New Executive Office Building, Room 10102, 
735 17th Street NW, Washington, DC 20503.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Requests for additional information or 
copies of the information collection instrument and instructions should 
be directed to Andrea Lachenmayr, 
[email protected], (202)586-3399.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This information collection request 
contains: (1) OMB No.: 1910-5134; (2) Information Collection Request 
Title: DOE Loan Guarantees for Energy Projects; (3) Type of Request: 
Extension (4) Purpose: This information collection package covers 
collection of information necessary to evaluate applications for loan 
guarantees submitted under Title XVII of the Energy Policy Act of 2005, 
as amended, 16516 (Title XVII), 42 U.S.C. 16511, and under Section 
2602(c) of the Energy Policy Act of 1992, as amended (TELGP), 25 U.S.C. 
3502(c). Because the information collection package pertains to 
applications for loan guarantees under both Title XVII and TELGP (the 
latter of which does not require innovative technology), the 
Information Collection Request Title is being changed from its original 
title, ``10 CFR part 609--Loan Guarantees for Projects that Employ 
Innovative Technologies'' to its new title, ``DOE Loan Guarantees for 
Energy Projects.'' This title is more descriptive of the purpose of the 
Information Collection Request. Applications for loan guarantees 
submitted to DOE in response to a solicitation under Title XVII or 
TELGP must contain certain information. This information will be used 
to analyze whether a project is eligible for a loan guarantee and to 
evaluate the application under criteria specified in the final 
regulations implementing Title XVII, located at 10 CFR part 609, and 
adopted by DOE for purposes of TELGP, with certain immaterial 
modifications and omissions. The collection of this information is 
critical to ensure that the government has sufficient information to 
determine whether applicants meet the eligibility requirements to 
qualify for a DOE loan guarantee under Title XVII or TELGP, as the case 
may be, and to provide DOE with sufficient information to evaluate an 
applicant's project using the criteria specified in 10 CFR part 609 
(for Title XVII applications) or the applicable solicitation (for TELGP 
applications); (5) Annual Estimated Number of Respondents: 20 
Applications; (6) Annual Estimated Number of Total Responses: It is 
estimated that the total number of annual responses will not exceed 20; 
(7) Annual Estimated Number of Burden Hours: 2,650 hours, most of which 
is likely to be time committed by firms that seek debt and/or equity 
financing for their projects, regardless of their intent to apply for a 
DOE loan guarantee; (8) Annual Estimated Reporting and Recordkeeping 
Cost Burden: It is estimated that the annual estimated reporting and 
recordkeeping cost burden for applicants will not exceed $26,296 per 
annum, per applicant.
    Authority: Title XVII and TELGP authorize the collection of 
information.

    Signed in Washington, DC, on October 18, 2018.

Executive Director, Department of Energy Loan Programs Office.
