FERC Contact: Robert Bell, Phone No. (202) 502–6062; Email: robert.bell@ ferc.gov. Qualifying Conduit Hydropower Facility Description: The proposed project would consist of: (1) Up to six 4-kW turbine-generators connected to an existing irrigation pipeline with a total generating capacity of up to 24 kW, and (2) appurtenant facilities. The proposed project would have an estimated annual 54741 generation of up to 105.42 megawatthours. A qualifying conduit hydropower facility is one that is determined or deemed to meet all of the criteria shown in the table below. TABLE 1—CRITERIA FOR QUALIFYING CONDUIT HYDROPOWER FACILITY Description Satisfies (Y/N) The conduit the facility uses is a tunnel, canal, pipeline, aqueduct, flume, ditch, or similar manmade water conveyance that is operated for the distribution of water for agricultural, municipal, or industrial consumption and not primarily for the generation of electricity. The facility is constructed, operated, or maintained for the generation of electric power and uses for such generation only the hydroelectric potential of a non-federally owned conduit. The facility has an installed capacity that does not exceed 5 megawatts .....................................

FPA 30(a)(3)(C)(iii), as amended by HREA. On or before August 9, 2013, the facility is not licensed, or exempted from the licensing requirements of Part I of the FPA. Preliminary Determination: The proposed Haights Creek MicroHydropower Project will not interfere with the primary purpose of the conduit, which is to transport water for irrigation by filling an equalizing reservoir, which in turn provides pressure for an irrigation zone in their service area. Therefore, based upon the above criteria, Commission staff preliminarily determines that the proposal satisfies the requirements for a qualifying conduit hydropower facility, which is not required to be licensed or exempted from licensing.

Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Iron and Steel Foundries Area Sources (40 CFR part 63, subpart ZZZZZ) apply to both new and existing iron and/or steel foundries that are an area source of hazardous air pollutants (HAP) emissions. There are different requirements for foundries based on size. Existing foundries with an annual metal melt production greater that 20,000 tons and new foundries with an annual melt capacity of 10,000 tons are classified as large foundries. Existing foundries with an annual metal melt capacity of 10,000 tons or less are VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:06 Oct 30, 2018 Jkt 247001 classified as small foundries. Research and development facilities are not covered by the rule. New facilities include those that commenced construction, modification or reconstruction after the date of proposal. In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart ZZZZZ. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Iron and steel foundries. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart ZZZZZ). Estimated number of respondents: 392 (total). Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, quarterly, semiannually, and annually. Total estimated burden: 9,140 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $1,000,000 (rounded) (per year). No annualized capital and/or operation & maintenance costs are included. Changes in the estimates: There is an adjustment increase in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. While the overall number of respondents has decreased from 427 to 392 since the previous ICR renewal to account for shutdown facilities, this renewal includes a burden estimate for each existing respondent to familiarize themselves with regulatory requirements each year. As a result, there is a net increase in the burden hours as compared to the previous ICR renewal. Courtney Kerwin, Director, Regulatory Support Division.
