The project is located on the mainstem of the Broad River between the upstream Cherokee Falls Project (FERC No. 2880) and downstream Lockhart Project (FERC No. 2620) in Cherokee County, South Carolina. The reservoir is approximately 4 miles long, with approximately 1 mile of transitional flowing habitat upstream of the impounded reach. The project does not occupy federal lands. An Environmental Assessment (EA) has been prepared as part of Commission staff’s review of the proposal. In the application, Thomas Sand anticipates removing 42,000 tons of sand each year from a 33 acre area of the project reservoir. The dredge would pump sand to an upland processing area outside of the project area. This EA contains Commission staff’s analysis of the probable environmental impacts of the proposed action and concludes that approval of the proposal would not constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment with implementation of the staff recommendations. The EA is available for electronic review and reproduction at the Commission’s Public Reference Room, located at 888 First Street NE, Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426. The EA may also be viewed on the Commission’s website at https://www.ferc.gov using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link. Enter the docket number (P–2331) in the docket number field to access the document.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title: FERC–740, Availability of E-Tag Information to Commission Staff. OMB Control No.: 1902–0254. Type of Request: Three-year extension of the FERC–740 information collection requirements with no changes to the current reporting requirements. Abstract: In Order 771,1 the FERC– 740 information collection (providing Commission staff access to e-Tag data) was implemented to provide the Commission, Market Monitoring Units, Regional Transmission Organizations, and Independent System Operators with information that allows them to perform market surveillance and analysis more effectively. The e-Tag information is necessary to understand the use of the interconnected electricity grid, particularly transactions occurring at interchanges. Due to the nature of the electric grid, an individual transaction’s impact on an interchange cannot be assessed adequately in all cases without information from all connected systems, which is included in the e-Tags. The details of the physical path of a transaction included in the e-Tags helps the Commission to monitor, in particular, interchange transactions more effectively, detect and prevent price manipulation over interchanges, and improve the efficient and orderly use of the transmission grid. For example, the e-Tag data allows the Commission to identify transmission reservations as they go from one market to another and link the market participants involved in that transaction. Order No. 771 provided the Commission access to e-Tags by requiring that Purchasing-Selling Entities 2 (PSEs) and Balancing Authorities (BAs), list the Commission on the ‘‘CC’’ list of e-Tags so that the 1 Order 771 was issued in Docket No. RM11–12 (77 FR 76367, 12/28/2012). 2 A Purchasing-Selling Entity is the entity that purchases or sells, and takes title to, energy, capacity, and Interconnected Operations Services. Purchasing-Selling Entities may be affiliated or unaffiliated merchants and may or may not own generating facilities. Purchasing-Selling Entities are typically E-Tag Authors. PO 00000 Frm 00051 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Commission can receive a copy of the eTags (the ‘‘’CC’ list requirement’’). The Commission accesses the e-Tags by contracting with a commercial vendor, OATI. In early 2014, the North American Energy Standards Board (NAESB) incorporated the ‘‘CC’’ list requirement on e-Tags as part of the tagging process.3 Even before NAESB added the FERC requirement to the tagging standards, the ‘‘CC’’ list requirement had already been programmed into the industry standard tagging software so as to make the inclusion of FERC in the ‘‘CC’’ list automatic, where appropriate. The Commission expects that PSEs and BAs will continue to use existing, automated procedures to create and validate the e-Tags in a way that provides the Commission with access to them. In the rare event that a new BA would need to alert e-Tag administrators that certain tags it generates qualify for exemption under the Commission’s regulations (e.g., transmissions from a new non-U.S. BA into another non-U.S. BA using a path that does not go through a U.S. BA), this administrative function would be expected to require less than an hour of effort total from both the BA and an e-Tag administrator to include the BA on the exemption list. New exempt BAs occur less frequently than every year, but for the purpose of estimation we will conservatively assume one appears each year creating an additional burden and cost associated with the Commission’s FERC–740 of one hour and $65.68.4 Type of Respondents: PurchasingSelling Entities and Balancing Authorities. Estimate of Annual Burden: 5 The Commission estimates the burden and cost for FERC–740 as follows based on the distinct e-Tags submitted to the Commission in 2017 (the most recent full year available). 3 NAESB Electronic Tagging Functional Specifications, Version 1.8.2. 4 The estimated hourly cost (wages plus benefits) provided in this section is based on the figures for May 2017 posted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics for the Utilities sector (available at https:// www.bls.gov/oes/current/naics2_22.htm), assuming: 15 minutes legal (code 23–0000), at $143.68/hour 45 minutes information and record clerk (code 43–4199), at $39.68/hour. 5 ‘‘Burden’’ is the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. For further explanation of what is included in the information collection burden, refer to Title 5 Code of Federal Regulations Part 1320. E:\FR\FM\22MRN1.SGM 22MRN1
