SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB
Number: Overseas Citizen Population
Survey; OMB Control Number 0704–
0539.
Needs and Uses: The primary
objective of the Overseas Citizen
Population Survey (OCPS), conducted
on behalf of FVAP, is to refine FVAP’s
methodology for estimating the number
of overseas U.S. civilians who are
eligible to vote and who have registered
and participated in the past. These
estimates are then used to address the
question of whether the registration and
voting propensity of the overseas
civilian population differs from that of
comparable domestic or military
populations. Subsequent to each
Presidential election year, FVAP must
report to Congress voter registration and
participation rates for Uniformed
Services voters and overseas citizens.
Previous attempts to collect information
on the overseas citizen population to
identify and measure its voter
registration and participation rates in
Federal elections suffered from
significant bias; this effort is focused on
refining a well-established method to
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 250001
report voter registration and
participation rates from a more welldefined subgroup of overseas civilians.
Conducting this research will help
FVAP meet its federal and congressional
mandates in terms of reporting annually
on its activities and overall voter
registration and participation rates after
each Presidential election. The data
obtained through this study is also
intended to provide insights into
existing barriers to UOCAVA voting and
recommendations for addressing these
challenges. In 2018, data from the 2016
survey was used to identify the barriers
that overseas citizens face in requesting,
casting and returning their ballots—and,
along with the 2018 data, which is just
becoming available, will help shape
FVAP’s outreach to these voters in 2020
and beyond. The 2020 version of the
OCPS will test awareness and efficacy of
these efforts. The survey also identified
that overseas voters are more likely to
avail themselves of electronic options
when requesting their ballots (compared
to active duty military, who rely more
often on postal mail). These results
guided changes to the 2020 survey,
which further probes this difference.
Finally, the 2018 survey allows for a
midterm-to-midterm comparison of the
overseas voting experience from 2014 to
2018—and the 2020 version will permit
a similar comparison to the 2016
presidential election.
To obtain the necessary information,
the OCPS will use data collected from
a sample of registered overseas civilian
voters in conjunction with previous
country level estimates developed by
FVAP research and establish a research
method to assist FVAP in reporting
voter registration and participation rates
for the 2020 election.

Good Cause for Late Notice: This

Storage Subcommittee related to the
ongoing increase in COVID–19 cases
have led the RTIC to conclude that, out
of an abundance of caution, an
electronic meeting is appropriate.
The meeting is being moved to a
wholly electronic format in light of
travel restrictions affecting members of
the RTIC Energy Storage Subcommittee
and related to the ongoing increase in
coronavirus (COVID–19) cases.

Availability of Environmental
Assessment
In accordance with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and
the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission’s regulations, 18 CFR part
380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), the
Office of Energy Projects has reviewed
the application for a license to construct
and operate a wave energy test facility
for the PacWave South Hydrokinetic
Project (project) and has prepared an
Environmental Assessment (EA). Project
facilities would be located on the Outer
Continental Shelf (OCS) in the Pacific
Ocean, in state territorial waters off the
coast of Newport, Oregon, and on state
and private lands. The project would
occupy 2.65 square miles (1,695 acres)

In the EA, Commission staff analyzes
the potential environmental effects of
the project and concludes that issuing a
license for the project, with appropriate
environmental measures, would not
constitute a major federal action
significantly affecting the quality of the
human environment.

interested persons an opportunity to
