Type of Review: Extension without
change of a currently approved
collection.
Respondents/Affected Public:
Individuals and Households.

Abstract: Federal Student Aid (FSA)
requests extension of the Person
Authentication Service (PAS) which
creates an FSA ID, a standard user name
and password solution. In order to
create an FSA ID to gain access to
certain FSA systems (FAFSA on the
Web, NSLDS, StudentLoans.gov, etc.) a
user must register on-line for an FSA ID
account. The FSA ID allows the
customer to have a single identity, even
if there is a name change or change to
other personally identifiable
information. The information collected
to create the FSA ID enables electronic
authentication and authorization of
users for FSA web-based applications
and information and protects users from
unauthorized access to user accounts on
all protected FSA sites.

The
Department of Energy (DOE) regulates
exports of electricity from the United
States to a foreign country, pursuant to
sections 301(b) and 402(f) of the
Department of Energy Organization Act
(42 U.S.C. 7151(b) and 42 U.S.C.
7172(f)). Such exports require
authorization under section 202(e) of
the Federal Power Act (16 U.S.C.
824a(e)).
On September 2, 2020, Clear Power
filed an application with DOE
(Application or App.) to transmit
electric energy from the United States to
Mexico for a term of five years. Clear
Power states that it ‘‘is a California
limited liability corporation with its
principal place of business [in] Folsom,
CA.’’ App. at 1. Clear Power represents
that it ‘‘is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
the Alaywan Trust which owns or is
affiliated with entities that own or
control a combined 11.0 MW
(nameplate) of operating renewable
generation facilities, all located in the
[California Independent System
Operator] market.’’ Id. Clear Power
adds, however, that it ‘‘does not own or
control any electric power generation,
transmission or distribution facilities.’’
Id. at 2.
Clear Power further states that it ‘‘will
purchase the power it plans to export
voluntarily through the electric energy
markets in the United States . . . and/
or from electric utilities, wholesale
generators, power marketers, and other
parties, and thus such power will be
surplus to the needs of the selling
parties or organization[s].’’ App. at 3.
Clear Power contends that its exports
‘‘will not impair or tend to impede the
sufficiency of electric power supplies in
the United States or the regional
coordination of electric utility planning
or operation.’’ Id.
Clear Power states that it will conduct
its operations ‘‘in compliance with any
authorization conditions imposed by the
Department consistent with its prior
orders authorizing power marketers’;
blank authority to export power.’’ App.
at 4. Clear Power also represents that its
exports ‘‘will not exceed the export
limits for the transmission facilities [it
uses], or otherwise cause a violation of
the terms and conditions established in
the export authorization.’’ Id. at 5.
The existing international
transmission facilities to be utilized by
the Applicant have previously been
authorized by Presidential permits
issued pursuant to Executive Order
10485, as amended, and are appropriate
for open access transmission by third
parties.

The
Department of Energy (DOE) regulates
exports of electricity from the United
States to a foreign country, pursuant to
sections 301(b) and 402(f) of the
Department of Energy Organization Act
(42 U.S.C. 7151(b) and 42 U.S.C.
7172(f)). Such exports require
authorization under section 202(e) of
the Federal Power Act (16 U.S.C.
824a(e)).
On October 13, 2020, CWP Energy
filed an application with DOE
(Application or App.) to transmit
electric energy from the United States to
Canada for a term of five years. CWP
Energy represents that it is a subsidiary
of McGill-St. Laurent, a Canada
Corporation with its principal place of
business in Montre´al, Que´bec, Canada.
The Applicant adds that ‘‘McGill-St.
Laurent and its division CWP Energy,
Inc., is owned by two individuals, Mr.
Phillipe Boisclair, as a majority owner
and Mr. Christian L’Abbe as a minority
owner.’’ App. at 2. CWP Energy adds
that ‘‘Mr. Boisclair and Mr. L’Abbe do
not have any ownership interest or
involvement in any other company that
is a traditional utility or that owns,
operates, or controls any electric
generation, transmission or distribution
facilities, nor do they have any direct
involvement with the energy industry
other than through the ownership of
CWP Energy.’’ Id.
CWP Energy further states that it ‘‘will
purchase power to be exported from a
variety of sources such as power
marketers, independent power
producers, or U.S. electric utilities and
federal power marketing entities as
those terms are defined in Sections
3(22) and 3(19) of the FPA.’’ App. at 3.
CWP Energy contends that any power it
purchases for export would be ‘‘surplus
to the system of the generator and,
therefore, the electric power that [it]
will export on either a firm or
interruptible basis will not impair the
sufficiency of the electric power supply
within the U.S.’’ Id. at 3–4.
CWP Energy states that it will ‘‘abide
by the general conditions consistent
with DOE’s previous grants of
authorization to power marketers as set
forth in its previous orders.’’ App. at 4.
It also represents that its exports ‘‘will
not exceed the export limits for the
facilities, or otherwise cause a violation
of the terms and conditions set forth in
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

the export authorizations for each.’’ Id.
at 5.
