SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Wetland Determination Automated Data Sheets and Jurisdictional Determination Forms; Eng Form 6116 (1–9); OMB Control Number 0710–XXXX. Type of Request: New. Number of Respondents: 33,279. Responses per Respondent: 1. Annual Responses: 33,279. Average Burden per Response: 63.03 minutes. Annual Burden Hours: 34,960. Needs and Uses: In an effort to address regional wetland characteristics and improve the accuracy and efficiency of wetland delineation procedures, the USACE Research and Development Center (ERDC) developed ten regional supplements to the USACE manual, the most recent of which were issued in 2006. In developing the regional supplements, the USACE recognized that a single national manual is unable to consider regional differences that are important to the identification and functioning of wetlands. The wetland indicators and guidance provided in the 10 regional supplements are designed to be used in combination with the USACE manual to identify wetland waters of the United States. These forms are most often completed by USACE Project Managers or environmental consultants, but may also be completed by applicants themselves. The Automated Wetland Determination Sheets (ADSs) in this collection package streamline the information collection process by incorporating reference material and analytical processes directly into the form, which is provided as a Microsoft Excel document rather than the PDF form included in the regional supplements. The ADSs also automatically complete data analysis using inputted information, saving users time and effort and reducing the likelihood of human error. Applicants for USACE permits are generally required to submit JDs as part of their permit application or in support of the permit evaluation process. If wetlands are present, the USACE generally requires that JDs include adequately documented wetland data sheets in order for the JD to be considered technically adequate. The ADSs are formatted such that they may be readily E:\FR\FM\13NON1.SGM 13NON1 jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES 72640 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 220 / Friday, November 13, 2020 / Notices converted to Portable Document Format (PDF) for inclusion as part of the applicant’s JD report. Jurisdictional Determination Forms are tools used by the USACE to help implement Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) and Sections 9 and 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899 (RHA). JDs specify what geographic areas will be treated as subject to regulation by the USACE under one or both statutes. The three types of JDs included in this package are the Approved Jurisdictional Determination (AJD), Dry Land AJD, and Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (PJD). The AJD form provides an official determination that there are/are not jurisdictional aquatic resources on a parcel based on the jurisdictional requirements, while the Dry Land AJD provides official determination that jurisdictional aquatic resources are absent. The PJD form is used to determine whether aquatic resources that exist on a particular parcel ‘‘may be’’ subject to regulatory jurisdiction. It should be noted that the forms in this collection package may support associated permit reviews included in collection 0710–0003 which expires on 28 February 2022. Though they are being reviewed to be cleared under a new OMB control number, these forms and data sheets or any variations thereof will be included in the next renewal request for collection 0710–0003, which includes the standard and nationwide permit application forms, and will also include any local district forms in existence when the renewal package is submitted.

Needs and Uses: The Water Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act of 2014 (WIFIA, see also at 33 U.S.C. 3901–3914) authorizes entities such as corporations, partnerships, joint ventures, trusts, state infrastructure financing authorities, and federal, tribal, state or local government entities are SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00021 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 9990 eligible to receive federal credit assistance. The Preliminary Application collection requirement is necessary to (1) validate the eligibility of the prospective borrower and the proposed project, (2) perform a preliminary creditworthiness assessment, (3) perform a preliminary engineering and environmental feasibility assessment, and (4) evaluate the project against the selection criteria. Based on evaluation of the Preliminary Application, USACE will invite prospective borrowers to submit an application for projects likely to proceed to closing. Only five applicants are expected to move forward with the application process, and thus the Application is not subject to the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act and not included in this information collection proposal.
