Under, FAC–002–4, the new
collection FERC–725D(1) represents a
minor additional burden to planning
coordinators, due to the requirement
that they develop the definition of
‘‘qualified change’’ for new and existing
interconnections of generation,
transmission or electricity end user
facilities. This burden is expected to be
greater in years one and two than in
year three and beyond for FAC–002–4.
The burden and cost estimates for FAC–
002–4 are based on the increase in the
reporting and recordkeeping burden
imposed by the revised Reliability
Standards. Our estimates are based on
the NERC Compliance Registry as of
September 16, 2022, which indicates 63
planning coordinators.

The proposed Great Mills Hydro
Project (Plant #1) would consist of the
following: (1) a new 330-foot-long
concrete gravity dam at the site of an
existing breached dam; (2) an
impoundment with an approximate
surface area of 220 acres and a storage
capacity of 1,100 acre-feet at a normal
pool elevation of 609.05 feet National
Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929; (4) a
new 85-foot-long by 65-foot-wide
reinforced concrete powerhouse
housing two or more axial flow vertical
turbine-generator units with a total
installed capacity of 5 megawatts; (5)
additional new DIVE-turbine-generator
(generator directly connected to the
turbine shaft that can be completely
submerged) units to utilize flows below
the minimum or above the maximum
hydraulic capacities of the main
powerhouse; (6) a new 50-foot-long by
50-foot-wide switchyard; (7) two new
access roads, one on the north and the
