0082.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: The Whistleblower Provision of
section 23 of the Commodity Exchange
Act (OMB Control No. 3038–0082). This
is a request for extension of a currently
approved information collection.
Abstract: 17 CFR 165.3(a) requires the
submission of information to the
Commission on a Form TCR. The Form
TCR, ‘‘Tip, Complaint, or Referral,’’ and
the instructions thereto, are designed to
capture basic identifying information
about a complainant and elicit sufficient
information to determine whether the
conduct alleged suggests a violation of
the Commodity Exchange Act. 17 CFR
165.7(b)(1) requires the submission of
information to the Commission on a
Form WB–APP. The Form WB–APP,
‘‘Application for Award for Original
Information Provided Pursuant to
Section 23 of the Commodity Exchange
Act,’’ and the instructions thereto, are
designed to elicit sufficient information
to determine whether and to what
extent a claimant qualifies for a
whistleblower award.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number.2 On November 21,
2023, the Commission published in the
Federal Register notice of the proposed
extension of this information collection
and provided 60 days for public
comment on the proposed extension, 88
FR 81064 (‘‘60-Day Notice’’). The
Commission received one comment
requesting individual staff feedback on
1 17
CFR 145.9.
U.S.C. 3512, 5 CFR 1320.5(b)(2)(i) and
1320.8(b)(3)(vi). See also 46 FR 63035 (Dec. 30,
1981).

each submission received, in addition to
the automated reply currently sent by
the CFTC as notice of receipt. We
appreciate the comment but would like
to clarify that determinations on the
submitted applications (including their
supplements) are provided in due
course according to the procedures
outlined in 17 CFR part 165. Given the
non-public nature of investigations, it
would not be feasible for the CFTC to
provide individual feedback on each
submission received.
Burden Statement: The respondent
burden for this collection is estimated to
be as follows:
Estimated Number of Respondents:
1800 per year.
Estimated Average Burden Hours per
Respondent: 0.5 hour.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 900 hours.
Frequency of Collection: Once.
There are no capital costs or operating
and maintenance costs associated with
this collection.

Energy Stream, LLC; Notice of Intent
To Prepare an Environmental
Assessment
On July 15, 2022, Energy Stream, LLC
filed an application for a subsequent
license for the 512-kilowatt M.S.C.
Hydroelectric Project (M.S.C. Project or
project; FERC No. 5679). The M.S.C.
Project is located on the Quinebaug
River, in Windham County,
Connecticut.

regulations, on November 14, 2023,
Commission staff issued a notice that
the project was ready for environmental
analysis (REA notice). Based on the

staff intends to prepare an
Environmental Assessment (EA) on the
application to license the M.S.C. Project.
The EA will be issued and circulated
for review by all interested parties. All
