SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title: FERC–576, Report of Service Interruptions or Damage to Facilities. OMB Control No.: 1902–0004. Type of Request: Three-year extension of the FERC–576 information collection requirements with no changes to the current reporting requirements. Abstract: Per 18 CFR 260.9, natural gas pipeline companies must report (i) damage to any jurisdictional natural gas facilities other than liquefied natural gas facilities caused by a hurricane, earthquake or other natural disaster or terrorist activity that results in a loss of or reduction in pipeline throughput or storage deliverability; and (ii) serious interruptions of service to any shipper involving jurisdictional natural gas 60143), a copy of such report must be submitted to the Director of the Commission’s Division of Pipeline Certificates, within 30 days of the reportable incident. Natural gas companies must also send a copy of submitted incident reports to each state commission for the state(s) in which the reported service interruption occurred.2 If the Commission did not collect this information, it would lose a data point that assists in the monitoring of transactions, operations, and reliability of interstate pipelines. The Commission published a 60-day notice for FERC–576 on May 4, 2024 (89 FR 15569), with a due date of May 3, 2024. The Commission received no public comments in response. Type of Respondents: Natural gas companies experiencing service interruptions or damage to facilities. Estimate of Annual Burden: The Commission estimates the average annual burden 3 and cost 4 for this information collection as follows. Number of respondents Annual number of responses per respondent Total number of responses Average burden hrs. & cost ($) per response Total annual burden hrs. & total annual cost Cost per respondent ($) (1) (2) (1) * (2) = (3) (4) (3) * (4) = (5) (5) ÷ (1) Notification of Incident—Service Interruption.

EIS No. 20240078, Draft Supplement, BLM, USFWS, UT, Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement to 1 The Department of Transportation defines ‘‘incident’’ at 49 CFR 191.3. The regulatory thresholds for an ‘‘incident report’’ include (1) A death, or personal injury necessitating in-patient hospitalization; (2) Estimated property damage of $122,000 or more; (3) Unintentional estimated gas loss of three million cubic feet or more; (4) Emergency shutdown of a facility; or (5) An event that is significant in the judgment of the operator. 2 See 18 CFR 260.9(d) and 260.9(e). 3 Burden is defined as the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. For further explanation of what is included in the information collection burden, refer to 5 CFR part 1320. 4 The Commission staff estimates that the average respondent for FERC–576 is similarly situated to the Commission, in terms of salary plus benefits.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For additional information about the information collection, contact Cathy Williams at (202) 418–2918. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMB Control Number: 3060–1294. Title: FCC Authorization for Radio Service License—3.45 GHz Band Service. Form Number: N/A. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities, state, local, or tribal government, and not for profit institutions. Number of Respondents and Responses: 52 respondents, 8,197 responses. Estimated Time per Response: 5–20 hours. Frequency of Response: Third party disclosure requirement; on occasion reporting requirement and periodic reporting requirement. Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. Statutory authority for these collections are contained in 47 U.S.C. 151, 152, 154, 154(i), 155(c), 157, 201, 202, 208, 214, 301, 302a, 303, 307, 308, 309, 310, 311, 314, 316, 319, 324, 331, 332, 333, 336, 534, 535, and 554 of the Communications Act of 1934. Total Annual Burden: 9,198 hours. Total Annual Cost: $10,353,000. Needs and Uses: On March 17, 2021, the Federal Communications Commission (‘‘Commission’’ or ‘‘FCC’’) adopted a Second Report and Order, FCC 21–32, GN Docket No. WT–19–348 (Second Report and Order) that establishes rules for flexible-use wireless access to the 100 megahertz in the 3450–3550 MHz (3.45 GHz) band, creating the new 3.45 GHz Service. The rules will create additional capacity for wireless broadband allowing full-power operations across the band in the entire contiguous United States, while also ensuring full protection of incumbent Federal operations remaining in particular locations. As part of this process, the Commission also adopted ADDRESSES: PO 00000 Frm 00026 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 rules related to the relocation of incumbent non-Federal radiolocation operations, and reimbursement of expenses related to such relocation. Sections 2.016 and 27.1603 require a 3.45 GHz Service licensee whose license area overlaps with a Cooperative Planning Area or Periodic Use Area, as defined in those sections, to coordinate deployments pursuant to those licenses in those areas with relevant Federal agencies. This coordination may take the form of a mutually acceptable operator-to-operator coordination agreement between the licensee and the relevant Federal agency. In the absence of such an agreement, this coordination will include a formal request for access through a Department of Defense online portal, which will include the submission of information related to the technical characteristics of the base stations and associated mobile units to be used in the covered area. It does not require a revision to the FCC Form 601. Section 27.1605 requires non-Federal, secondary radiolocation operations which are relocating from the 3.45 GHz band to alternate spectrum to clear the band for new flexible-use wireless operations to submit certain information to a clearinghouse in order to ensure their relocation costs are fairly reimbursed. It does not require a revision to the FCC Form 601. Section 27.1607 requires 3.45 GHz Service licensees to share certain information about their network operations in that band with operators in the adjacent Citizens Broadband Radio Service in order to enable the latter to synchronize their operations to reduce the risk of harmful interference. In response to a request by a Citizens Broadband Radio Service operator, a 3.45 GHz Service licensee must provide information to enable Time Division Duplex synchronization. The exact nature of the information to be provided will be determined by a negotiation between the two entities, conducted on a good faith basis. The 3.45 GHz Service licensee must keep the information current as its network operations change. This does not require a revision to the FCC Form 601. Section 27.14(w) requires 3.45 GHz Service licensees to provide information on the extent to which they provide service in their license areas. Licensees are required to file two such reports: The first four (4) years after its initial license grant and the second eight (8) years after such grant, unless they failed to meet the first set of performance requirements, in which case the second report is due seven (7) years after the initial grant. These reports are filed E:\FR\FM\10MYN1.SGM 10MYN1
