Imperial Irrigation District; Notice of Preliminary Determination
of a Qualifying Conduit Hydropower Facility and Soliciting Comments and
Motions To Intervene

    On November 26, 2014, the Imperial Irrigation District filed a
notice of intent to construct a qualifying conduit hydropower facility,
pursuant to section 30 of the Federal Power Act (FPA), as amended by
section 4 of the Hydropower Regulatory Efficiency Act of 2013 (HREA).
The proposed Fillaree Check on Westside Main Canal In-Conduit
Hydroelectric Project would have an installed capacity of 675 kilowatts
(kW) and would be located on the existing Westside Main Canal. This
conduit transports water for irrigation, municipal, and industrial
purposes. The project would be located near the city of Edgar in
Imperial County, California.
    Applicant Contact: Carl Stills, 1651 West Main Street, El Centro,
CA 92243, Phone No.<PHONE_NUMBER>.
    FERC Contact: Robert Bell, Phone No.<PHONE_NUMBER>, email:
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>    Qualifying Conduit Hydropower Facility Description: The proposed
project would consist of: (1) A proposed 20.2-foot-long, 35.8-foot-wide
open concrete canal intake structure with two 10-foot wide gates; (2) a
proposed 15- by 41-foot powerhouse containing two turbine generator
units with a total installed capacity of 675 kW; (3) the proposed 184-
foot-long, 35.8-foot-wide underground closed concrete box tailrace
structure which returns the water into the Westside Main Canal; and

(4) appurtenant facilities. The proposed project would have an
estimated annual generating capacity of 3,241 megawatt-hours.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R04-OAR-2005-SC-0002-200535(b); FRL-8894-7]

Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; South
Carolina; NOX SIP Call Phase II

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve a source-specific State
Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by the South Carolina
Department of Health and Environmental Control on April 14, 2005. This
revision responds to EPA's regulation entitled, ``Interstate Ozone
Transport: Response to Court Decisions on the Nitrogen Oxides
(NOX) SIP Call, NOX SIP Call Technical
Amendments, and Section 126 Rules,'' otherwise known as the
``NOX SIP Call Phase II.'' This revision meets the
requirements of the NOX SIP Call Phase II, which requires
South Carolina to submit NOX SIP Call Phase II revisions
necessary to achieve applicable, incremental reductions of
NOX, including emission reductions from large internal
combustion engines. Transcontinental Gas Pipeline Corporation Station
140 (Transco) is the only facility in South Carolina affected by the
NOX SIP Call Phase II. The intended effect of this SIP
revision is to reduce emissions of NOX originating in the
State of South Carolina to help attain and maintain the national
ambient air quality standard for ozone. This action is being taken
pursuant to section 110 of the Clean Air Act.
    In the Final Rules Section of this Federal Register, EPA is
approving the State's source-specific SIP revision as a direct final
rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a
noncontroversial submittal and anticipates no adverse comments. A
detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in the direct final
rule. If no adverse comments are received in response to this rule, no
further activity is contemplated. If EPA receives adverse comments, the
direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received
will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed
rule. EPA will not institute a second comment period on this document.
Any parties interested in commenting on this document should do so at
this time.

DATES: Written comments must be received on or before May 26, 2009.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R04-
