[Project No. 2804-035]

Goose River Hydro, Inc.; Notice of Availability of Environmental
Assessment

    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission)
regulations, 18 CFR part 380, the Office of Energy Projects has
reviewed the application for license for the Goose River Hydroelectric
Project, located on the Goose River, in Waldo County, Maine, and has
prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) for the project. The project
does not occupy federal lands.
    The EA contains the staff's analysis of the potential environmental
impacts of the project and concludes that licensing the project, with
appropriate environmental protective measures, would not constitute a
major federal action that would significantly affect the quality of the
human environment.
    A copy of the EA is available for review at the Commission in the
Public Reference Room or may be viewed on the Commission's website at
http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket
number excluding the last three digits in the docket number field to

measures that a community is required either to adopt or to show
evidence of having in effect in order to qualify or remain qualified
for participation in the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA's)
National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). In addition, the FIRM and FIS
report are used by insurance agents and others to calculate appropriate
flood insurance premium rates for buildings and the contents of those
buildings.

DATES: The effective date of September 18, 2013 which has been
established for the FIRM and, where applicable, the supporting FIS
report showing the new or modified flood hazard information for each
community.

ADDRESSES: The FIRM, and if applicable, the FIS report containing the
final flood hazard information for each community is available for
inspection at the respective Community Map Repository address listed in
the tables below and will be available online through the FEMA Map
Service Center at www.msc.fema.gov by the effective date indicated

Issuance of an NPDES General Permit for Oil and Gas Geotechnical
Surveys and Related Activities in Federal Waters of the Beaufort and
Chukchi Seas

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of availability of final NPDES general permit.

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

SUMMARY: The Director, Office of Water and Watersheds, EPA Region 10,
is publishing notice of availability of the final National Pollutant
Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Permit for Oil and Gas
Geotechnical Surveys and Related Activities in Federal Waters of the
Beaufort and Chukchi Seas (Geotechnical General Permit; Permit No. AKG-
28-4300).
    The Geotechnical General Permit authorizes twelve types of
discharges from facilities engaged in oil and gas geotechnical surveys
to evaluate the subsurface characteristics of the seafloor and related
activities in federal waters of the Beaufort and Chukchi Seas.
Geotechnical borings are collected to assess the structural properties
of subsurface soil conditions for potential placement of oil and gas
installations, which may include production and drilling platforms, ice
islands, anchor structures for floating exploration drilling vessels,
and potential buried pipeline corridors. Geotechnical surveys result in
a disturbance of the seafloor and produce discharges consisting of
soil, rock and cuttings materials, in addition to facility-specific
waste streams authorized under this General Permit. Geotechnical
related activities also result in a disturbance of the seafloor and
produce similar discharges. These activities may include feasibility
testing of equipment that disturbs the seafloor, and testing and
evaluation of trenching technologies. The Geotechnical General Permit
contains effluent limitations and requirements that ensure the
discharges will not cause an unreasonable degradation of the marine
environment, as required by Section 403(c) of the Clean Water Act (i.e.
Ocean Discharge Criteria Evaluation). 33 U.S.C. 1342(c).

DATES: The issuance date of the Geotechnical NPDES General Permit is
the date of publication of this notice. The Geotechnical General Permit
shall become effective on March 2, 2015. Operators must submit a Notice
of Intent (NOI) to discharge at least 90 days prior to initiation of
discharges.

ADDRESSES: Copies of the Geotechnical General Permit, the Response to
Comments Document, and the Ocean Discharge Criteria Evaluation may be
found on the EPA Region 10 Web site at: http://yosemite.epa.gov/r10/water.nsf/npdes+permits/arctic-gp. Copies of the documents are
available upon request.
    Mail: Written requests for copies of the documents may be submitted
to Audrey Washington, EPA Region 10, Office of Water and Watersheds,
1200 6th Avenue, Suite 900, OWW-191, Seattle, WA 98101-3140.
    Email: Electronic requests may be sent to:
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>    Telephone: Requests by telephone may be made to Audrey Washington
at<PHONE_NUMBER>. See SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION for other document
viewing locations.

1448<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 22, 2013, EPA issued a draft
Geotechnical General Permit for public review, and established a
comment deadline of January 27, 2014 (78 FR 70042). Notice of the draft
General Permit was also published in the Anchorage Daily News, the
Arctic Sounder, and Petroleum News. Public meetings and hearings were
held in communities on the North Slope and in Anchorage the week of
January 6, 2014. In response to requests for an extension of the
deadline from the Alaska Eskimo Whaling Commission and the Inupiat
Community of the Arctic Slope, EPA extended the comment period for an
additional 23 days, from January 27, 2014 to February 19, 2014 (79 FR
4344).
    Based on comments received during public review of the draft
Geotechnical General Permit, EPA determined that certain permit
provisions warranted further consideration and notified interested
parties of this determination on March 21, 2014. To further that
process, EPA met with several commenters to clarify certain technical
issues and obtain additional information. The public comments and
subsequent information resulted in EPA revising several permit
provisions, which were described in the Fact Sheet accompanying the re-
proposal.
    On August 15, 2014, EPA re-proposed the Geotechnical General Permit
for public review, and established a comment deadline of September 15,
2014 (79 FR 48147). In response to requests for an extension of the
deadline from the Alaska Eskimo Whaling Commission, EPA extended the
comment period for an additional 15 days, from September 15, 2014 to
September 30, 2014 (79 FR 56577).
    Certain provisions in the General Permit have been revised in
response to comments and information received from tribal, state and
local governments, the Alaska Eskimo Whaling Commission, environmental
advocacy groups, industry representatives, and individual citizens. All
comments, along with EPA's responses, are summarized in the Response to
Comments document.
    Document Viewing Locations. The final Geotechnical General Permit,
Response to Comments Document and Ocean Discharge Criteria Evaluation
may also be viewed at the following locations:
    (1) EPA Region 10 Library, Park Place Building, 1200 6th Avenue,

1200 6th Avenue, Suite 900, Seattle, WA 98101, between 9:00 a.m. and
4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Contact Erin Seyfried at
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or<PHONE_NUMBER>.
    Oil Spill Requirements. Section 311 of the Act, 33 U.S.C. 1321,
prohibits the discharge of oil and hazardous materials in harmful
quantities. Discharges authorized under the Geotechnical General Permit
are excluded from the provisions of CWA Section 311, 33 U.S.C. 1321.
However, the Geotechnical General Permit will not preclude the
institution of legal action, or relieve the permittees from any
responsibilities, liabilities, or penalties for other unauthorized
discharges of oil and hazardous materials, which are covered by Section
311.
    Endangered Species Act. Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act, 16
U.S.C. 1531-1544, requires federal agencies to consult with the
National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service (USFWS) if their actions have the potential to either
beneficially or adversely affect any threatened or endangered species,
or designated critical habitat. EPA analyzed the discharges proposed to
be authorized by the Geotechnical General Permit, and their potential
to adversely affect any of the threatened or endangered species or
designated critical habitat areas in the vicinity of the discharges in
a Biological Evaluation dated December 2013. EPA completed a
supplemental analysis evaluating the effects of interrelated and

interdependent actions on the Pacific walrus on February 11, 2014. On
January 31 and March 19, 2014, EPA received letters of concurrence from
the USFWS and NMFS, respectively, agreeing with EPA's determinations of
effects. On March 13, 2014, in response to EPA's request for a
conference on the Pacific walrus, the USFWS confirmed that the proposed
permit action would not jeopardize the continued existence of this
species.
    Essential Fish Habitat. The Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation
and Management Act requires EPA to consult with NMFS when a proposed
permit action has the potential to adversely affect Essential Fish
Habitat (EFH). EPA's EFH assessment is included as Appendix A to the
BE. The EFH assessment concluded that the discharges authorized by the
Geotechnical General Permit will not adversely affect EFH.
    Coastal Zone Management Act. As of July 1, 2011, there is no longer
a Coastal Zone Management Act (CZMA) program in Alaska. Consequently,
federal agencies are no longer required to provide the State of Alaska
with CZMA consistency determinations.
    Executive Order 12866. The Office of Management and Budget exempts
this action from the review requirements of Executive Order 12866
pursuant to Section 6 of that order.
    Paperwork Reduction Act. EPA has reviewed the requirements imposed
on regulated facilities in the Geotechnical General Permit and finds
them consistent with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980, 44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.
    Regulatory Flexibility Act. Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act
(RFA), 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., a federal agency must prepare an initial
regulatory flexibility analysis ``for any proposed rule'' for which the
agency ``is required by section 553 of the Administrative Procedure Act
(APA), or any other law, to publish general notice of proposed
rulemaking.'' The RFA exempts from this requirement any rule that the
issuing agency certifies ``will not, if promulgated, have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.'' EPA has
concluded that NPDES general permits are permits, not rulemakings,
under the APA and thus not subject to APA rulemaking requirements or
the RFA.
    Unfunded Mandates Reform Act. Section 201 of the Unfunded Mandates
Reform Act (UMRA), Public Law 104-4, generally requires federal
agencies to assess the effects of their ``regulatory actions'' (defined
to be the same as ``rules'' subject to the RFA) on tribal, state, and
local governments and the private sector. However, the Geotechnical
General Permit is not a ``rule'' subject to the RFA, and are therefore
not subject to the UMRA.
    Appeal of Permit. Any interested person may appeal the Geotechnical
General Permit in the Federal Court of Appeals in accordance with
section 509(b)(1) of the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. 1369(b)(1). This
appeal must be filed within 120 days of the General Permit issuance
date. Affected persons may not challenge the conditions of the General

procedure.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by establishing Class E airspace at
Riverside/Rubidoux Flabob Airport, Riverside, CA. Controlled airspace
extending upward from 700 feet above the surface is necessary to
accommodate aircraft using the new VOR (SIAP) at Riverside/Rubidoux
Flabob Airport, Riverside, CA. This action would enhance the safety and
management of aircraft operations at Riverside/Rubidoux Flabob Airport.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order 7400.9T, signed August 27, 2009, and effective September 15,
2009, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E
airspace designation listed in this document will be published
subsequently in this Order.
    The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves
an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
Therefore, this proposed regulation; (1) is not a ``significant
regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a
``significant rule'' under DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44
FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a
regulatory evaluation as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since
this is a routine matter that will only affect air traffic procedures
and air navigation, it is certified that this proposed rule, when
promulgated, would not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, section 106, describes
the authority for the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation
Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's authority.
This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in
subtitle VII, part A, subpart I, section 40103.
    Under that section, the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations
to assign the use of the airspace necessary to ensure the safety of
aircraft and the efficient use of airspace. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority as it establishes controlled airspace at
Riverside/Rubidoux Flabob Airport, Riverside, CA.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71

    Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (air).

The Proposed Amendment

    Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the Federal
Aviation Administration proposes to amend 14 CFR part 71 as follows:

PART 71--DESIGNATION OF CLASS A, B, C, D, AND E AIRSPACE AREAS; AIR
TRAFFIC SERVICE ROUTES; AND REPORTING POINTS

    1. The authority citation for 14 CFR part 71 continues to read as
follows:

24 FR 9565, 3 CFR, 1959-1963 Comp., p. 389.

Sec.  71.1  [Amended]

    2. The incorporation by reference in 14 CFR 71.1 of the FAA Order
7400.9T, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, signed August 27,
2009, and effective September 15, 2009 is amended as follows:

Paragraph 6005 Class E airspace areas extending upward from 700
feet or more above the surface of the earth.

    k. This application is not ready for environmental analysis at this
time.
    l. The existing project consists of: (1) A 15.5-foot-high by 65-
foot-wide diversion dam that impounds a small reservoir with a surface
area of approximately 0.15 acre and a storage capacity of approximately
1-acre-foot; (2) a 30-inch-diameter, 11,632-foot-long black steel
penstock; (3) a 34-foot-long by 41-foot-wide stone powerhouse
containing an impulse turbine and one generating unit with an installed
capacity of 625 kilowatts; (4) a 4-foot-wide by 150-foot-long tailrace
channel; (5) a 12.5-kilovolt, approximately 21,000-foot-long
transmission line; and (6) appurtenant facilities. The estimated
average annual generation (2012 to 2017) is 2,602.6 megawatt-hours.
    Beaver City proposes to abandon the existing: (1) Powerhouse; (2)
portion of penstock between the existing powerhouse and proposed new
powerhouse; (3) buried line from the turbine generator to the
transformer on the west side of the existing powerhouse; (4) old
transformer; (5) overhead line from the old transformer to the start of
the transmission line on the west bank of the Beaver River; and (6)
tailrace. As such, Beaver City proposes to remove approximately 50-feet
of the existing penstock, increase the existing project boundary, and
construct: (1) A new 40-foot-long by 27-foot-wide metal-walled
powerhouse, with a reinforced concrete foundation, to contain one new
turbine-generator with an installed capacity of 720 kilowatts; (2) a
new approximately 35-foot-long buried line from the new turbine-
generator to the new transformer; (3) a new approximately 33-foot-long
buried line from the new transformer to a 40-foot-tall intermediate
pole of wood and metal construction; (4) a new 120-foot-long overhead
line from the intermediate pole to the start of the existing
transmission line; and (5) a new 43-foot-long tailrace that tailrace
varies from 7.5 feet wide adjacent to powerhouse to 19 feet wide at
point of discharge. The new powerhouse, power distribution facilities,
and tailrace would be constructed approximately 50 feet upstream
(south) of the existing powerhouse, enclosed by new approximately 240
feet of 8-foot-tall chain-link perimeter fence, and the existing
powerhouse would be retained within the project boundary as an historic
structure.
