a copy of the document on that resource agency.
    k. Description of Request: PacifiCorp requests a temporary variance
to deviate from the reservoir elevation operating range stipulated
under the approved operation plan for the project. The variance would
allow PacifiCorp to draw down the reservoir and obtain preliminary data
that would inform a number of proposed studies for the project's
relicensing process. PacifiCorp would also use the drawdown period to
perform maintenance work at the project. PacifiCorp proposes to draw
down the reservoir to elevation 4,390.5 feet, which is 15.75 feet below
the lower limit of the normal operating range. PacifiCorp plans to
begin the drawdown on approximately October 25, 2019, with the target
drawdown elevation of 4,390.5 feet being reached by November 1, 2019.
PacifiCorp anticipates that it would begin refilling the reservoir on
approximately November 8, 2019, with the refill taking approximately
eight days to complete.

                                Ziram (034805)
                     Screening Level Usage Analysis (SLUA)
                              Date: 20 June 2014

What is a Screening Level Usage Analysis (SLUA)?
 Available estimates of pesticide usage data for a particular active ingredient that is used on agricultural crops in the United States.
 Pesticide usage data obtained from various sources.  The data are then merged, averaged, and rounded so that the presented information is not proprietary, business confidential, or trade secret.
What does it contain?
 Pesticide usage data for a single active ingredient only.
 Agricultural use sites (crops) that the pesticide is reported to be used on.
 Available pesticide usage information from U.S. states that produce 80% or more of a crop, in most cases, or less than 80%, in rare cases, depending on the scope of the survey and available resources.
 Annual percent of crop treated (average & maximum) for each agricultural crop.
 Average annual pounds of the pesticide applied for each agricultural crop (i.e., for the states surveyed, not for the entire United States).
What assumptions can I make about the reported data?
 Average pounds of active ingredient applied - Values are calculated by merging pesticide usage data sources together; averaging across all observations, then rounding.  Note:  If the estimated value is less than 500, then that value is labeled <500.  Estimated values between 500 & <1,000,000 are rounded to 1 significant digit.  Estimated values of 1,000,000 or greater are rounded to 2 significant digits.)
 Average percent of crop treated - Values are calculated by merging data sources together; averaging by year, averaging across all years, & rounding to the nearest multiple of 5.  Note:  If the estimated value is less than 2.5, then the value is labeled <2.5.  If the estimated value is less than 1, then the value is labeled <1.
 Maximum percent of crop treated - Value is the single maximum value reported across all data sources, across all years, & rounded up to the nearest multiple of 5.  Note:  If the estimated value is less than 2.5, then the value is labeled <2.5.
What are the data sources used?
 USDA-NASS (United States Department of Agriculture's National Agricultural Statistics Service)  -  pesticide usage data from 2004 to 2012.
 Private pesticide market research  -  pesticide usage data from 2004 to 2012.
 California Department of Pesticide Regulation (DPR) Pesticide Use Reporting (PUR) data for 2004 to 2011.
What are the limitations to the data?
 Additional registered uses may exist but are not included because the available surveys do not report usage (e.g., small acreage crops).
 Lack of reported usage data for the pesticide on a crop does not imply zero usage.
 Usage data on a particular site may be noted in data sources, but not quantified.  In these instances, the site would not be reported in the SLUA.
 Non-agricultural use sites (e.g., turf, post-harvest, mosquito control, etc.) are not reported in the SLUA.  A separate request must be made to receive these estimates.
 Some sites show some use, even though they are not on the label.  This usage could be due to various factors, including, but not limited to Section 18 requests, existing stocks of the chemical, data collection errors, and experimental use permits (EUPs).

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC
20549-2736

Extension:
    Rule 15g-5

    Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (``PRA'') (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget (``OMB'') a request for approval of extension of the
previously approved collection of information provided for in Rule 15g-
5--Disclosure of Compensation of Associated Persons in Connection with
Penny Stock Transactions--(17 CFR 240.15g-5) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.).
    Rule 15g-5 requires brokers and dealers to disclose to customers
the amount of compensation to be received by their sales agents in
connection with penny stock transactions. The purpose of the rule is to
increase the level of disclosure to investors concerning penny stocks
generally and specific penny stock transactions.

    The Commission estimates that approximately 178 broker-dealers will
spend an average of approximately 87 hours annually to comply with the
rule. Thus, the total time burden is approximately 15,486 burden-hours
per year.
    Rule 15g-5 contains record retention requirements. Compliance with
the rule is mandatory.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to, a collection of information under the PRA unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control number.
    The public may view background documentation for this information
collection at the following website: www.reginfo.gov. Find this
particular information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day
Review--Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Alex Ansley, Recall Management
Division (NVS-215), Room W46-412, NHTSA, 1200 New Jersey Ave.
Washington, DC 20590. Telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
before an agency submits a proposed collection of information to OMB
for approval, it must first publish a document in the Federal Register
providing a 60-day comment period and otherwise consult with members of
the public and affected agencies concerning each proposed collection of
information. The OMB has promulgated regulations describing what must
be included in such a document. Under OMB's regulation, see 5 CFR
1320.8(d), an agency must ask for public comment on the following:
    (i) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for
the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have practical utility;
    (ii) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
    (iii) how to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and
    (iv) how to minimize the burden of the collection of information on
those who are to respond, including the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology, e.g. permitting electronic
submission of responses.
    In compliance with these requirements, NHTSA asks for public
comments on the following collection of information:
    Title: Petitions for Hearings on Notification and Remedy of
Defects.
    Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved information
collection.
    OMB Control Number: 2127-0039.
    Affected Public: Businesses or others for profit.
    Abstract: Sections 30118(e) and 30120(e) of Title 49 of the United
States Code specify that any interested person may petition NHTSA to
hold a hearing to determine whether a manufacturer of motor vehicles or
motor vehicle equipment has met its obligation to notify owners,
purchasers, and dealers of vehicles or equipment of a safety-related
defect or noncompliance with a Federal motor vehicle safety standard in
the manufacturer's products and to remedy that defect or noncompliance.
    To implement these statutory provisions, NHTSA promulgated 49 CFR
part 557, Petitions for Hearings on Notification and Remedy of Defects.
Part 577 establishes procedures providing the submission and
disposition of petitions for hearings on the issues of whether the
manufacturer has met its obligation to notify owners, purchasers, and
dealers of safety-related defects or noncompliance, or to remedy such
defect or noncompliance free of charge.
    Estimated annual burden: During NHTSA's last renewal of this
information collection, the agency estimated it would receive one
petition a year, with an estimated one hour of preparation for each
petition, for a total of one burden hour per year. That estimate
remains unchanged with this notice.
    Number of respondents: 1.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[EPA-HQ-OW-2003-0033; FRL-9974-08-OEI]

Information Collection Request Submitted to OMB for Review and

address: [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supporting documents, which explain in
detail the information that the EPA will be collecting, are available
in the public docket for this ICR. The docket can be viewed online at
www.regulations.gov or in person at the EPA Docket Center, EPA West,
Room 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave. NW, Washington, DC. The telephone
number for the Docket Center is<PHONE_NUMBER>. For additional
information about EPA's public docket, visit http://www.epa.gov/dockets.
    Abstract: Regulations implementing section 301(h) of the Clean
Water Act (CWA) are found at 40 CFR part 125, subpart G. The section
301(h) program involves collecting information from two sources: (1)
The municipal wastewater treatment facility, commonly called a publicly
owned treatment works (POTW), and (2) the state in which the POTW is
located. A POTW holding a current waiver or reapplying for a waiver
provides application, monitoring, and toxic control program
information. The state provides information on its determination
whether the discharge under the proposed conditions of the waiver
ensures the protection of water quality, biological habitats, and
beneficial uses of receiving waters and whether the discharge will
result in additional treatment, pollution control, or any other
requirement for any other point or nonpoint sources. The state also
provides information to certify that the discharge will meet all
applicable state laws and that the state accepts all permit conditions.
There are 4 situations where information will be required under the
section 301(h) program: (1) A POTW reapplying for a section 301(h)
waiver. As the permits with section 301(h) waivers reach their
expiration dates, EPA must have updated information on the discharge to
determine whether the section 301(h) criteria are still being met and
whether the section 301(h) waiver should be reissued. (2) Monitoring
and toxic control program information: Once a waiver has been granted,
EPA must continue to assess whether the discharge is meeting section
301(h) criteria, and that the receiving water quality, biological
habitats, and beneficial uses of the receiving waters are protected. To
do this, EPA needs monitoring information furnished by the permittee.
(3) Application revision information: Section 125.59(d) of 40 CFR
allows a POTW to revise its application one time only, following a
tentative decision by EPA to deny the waiver request. In its
application revision, the POTW usually corrects deficiencies and
changes proposed treatment levels as well as outfall and diffuser
locations. The application revision is a voluntary submission for the
applicant, and a letter of intent to revise the application must be
submitted within 45 days of EPA's tentative decision (40 CFR
125.59(f)). (4) State determination and state certification
information: For revised or renewal applications for section 301(h)
waivers, EPA needs a state determination. The state determines whether
all state laws (including water quality standards) are satisfied. This
helps ensure that water quality, biological habitats, and beneficial
uses of receiving waters are protected. Additionally, the state must
determine if the applicant's discharge will result in additional
treatment, pollution control, or any other requirement for any other
point or nonpoint sources. EPA also needs the CWA section 401(a)(1)
certification information to ensure that all state water quality laws
are met by any permit it issues with a section 301(h) modification, and
the state accepts all the permit conditions. This information is the
means by which the state can exercise its authority to concur with or
deny a section 301(h) decision made by the EPA Regional Office.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Municipalities that currently have
section 301(h) waivers from secondary treatment, or have applied for a
renewal of a section 301(h) waiver, and the states within which these
municipalities are located.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Required to obtain or retain a
benefit.
    Estimated number of respondents: 34 (total).
    Frequency of response: From once every five years, to varies case-
by-case, depending on the category of information.
    Total estimated burden: 40,040 hours (per year). Burden is defined
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $1.1 million (per year), includes $0
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of hours in the total
estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by
OMB. This decrease is due to changes in respondent universe, program
status, information needs, and use of technology.
