Tonawanda, New York; the Middlesex
Municipal Landfill in Middlesex, New
Jersey; the Seaway Industrial Park in

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
Notice amends the list of covered
facilities by correcting the location
information for Dow Chemical Company
in California, and removing the
designation of the Ashland Oil site in
Tonawanda, New York; the Middlesex
Municipal Landfill in Middlesex, New
Jersey; Seaway Industrial Park in
Tonawanda, New York; the Shpack
Landfill in Norton, Massachusetts; and
the Woburn Landfill in Woburn,
Massachusetts as AWE facilities.

(66 FR 31218); and January 17, 2001 (66

Purpose
EEOICPA establishes a program to
provide compensation to certain
employees who develop illnesses as a
result of their employment with DOE
and its predecessor Agencies, as well as
employees of certain of its contractors,
subcontractors, beryllium vendors and
AWEs. Section 7384l(4) of EEOICPA
defines an AWE as ‘‘an entity, other
than the United States, that—(A)
processed or produced, for use by the
United States, material that emitted
radiation and was used in the
production of an atomic weapon,
excluding uranium mining and milling;
and (B) is designated by the Secretary of
Energy as an [AWE] for purposes of the
compensation program.’’ Section
7384l(5) defines an AWE facility as ‘‘a
facility, owned by an [AWE], that is or
was used to process or produce, for use
by the United States, material that
emitted radiation and was used in the
production of an atomic weapon,
excluding uranium mining or milling.’’
It has recently come to the attention
of the Department that the location at
which the Dow Chemical Company in
California performed activities of an
AWE for purposes of EEOICPA was in
Pittsburg, California, not Walnut Creek,
California, as previously indicated in
the Federal Register.
In addition, the Ashland Oil site in
Tonawanda, New York; the Middlesex
Municipal Landfill in Middlesex, New
Jersey; Seaway Industrial Park in
Tonawanda, New York; the Shpack
Landfill in Norton, Massachusetts; and
the Woburn Landfill in Woburn,

Massachusetts, were designated as AWE
facilities in the Department’s previous
lists even though they did not meet the
statutory definition of AWE facilities.
Records related to these five locations
indicate that these facilities were not
owned by an AWE and do not meet the
definition of AWE facilities because, as
disposal or landfill sites, they did not
‘‘process’’ or ‘‘produce,’’ for use by the
United States, material that emitted
radiation and was used in the
production of an atomic weapon.
Therefore, the designation of these five
locations as AWE facilities was
erroneous.
This Notice formally makes the
changes to the listing of covered
facilities as indicated below:
• The site location for Dow Chemical
Company is changed from Walnut
Creek, California, to Pittsburg,
California.
• The Ashland Oil site in
Tonawanda, New York, in no longer
designated as an AWE facility.
• The Middlesex Municipal Landfill
in Middlesex, New Jersey, is no longer
designated as an AWE facility. This
action has no effect on the separate
status of this worksite as a DOE facility
in 1984 and 1986 when environmental
remediation services were conducted by
Bechtel National Inc., pursuant to a
contract with DOE.
• Seaway Industrial Park in
Tonawanda, New York, is no longer
designated as an AWE facility.
• The Shpack Landfill in Norton,
Massachusetts, is no longer designated
as an AWE facility.
• The Woburn Landfill in Woburn,
Massachusetts, is no longer designated
as an AWE facility.

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 136 / Thursday, July 16, 2015 / Notices
The information collection requests a
three-year extension of its Quarterly
Electricity Imports and Exports Report,
OMB Control Number 1905–0208. The
proposed collection is a census of
companies that (1) import or export
electricity, (2) operate electric systems
to cause the flow of electricity, or (3)
own transmission facilities that make
possible the flow of electricity across
U.S. international borders. The volume
of physical electricity imports and
exports is reported as transaction
volumes, implemented and actual
interchange, and metered flow.
Transaction volumes are reported with
their associated transaction
characteristics and payments or
receipts. The collection supports the
U.S. Department of Energy’s regulation
of cross border transmission/
distribution facilities and electricity
exports.
DATES: Comments regarding this
proposed information collection must
be received on or before August 17,
2015. If you anticipate that you will be
submitting comments, but find it
difficult to do so within the period of
time allowed by this notice, please
advise the DOE Desk Officer at OMB of
your intention to make a submission as
soon as possible. The Desk Officer may
be telephoned at 202–395–4718.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should
be sent to the DOE Desk Officer,Office
of Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Office of Management and Budget,New

contains:
(1) OMB No. 1905–0208;
(2) Information Collection Request
Title: Quarterly Electricity Imports and
Exports Report;
(3) Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved collection;
(4) Purpose: Form EIA–111 collects
U.S. electricity import and export data.
The data are used to get an accurate
measure of the flow of electricity into
and out of the United States. The import
and export data are reported by U.S.

purchasers, sellers and transmitters of
electricity, including persons authorized
by Order to export electric energy from
the United States to foreign countries,
persons authorized by Presidential
Permit to construct, operate, maintain,
or connect electric power transmission
lines that cross the U.S. international
border, and U.S. Balancing Authorities
that are directly interconnected with
foreign Balancing Authorities. Such
entities are to report monthly data on
aggregate flows of electric energy
received and delivered across the
border, the cost associated with the
transactions, metered flows over transfer
facilities and actual and implemented
interchange on a quarterly reporting
cycle. The data collected on this form
may appear in various EIA publications;
(4a) Proposed Changes to Information
Collection: The data element ‘‘Transfer
Facility’s Presidential Permit numbers’’
is changed to ‘‘Transmission Provider/
Transfer Facility(ies)’’ in the sections
‘‘Imports into the U.S. from Canada or
Mexico,’’ ‘‘Exports from the U.S. to
Canada or Mexico.’’ and ‘‘Implemented
Interchange.’’ A new section for
reporting ‘‘Metered Flow on Transfer
Facilities’’ is added to collect monthly
metered cross border flow over
Presidential Permit holders and other
transfer facilities;
(5) Annual Estimated Number of
Respondents: 176;
(6) Annual Estimated Number of
Total Responses: 704;
(7) Annual Estimated Number of
Burden Hours: 1056;
(8) Annual Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Cost Burden: EIA
estimates that there are no additional
costs to respondents associated with the
surveys other than the costs associated
with the burden hours. The information
is maintained in the normal course of
business. The cost of burden hours to
the respondents is estimated to be
$76,000 (1,056 burden hours times
$71.97 per hour). Therefore, other than
the cost of burden hours, EIA estimates
that there are no additional costs for
generating, maintaining and providing
the information.
Statutory Authority: Section 13(b) of the
Federal Energy Administration Act of 1974,
Public Law 93–275, codified at 15 U.S.C.
