This notice relies on the authority of

There is one ICR for each Collection.
The Coast Guard invites comments on

based on the Collection being necessary
for the proper performance of
Departmental functions. In particular,
the Coast Guard would appreciate
comments addressing: (1) The practical
utility of the Collection; (2) the accuracy
of the estimated burden of the
Collection; (3) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of
information subject to the Collection;
and (4) ways to minimize the burden of
the Collection on respondents,
including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
In response to your comments, we
may revise this ICR or decide not to seek
an extension of approval for the
Collection. We will consider all
comments and material received during
the comment period.

regulate. This extension would require
continued submission of data to an

extension ensures the required data is
available in a timely manner and allows
immediate accessibility to data crucial
from both an operational and ratemaking standpoint.

the rate-making and oversight functions
imposed upon the agency.
Forms: CG–4509, Application for
Registration as United States Registered

Quarterly, Semi-annually, Annually, On
occasion; frequency dictated by marine
traffic levels and association staffing.
Hour Burden Estimate: The estimated
burden increased to 1,214 hours a year.

increased traffic on the Great Lakes and
better record keeping in the past four
years. The information requested from
the respondents has not changed.

information.

ACTION:

We, the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, have received an
application from Ford Ridge Wind Farm
LLC (applicant), for an incidental take
permit (ITP) under the Endangered
Species Act, for its Ford Ridge Wind
Project (project). If approved, the ITP
would be for a 6-year period and would
authorize the incidental take of an
endangered species, the Indiana bat, and
a threatened species, the northern longeared bat. The applicant has prepared a
habitat conservation plan that describes
the actions and measures that the
applicant would implement to avoid,
minimize, and mitigate incidental take
of the Indiana bat and northern longeared bat. We request public comment
on the application, which includes the
applicant’s proposed habitat
conservation plan (HCP), and on the
Service’s preliminary determination that
this HCP qualifies as ‘‘low-effect,’’
categorically excluded under the
National Environmental Policy Act. To
make this determination, we used our
environmental action statement and
low-effect screening form, both of which
are also able for public review.
DATES: We will accept comments
received or postmarked on or before
February 24, 2022.
