BILLING CODE 6450-01-P DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Federal Energy Regulatory Commission [Docket No. CP04-394-000] Dominion Transmission, Inc.; Notice of Application August 17, 2004. Take notice that on August 10, 2004, Dominion Transmission, Inc. (DTI), 120 Tredegar Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219, filed in Docket No. CP04-394-000 an application pursuant to section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act

(NGA)for permission and approval to abandon a storage/injection well in the Bridgeport Storage Complex located in Harrison County, West Virginia, all as more fully set forth in the application.

(804)819-2134. Specifically, DTI proposes to abandon Well No. 5111 because in February 2002, DTI states that it determined to stop using Well No. 5111 for storage injection/withdrawal purposes because of economic development of the properties in the immediate vicinity of the well. To that end, DTI states that it placed a plug in the well at the time; however, DTI further states that it has determined that the plug was inadvertently set below the perforations and the well was unintentionally shut in. Consequently, DTI avers that Well No. 5111 cannot be restored to use as a storage injection/withdrawal well. There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or before the comment date stated below file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, a motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must submit 14 copies of filings made with the Commission and must mail a copy to the applicant and to every other party in the proceeding. Only parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders in the proceeding. However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project. The Commission will consider these comments in determining the appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly involved in the protest. However, the non-party commenters will not receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or issued by the Commission (except for the mailing of environmental documents issued by the Commission) and will not have the right to seek court review of the Commission's final order. Comments, protests and interventions may be filed electronically via the Internet in lieu of paper. *See* 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web site under the “e-filing” link. The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings. If the Commission decides to set the application for a formal hearing before an Administrative Law Judge, the Commission will issue another notice describing that process. At the end of the Commission's review process, a final Commission order approving or denying a certificate will be issued. *Comment Date:* September 7, 2004. Linda Mitry, Acting Secretary. [FR Doc.

EPA's policy is that public comments, whether submitted electronically or in paper, will be made available for public viewing in EDOCKET as EPA receives them and without change, unless the comment contains copyrighted material, confidential business information (CBI), or other information whose public disclosure is restricted by statute. When EPA identifies a comment containing copyrighted material, EPA will provide a reference to that material in the version of the comment that is placed in EDOCKET. The entire printed comment, including the copyrighted material, will be available in the public docket. Although identified as an item in the official docket, information claimed as CBI, or whose disclosure is otherwise restricted by statute, is not included in the official public docket, and will not be available for public viewing in EDOCKET. For further information about the electronic docket, see EPA's **Federal Register** notice describing the electronic docket at 67 *FR* 38102 (May 31, 2002), or go to *http://www.epa.gov./edocket* . *Affected entities:* Entities potentially affected by this action are those which produce or import gasoline containing ethanol, or who wish to obtain a testing exemption. *Title: Regulation of Fuels and Fuel Additives; Gasoline Volatility; Reporting Requirements for Parties Which Produce or Import Gasoline Containing Ethanol, and Reporting Requirements for Parties Seeking a Testing Exemption* (40 CFR 80.27), EPA ICR Number 1367.07. *OMB Control Number:* 2060-0178, expiring 12-31-04. *Abstract:* Gasoline volatility, as measured by Reid Vapor Pressure

(RVP)in pounds per square inch (psi), is controlled in the spring and summer in order to minimize evaporative hydrocarbon emissions from motor vehicles. RVP is subject to a Federal standard of 7.8 psi or 9.0 psi, depending on location. The addition of ethanol to gasoline increases the RVP by about 1 psi. Gasoline that contains at least 9 volume percent ethanol is subject to a standard that is 1.0 psi greater. As an aid to industry compliance and EPA enforcement, the product transfer document, which is prepared by the producer or importer and which accompanies a shipment of gasoline containing ethanol, is required by regulation to contain a legible and conspicuous statement that the gasoline contains ethanol and the percentage concentration of ethanol. This is intended to deter the mixing within the distribution system, particularly in retail storage tanks, of gasoline which contains ethanol with gasoline which does not contain ethanol. Such mixing would likely result in a gasoline with an ethanol concentration of less than 9 volume percent but with an RVP above the standard. Also, a party wishing a testing exemption for research on gasoline that is not in compliance with the applicable volatility standard, must submit certain information to EPA. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9. *The EPA would like to solicit comments to:*

(i)Evaluate 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)Evaluate 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)Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and

(iv)Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including through 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. *Burden Statement:* EPA estimates that there at 4,600,000 shipments annually of gasoline containing ethanol. Thus the required statement must be placed on 4,600,000 product transfer documents annually. Such documents are generated by the producer or importer as a customary business practice, so the burden is limited to the placement of the statement, which is generally computer-generated or hand-stamped. EPA estimates an average burden of 5 seconds per document, for a total annual burden for 4,600,000 documents of 6,389 hours. At an estimated industry labor cost of $65 per hour, EPA estimates the labor cost burden at $415,285 for about 1,500 parties that produce or import gasoline containing ethanol. Thus the cost per party is about $277 annually. Annualized start-up costs are estimated at $3,250, based on 50 new producers or importers of gasoline with ethanol each year, and a burden of one hour each to implement the requirement. There are no annualized capital costs and no operation and maintenance costs because the product transfer documents are in use for other reasons, and there are no recordkeeping requirements. There are no purchase-of-services costs. It is estimated that EPA will receive 2 requests annually for testing exemptions, at 4 hours burden and $260 labor cost per request, for a total of $520. An operating and maintenance cost for postage and copying of $10 per request is estimated, for a total of $20. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. Dated: August 18, 2004. Robert Brenner, Acting Assistant Administrator, Office of Air and Radiation. [FR Doc. 04-19440 Filed 8-24-04; 8:45 am]
