(713)420-1601. 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 in the proceeding with the Commission and must mail a copy to the applicant and to every other party. 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. 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. *Comment Date:* 5 p.m. Eastern Time on July 14, 2006. Magalie R. Salas, Secretary. [FR Doc.

(636)926-3668. Docket No. CP06-407-000 is assigned to the requests to authorize facilities acquisition and operation, for approval for the provision of interstate natural gas transportation services and for the approval of abandonments. Docket No. CP06-408-000 is assigned to the part 157, subpart F blanket certificate request and Docket No. CP06-409-000 is assigned to the part 284, subpart G blanket certificate request. The Applicants state that upon implementation of the mergers, if approved under the requested authorizations, their proposal will expand access to the interstate gas transportation grid for the Applicants' customers on standardized terms and conditions, make such grid more efficient, offer better supply and pricing options, facilitate future pipeline expansions within and outside the State of Missouri, and establish a single regulatory forum at the Commission to review any expansions and new services proposed in the future and to set a single rate for service on the new system. The Applicants state that their proposed acquisition of the facilities and the integration of the Applicants' assets into a single interstate pipeline system will allow the Applicants to provide open access, non-discriminatory transportation consistent with the NGA and the Commission's regulations and policies. As an integrated interstate company, the Applicants say that the proposed Missouri Gas will be better able to serve Missouri and Illinois customers and respond to interstate demand, particularly in Illinois. In addition, the Applicants say that consolidation of the companies will eliminate inefficiencies, enabling Missouri Gas to improve service to existing and potential new customers. Specifically, the Applicants seek the Commission's authorization for:
(1)Missouri Interstate to abandon its tariff and services and to abandon its facilities by transfer to Missouri Pipeline;
(2)Missouri Pipeline to acquire and operate as part of its existing system, all of Missouri Interstate's facilities; and
(3)Missouri Pipeline to subsequently abandon by transfer, and Missouri Gas to acquire and operate as part of its existing system, all of the facilities of Missouri Pipeline, upon Missouri Pipeline's commencement of interstate service. In addition, Applicants request:
(1)Issuance of a blanket certificate of public convenience and necessity under part 284, subpart G of the Commission's regulations to Missouri Gas, authorizing it to provide open access interstate transportation services to the Applicants' existing transportation customers and to potential new customers located inside and outside the State of Missouri, and a determination that Missouri Gas's proposed initial firm and interruptible rates are in the public interest;
(2)issuance of a blanket certificate of public convenience and necessity under part 157, subpart F of the Commission's regulations to Missouri Gas authorizing certain routine construction and operation activities and abandonment; and
(3)approval of the initial rates and pro forma tariff proposed herein along with acceptance of Applicants' existing service agreements as non-conforming service agreements. The Applicants state that as a result of these transactions, all of the facilities currently owned and operated individually by Missouri Interstate and Missouri Pipeline prior to the transactions will be owned and operated by Missouri Gas. They promise that no later than 18 months after the integrated Missouri Gas commences operations pursuant to the Commission issued certificates proposed in these proceedings, Missouri Gas will file a rate case to establish just and reasonable rates under section 4 of the NGA to replace the initial rates requested for approval in these proceedings. Any person desiring to intervene or to protest this filing must file in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 and 385.214).

On March 15, 2004, the South Carolina Public Service Authority (Public Service) filed an application for a new license for the continued operation of the 134.52-megawatt Santee Cooper Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 199-205). The project is located on the Santee and Cooper Rivers in Berkeley, Calhoun, Clarendon, Orangeburg, and Sumter Counties, South Carolina. The project does not occupy any Federal lands. In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA)and the Commission's regulations, Commission staff held public scoping meetings for the Santee Cooper Hydroelectric Project on May 17, 2005, in Moncks Corner, South Carolina, and on May 18, 2005, in Manning, South Carolina. Additionally, Commission staff held an agency scoping meeting on May 19, 2005, in Moncks Corner, South Carolina. Commission staff, state, Federal, and local agencies, and the public participated in the meetings. These scoping meetings were used to define the issues and alternatives addressed in Public Service's application. Based on comments received, since the scoping meeting, Commission staff has determined that licensing the Santee Cooper Hydroelectric Project could constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. Therefore, staff intends to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement
(EIS)for the project. The staff's EIS will objectively consider both site-specific and cumulative environmental impacts of the project and reasonable alternatives, and will include economic and engineering analyses. A draft EIS will be issued and circulated for review by all interested parties. All comments filed on the draft EIS will be analyzed by the staff and considered in the final EIS. The staff's conclusions and recommendations will be available for the consideration of the Commission in reaching its final licensing decision. This notice informs all interested individuals, organizations, and agencies with environmental expertise and concerns, that:
(1)The Commission staff has decided to prepare an EIS; and
(2)the scoping conducted on the Santee Cooper Hydroelectric Project by Commission staff and comments filed with the Commission on the application will be taken into account in the EIS. Any questions regarding this notice may be directed to Monte Terhaar at

What Should I Consider When I Prepare My Comments for EPA? You may find the following suggestions helpful for preparing your comments: 1. Explain your views as clearly as possible and provide specific examples. 2. Describe any assumptions that you used. 3. Provide copies of any technical information and/or data you used that support your views. 4. If you estimate potential burden or costs, explain how you arrived at the estimate that you provide. 5. Offer alternative ways to improve the collection activity. 6. Make sure to submit your comments by the deadline identified under DATES . 7. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, be sure to identify the docket ID number assigned to this action in the subject line on the first page of your response. You may also provide the name, date, and **Federal Register** citation. What Information Collection Activity or ICR Does This Apply to? Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2003-0073 *Affected entities:* Entities potentially affected by this action are Entities potentially affected by this action are State and local agencies and members of the public. *Title:* Entities potentially affected by this action are State and local agencies and members of the public. *ICR numbers:* EPA ICR No. 1981.03, OMB Control No. 2050-0172. *ICR status:* This ICR is currently scheduled to expire on December 31, 2006. 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 in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the **Federal Register** when approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, are displayed either by publication in the **Federal Register** or by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. *Abstract:* This ICR is the renewal of the ICR developed for the final rule, *Accidental Release Prevention Requirements; Risk Management Programs Under the Clean Air Act Section 112(r)(7); Distribution of Off-Site Consequence Analysis Information.* CAA section 112(r)(7) required EPA to promulgate reasonable regulations and appropriate guidance to provide for the prevention and detection of accidental releases and for responses to such releases. The regulations include requirements for submittal of a risk management plan
(RMP)to EPA. The RMP includes information on offsite consequence analyses
(OCA)as well as other elements of the risk management program. On August 5, 1999, the President signed the Chemical Safety Information, Site Security, and Fuels Regulatory Relief Act (CSISSFRRA). The Act required the President to promulgate regulations on the distribution of OCA information (CAA section 112(r)(7)(H)(ii)). The President delegated to EPA and the Department of Justice
(DOJ)the responsibility to promulgate regulations to govern the dissemination of OCA information to the public. The final rule was published on August 4, 2000 (65 FR 48108). The regulations imposed minimal requirements on the public, state and local agencies that request OCA data from EPA. The state and local agencies who decide to obtain OCA information must send a written request on their official letterhead to EPA certifying that they are covered persons under Public Law 106-40, and that they will use the information for official use only. EPA will then provide paper copies of OCA data to those agencies as requested. The rule authorizes and encourages state and local agencies to set up reading rooms. The local reading rooms would provide read-only access to OCA information for all the sources in the LEPC's jurisdiction and for any source where the vulnerable zone extends into the LEPC's jurisdiction. Members of the public requesting to view OCA information at federal reading rooms would be required to sign in and self certify. If asking for OCA information from federal reading rooms for the facilities in the area where they live or work, they would be required to provide proof that they live or work in that area. Members of the public are required to give their names, telephone number, and the names of the facilities for which OCA information is being requested, when they contact the central office to schedule an appointment to view OCA information. 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 and 48 CFR chapter 15. 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:* For this ICR period, EPA estimates a total of 3,270 hours (annually) for local agencies requesting OCA data from EPA and providing read-only access to the public. For the state agencies, the total annual burden for requesting OCA data from EPA and providing read-only access to the public, is 3,816 hours. For the public to display photo identification, sign a sign-in sheet, certify that the individual has not received access to OCA information for more than 10 stationary sources for that calendar month, and to request information from the vulnerable zone indicator system (VZIS), EPA estimates a total of 8,754 hours annually. The total burden for the members of the public, state and local agencies is 15,840 hours and $413,380 annually (47,520 hours for three years and $1,240,140). 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. The ICR provides a detailed explanation of the Agency's estimate, which is only briefly summarized here: *Estimated total number of potential respondents:* 4,417. *Frequency of response:* Annual. *Estimated total annual burden hours:* 15,840. *Estimated total annual costs:* $413,380. The burden and cost reported here are from the current approved ICR. In the package submitted to OMB, the costs will change based on the most recent labor and wage rates information reported by the Bureau of Labor and Statistics. What Is the Next Step in the Process for This ICR? EPA will consider the comments received and amend the ICR as appropriate. The final ICR package will then be submitted to OMB for review and approval pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.12. At that time, EPA will issue another **Federal Register** notice pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to announce the submission of the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to submit additional comments to OMB. If you have any questions about this ICR or the approval process, please contact the technical person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT . Dated: July 10, 2006. Deborah Y.

Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period deadline identified. II. Background A. What Action is the Agency Taking? Under section 4 of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), EPA is reevaluating existing pesticides to ensure that they meet current scientific and regulatory standards. EPA has completed a Reregistration Eligibility Decision
(RED)for the pesticide dicamba under section 4(g)(2)(A) of FIFRA. Dicamba is an acid which forms salts in aqueous solutions. Various dicamba salts are formulated for herbicidal use and the following compounds are considered in the RED document: Dimethylamine
(DMA)salt, sodium
(NA)salt, isopropylamine
(IPA)salt, diglycolamine
(DGA)salt, and potassium
(K)salt. Dicamba is widely used in agricultural, industrial, and residential settings. Different forms of dicamba (acid and salts) have registered uses on rights-of-way areas, asparagus, barley, corn (field and pop), grasses grown in pasture and rangeland, oats, proso millet, rye, sorghum, soybeans, sugarcane, and wheat. Residential uses include broadcast and spot treatment on golf courses and lawns. The completion of the Dicamba RED does not result in any additional tolerances being reassessed; tolerances were reassessed in 2000 when a new use was granted. EPA has determined that the data base to support reregistration is substantially complete and that products containing dicamba are eligible for reregistration provided the risks are mitigated in the manner described in the RED. Upon submission of any required product-specific data under section 4(g)(2)(B) and any necessary changes to the registration and labeling (either to address concerns identified in the RED or as a result of product-specific data), EPA will make a final reregistration decision under section 4(g)(2)(C) for products containing dicamba. EPA is applying the principles of public participation to all pesticides undergoing reregistration and tolerance reassessment. The Agency's Pesticide Tolerance Reassessment and Reregistration; Public Participation Process, published in the **Federal Register** on May 14, 2004 (69 FR 26819) (FRL-7357-9), explains that in conducting these programs, EPA is tailoring its public participation process to be commensurate with the level of risk, extent of use, complexity of issues, and degree of public concern associated with each pesticide. Due to its uses, risks, and other factors, dicamba was reviewed through the modified 4-Phase process. Through this process, EPA worked extensively with stakeholders and the public to reach the regulatory decisions for dicamba. The reregistration program is being conducted under congressionally mandated time frames and EPA recognizes the need both to make timely decisions and to involve the public. The Agency is issuing the dicamba RED for public comment. This comment period is intended to provide an additional opportunity for public input and a mechanism for initiating any necessary amendments to the RED. All comments should be submitted using the methods in ADDRESSES , and must be received by EPA on or before the closing date. These comments will become part of the Agency Docket for dicamba. Comments received after the close of the comment period will be marked “late.” EPA is not required to consider these late comments. The Agency will carefully consider all comments received by the closing date and will provide a Response to Comments Memorandum in the Docket and regulations.gov. If any comment significantly affects the document, EPA also will publish an amendment to the RED in the **Federal Register** . In the absence of substantive comments requiring changes, the dicamba RED will be implemented as it is now presented. B. What is the Agency's Authority for Taking this Action? Section 4(g)(2) of FIFRA as amended directs that, after submission of all data concerning a pesticide active ingredient, the Administrator shall determine whether pesticides containing such active ingredient are eligible for reregistration, before calling in product-specific data on individual end-use products and either reregistering products or taking other “appropriate regulatory action.” List of Subjects Environmental protection, Pesticides and pests.

Box 80038, Wilmington, DE 19880-0038 and Interregional Research Project No. 4 (IR-4), 681 Highway No.1 South, North Brunswick, NJ 08902, proposes to establish a tolerance for residues of the herbicide tribenuron methyl (methyl 2-[[[[(4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)methylaminocarbonyl]amino]sulfonyl] benzoate) in or on field corn and grain sorghum (forage, grain, and stover); rice (grain and straw); soybean, seed; and sunflowers at 0.05 parts per million (ppm). Various analytical methods are available for the determination of residues of tribenuron methyl in these food and feed commodities. The analysis of sunflower samples were conducted using a high pressure liquid chromatography
(HPLC)with column switching and ultraviolet
(UV)detection. The limit of quantitation
(LOQ)for the analysis of sunflower seed was 0.05 ppm based on a 5 gram sample. Residues for rice (grain and straw), field corn, and grain sorghum (forage and stover) were determined with an analytical method utilizing sample extraction by homogenization in a potassium phosphate buffer solution. The extracts were cleaned up and concentrated by solid-phase extraction. Analysis was performed by reverse-phase HPLC and quantitatively analyzed by tandem mass spectrometric detection. The target LOQ was 0.05 ppm in these commodities. Residues in field corn and grain sorghum (grain), and soybean seed were determined by an analytical method utilizing liquid chromatography/liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/LC/MS) analysis. The analytes were resolved by HPLC chromatography and quantitatively analyzed by tandem mass spectrometric detection. The LOQ was 0.05 ppm in these commodities.

ACTION: Notice. SUMMARY: The Federal Housing Finance Board (Finance Board) is announcing the Federal Home Loan Bank
(Bank)members it has selected for the 2006-07 second quarter review cycle under the Finance Board's community support requirements regulation. This notice also prescribes the deadline by which Bank members selected for review must submit Community Support Statements to the Finance Board. DATES: Bank members selected for the review cycle under the Finance Board's community support requirements regulation must submit completed Community Support Statements to the Finance Board on or before September 1, 2006. ADDRESSES: Bank members selected for the 2006-07 second quarter review cycle under the Finance Board's community support requirements regulation must submit completed Community Support Statements to the Finance Board either by regular mail at the Federal Housing Finance Board, Office of Supervision, Community Investment and Affordable Housing, 1625 Eye Street, NW., Washington, DC 20006, or by electronic mail at *FITZGERALDE@FHFB.GOV.* FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Emma J. Fitzgerald, Program Analyst, Office of Supervision, Community Investment and Affordable Housing, by telephone at 202/408-2874, by electronic mail at *FITZGERALDE@FHFB.GOV,* or by regular mail at the Federal Housing Finance Board, 1625 Eye Street, NW., Washington, DC 20006. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Selection for Community Support Review Section 10(g)(1) of the Federal Home Loan Bank Act (Bank Act) requires the Finance Board to promulgate regulations establishing standards of community investment or service Bank members must meet in order to maintain access to long-term advances. See 12 U.S.C. 1430(g)(1). The regulations promulgated by the Finance Board must take into account factors such as the Bank member's performance under the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 (CRA), 12 U.S.C. 2901 et seq., and record of lending to first-time homebuyers. See 12 U.S.C. 1430(g)(2). Pursuant to section 10(g) of the Bank Act, the Finance Board has promulgated a community support requirements regulation that establishes standards a Bank member must meet in order to maintain access to long-term advances, and review criteria the Finance Board must apply in evaluating a member's community support performance. See 12 CFR part 944. The regulation includes standards and criteria for the two statutory factors—CRA performance and record of lending to first-time homebuyers. 12 CFR 944.3. Only members subject to the CRA must meet the CRA standard. 12 CFR 944.3(b). All members, including those not subject to CRA, must meet the first-time homebuyer standard. 12 CFR 944.3(c). Under the rule, the Finance Board selects approximately one-eighth of the members in each Bank district for community support review each calendar quarter. 12 CFR 944.2(a). The Finance Board will not review an institution's community support performance until it has been a Bank member for at least one year. Selection for review is not, nor should it be construed as, any indication of either the financial condition or the community support performance of the member. Each Bank member selected for review must complete a Community Support Statement and submit it to the Finance Board by the September 1, 2006 deadline prescribed in this notice. 12 CFR 944.2(b)(1)(ii) and (c). On or before July 28, 2006, each Bank will notify the members in its district that have been selected for the 2006-07 second quarter community support review cycle that they must complete and submit to the Finance Board by the deadline a Community Support Statement. 12 CFR 944.2(b)(2)(i). The member's Bank will provide a blank Community Support Statement Form, which also is available on the Finance Board's Web site: *http://www.fhfb.gov.* Upon request, the member's Bank also will provide assistance in completing the Community Support Statement.

General Description of Reports This information collection is mandatory: 12 U.S.C. 321, 324, and 602 (Board); 12 U.S.C. 602 (OCC); and 12 U.S.C. 1828 (FDIC). This information collection is given confidential treatment (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(8)). Abstract The FFIEC 030 contains asset and liability information for foreign branches of insured U.S. commercial banks and state-chartered savings banks and is required for regulatory and supervisory purposes. The information is used to analyze the foreign operations of U.S. banks. All foreign branches of U.S. banks regardless of charter type file this report with the appropriate Federal Reserve District Bank. The Federal Reserve collects this information on behalf of the U.S. bank's primary federal bank regulatory agency. Current Actions To reduce respondent burden, the agencies propose to eliminate five reporting items for branches with total assets in excess of $250 million, create a short form (FFIEC 030S) containing five items to be filed annually by branches with total assets of between $50 million and $250 million (in lieu of filing the entire FFIEC 030 form), and eliminate the filing requirement for branches with less than $50 million in total assets. Of the current number of 689 branch respondents, 231 branch respondents have total assets of between $50 million and $250 million and 226 respondents have less than $50 million in total assets. 1 Thus, under this proposal reporting burden would be significantly reduced or eliminated for approximately two-thirds of the respondents. 1 Respondents are permitted to report branches in a single country on a consolidated basis. Therefore, the number of branch respondents in each asset category does not equal the actual number of reports filed with the agencies. Discussion of Proposed Revisions A. Revisions to the FFIEC 030 The agencies propose to reduce reporting burden by eliminating five reporting items for branches with total assets in excess of $250 million because the aggregate amounts reported in these items have declined substantially to a nominal amount. The five items to be eliminated are: • Asset item 6.d, “Loans to foreign governments and official institutions.” Amounts would be included in current item 6.e, “Loans and lease financing receivables: To all others.” • Asset item 7, “Customers' liability to this bank on acceptances outstanding.” Amounts would be included in current item 13, “Other assets.” • Asset item 9, “Accrued interest receivable.” Amounts would be included in current item 13, “Other assets.” • Liability item 19, “Bank's liability on acceptances executed and outstanding.” Amounts would be included in current item 24, “Other liabilities.” • Liability item 20, “Accrued taxes and other expenses.” Amounts would be included in current item 24, “Other liabilities.” The revisions to the FFIEC 030 reporting form are proposed to be effective with the December 31, 2006, reporting date. B. Implementation of the FFIEC 030S The agencies propose to create an abbreviated or “short” report (FFIEC 030S) containing five items that branches with total assets between $50 million and $250 million would file on an annual basis in lieu of the FFIEC 030 form. The scope of the FFIEC 030S would be comparable to a report filed with the Federal Reserve by U.S. banking organizations for their foreign subsidiaries. 2 The items proposed for this report are considered the minimum information needed to serve as indicators of higher business volume, risk, and complexity in small-sized foreign branches. The reported information would also be used to monitor potential developments that may pose risks to the overall operations of the parent bank. The items proposed for the FFIEC 030S are: 2 Abbreviated Financial Statements of Foreign Subsidiaries of U.S. Banking Organizations (FR 2314S; OMB No. 7100-0073), filed for subsidiaries with assets between $50 million and $250 million. • Gross due from related institutions (a combination of current FFIEC 030 asset items 11 and 12). • Total assets (current FFIEC 030 asset item 14). • Gross due to related institutions (combination of current FFIEC 030 liability items 22 and 23). • Total gross notional amount of derivative contracts (combination of current FFIEC 030 derivative items 26, 27, 28, and 31). • Commercial and similar letters of credit, standby letters of credit, and foreign office guarantees (combination of current FFIEC 030 off-balance sheet items 29 and 30). The FFIEC 030S reporting form is proposed to be effective with the December 31, 2006, reporting date. C. Exempt Entities The agencies propose to exempt foreign branches with total assets below $50 million from both the FFIEC 030 and FFIEC 030S annual filing requirements. Request for Comment Comments are invited on: a. Whether the information collections are necessary for the agencies' duties and responsibilities, including whether the information has practical utility; b. The accuracy of the agencies' estimate of the burden of the information collections, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; c. Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; d. Ways to minimize the burden of the information collections on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology; and e. Estimates of capital or start up costs and costs of operation, maintenance, and purchase of services to provide the requested information. Comments submitted in response to this notice will be shared among the agencies. All comments will become a matter of public record. Written comments should address the accuracy of the burden estimates and ways to minimize burden including the use of automated collection techniques or the use of other forms of information technology as well as other relevant aspects of the information collection request.
