(503)833-4256 or *Carl_Fink@TransCanada.com* . The facilities associated with the BEI Lateral are described in the draft environmental impact statement
(EIS)for the North Baja Pipeline Expansion Project that was issued on September 22, 2006 for public comment. Environmental comments received on this amendment will be combined with those received on the draft EIS and will be addressed in the final EIS prepared for the North Baja Pipeline Expansion Project. The Commission staff will determine if this amendment will have an effect on the schedule for the environmental review of this project. If necessary, a revised Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review will be issued within 90 days of this Notice. 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. Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of this project should submit an original and two copies of their comments to the Secretary of the Commission. Environmental commenters will be placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list, will receive copies of the environmental documents, and will be notified of meetings associated with the Commission's environmental review process. Environmental commenters will not be required to serve copies of filed documents on all other parties. 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. *Comment Date:* February 28, 2007. Magalie R. Salas, Secretary. [FR Doc.

E7-2482 Filed 2-13-07; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 6717-01-P DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Western Area Power Administration Boulder Canyon Project AGENCY: Western Area Power Administration, DOE. ACTION: Notice of Proposed Base Charge and Rates Adjustment. SUMMARY: The Western Area Power Administration (Western) is proposing an adjustment to the Boulder Canyon Project
(BCP)electric service base charge and rates. The current base charge and rates expire September 30, 2007. The current base charge is not sufficient to pay all annual costs including operation, maintenance, replacements, and interest expense, and to repay investment obligations within the required period. The proposed base charge will provide sufficient revenue to pay all annual costs and to repay investment obligations within the allowable period. A detailed rate package that identifies the reasons for the base charge and rates adjustment will be available in March 2007. The proposed base charge and rates are scheduled to become effective on October 1, 2007, and will remain in effect through September 30, 2008. This **Federal Register** notice initiates the formal process for the proposed base charge and rates. DATES: The consultation and comment period will begin today and will end May 15, 2007. Western representatives will explain the proposed base charge and rates at a public information forum on April 11, 2007, beginning at 10:30 a.m. MST, in Phoenix, Arizona (AZ). Interested parties can provide oral and written comments at a public comment forum on May 9, 2007, beginning at 10:30 a.m. MST, at the same location. Western will accept written comments any time during the consultation and comment period. ADDRESSES: The meetings will be held at the Desert Southwest Customer Service Regional Office, located at 615 South 43rd Avenue, Phoenix, AZ. Send written comments to: J. Tyler Carlson, Regional Manager, Desert Southwest Customer Service Region, Western Area Power Administration, P.O. Box 6457, Phoenix, AZ 85005-6457, e-mail *carlson@wapa.gov.* Written comments may also be faxed to
(602)605-2490, attention: Jack Murray. Western will post information about the rate process on its Web site at *http://www.wapa.gov/dsw/pwrmkt/BCP/RateAdjust.htm.* Western will post official comments received via letter and e-mail to its Web site after the close of the comment period. Western must receive written comments by the end of the consultation and comment period to ensure they are considered in Western's decision process. As access to Western facilities is controlled, any U.S. citizen wishing to attend any meeting held at Western must present an official form of picture identification, such as a U.S. driver's license, U.S. passport, U.S. Government ID, or U.S. Military ID, at the time of the meeting.

(602)605-2442, e-mail *jmurray@wapa.gov.* SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The proposed base charge and rates for BCP electric service are designed to recover an annual revenue requirement that includes the investment repayment, interest, operation and maintenance, replacements, payment to states, visitor services, and uprating payments. The total costs are offset by the projected revenue from water sales, visitor services, water pumping energy sales, facilities use charges, regulation and spinning reserve services, miscellaneous leases, and late fees. The projected annual revenue requirement is the base charge for electric service and is divided equally between capacity dollars and energy dollars. Annual energy dollars are divided by annual energy sales, and annual capacity dollars are divided by annual capacity sales to determine the proposed energy rate and the proposed capacity rate. The Deputy Secretary of Energy approved the existing rate formula for calculating the base charge and rates in Rate Schedule BCP-F7 for BCP electric service on August 11, 2005, (Rate Order No. WAPA-120, 70 FR 50316, August 26, 2005). The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) confirmed and approved the rate formula on a final basis in Docket No. EF05-5091-000 issued June 22, 2006 (115 FERC ¶ 61,362). Rate Schedule BCP-F7 became effective on October 1, 2005, for the period ending September 30, 2010. Under Rate Schedule BCP-F7, for FY 2008, the base charge is $74,898,171, the forecasted energy rate is 9.33 mills per kilowatthour (mills/kWh), the forecasted capacity rate is $1.81 per kilowattmonth (kWmonth), and the composite rate is 18.65 mills/kWh. Under Rate Schedule BCP-F7, the proposed rates for BCP electric service will result in an overall composite rate increase of about 10 percent. The following table compares the current and proposed base charge and rates. Comparison of Current and Proposed Base Charge and Rates Current October 1, 2006 through September 30, 2007 Proposed October 1, 2007 through September 30, 2008 % Change Increase Total Composite (mills/kWh) 17.02 18.65 10 Base Charge ($) 67,509,136 74,898,171 11 Energy Rate (mills/kWh) 8.51 9.33 10 Capacity Rate ($/kWmonth) 1.63 1.81 11 The increase in the electric service base charge and rates is primarily the result of higher annual costs associated with operation and maintenance, visitor services, uprating program payments, replacements, and no increase in revenue projections for the visitor services. Legal Authority Western will hold both a public information forum and a public comment forum. After considering comments, Western will recommend the proposed base charge and rates for final approval by the Deputy Secretary of Energy. Western is establishing an electric service base charge and rates for BCP under the Department of Energy Organization Act (42 U.S.C. 7152); the Reclamation Act of 1902 (ch. 1093, 32 Stat. 388), as amended and supplemented by subsequent laws, particularly section 9(c) of the Reclamation Project Act of 1939 (43 U.S.C. 485h(c)); and other acts that specifically apply to the project involved. By Delegation Order No. 00-037.00, effective December 6, 2001, the Secretary of Energy delegated:
(1)The authority to develop power and transmission rates to Western's Administrator;
(2)the authority to confirm, approve, and place such rates into effect on an interim basis to the Deputy Secretary of Energy; and
(3)the authority to confirm, approve, and place into effect on a final basis, to remand or to disapprove such rates to the Commission. Existing Department of Energy
(DOE)procedures for public participation in power rate adjustments (10 CFR part 903) were published on September 18, 1985. Availability of Information Interested parties may review and copy all brochures, studies, comments, letters, memorandums or other documents that Western initiates or uses to develop the proposed rates. These documents are at the Desert Southwest Customer Service Regional Office, located at 615 South 43rd Avenue, Phoenix, AZ. Many of these documents and supporting information are also available on its Web site located at *http://www.wapa.gov/dsw/pwrmkt/BCP/RateAdjust.htm* . Regulatory Procedure Requirements Regulatory Flexibility Analysis The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (5 U.S.C. 601, *et seq.* ) requires Federal agencies to perform a regulatory flexibility analysis if a final rule is likely to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities, and there is a legal requirement to issue a general notice of proposed rulemaking. This action does not require a regulatory flexibility analysis since it is a rulemaking specifically involving rates or services applicable to public property. Environmental Compliance In compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
(NEPA)(42 U.S.C. 4321, *et seq.* ); the Council On Environmental Quality Regulations (40 CFR parts 1500-1508); and DOE NEPA Implementing Procedures and Guidelines (10 CFR part 1021), Western has determined that this action is categorically excluded from preparing an environmental assessment or an environmental impact statement. Determination Under Executive Order 12866 Western has an exemption from centralized regulatory review under Executive Order 12866; accordingly, no clearance of this notice by the Office of Management and Budget is required. Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act Western has determined that this rule is exempt from congressional notification requirements under 5 U.S.C. 801 because the action is a rulemaking of particular applicability relating to rates or services and involves matters of procedure.

[Docket ID No. EPA-EPA-HQ-OPA-2007-0042] *Affected entities:* Entities potentially affected by this action are Respondents including, but are not limited to, manufacturers of bioremediation agents, dispersants, surface collecting agents, surface washing agents and other chemical agents and biological additives used as countermeasures against oil spills. Affected private industries can be expected to fall within the following industrial classifications: • Manufacturers of industrial inorganic chemicals (SIC 281/NAICS 325188), • Manufacturers of industrial organic chemicals (SIC 286/NAICS 325199), and • Manufacturers of miscellaneous chemical products (SIC 289/NAICS 325998). *Title:* Renewal of Information Collection Request for the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan Regulation, Subpart J (40 CFR 300.900) *ICR numbers:* EPA ICR No. 1664.06 OMB Control No. 2050-0141. *ICR status:* This ICR is currently scheduled to expire on 6/30/2007. 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:* Section 311(d)(2)(G) of the Clean Water Act (CWA), requires a product schedule, identifying “dispersants, other chemicals, and other spill mitigating devices and substances, if any, that may be used in carrying out” the National Contingency Plan (NCP). The authority of the President to implement the CWA is currently delegated to EPA by Executive Order 12777 (56 FR 54757, October 18, 1991). The use of dispersants, other chemical agents, and biological additives to respond to oil spills in U.S. waters is governed by Subpart J of the NCP (40 CFR 300.900). The information collected is mandatory if you wish to place a product on the Schedule. Most required information needs to be submitted on paper however, once a company contacts EPA, the Product Schedule Manager can allow some data and information to be sent electronically. The Schedule is available for use by On-Scene Coordinators (OSC), Regional Response Teams, and Area Committees in determining the most appropriate products to use or prohibit in various spill scenarios. Under 40 CFR 300.910(a), RRTs and Area Committees are required to address the desirability of using the products on the Schedule in their REGIONAL CONTINGENCY PLANS
(RCPs)and AREA CONTINGENCY PLANS (ACPs), respectively. The required information is needed from the respondent so that the OSCs, RRTs, and Area Committees can make informed decisions to safely employ chemical/biological countermeasures to control oil discharges. Correct product use is critical in emergency situations. Subpart J ensures that OSCs, RRTs, and Area Committees have necessary data regarding the toxicity, effectiveness, and other characteristics of different products. To place a product on the Schedule, Subpart J requires that the manufacturer conduct specific toxicity and effectiveness tests and submit the corresponding technical product data and other required information to EPA Office of Emergency Management (OEM). EPA has established an effectiveness threshold for listing dispersants (40 CFR 300.920(a)(2)). Only those dispersants that meet or exceed the established threshold will be listed on the Schedule. At 40 CFR 300.915(d), EPA requires respondents to test bioremediation agents for effectiveness, using the testing protocol contained in Appendix C to part 300. The Bioremediation Agent Effectiveness Test is used to compare the effectiveness of different bioremediation agents. The objective of the effectiveness testing protocol is to provide empirical laboratory evidence that evaluates a bioremediation agent's ability to enhance biodegradation as compared to the natural population. Practical Utility/Users of the Data EPA places eligible oil spill mitigating agents on the Schedule if all the required data are submitted. The Schedule is available for use by OSCs, RRTs, and Area Committees in determining the most appropriate products to use in various spill scenarios. Under 40 CFR 300.910(a), RRTs and Area Committees are required to address the desirability of using the products on the Schedule in their RCPs and ACPs, respectively. The required information is needed from the respondent so that the OSCs, RRTs, and Area Committees can make informed decisions to safely employ chemical/biological countermeasures to control oil discharges. Correct product use is critical in emergency situations. Subpart J ensures that OSCs, RRTs, and Area Committees have the necessary data regarding the toxicity, effectiveness, and other characteristics of different products. At 40 CFR 300.920(c), respondents are allowed to assert that certain information in the technical product data submissions is confidential business information. EPA will handle such claims pursuant to the provisions in 40 CFR part 2, subpart B. Such information must be submitted separately from non-confidential information, clearly identified, and clearly marked “Confidential Business Information.” If the applicant fails to make such a claim at the time of submittal, EPA may make the information available to the public without further notice. *Burden Statement:* The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 57 to 122 hours per response. 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 which have subsequently changed; 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:* 14 per year. *Frequency of response:* On occasion. *Estimated total average number of responses for each respondent:* 1 response for each respondent. *Estimated total annual burden hours:* 390 hours for all 14 respondents. *Estimated total annual costs:* $100,092, this includes an estimated burden cost of $17,292 and an estimated cost of $82,800 for capital investment or maintenance and operational costs. Are There Changes in the Estimates From the Last Approval? There is no change of hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with that identified in the ICR currently approved by OMB. EPA anticipates the same number of annual burden hours or capital and O&M costs under this ICR renewal. The only modifications made to figures in this ICR supporting statement involve updates to the wage rates associated with respondent and EPA personnel activities. Labor costs are not reported in the OMB inventory. 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: February 8, 2007. Deborah Y.

Summary of the Order To Show Cause In the Order to Show Cause, the Federal Communications Commission's Enforcement Bureau, pursuant to delegated authority, commences a hearing proceeding before an administrative law judge to determine whether David L. Titus is qualified to be and remain a Commission licensee and, if not, whether his license for Amateur Radio Station KB7ILD should be revoked. Information has come to the Commission's attention that David L. Titus was convicted in Benton County, Washington, on April 16, 1993, of having violated section 9.68A.090 of the Revised Code of Washington, communicating with a minor for immoral purposes, a Class C felony. Titus was sentenced to serve 25 months in prison. In addition, David L. Titus is identified by the Seattle Police Department as a registered sex offender. David L. Titus' felony conviction for at least one sexual-related offense involving children raises material and substantial questions as to whether he possesses the requisite character qualifications to be and remain a Commission licensee. Thus, pursuant to 47 U.S.C. 312(a) and (c), the Order to Show Cause directs David L. Titus to show cause why his authorization for Amateur Radio Station KB7ILD should not be revoked, upon the following issues:
(a)To determine the effect of David L. Titus' felony conviction(s) on his qualifications to be and to remain a Commission licensee; and
(b)to determine, in light of the evidence adduced pursuant to the foregoing issue, whether David L. Titus is qualified to be and to remain a Commission licensee; and
(c)to determine, in light of the evidence adduced pursuant to the foregoing issues, whether the license of David L. Titus for Amateur Radio Station KB7ILD should be revoked. The hearing will be held at a time and place to be specified in a subsequent order. Copies of the Order to Show Cause are being sent to David L. Titus via Certified Mail, Return Receipt Requested, and by regular United States mail. To avail himself of the opportunity to be heard, David L. Titus, in person or by his attorney, is directed by the Order to Show Cause, pursuant to 47 CFR 1.91(c), to file with the Commission, by March 1, 2007, a written appearance stating that he will appear on the date fixed for hearing and present evidence on the issues specified herein.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A. Need for and Use of the Information Collection Section 4 of the Federal Home Loan Bank Act (Bank Act) establishes the eligibility requirements an institution must meet in order to become a member of a Federal Home Loan Bank (Bank). See 12 U.S.C. 1424. Part 925 of the Finance Board regulations—the membership rule—implements section 4 of the Bank Act. See 12 CFR part 925. The membership rule provides uniform requirements an applicant for Bank membership must meet and review criteria a Bank must apply to determine if an applicant satisfies the statutory and regulatory membership eligibility requirements. More specifically, the membership rule implements the statutory eligibility requirements and provides guidance to an applicant on how it may satisfy such requirements. The rule authorizes a Bank to approve or deny each membership application subject to the statutory and regulatory requirements and permits an applicant to appeal to the Finance Board a Bank's decision to deny certification as a Bank member. The rule also imposes a continuing obligation on a current Bank member to provide information necessary to determine if it remains in compliance with applicable statutory and regulatory eligibility requirements. The information collection is contained in sections 925.2 through 925.31 of the membership rule, 12 CFR 925.2-925.31, and chapter 2 of the Data Reporting Manual, which contains instructions addressing data definitions as well as requirements concerning data elements, reporting format, reporting method (e.g., electronic or paper), record retention, timeliness, reporting frequency, and certification. 1 This information collection is necessary to enable a Bank to determine if a respondent satisfies the statutory and regulatory requirements to be certified initially and maintain its status as a member eligible to obtain Bank advances. The Finance Board requires and uses the information collection to determine whether to uphold or overrule a Bank's decision to deny member certification to an applicant. 1 The Data Reporting Manual is available electronically on the Finance Board Web site: *http://www.fhfb.gov/Default.aspx?Page=101* . The OMB control number for the information collection is 3069-0004, which is due to expire on May 31, 2007. The likely respondents are institutions that want to be certified as or are members of a Bank. B. Burden Estimate The Finance Board estimates the total annual average number of applicants at 300, with 1 response per applicant. The estimate for the average hours per application is 21.5 hours. The estimate for the annual hour burden for applicants is 6,450 hours (300 applicants × 1 response per applicant × 21.5 hours per response). The Finance Board estimates the total annual average number of maintenance respondents, i.e., current Bank members, at 8,100, with 1 response per member. The estimate for the average hours per maintenance response is 0.6 hours. The estimate for the annual hour burden for Bank members is 4,860 hours (8,100 members × 1 response per member × 0.6 hours per response). The estimate for the total annual hour burden for all respondents is 11,310 hours. C. Comment Request The Finance Board requests written comments on the following:
(1)Whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of Finance Board functions, including whether the information has practical utility;
(2)the accuracy of the Finance Board's estimates of the burdens of the collection of information;

Notice is hereby given of the final approval of proposed information collection by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board) under OMB delegated authority, as per 5 CFR 1320.16 (OMB Regulations on Controlling Paperwork Burdens on the Public). Board-approved collections of information are incorporated into the official OMB inventory of currently approved collections of information. Copies of the Paperwork Reduction Act Submission, supporting statements and approved collection of information instrument(s) are placed into OMB's public docket files. The Federal Reserve may not conduct or sponsor, and the respondent is not required to respond to, an information collection that has been extended, revised, or implemented on or after October 1, 1995, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Federal Reserve Board Clearance Officer -- Michelle Shore -- Division of Research and Statistics, Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Washington, DC 20551 (202-452-3829). OMB Desk Officer -- Mark Menchik -- Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget, New Executive Office Building, Room 10235, Washington, DC 20503, or e-mail to mmenchik@omb.eop.gov. Final approval under OMB delegated authority of the extension for three years, without revision, of the following report: *Report title:* Written Security Program for State Member Banks *Agency form number:* FR 4004 *OMB Control number:* 7100-0112 *Frequency:* On occasion *Reporters:* State member banks *Annual reporting hours:* 35 hours *Estimated average hours per response:* 0.5 hours *Number of respondents:* 70 *General description of report:* This recordkeeping requirement is mandatory pursuant to section 3 of the Bank Protection Act [12 U.S.C. § 1882(a)] and Regulation H [12 C.F.R. § 208.61]. Because written security programs are maintained at state member banks, no issue of confidentiality under the Freedom of Information Act normally arises. However, copies of such documents included in examination work papers would, in such form, be confidential pursuant to exemption 8 of the Freedom of Information Act [5 U.S.C. § 552(b)(8)]. *Abstract:* Each state member bank must develop and implement a written security program and maintain it in the bank's records. This program should include a requirement to install security devices and should establish procedures that satisfy minimum standards in the regulation, with the security officer determining the need for additional security devices and procedures based on the location of the banking office. There is no formal reporting form and the information is not submitted to the Federal Reserve. *Current Actions:* On December 4, 2006, the Federal Reserve published a notice in the Federal Register (71 FR 70392) requesting public comment for 60 days on the extension, without revision, of the Written Security Program for State Member Banks. The comment period for this notice expired on February 2, 2007. The Federal Reserve did not receive any comments. Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, February 8, 2007. Jennifer J.

(AoA)is announcing that the proposed collection of information listed below has been submitted to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB)for review and clearance under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. DATES: Submit written comments on the collection of information by March 16, 2007. ADDRESSES: Submit written comments on the collection of information by fax 202.395.6974 or by mail to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, OMB, New Executive Office Bldg., 725 17th St. NW., rm. 10235, Washington, DC 20503, *Attn:* Carolyn Lovett, Desk Officer for AoA. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lori Stalbaum at 202-357-3452 or *e-mail* : *lori.stalbaum@aoa.hhs.gov* SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, AoA has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance. The Alzheimer's Disease Demonstration Grants to States (ADDGS) Program is authorized through Sections 398, 399 and 399A of the Public Health Service
(PHS)Act, as amended by Public Law 101-557 Home Health Care and Alzheimer's Disease Amendments of 1990. The ADDGS program funded through AoA helps states extend family support services provided by subgrantees to underserved populations, including those in rural communities. The PHS Act requires AoA to “provide for an evaluation of each demonstration project for which a grant is made.” The PHS Act further states that “not later than 6 months after the completion of such evaluations, submit a report to the Congress describing the findings made as a result of the evaluations.” In compliance with the PHS Act, AoA developed a new State data collection protocol that will require future ADDGS state grantees (those funded starting in FY 2007) to transmit annual data information to AoA reported to the states by the project partners. Many of the elements for the ADDGS Data Program Report are the same as those collected for Older Americans Act Title III and Title VII programs administered by AoA. To ensure inclusion of essential information the ADDGS Project Officer first contacted all current ADDGS grantees to find out what type of information they are already collecting. Then, the ADDGS Project Officer solicited information on key data elements from experts familiar with the previous ADDGS Program evaluation. Following this input, modifications were made to the data collection tool and input was solicited from all ADDGS state Project Directors and their project partners. Twenty-three
(23)of thirty-eight
(38)states, approximately 60% responded to the request for feedback. Again, modifications were made to fine tune the data collection tool into a format that would minimize burden on state grantees. Finally, ten
(10)ADDGS Project Directors participated in a telephone focus group. The ten Project Directors were selected based on the detail of their responses to the original request for feedback. The result of this input is the proposed data collection tool and accompanying definition of terms. AoA is aware that different states have different capabilities in terms of data collection. Thus, it is understood that following the approval of the proposed ADDGS data collection tool, AoA will need to work with ADDGS grantees to ensure easy access to a reporting system as well as offer regular training to state grantees to ensure minimal burden. *AoA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows* : 950 hours.

Proposed Project Information Collection of the Resources and Services Database of the National Prevention Information Network-Extension—National Center for HIV, STD, & TB Prevention (NCHSTP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description The National Center for HIV, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHSTP) proposes to continue data collection for the Resources and Services Database on CDC National Prevention Information Network. The CDC, NCHSTP program has the primary responsibility within the CDC and the U.S. Public Health Service for the prevention and control of HIV infection, sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), tuberculosis (TB), and related infections, as well as for community-based HIV prevention activities, syphilis and TB elimination programs. To support NCHSTP's mission and to link Americans to prevention, education, and care services, the CDC National Prevention Information Network
(NPIN)serves as the U.S. reference, referral, and distribution service for information on HIV/AIDS, STDs, and TB. NPIN is a critical member of the network of government agencies, community organizations, businesses, health professionals, educators, and human services providers that educate the American public about the grave threat to public health posed by HIV/AIDS, STDs, and TB, and provides services for persons infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Established in 1988, the NPIN Resources and Services Database contains entries on approximately 15,000 organizations and is the most comprehensive listing of HIV/AIDS, STD and TB resources and services available throughout the country. This database describes national, state and local organizations that provide services related to HIV/AIDS, STDs, and TB, services such as; counseling and testing, prevention, education and support. The NPIN reference staff relies on the Resources and Services Database to respond to thousands of requests each year for information or referral from community based organizations, state and local health departments, and health professionals working in HIV/AIDS, STD and TB prevention. The CDC-INFO (formerly the CDC National AIDS Hotline) staff also uses the NPIN Resources and Services Database to refer up to 500,000 callers each year to local programs for information, services, and treatment. The American public can also access the NPIN Resources and Services database through the NPIN Web site. More than 24 million hits and 2 million visits by the public to the website are recorded annually. A representative from each new organization identified will be administered the resource organization questionnaire via the telephone. Representatives may include registered nurses, social and community service managers, health educators, or social and human service assistants. As part of the update and verification process for organizations currently included in the Resources and Services Database, about 30 percent of the organization's representatives will receive a copy of their current database entry by electronic mail, including an introductory message and a list of instructions. The remaining 70 percent will receive a telephone call to review their database record. This request is for a 3-year renewal of clearance. There are no costs to respondents other than their time. The total estimated annual burden hours are 3,007.

ACTION: Notice. SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration
(FDA)is announcing that a proposed collection of information has been submitted to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB)for review and clearance under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. DATES: Fax written comments on the collection of information by March 16, 2007. ADDRESSES: To ensure that comments on the information collection are received, OMB recommends that written comments be faxed to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, OMB, Attn: FDA Desk Officer, FAX: 202-395-6974. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Denver Presley, Jr., Office of the Chief Information Officer (HFA-250), Food and Drug Administration, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 20857, 301-827-1472. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance: Agreement for Shipment of Devices for Sterilization—21 CFR 801.150(e) (OMB Control Number 0910-0131)—Extension Under sections 501(c) and 502(a) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the act) (21 U.S.C. 351(c) and 352(a)), nonsterile devices that are labeled as sterile but are in interstate transit to a facility to be sterilized are adulterated and misbranded. FDA regulations in § 801.150(e) (21 CFR 801.150(e)) establish a control mechanism by which firms may manufacture and label medical devices as sterile at one establishment and ship the devices in interstate commerce for sterilization at another establishment; a practice that facilitates the processing of devices and is economically necessary for some firms. Under § 801.150(e), manufacturers and sterilizers may sign an agreement containing the following:
(1)Instructions for maintaining accountability of the number of units in each shipment,
(2)acknowledgment that the devices that are nonsterile are being shipped for further processing, and
(3)specifications for sterilization processing. This agreement allows the manufacturer to ship misbranded products to be sterilized without initiating regulatory action and provides FDA with a means to protect consumers from use of nonsterile products. During routine plant inspections, FDA normally reviews agreements that must be kept for 2 years after final shipment or delivery of devices. In the **Federal Register** of November 15, 2006 (71 FR 66543), FDA published a 60-day notice soliciting comments on the proposed collection of information. In response to that notice, no comments were received. The respondents to this collection of information are device manufacturers and contact sterilizers. FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: **Table 1.—Estimated Annual Reporting Burden** 1 21 CFR Section No. of Respondents Annual Frequency per Response Total Annual Responses Hours per Response Total Hours 801.150(e) 90 20 1,800 4 7,200 1 There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information. **Table 2.—Estimated Annual Recordkeeping Burden** 1 21 CFR Section No. of Recordkeepers Annual Frequency of Recordkeeping Total Annual Records Hours per Record Total Hours 801.150(a)(2) 90 20 1,800 0.5 900 1 There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information. FDA's estimate of the reporting burden is based on actual data obtained from industry over the past several years where there are approximately 90 firms subject to this requirement. It is estimated that each of these firms on the average prepares 20 written agreements per year. The recordkeeping requirements of § 801.150(a)(2) consist of making copies and maintaining the actual reporting requests which are required under the reporting section of this collection.

ACTION: Notice. SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration
(FDA)is announcing an opportunity for public comment on the proposed collection of certain information by the agency. Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (the PRA), Federal agencies are required to publish notice in the **Federal Register** concerning each proposed collection of information including each proposed extension for an existing collection of information and to allow 60 days for public commein response to the notice. This notice solicits comments on administrative procedures for the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988
(CLIA)categorization. DATES: Submit written or electronic comments on the collection of information by April 16, 2007. ADDRESSES: Submit electronic comments on the collection of information to: *http://www.fda.gov/dockets/ecomments* . Submit written comments on the collection of information to the Division of Dockets Management (HFA-305), Food and Drug Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, rm. 1061, Rockville, MD 20852. All comments should be identified with the docket number found in brackets in the heading of this document. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Denver Presley, Jr., Office of the Chief Information Officer (HFA-250), Food and Drug Administration, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 20857,301-827-1472. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal agencies must obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB)for each collection of information they conduct or sponsor. “Collection of information” is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) and includes agency requests or requirements that members of the public submit reports, keep records, or provide information to a third party. Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the **Federal Register** concerning each proposed collection of information before submitting the collection to OMB for approval. To comply with this requirement, FDA is publishing notice of the proposed collection of information set forth in this document. With respect to the following collection of information, FDA invites comments on these topics:
(1)Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of FDA's functions, including whether the information will have practical utility;
(2)the accuracy of FDA's estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used;
(3)ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and
(4)ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques, when appropriate, and other forms of information technology. Administrative Procedures for CLIA Categorization (42 CFR 493.17) A draft guidance document entitled “Guidance for Administrative Procedures for CLIA Categorization” was released for comment on August 14, 2000. The document describes procedures FDA will use to assign the complexity category to a device. Typically, FDA assigns complexity categorizations to devices at the time of clearance or approval of the device. In this way, no additional burden is incurred by the manufacturer since the labeling (including operating instructions) is included in the 510(k) or PMA. In some cases, however, a manufacturer may request CLIA categorization even if FDA is not simultaneously reviewing a 510(k) or PMA. One example is when a manufacturer requests that FDA assign CLIA categorization to a previously cleared device that has changed names since the original CLIA categorization. Another example is when a device is exempt from premarket review. In such cases, the guidance recommends that manufacturers provide FDA with a copy of the package insert for the device and a cover letter indicating why the manufacturer is requesting a categorization (e.g. name change, exempt from 510(k) review). The draft guidance recommends that in the correspondence to FDA the manufacturer should identify the product code and classification as well as reference to the original 510(k) when this is available. A previous 60-day notice that published August 14, 2000 (65 FR 49582) announced the availability of a draft guidance and did not include a Paperwork Analysis Section. This 60-day notice for public comment supersedes that notice and is correcting that error. FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: **Table 1.—Estimated Annual Reporting Burden** 1 CFR Section No. of Respondents Annual Frequency per Response Total Annual Responses Hours per Responses Total Hours Total Operating & Maintenance Costs 42 CFR 493.17 60 15 900 1 hr 900 hr $45,000 Total 60 15 900 1 hr 900 hr $45,000 1 There are no capital costs associated with this collection of information. The number of respondents is approximately 60. On average, each respondent will request categorizations (independent of a 510(k) or PMA) 15 times per year. The cost, not including personnel, is estimated at $50. This includes the cost of copying and mailing copies of package inserts and a cover letter, which includes a statement of the reason for the request and reference to the original 510(k) numbers, including regulation numbers and product codes.

CVM issues a slaughter authorization letter to investigational new animal drug
(INAD)sponsors that sets the terms under which investigational animals may be slaughtered (21 CFR 511.1(b)(5)). Also in this letter, CVM requests that sponsors submit a notice of final disposition of investigational animals not intended for immediate slaughter (NFDA). NFDAs have historically been submitted to CVM on paper. CVM's guidance on “How to Use E-mail to Submit a Notice of Final Disposition of Animals Not Intended for Immediate Slaughter” provides sponsors with the option to submit an NFDA as an e-mail attachment to CVM via the Internet.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance: Export of Medical Devices-Foreign Letters of Approval (OMB Control Number 0910-0264)—Extension Section 801(e)(2) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the act) (21 U.S.C. 381(e)(2)) provides for the exportation of an unapproved device under certain circumstances if the exportation is not contrary to the public health and safety and it has the approval of the foreign country to which it is intended for export. Requesters communicate (either directly or through a business associate in the foreign country) with a representative of the foreign government to which they seek exportation, and written authorization must be obtained from the appropriate office within the foreign government approving the importation of the medical device. An alternative to obtaining written authorization from the foreign government is to accept a notarized certification from a responsible company official in the United States that the product is not in conflict with the foreign country's laws. This certification must include a statement acknowledging that the responsible company official making the certification is subject to the provisions of 18 U.S.C. 1001. This statutory provision makes it a criminal offense to knowingly and willingly make a false or fraudulent statement, or make or use a false document, in any manner within the jurisdiction of a department or agency of the United States. FDA uses the written authorization from the foreign country or the certification from a responsible company official in the United States to determine whether the foreign country has any objection to the importation of the device into their country. In the **Federal Register** of September 22, 2006 (71 FR 55487), FDA published a 60-day notice soliciting public comments on the proposed information collection provisions for this requirement. In response to this notice, no comments were received. The agency is also correcting an error. The operating and maintenance cost, which was inadvertently omitted in the burden table for the 60-day notice, has been added as a column to the burden table for this notice. The respondents to this collection of information are companies that seek to export medical devices. FDA estimates the reporting burden of this collection of information as follows: ** Table 1.—Estimated Annual Reporting Burden 1 ** 21 CFR Section No. of Respondents Annual Frequency Per Response Total Annual Responses Hours per Response Total Hours Total Operating & Maintenance Costs 801(e)2 25 1 25 2.5 62.5 $6,250 1 There are no capital costs associated with this collection of information. These estimates are based on the experience of FDA's medical device program personnel. There are no capital costs associated with this collection of information. In addition, the respondent's costs of submission of a request to the foreign country for approval to import into that country, and subsequent submission of such approval to FDA, vary and are considered operating and maintenance costs. On average, it appears that it can cost a requester approximately $125 per page of translation. From review of our records, it appears that foreign approval letters average two pages. Therefore, the “other” estimated cost to requestors for processing a foreign approval letter is approximately $6,250 (25 submissions per year x 2 pages = 50 pages x $125 per page = $6,250).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance: Substantial Evidence of Effectiveness of New Animal Drugs—21 CFR 514.4(a) (OMB Control Number 0910-0356)—Extension Section 512(d)(1)(E) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the act) (21 U.S.C. 360(d)(1)(E)), requires FDA to issue an order refusing to approve a new animal drug application (NADA), if there is a lack of substantial evidence that a new animal drug will have the effect it is purported or represented to have under the conditions of use prescribed in the proposed labeling. Therefore, substantial evidence must be submitted to us as part of the NADA to establish effectiveness of a drug. Section 21 CFR 514.4(a) specifies requirements for submitting adequate and well-controlled studies to provide substantial evidence of effectiveness for a new animal drug. This information collection requirement provides for submissions of substantial evidence of effectiveness information via electronic submissions to the Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM). CVM is continuously seeking ways through advances in information technology to reduce the burden on the government and sponsors. The Center continues to look at what information can be submitted electronically and will permit electronic submission of data to NADA files as technology and resources permit. In the **Federal Register** of November 2, 2006 (71 FR 64535), FDA published a 60-day notice in the **Federal Register** soliciting public comment on the proposed collection of information collection requirements.

The prospective exclusive license may be granted unless, within 60 days from the date of this published Notice, NIH receives written evidence and argument that establishes that the grant of the license would not be consistent with the requirements of 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR 404.7. Cyanovirin-N (CV-N) is a novel, naturally occurring anti-HIV protein that was originally isolated from *Nastoc ellipipsosporum,* a blue-green algae. Cyanovirin is a protein with potent neutralizing activity against HIV1 and 2 by blocking the fusion reaction between HIV and CD4 target cells. Cyanorvirin is in the pre-IND development phase with several animal toxicology and irritation studies completed; initial chemical purification processes developed; and no human data to date. Dr. Boyd and his colleagues have demonstrated that a simple aqueous gel formulation of CV-N completely protected macaques against intravaginally or intarectally transmitted SHIV 89-9P (a chimeric simian/human immunodeficiency virus that causes “AIDS” in simians). Also importantly, there was no indication of any toxicity or other adverse effects of the CV-N to the macaques in these preclinical microbicide evaluation studies. CV-N has the potential to become a microbicide useful in preventing sexual transmission of HIV. An effective anti-HIV microbicide could slow down the spread of the virus in the population, especially in the developing world, before an effective vaccine is available. The field of use may be limited to the topical use of commensal bacteria that express cyanovirin-N. Properly filed competing applications for a license filed in response to this notice will be treated as objections to the contemplated license. Comments and objections submitted in response to this notice will not be made available for public inspection, and, to the extent permitted by law, will not be released under the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. 552.

Integrase Inhibitors for the Treatment of Retroviral Infection Including Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 *Description of Technology:* Available for licensing and commercial development are stilbenedisulfonic acid derivatives for treatment of human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) and other retroviral infections. Current HIV-1 therapeutic treatments target the viral protease and reverse transcriptase enzymes, which are essential for retroviral infection. However, these drugs often have limitations due to drug resistant variants, which render drugs ineffective. Additionally, such drugs are often toxic when administered in combination therapies. Thus, efficacious inhibitors of retroviral infection that are devoid of toxicity are presently needed. The subject invention describes stilbenedisulfonic acid derivatives, which target the integrase enzyme of retroviruses. Similar to protease and reverse transcriptase activity, integrase function is essential for retroviral infection. Integrase catalyzes integration of reverse transcribed viral DNA into a host cell's genome. For this reason, integrase is considered a rational therapeutic target for HIV-1 infection. Further, integrase is a favorable target because the enzyme has no human cellular counterpart, which could interact with a potential integrase inhibitor and cause harmful side effects. Recent clinical data with an integrase inhibitor from Merck shows impressive clinical activity. The Merck compound is different from the current invention and is projected for FDA approval mid 2007. Thus, the subject invention is valuable for safe and effective treatment of HIV-1 and other retroviral infections. *Application:* Treatment of HIV infection. *Development Status:* The technology is ready for use in drug discovery and development. *Inventors:* Yves Pommier (NCI), Elena Semenova (NCI), Christophe Marchand (NCI). *Patent Status:* U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/849,718 filed 04 Oct 2006 (HHS Reference No. E-264-2006/0-US-01). *Licensing Status:* Available for exclusive or non-exclusive licensing. *Licensing Contact:* Sally Hu, Ph.D.; 301/435-5606; *HuS@mail.nih.gov* . Broadly Cross-Reactive Neutralizing Antibodies Against Human Immunodeficiency Virus Selected by ENV-CD4-CO-Receptor Complexes *Description of Technology:* This invention provides a novel anti-HIV human monoclonal antibody named X5. This antibody demonstrates promise over conventional anti-HIV antibodies because the X5 antibody exhibits a unique binding activity compared to its counterparts. It has been established that the initial stage of HIV-1 entry into cells is mediated by a complex between the viral envelope glycoprotein
(Env)such as gp120-gp41, a receptor CD4 and a co-receptor CCR5. The X5 antibody binds to an epitope on gp120 that is induced by interaction between gp120 and the receptor CD4 and enhanced by the co-receptor CCR5. The X5 antibody also shows strong activity at very low levels (in the range from 0.0001-0.1 Mg/ml concentration is dependent on the isolate). Because it is a human antibody, it can be administered directly into patients so that it is an ideal candidate for clinical trials. It also can be easily produced because it was obtained by screening of phage display libraries and its sequence is known. Finally, since it has neutralized all virus envelope glycoproteins, including those from primary isolates of different clades, the epitope is highly conserved and resistance is unlikely to develop. Therefore, this antibody and/or its derivatives including fusion proteins with CD4 are good candidates for clinical development.

Conditional Expression of the Transcription Factor ARNT in a Mouse Model *Description of Technology:* The aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator
(Arnt)protein is a transcription factor that plays an important role in mammalian development and physiological homeostasis. A member of the PAS domain/bHLH family of transcription factors, it is an obligate dimerization partner with other members of this family, such as the aryl hydrocarbon receptor
(AHR)and hypoxia-inducible factor 1alpha (HIF1alpha). It was shown to be a critical factor in control of gene expression in a number of tissues including ovary, vascular endothelium, keratinocytes, and T-cells. Available for licensing is a mouse line homozygous for floxed alleles of the *Arnt* gene. This mouse line can be used to disrupt the Arnt gene in different tissues by breeding the *Arnt* -floxed mice with transgenic mice in which the Cre recombinase is under the control of tissue-specific promoters. These mice can be used as a research tool for drug development where PAS/bHLH transcription factors are targeted. *Applications:* Tool for drug studies targeting PAS/bHLH transcription factors; Tool to probe the role of the Arnt protein in a tissue-specific manner. *Inventors:* Frank J.
