NCPC Submission Guidelines Federal and non-Federal agency applicants whose development proposals are subject to statutorily-mandated Commission plan and project review must submit their proposals to the Commission following a process laid out in the Submission Guidelines. The Submission Guidelines describe the content of submissions, the submission stages, and the coordination and review process governing submissions. The proposed Submission Guidelines accomplish three primary objectives:
(1)Create clear, accessible, and efficient guidelines that are responsive to applicant needs;
(2)Align NCPC's review stages and National Environmental Policy Act requirements with those of applicant agencies to save time and resources in the planning process; and
(3)Allow staff to exempt from Commission review certain minor projects based on specific criteria where there is no federal interest. Authority: 40 U.S.C. 8721(e)(2) and 8722(a). Dated: May 23, 2017. Anne R. Schuyler, General Counsel. [FR Doc. 2017-10937 Filed 5-25-17; 8:45 am]
