requires the
Commission to conduct this collection

lands. An applicant must send FERC
Form 587 both to the Commission and

in FERC Form 587 facilitates the
reservation of U.S. lands as hydropower
sites and the withdrawal of such lands
from other uses.
Type of Respondents: Applicants
proposing hydropower projects, or
changes to existing hydropower
projects, within lands of the United
States.
Estimate of Annual Burden: The
Commission estimates 70 responses, 70
hours, and $6,090 in costs annually for
respondents. These burdens are
itemized in the following table:
