Rule 2010 of the Federal Energy

Regulatory Commission’s (Commission)

Rules of Practice and Procedure

provides that, to eliminate unnecessary

expense or improve administrative

efficiency, the Secretary may establish a

restricted service list for a particular

phase or issue in a proceeding.1 The

restricted service list should contain the

names of persons on the service list

who, in the judgment of the decisional

authority establishing the list, are active

participants with respect to the phase or

issue in the proceeding for which the

list is established.

The Commission staff is consulting

with the Georgia State Historic

Preservation Officer (Georgia SHPO),

and the South Carolina State Historic

Preservation Officer (South Carolina

SHPO), pursuant to the Council’s

regulations, 36 CFR part 800,

implementing section 106 of the

National Historic Preservation Act, as

amended, (16 U.S.C. 470 f), to prepare

and execute a programmatic agreement

for managing properties included in, or

eligible for inclusion in, the National

to comment.

The programmatic agreement, when

executed by the Commission, Georgia

SHPO, and the South Carolina SHPO

would satisfy the Commission’s section

106 responsibilities for all individual

undertakings carried out in accordance

with the license until the license expires

or is terminated (36 CFR 800.13[e]). The

Commission’s responsibilities pursuant

to section 106 for the Augusta Canal

Project would be fulfilled through the

programmatic agreement, which the

Commission proposes to draft in

consultation with certain parties listed

below. The executed programmatic

agreement would be incorporated into

any Order issuing a license.

The city of Augusta, as licensee for

Project No. 11810 is invited to

participate in consultations to develop

the programmatic agreement.

For purposes of commenting on the

programmatic agreement, we propose to
