SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Titles: FERC–500 (Application for
License/Relicense for Water Projects
with More than 10 Megawatt (MW)
Capacity) and FERC–505 (Application
for Small Hydropower Projects and
Conduit Facilities including License/
Relicense, Exemption, and Qualifying
Conduit Facility Determination).
OMB Control Nos.: 1902–0058 (FERC–
500) and 1902–0115 (FERC–505).
Type of Request: Extension of

Abstract: Part I of the Federal Power
Act (FPA) 1 authorizes the Commission
to grant hydropower licenses and
exemptions to citizens of the United
States, or to any corporation organized
under the laws of United States or any
State thereof, or to any State or
municipality. Holders of such licenses
and exemptions construct, operate, and
maintain dams, water conduits,
reservoirs, power houses, transmission
lines, or other project works necessary
or convenient for the development and

improvement of navigation and for the
development, transmission, and
utilization of power across, along, from,
or in any of the streams or other bodies
of water over which Congress has
jurisdiction. This jurisdiction stems
from Congressional authority to regulate
commerce with foreign nations and
among the several States, or upon any
part of the public lands and reservations
of the United States.
FERC–500 and FERC–505 comprise
applications and other information
collection activities implemented under
numerous regulations. Some of the
regulations are relevant to both FERC–
500 and FERC–505, and others are
relevant only to FERC–500 or FERC–
505. Effective October 4, 2021,
information collection activities within
FERC–500 are for projects with an
installed capacity of more than 10 MW.
Information collection activities within
FERC–505 are for other smaller projects.
As required by OMB regulations at 5
CFR 1320.8(d), the Commission
provided a 60-day notice of its renewal
request in the Federal Register on July
23, 2025 (90 FR 34648). The publiccomment period expired on September
22, 2025. No comments were received.
The following table lists information
collection activities pertaining to
applications and notices of intent. The
table is organized as pairs of regulations
that address, respectively, applicability
and required contents of each activity.
