    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 New York State Historic 
Preservation Officer (New York SHPO) and the Advisory Council on 
Historic Preservation (Council) 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. Section 470 f), to prepare and 
execute a programmatic agreement for managing properties included in, 
or eligible for inclusion in, the National Register of Historic Places 
at Project No. 5334-019.
    The Programmatic Agreement, when executed by the Commission, and 
the New York 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 Piercefield Hydroelectric 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.
    Erie Boulevard Hydropower, L.P., as Licensee for Project No. 7387, 
and the Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe are invited to participate in 
consultation to develop the Programmatic Agreement.
    For purposes of commenting on the programmatic agreement, we 
propose to restrict the service list for the aforementioned projects as 
follows:
