Except as provided in paragraph (b) of this section, each licensee of a project under major or minor Commission license shall prepare with respect to each development within such project a FERC Form No. 80 and submit them to the Secretary of the Commission in accordance with filing procedures posted on the Commission's Web site at http://www.ferc.gov.
(2)
FERC Form No. 80 is due on April 1, 2009, for data compiled during the calendar year ending December 31, 2008. Thereafter, FERC Form No. 80 is due on April 1 of every sixth year for data compiled during the previous calendar year.
(b) Initial Form No. 80 filings.
Each licensee of an unconstructed project shall file an initial Form No. 80 after such project has been in operation for a full calendar year prior to the filing deadline. Each licensee of an existing (constructed) project shall file an initial Form No. 80 after such project has been licensed for a full calendar year prior to the filing deadline.
(c) Exemptions.
A licensee who has filed a Form No. 80 may request an exemption from any further filing of the form for any development that has no existing or potential recreational use or only a minor existing or potential recreational use (as indicated by fewer than 100 recreation days of use during the previous calendar year) by submitting a statement not later than 6 months prior to the due date for the next filing, stating that Form No. 80 has been filed previously for such development and setting out the basis for believing that the development has no existing or potential recreational use or a minor existing or potential recreational use.
