Form OE-781R (2010)
PURPOSE
MONTHLY ELECTRICITY IMPORTS AND
EXPORTS REPORT
Form Approved
OMB No. 1901-0296
Approval Expires 12/31/xxxx
Form OE-781R collects international electric export/import data required pursuant to 10 Code of Federal Regulations 205.300-309.
Under those regulations, holders of Export Authorizations (authorizations to export electric energy from the United States to foreign
countries) and Presidential Permits (permits for the construction and operation of electric power transmission lines that cross the U.S.
international border) are required to report monthly the flows of electric energy received or delivered, the cost and revenues
associated with those transactions, related ancillary services, the characteristics of transmission operations, and the current and
proposed capacities of cross-border lines. The data collected on this form may appear in the following Energy Information
Administration (EIA) and Office of Electricity Delivery and Energy Reliability (OE) publications: Electric Power Annual, Annual Energy
Review, Annual Energy Outlook, Electric Power Monthly, and Transactions Across International Borders (OE).
REQUIRED RESPONDENTS
Holders of Export Authorizations and Presidential Permits issued pursuant to 10 CFR section 205.300 and 10 CFR section 205.320
must file the Form OE-781R monthly. Other respondents are entities engaged in international commerce, classified under the
following NERC functional categories: Transmission Operator (TOP), Purchasing and Selling Entity (PSE), and Transmission Owners
(TO).
RESPONSE DUE DATE
Submit the completed Form OE-781R for each month to the EIA no later than the last day of the month following the reporting month.
For example, if reporting data is for June, the survey is due on July 30.
METHODS OF FILING RESPONSE
The method for filing the Form OE-781R is via EIA’s electronic forms (e-filing) system. That system is secure, has built-in edits
to catch errors before the form is submitted to EIA, saves time and effort, and reduces the likelihood of a callback from EIA. If you are
not already validated in the system, log on to http://www.eia.doe.gov/electricity/edc for instructions. If your firm’s activities encompass
multiple NERC functional categories (TSO, PSE, and TO), each group will require a unique validation code to help maintain the
separation of scheduling and marketing information within the firm.
There are other filing options if access to the Internet is not available:
E-mail the form to: [email protected]
Fax the form to: (202) 287-1959 or (202) 287-1960
Mail the form to: U.S. Department of Energy, Energy Information Administration, Mail Stop: BG-076 (Form OE-781R), 1000
Independence Avenue, SW, Washington, DC 20586-0690
Note that commonly used facsimile and e-mail transmissions (including files attached to email messages) travel over ordinary
telephone lines and are not considered secure electronic methods of transmitting survey data. Please retain a copy of your
submission for your files.

SANCTIONS
The terms and conditions of an electricity export authorization and Presidential permit for the construction, operation, maintenance, and connection of
an international electric transmission facility issued by DOE require the holder of such an authorization or permit to submit the information and data
necessary to complete Form OE-781R in a timely and accurate manner. The timely submission of Form OE-781R by those required to report also is
mandatory under Section 13(b) of the Federal Energy Administration Act of 1974 (FEAA) (Public Law 93-275), as amended.
Failure to respond may result in a penalty of not more than $2,750 per day for each civil violation, or a fine of not more than $5,000 per
day for each criminal violation. The Government may bring a civil action to prohibit reporting violations, which may result in a
temporary restraining order or a preliminary or permanent injunction without bond. In such civil action, the court may also issue
mandatory injunctions commanding any person to comply with these reporting requirements. Title 18 U.S.C. 1001 makes it a criminal
offense for any person knowingly and willingly to make to any Agency or Department of the United States any false, fictitious, or
fraudulent statements as to any matter within its jurisdiction.
Obtaining a valid Order from DOE authorizing the export of electricity under section 202(e) of the Federal Power Act (FPA) is a
necessary condition before engaging in the export. Failure to obtain such an Order, or continuing to export after the expiration of such
an Order, may result in a denial of authorization to export in the future and subject the exporter to sanctions and penalties under the
FPA. Also, a violation of any terms or conditions of the Order authorizing the electricity export, including the failure to submit timely
and accurate reports, may result in the loss of authority to export electricity and subject the holder of such authorization to sanctions
and penalties under the FPA.
REPORTING BURDEN
Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 7.8 hours per respondent, including the time for
reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the
collection of information. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including
suggestions for reducing this burden to the Energy Information Administration, Statistics and Methods Group, EI-70, 1000
Independence Avenue S.W., Forrestal Building, Washington, D.C. 20585-0670; and to the Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management and Budget, Washington, D.C. 20503. A person is not required to respond to the collection of
information unless the form displays a valid OMB number.
PROTECTED INFORMATION
Information reported on Form OE-781R will not be treated as confidential and may be publicly released in identifiable form. In addition
to the use of the information by EIA for statistical purposes, the information may be used for any nonstatistical purposes, such as
administrative, regulatory, law enforcement, or adjudicatory purposes by OE.
