The
information collected under the
requirements of FERC–547, ‘‘Gas
Pipeline Rates: Refund Report
Requirements’’ (OMB Control No. 1902–
0084), is used by the Commission to
implement the statutory refund
provisions governed by sections 4, 5,
and 16 of the Natural Gas Act (NGA).1
Sections 4 and 5 authorize the
Commission to order a refund, with
interest, for any portion of a natural gas
company’s increased rate or charge
found to be unjust or unreasonable.
Refunds may also be instituted by a
natural gas company as a stipulation to
a Commission-approved settlement
agreement or a provision under the
company’s tariff. Section 16 of the NGA
authorizes the Commission to prescribe
rules and regulations necessary to
administer its refund mandates. The
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Commission’s refund reporting
requirements are found in 18 CFR
154.501 and 154.502.
The Commission uses the data to
monitor refunds owed by natural gas
companies to ensure that the flowthrough of refunds owed by these
companies are made as expeditiously as
possible and to assure that refunds are
made in compliance with the
Commission’s regulations.
Action: The Commission is requesting
a three-year extension of the FERC–547
reporting requirements, with no
changes.
Burden Statement: The estimated
annual public reporting burden for
FERC–547 is reduced from the estimate
made three years ago due to a reduction
in the average number of filings
received annually, from 60 in 2007, to
30 presently.

The total estimated annual cost
burden to respondents is $149,143 (2250
hours/2080 hours 2 per year, times
$137,874 3).
The reporting burden includes the
total time, effort, or financial resources
expended to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose, or provide the information,
including: (1) Reviewing instructions;
(2) developing, acquiring, installing, and
utilizing technology and systems for the
purposes of collecting, validating,
verifying, processing, maintaining,
disclosing and providing information;
(3) adjusting the existing ways to
comply with any previously applicable
instructions and requirements; (4)
training personnel to respond to a
collection of information; (5) searching
data sources; (6) completing and
reviewing the collection of information;
and (7) transmitting, or otherwise
disclosing the information.
The estimate of cost for respondents
is based upon salaries for professional
and clerical support, as well as direct
and indirect overhead costs. Direct costs
include all costs directly attributable to
providing this information, such as
administrative costs and the cost for
information technology. Indirect or
overhead costs are costs incurred by an
organization in support of its mission.
These costs apply to activities which

benefit the whole organization rather
than any one particular function or
activity.
Comments are invited on: (1) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the Commission,
including whether the information will
have practical utility; (2) the accuracy of
the agency’s estimate of the burden of
the proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (3)
ways to enhance the quality, utility and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (4) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on those who are to respond, including
the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g. permitting electronic submission of
responses.
