minimize the burden of the collections
of information on those who are to
respond, including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
FERC–567, [Gas Pipeline Certificates:
Annual Reports of System Flow
Diagrams and System Capacity]
OMB Control No.: 1902–0005
Abstract: The Commission uses the
information from the FERC–567 to
obtain accurate data on pipeline
facilities and the peak capacity of these
facilities. Additionally, the Commission
validates the need for new facilities
proposed by pipelines in certificate
applications. By modeling an
applicant’s pipeline system,
Commission staff utilizes the FERC–567
data to determine configuration and
location of installed pipeline facilities;
verify and determine the receipt and

delivery points between shippers,
producers and pipeline companies;
determine the location of receipt and
delivery points and emergency
interconnections on a pipeline system;
determine the location of pipeline
segments, laterals and compressor
stations on a pipeline system; verify
pipeline segment lengths and pipeline
diameters; justify the maximum
allowable operating pressures and
suction and discharge pressures at
compressor stations; verify the installed
horsepower and volumes compressed at
each compressor station; determine the
existing shippers and producers
currently using each pipeline company;
verify peak capacity on the system; and
develop and evaluate alternatives to the
proposed facilities as a means to
mitigate environmental impact of new
pipeline construction.

18 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR)
260.8(a) requires each major natural gas
pipeline with a system delivery capacity
exceeding 100,000 Mcf 2 per day to
submit by June 1 of each year, diagrams
reflecting operating conditions on the
pipeline’s main transmission system
during the previous 12 months ended
December 31. These physical/
engineering data are not included as
part of any other data collection
requirement.
Type of Respondent: Applicants
proposing hydropower projects on (or
changes to existing projects located
within) lands owned by the United
States.
Estimate of Annual Burden: The
Commission estimates the annual public
reporting burden for the information
collection as:

3 The estimates for cost per response are derived using the following formula: Average Burden Hours per Response * $72 per Hour = Average
Cost per Response. The hourly cost figure comes from the FERC average salary. Subject matter experts found that industry employment costs
closely resemble FERC’s regarding the FERC–567 information collection.

FERC–587, [Land Description (Public
Land States/Non-Public Land States
[Rectangular or Non-Rectangular
Survey System Lands in Public Land

OMB Control No.: 1902–0145
Abstract: The Commission requires
the FERC–587 information collection to
satisfy the requirements of section 24 of
the Federal Power Act (FPA). The
Federal Power Act grants the
Commission authority to issue licenses
for the development and improvement
of navigation and for the development,
transmission, and utilization of power
across, along, from or in any of the
steams or other bodies of water over
which Congress has jurisdiction.4 The

cubic feet of natural gas.

Electric Consumers Protection Act
(ECPA) amends the FPA to allow the
Commission the responsibility of
issuing licenses for nonfederal
hydroelectric plants.5 Section 24 of the
FPA requires that applicants proposing
hydropower projects on (or changes to
existing projects located within) lands
owned by the United States to provide
a description of the applicable U.S.
land. Additionally, the FPA requires the
notification of the Commission and
Secretary of the Interior of the
hydropower proposal. FERC–587
consolidates the information required
and identifies hydropower project
boundary maps associated with the
applicable U.S. land.

be reserved as hydropower sites and
withdrawn from other uses.
