SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: FERC–603, Critical Energy/
Electric Infrastructure Information (CEII)
Request.
OMB Control No.: 1902–0197.
Type of Request: Three-year extension
of the information collection
requirements for FERC–603, with no
changes to the current reporting
requirements.1 Clarifications and an
administrative update, as discussed
below, will be included.
Abstract: This collection is used by
the Commission to implement
procedures for individuals with a valid
or legitimate need requesting access to
Critical Energy/Electric Infrastructure
Information (CEII), which is exempt
from disclosure under the Freedom of
Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552), subject
to a non-disclosure agreement.
On February, 21, 2003, the
Commission issued Order No. 630 (66
FR 52917) to address the appropriate

treatment of Critical Energy
Infrastructure Information in the
aftermath of the September 11, 2001
terrorist attacks. Given that such
information would typically be exempt
from mandatory disclosure pursuant to
the Freedom of Information Act, the
Commission determined that it was
important to have a process for
individuals with a valid and legitimate
need to access certain critical
infrastructure information. As such, the
Commission’s Critical Energy
Infrastructure Information process was
designed to limit the distribution of
critical infrastructure information to
those individuals with a need to know
in order to avoid having sensitive
information fall into the hands of those
who may use it to attack the Nation’s
infrastructure.2 This collection was
prepared as part of the implementation
of the Critical Energy Infrastructure
Information request process.
On December 4, 2015, President
Obama signed the Fixing America’s
Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act)
into law, which directed the
Commission to issue regulations aimed
at securing and sharing critical
infrastructure information.3 On
November 17, 2016, in Order No. 833
(in Docket No. RM16–15), the
Commission adopted a Final Rule
implementing the FAST Act by

amending its regulations that pertain to
the designation, protection, and sharing
of Critical Energy/Electric Infrastructure
Information (CEII). The Final Rule
became effective on February 21, 2017.4
FERC–603, Critical Energy/Electric
Infrastructure Information (CEII) request
form is largely unchanged from the
previously approved version. As in the
previous version, a person seeking
access to CEII must file a request for that
information by providing information
about their identity and the reason the
individual needs the information. With
that information, the Commission is
able to assess the requester’s need for
the information against the sensitivity of
the information. The form will be
updated to refer to CEII as Critical
Energy/Electric Infrastructure
Information as opposed to Critical
Energy Infrastructure Information.5 The
form will also be updated to provide
clarification about the statement of need
that CEII requesters must provide by
referring individuals to the regulations.6
Compliance with these requirements is
mandatory. A sample updated CEII
request form is attached to this notice.
Type of Respondent: Persons seeking
access to CEII.
Estimate of Annual Burden: 7 The
Commission estimates the total annual
burden and cost 8 for this information
collection as follows.

Comments: Comments are invited on:
(1) Whether the collection of

information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the

Commission, including whether the
information will have practical utility;

1 The Commission previously issued a 60-day
Notice in the Federal Register (82 FR 8735, 1/30/
2017) requesting public comments on FERC–603.
The Commission received no comments.
2 The Commission defined Critical Energy
Infrastructure Information to include information
about ‘‘existing or proposed critical infrastructure
that: (i) Relates to the production, generation,
transportation, transmission, or distribution of
energy; (ii) could be useful to a person planning an
attack on critical infrastructure; (iii) is exempt from
mandatory disclosure under the Freedom of
Information Act, and (iv) does not simply give the
location of the critical infrastructure. Critical
infrastructure means existing and proposed systems
and assets, whether physical or virtual, the
incapacity or destruction of which would
negatively affect security, economic security, public
health or safety, or any combination of those
matters.
3 Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act,
Pub. L. 114–94, 61,003, 129 Stat. 1312, 1773–1779

(2015) (to be codified at 16 U.S.C. 824 et seq.)
(FAST Act).
4 The sample CEII Request Form will be posted
with this Notice in Docket No. IC17–3 in eLibrary,
but it will not be published in the Federal Register.
5 Section 215A(a)(3) of the FAST Act defined
Critical Electric Infrastructure Information to
include information that qualifies as critical energy
infrastructure information under the Commission’s
regulations. The Commission therefore defined the
term ‘‘Critical Electric Infrastructure Information’’
to include ‘‘Critical Energy Infrastructure
Information’’ as defined under the Commission’s
existing regulations and determined to refer to both
types of information, collectively, as CEII.
6 Specifically, 18 CFR 388.113(g)(5)(i)(b) states
that a Statement of Need must include: The extent
to which a particular function is dependent upon
access to the information; why the function cannot
be achieved or performed without access to the
information; an explanation of whether other

information is available to the requester that could
facilitate the same objective; how long the
information will be needed; whether or not the
information is needed to participate in a specific
proceeding (with that proceeding identified); and
an explanation of whether the information is
needed expeditiously.
7 ‘‘Burden’’ is the total time, effort, or financial
resources expended by persons to generate,
maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information
to or for a Federal agency. For further explanation
of what is included in the information collection
burden, refer to Title 5 Code of Federal Regulations
1320.3.
8 The Commission staff thinks that the average
respondent for this collection is similarly situated
to the Commission, in terms of salary plus benefits.
Based upon FERC’s 2016 annual average of
$154,647 (for salary plus benefits), the average
hourly cost is $74.50/hour.
