cycle, ET2, and the duration of the
defrost cycle, tDI, shall be recorded.

Based on the measured energy
consumption in these two tests, the

daily energy consumption (DEC) in kWh
shall be calculated as

Where:
DEC = Daily Energy Consumption in
kilowatt-hours (kWh);
ET1 = energy expended during the first part
of the test, in kWh;
ET2 = energy expended during the second
part of the test, in kWh;
tNDI = normalized length of defrosting time
per day, in minutes;
tDI = length of time of one defrosting cycle,
in minutes;
7 = conversion factor of days per week;
1440 = conversion factor to adjust to a 24hour period in minutes per day.

IV. REQUEST FOR INTERIM WAIVER
AHT also requests an interim waiver
for its testing and rating of the basic
models listed in Appendix I. Based on
its merits, the petition for waiver is
likely to be granted. Further, it is
essential that an interim waiver be
granted, as AHT plans to distribute
units of the models that would be
affected by the DOE rule as otherwise
applicable on and after the March 28,
2017, compliance date. Without waiver
relief, AHT will be at a competitive
disadvantage in the market for these
important products and would suffer
economic hardship. AHT would be
subject to requirements that clearly
should not apply to such products.
V. OTHER MANUFACTURERS
A list of manufacturers of all other
basic models distributed in commerce
in the United States and known to AHT
to incorporate overall design
characteristic(s) similar to those found
in the basic model(s) that are the subject
of the petition is set forth in Appendix
II.

FERC Form 73, Oil Pipeline Service Life
Data
OMB Control No.: 1902–0019.
Abstract: The Commission has
authority over interstate oil pipelines as
stated in the Interstate Commerce Act,
49 U.S.C. 6501, et al. As part of the
information necessary for the
subsequent investigation and review of
an oil pipeline company’s proposed
depreciation rates, the pipeline

24337

companies are required to provide
service life data as part of their data
submissions if the proposed
depreciation rates are based on the
remaining physical life calculations.
This service life data is submitted on
FERC Form 73, ‘‘Oil Pipeline Service
Life Data’’. The FERC Form 73 is used
by the Commission to implement the
statutory provisions of Sections 306 and
402 of the Department of Energy
Organization Act, 42 U.S.C. 7155 and
7172, and Executive Order No. 12009,
42 FR 46277 (September 13, 1977).1
The submitted data are used by the
Commission to assist in the selection of
appropriate service lives and book
depreciation rates. Book depreciation
rates are used by oil pipeline companies
to compute the depreciation portion of
their operating expense which is a
component of their cost of service
which in turn is used to determine the
transportation rate to assess customers.
FERC staff’s recommended book
depreciation rates become legally
binding when issued by Commission
order. These rates remain in effect until
a subsequent review is requested and
the outcome indicates that a
modification is justified. The
Commission implements these filings in
18 CFR parts 347 and 357.
Type of Respondent: Oil Pipeline
companies.
Estimate of Annual Burden: The
Commission estimates the annual public
reporting burden for the information
collection as:

Procedure: Complaint Procedures
OMB Control No.: 1902–0180.
Abstract: The information is used by
the Commission to implement the

Power Act (FPA), 16 U.S.C. 791a–825r;
the Natural Gas Act (NGA), 15 U.S.C.
717–717w; the Natural Gas Policy Act

2005, (Pub. L. 109–58) 119 Stat. 594.
For the natural gas industry, section
14(a) of the NGA 3 provides that the
Commission may permit any person to
file with it a statement in writing, under
oath or otherwise, as it shall determine,

Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 101 / Friday, May 26, 2017 / Notices

Section 215(d) (5) of the FPA 5
provides that the Commission, upon its
own motion or upon complaint, may
order the Electric Reliability
Organization to submit to the
Commission a proposed reliability
standard or a modification to a
reliability standard that addresses a
specific matter if the Commission
considers such a new or modified
reliability standard appropriate to carry
out this section.
For hydropower projects, section 19
of the FPA 6 provides that, as a
condition of a license, jurisdiction is
conferred upon the Commission, upon
complaint of any person aggrieved or
upon its own initiative, to exercise such
regulation and control over services,
rates, and charges until such time as the
State shall have provided a commission
or other authority for such regulation
and control.
For qualifying facilities, section
210(h)(2)(B) of PURPA 7 provides that
any electric utility, qualifying
cogenerator, or qualifying small power
producer may petition the Commission
to enforce the requirements of the
Commission’s PURPA regulations.
For oil pipelines, in Part 1 of the
Interstate Commerce Act, sections 1, 6
and 15 (recodified by Pub. L. 95–473
and found as an appendix to Title 49
U.S.C.),8 the Commission is authorized
to investigate the rates charged by oil

pipeline companies subject to its
jurisdiction. If an oil rate has been filed
and allowed by the Commission to go
into effect without suspension and
hearing, the Commission can investigate
the effective rate on its own motion or
by complaint filed with the
Commission. Section 13 of the ICA 9
provides that any person can file a
complaint complaining of anything
done or omitted to be done by an oil
pipeline.
In Order No. 602,10 the Commission
revised its regulations governing
complaints filed with the Commission
under the above statutes. Order No. 602
was designed to encourage and support
consensual resolution of complaints,
and to organize the complaint
procedures so that all complaints are
handled in a timely and fair manner. In
order to achieve this result, the
Commission revised Rule 206 of its
Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR
385.206) to require that a complaint
satisfy certain informational
requirements, to require that answers be
filed in a shorter, 20-day time frame,
and to provide that parties may employ
various types of alternative dispute
resolution procedures to resolve their
disputes.
The data in complaints filed by
interested/affected parties regarding
jurisdictional oil, natural gas, electric
and hydropower operations, facilities,

and services are used by the
Commission in establishing a basis to
make an initial determination regarding
the merits of the complaint and whether
or not to undertake further
investigation. Investigations may range
from whether there is undue
discrimination in rates or services to
questions regarding market power of
regulated entities to environmental
concerns. In order to make an informed
determination, it is important to know
the specifics underlying any oil, gas,
electric, and hydropower complaint
‘‘up-front’’ in a timely manner and in
sufficient detail to allow the
Commission to act swiftly. In addition,
such complaint data helps the
Commission and interested parties to
monitor, e.g., the market for undue
discrimination or exercises of market
power. The information is voluntary but
submitted pursuant to prescribed filing
requirements. The Commission
implements these filing requirements in
the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR)
under 18 CFR parts 343 and 385.
Type of Respondent: Interested/
affected parties regarding oil, natural
gas, electric and hydropower operations,
facilities, and services.
Estimate of Annual Burden: The
Commission estimates the annual public
reporting burden for the information
collection as:
