SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: FERC–588, Emergency Natural
Gas Transportation, Sale and Exchange
Transactions.
OMB Control No.: 1902–0144.
Type of Request: Three-year extension
of the FERC–588 information collection
requirements with no changes to the
reporting requirements.
Abstract: The FERC–588 is used by
the Commission to implement the
statutory provisions of sections 7(c) of
the Natural Gas Act (NGA) (Pub. L. 75–
688) (15 U.S.C. 717–717w) and
provisions of the Natural Gas Policy Act
of 1978 (NGPA), 15 U.S.C. 3301–3432.
Under the NGA, a natural gas company
must obtain Commission approval to
engage in the transportation, sale or
exchange of natural gas in interstate
commerce. However, section 7(c)
exempts from certificate requirements
‘‘temporary acts or operations for which

PO 00000

Frm 00026

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

24959

the issuance of a certificate will not be
required in the public interest.’’ The
NGPA also provides for non-certificated
interstate transactions involving
intrastate pipelines and local
distribution companies.
A temporary operation, or emergency,
is defined as any situation in which an
actual or expected shortage of gas
supply would require an interstate
pipeline company, intrastate pipeline,
or local distribution company, or
Hinshaw pipeline to curtail deliveries of
gas or provide less than the projected
level of service to the customer. The
natural gas companies which provide
the temporary assistance to the
companies which are having the
‘‘emergency’’ must file the necessary
information described in 18 CFR part
284, subpart I with the Commission, so
that it may determine if their assisting
transaction/operation qualifies for
exemption. The assisting company may
or may not be under the Commission’s
jurisdiction and if their assisting actions
qualify for the exemption, they will not
become subject to the Commission’s
jurisdiction for such actions.
A report within forty-eight hours of
the commencement of the
transportation, sale or exchange, a
request to extend the sixty-day term of
the emergency transportation, if needed,
and a termination report are required.
The data required to be filed for the
forty-eight hour report is specified by 18
CFR 284.270.
Type of Respondents: Natural Gas
Pipelines.
Estimate of Annual Burden: 1 The
Commission estimates the Public
Reporting Burden for this information
collection as:
1 Burden is defined as 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 5 Code of Federal
Regulations 1320.3.
2 The estimates for cost per response are derived
using the 2017 FERC average salary plus benefits of
$158,754/year (or $76.50/hour). Commission staff
finds that the work done for this information
collection is typically done by wage categories
similar to those at FERC.
