SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: FERC Form No. 2 (Annual
Report of Major Natural Gas Companies)
and FERC Form No. 2–A (Annual
Report of Non-major Natural Gas
Companies).1
OMB Control Nos.: 1902–0028 (FERC
Form No. 2) and 1902–0030 (FERC Form
No. 2–A).
Type of Request: Three-year extension
of the FERC Form No. 2 and FERC Form
No. 2–A information collection
requirements with no changes to the
reporting requirements.
Abstract: Pursuant to sections 8, 10
and 14 of the National Gas Act (NGA),
(15 U.S.C. 717g–717m, Pub. L. 75–688),
the Commission is authorized to make
investigations and collect and record
data, to prescribe rules and regulations
concerning accounts, records and
memoranda as necessary or appropriate
for purposes of administering the NGA.
The Commission includes the filing
requirements in 18 CFR parts 260.1 and
260.2.
The forms provide information
concerning a company’s past
performance. The information is
compiled using a standard chart of
accounts contained in the Commission’s
Uniform System of Accounts (USofA).2
The forms contain schedules which
include a basic set of financial

33491

statements: Comparative Balance Sheet,
Statement of Income and Retained
Earnings, Statement of Cash Flows, and
the Statement of Comprehensive Income
and Hedging Activities. Supporting
schedules containing supplementary
information are filed, including
revenues and the related quantities of
products sold or transported; account
balances for various operating and
maintenance expenses; selected plant
cost data; and other information.
The information collected in the
forms is used by Commission staff, state
regulatory agencies and others in the
review of the financial condition of
regulated companies. The information is
also used in various rate proceedings,
industry analyses and in the
Commission’s audit programs and, as
appropriate, for the computation of
annual charges based on Page 520 of the
forms. The Commission provides the
information to the public, interveners
and all interested parties to assist in the
proceedings before the Commission.
Print versions of the Forms No. 2 and
2–A are located on the Commission’s
Web site at http://www.ferc.gov/docsfiling/forms.asp#2 and http://
www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/forms.asp#2a
respectively.
Type of Respondents: Each natural gas
company whose combined gas
transported or stored for a fee exceeds
50 million dekatherms in each of the
previous three years must file the Form
2. Each natural gas company not
meeting the filing threshold for the
Form 2 but having total gas sales or
volume transactions exceeding 200,000
dekatherms in each of the previous
three calendar years must submit the
Form 2–A.
Estimate of Annual Burden 3: The
Commission estimates the annual public
reporting burden for the information
collections as:

using the following formula: 2017 Average Burden

We assume that respondents earn at a similar rate.
