PROVISIONS REGARDING CONFIDENTIALITY OF
INFORMATION
The information reported on this form will be protected and not
disclosed to the public to the extent that it satisfies the criteria for
exemption under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5
U.S.C. §552, the DOE regulations, 10 C.F.R. §1004.11,
implementing the FOIA, and the Trade Secrets Act, 18 U.S.C.
§1905.
The Federal Energy Administration Act requires the EIA to
provide company-specific data to other Federal agencies when
requested for official use. The information reported on this form
may also be made available, upon request, to another
component of the Department of Energy (DOE); to any
Committee of Congress, the Government Accountability Office,
or other Federal agencies authorized by law to receive such
information. A court of competent jurisdiction may obtain this
information in response to an order. The information may be
used for any nonstatistical purposes such as administrative,

FILING FORMS WITH THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT AND ESTIMATED REPORTING
BURDEN
Respondents are not required to file or reply to any Federal
collection of information unless it has a valid OMB control
number. Public reporting burden for this collection of information
is estimated to average .95 hour per response, including the time
of reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources,
gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and
reviewing the collection of information. Send comments
regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this
collection of information including suggestions for reducing this
burden to: Energy Information Administration, Office of Survey
Development and Statistical Integration, EI-21, 1000

Disclosure limitation procedures are not applied to the statistical
data published from this survey's information. Thus, there may
be some statistics that are based on data from fewer than three
respondents, or that are dominated by data from one or two
large respondents. In these cases, it may be possible for a
knowledgeable person to estimate the information reported by a
specific respondent.
Company specific data are also provided to other DOE offices for
the purpose of examining specific petroleum operations in the
context of emergency response planning and actual
emergencies.

SANCTIONS
The timely submission of Form EIA-802 by those required to
report is mandatory under Section 13(b) of the Federal Energy
Administration Act of 1974 (FEAA) (Public Law 93-275), as
amended. Failure to respond may result in a civil penalty of not
more than $2,750 per day for each violation, or a fine of not more
than $5,000 per day for each criminal violation. The government
may bring a civil action to prohibit reporting violations which may
result in a temporary restraining order or a preliminary or
permanent injunction without bond. In such civil action, the court
may also issue mandatory injunctions commanding any person
to comply with these reporting requirements.
