SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: FERC–730, Report of
Transmission Investment Activity.
OMB Control No.: 1902–0239.
Type of Request: Three-year extension
of the FERC–730 information collection
requirements with no changes to the
current reporting requirements.
Abstract: The Commission uses the
FERC–730 information collection to
determine the effectiveness of its rules
and to provide it with an accurate
assessment of the state of transmission
investment by public utilities. This
annual report includes projections,
information that details the level and
status of transmission investment, and
the reason for delay (if any). The report
must conform to the format prescribed
in Order No. 679, Appendix A.1 Filers
are strongly encouraged to submit the
FERC–730 electronically via eFiling.

FERC–730 is filed by public utilities
that have been granted incentive rate
treatment for specific electric
transmission projects. Actual and
planned transmission investments, and
related project data for the most recent
calendar year and the subsequent five
years, must be reported annually
beginning with the calendar year that
the Commission granted the incentive
rates.
Congress enacted section 1241 of the
Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct 2005),
adding section 219 to the Federal Power
Act (FPA), to promote the operation,
maintenance and enhancement of
electric transmission infrastructure.2
Congress aimed to benefit consumers by
ensuring reliability and/or reducing the
cost of delivered power through
reducing transmission congestion. In
response to EPAct 2005, the
Commission amended its regulations to
allow for these incentive-based,
(including performance-based), rate
treatments.
The Commission amended its
regulations in 18 CFR 35.35 to identify
the incentive ratemaking treatments
allowed under FPA section 219.
Incentives are required to be tailored to
the type of transmission investments
being made, and each applicant must
demonstrate that its proposal meets the
requirements of FPA section 219.
Type of Respondents: Public utilities
that have been granted incentive based
rate treatment for specific transmission
projects under provisions of 18 CFR
35.35
Estimate of Annual Burden: 3 The
Commission estimates4 the total Public
Reporting Burden and cost for this

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;

(2) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate
of the burden and cost of the collection
of information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) ways to enhance the quality, utility
and clarity of the information collection;

and (4) ways to minimize the burden of
the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including the use
of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.

1 Issued on 12/22/2006 in Docket No. RM06–4–
001 (Promoting Transmission Investment through
Pricing Reform).
2 Energy Policy Act of 2005, Public Law 109–58,
119 Stat. 594, 315 and 1283 (2005).
3 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 Title 5 Code of Federal
Regulations 1320.3.
4 The estimates for cost per response are derived
using the formula: Average Burden Hours per

Response * 79.00 per hour = Average Cost per
Response. The hourly cost figure comes from the
FERC average salary plus benefits of $164,820 per
year (or $79.00/hour). These estimates were
updated in May 2018. This figure is being used
because the staff thinks industry is similarly
situated in terms of average hourly cost.

Notice of Application; Texas Eastern
Transmission, LP
Take notice that on April 18, 2019,
Texas Eastern Transmission, LP (Texas
Eastern), 5400 Westheimer Court,
Houston, Texas 77056–5310, filed in
Docket No. CP19–191–000 an
application pursuant to sections 7(b)
and 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA)
and Part 157 of the Commission’s
regulations for authorization to
construct its proposed Bernville
Compressor Units Replacement Project
(Project). The Project consists of
replacing two existing compressor units
and related facilities, with two new,
more efficient compressor units at its
Bernville Compressor Station located in
Berks County, Pennsylvania. Texas
Eastern asserts that the Project will
allow this portion of its system to
comply with future air emission
reduction requirements in
Pennsylvania.
Specifically, Texas Eastern is
requesting authorization to replace two
existing General Electric Company
Frame 5 centrifugal natural gas-fired
turbines consisting of one 22,000
horsepower (hp) unit installed in 1958,
and one 19,800 hp unit installed in
1968, with a total station certificated
horsepower of 41,800 hp. Texas Eastern
proposes to replace these two existing
units with one new 26,000 hp Solar
Turbine, Inc. (Solar) Titan 250 natural
gas-fired turbine and one new 18,100 hp
Solar Titan 130 natural gas-fired
turbine. Texas Eastern states that it will
install software controls on the 26,000
hp Solar Titan 250 turbine to limit the
horsepower on that turbine to 23,700

hp, so that the total designed
horsepower and delivery capacity at the
Bernville Compressor Station will
remain substantially the same. Texas
Eastern estimates the cost of the Project
to be $125,443,261, all as more fully set
forth in the application which is on file
with the Commission and open to
public inspection.
The filing is available for review at
the Commission in the Public Reference
Room or may be viewed on the
Commission’s website web at http://
www.ferc.gov using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link.

Pursuant to section 157.9 of the
Commission’s rules (18 CFR 157.9),
within 90 days of this Notice, the
Commission staff will either: complete
its environmental assessment (EA) and
place it into the Commission’s public
record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or
issue a Notice of Schedule for
Environmental Review. If a Notice of
Schedule for Environmental Review is
issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the
Commission staff’s issuance of the final
environmental impact statement (FEIS)
or EA for this proposal. The filing of the
EA in the Commission’s public record
for this proceeding or the issuance of a
Notice of Schedule for Environmental
Review will serve to notify federal and
state agencies of the timing for the
completion of all necessary reviews, and
the subsequent need to complete all
federal authorizations within 90 days of
the date of issuance of the Commission
staff’s FEIS or EA.
There are two ways to become
involved in the Commission’s review of
this project. First, any person wishing to
obtain legal status by becoming a party
to the proceedings for this project
should, on or before the comment date
stated below, file with the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888
First Street, NE, Washington, DC 20426,

with the requirements of the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
