within a holding company system subject to the jurisdiction of the Commission under the Public Utility Holding
Company Act of 2005 (42 U.S.C. §§ 16451
et seq.).
§ 368.2 General instructions.
(a) Scope of this part. (1) The regulations in this part apply to all books of
account and other records prepared,
maintained or held by any agent or employee on behalf of the company. The
specification in the schedule in § 368.3
of a record related to a type of transaction includes all documents and correspondence, not redundant or duplicative of other records retained, needed
to explain or verify the transaction.
(2) Company means a service company or a holding company as defined
in § 367.1 of this chapter. Public utilities, licensees, and natural gas companies must continue to use parts 125 and
225 of this chapter.
(3) Any company subject to this regulation, that, as agent, operator, lessor
or otherwise, maintains or has possession of any records relating to the operation, property or obligations of a
public utility, licensee, or natural gas
company, as defined in the Federal
Power Act (16 U.S.C. §§ 824 et seq.), the
Natural Gas Act (15 U.S.C. §§ 717 et seq.),
or the laws of any state within which
the public utility, licensee, or natural
gas company operates, must comply
with the laws or regulations as to
record retention and destruction which
would apply to the records if they were
records of the public utility, licensee,
or natural gas company as codified in
parts 125 and 225 of this chapter.
(4) The regulations in this part
should not be construed as excusing
compliance with other lawful requirements of any other governmental body,
Federal or State, prescribing other
record keeping requirements or for
preservation of records longer than
those prescribed in this part.
(5) To the extent that any Commission regulations may provide for a different record retention period, the
records must be retained for the longer
of the retention periods.
(6) Records, other than those listed in
the schedule, may be destroyed at the
option of the company. However,
records that are used in lieu of those

listed must be preserved for the periods
prescribed for the records used for substantially similar purposes. Additionally, retention of records pertaining to
added services, functions, plant, and
other similar service, the establishment of which cannot be presently
foreseen, must conform to the principles embodied in this section.
(7) Notwithstanding the provisions of
the records retention schedule in this
section, the Commission may, upon the
request of the company, authorize a
shorter period of retention for any
record listed in the schedule upon a
showing by the company that preservation of the record for a longer period is
not necessary or appropriate, in the
public interest or for the protection of
investors or consumers.
(b) Designation of supervisory official.
Each company subject to these record
retention regulations must designate
one or more officials to supervise the
preservation or authorized destruction
of its records.
(c) Protection and storage of records.
The company must provide reasonable
protection from damage by fire, flood,
and other hazards for records required
by these record retention regulations
to be preserved and, in the selection of
storage space, safeguard such records
from unnecessary exposure to deterioration from excessive humidity, dryness, or lack of proper ventilation.
(d) Index of records. At each site or location where company records are kept
or stored, the records must be arranged, filed, and currently indexed so
that records may be readily identified
and made available for inspection by
authorized representatives of any regulatory agency concerned, including the
Commission.
(e) Record storage media. Each company has the flexibility to select its
own storage media subject to the following conditions.
(1) The storage media must have a
life expectancy at least equal to the
applicable record retention period provided in § 368.3 of this chapter unless
there is a quality transfer from one
media to another with no loss of data.
(2) Each company is required to implement internal control procedures
that assure the reliability of, and ready

access to, data stored on machine readable media. Internal control procedures
must be documented by a responsible
supervisory official.
(3) Each transfer of data from one
media to another must be verified for
accuracy and documented. Software
and hardware required to produce readable records must be retained for the
same period the media format is used.
(f) Destruction of records. At the expiration of the retention period, the company may use any appropriate method
to destroy records. Precautions should
be taken, however, to macerate or otherwise destroy the legibility of records,
the content of which is forbidden by
law to be divulged to unauthorized persons.
(g) Premature destruction or loss of
records. When records are destroyed or
lost before the expiration of the prescribed period of retention, a certified
statement listing, as far as may be determined, the records destroyed and describing the circumstances of accidental or other premature destruction
or loss must be filed with the Commission within 90 days from the date of
discovery of the destruction.
(h) Schedule of records and periods of
retention. The schedule of records retention periods constitutes a part of
these records retention regulations.
The schedule prescribes the periods of
time that designated records must be
preserved. Plant records related to public utilities and licensees and natural
gas companies must be retained in accordance with §§ 125.3 and 225.3 of this
chapter.
(i) Retention periods designated ‘‘Destroy at option.’’ ‘‘Destroy at option’’
constitutes authorization for destruction of records at managements’ discre§ 368.3

§ 368.3
tion if the destruction does not conflict
with other legal retention requirements or usefulness of the records in
satisfying pending regulatory actions
or directives. ‘‘Destroy at option after
audit’’ requires retention until the
company has received an opinion from
its independent accountants with respect to the financial statements including the transactions to which the
records relate.
(j) Records of services performed by associate companies. Holding companies
and service companies must assure the
availability of records of services performed by and for public utilities and
licensees and natural gas companies
with supporting cost information for
the periods indicated in §§ 125.3 and
225.3 of this chapter as necessary to be
able to readily furnish detailed information as to the nature of the transaction, the amounts involved, and the
accounts used to record the transactions.
(k) Rate case. Notwithstanding the
minimum retention periods provided in
these regulations, the company must
retain the appropriate records to support the costs and adjustments proposed in any rate case.
(l) Pending complaint litigation or governmental proceedings. Notwithstanding
the minimum requirements, if a company is involved in pending litigation,
complaint procedures, proceedings remanded by the court, or governmental
proceedings, it must retain all relevant
records.
(m) Life or mortality study data. Life
or mortality study data for depreciation purposes must be retained for 25
years or for 10 years after property is
retired, whichever is longer.
