SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: FERC–598, Self-Certification for
Entities Seeking Exempt Wholesale
Generator or Foreign Utility Company
Status.
OMB Control No.: 1902–0166.
Type of Request: Three-year renewal
of FERC–598.
Abstract: Under 42 U.S.C. 16452(a),
public-utility holding companies and
their associates must maintain, and
make available to the Commission,
certain books, accounts, memoranda,
and other records. The pertinent records
are those that the Commission has
determined: (1) Are relevant to costs
incurred by a public-utility company
that is an associate company of such
holding company; and (2) are necessary
or appropriate for the protection of
utility customers with respect to
jurisdictional rates.
Public-utility holding companies and
their associates may seek exemption
from this requirement. The pertinent
statutory and regulatory provisions, 42
U.S.C. 16454 and 18 CFR 366.7,
authorize such entities to file with the
Commission a notice of self-certification
demonstrating that their public-utility
companies are ‘‘exempt wholesale
generators’’ (EWGs) or ‘‘foreign utility
companies’’ (FUCOs). If the Commission
takes no action on a good-faith selfcertification filing within 60 days after
the date of filing, the applicant is
exempt from the requirements of 42
U.S.C. 16452(a).
An EWG is defined as ‘‘any person
engaged directly, or indirectly through
one or more affiliates . . . and
exclusively in the business of owning or
operating, or both owning and
operating, all or part of one or more
eligible facilities and selling electric
energy at wholesale.’’ 1 A FUCO is
defined as ‘‘any company that owns or
1

PO 00000

18 CFR 366.1.

Frm 00016

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

operates facilities that are not located in
any state and that are used for the
generation, transmission, or distribution
of electric energy for sale or the
distribution at retail of natural or
manufactured gas for heat, light, or
power, if such company: (1) derives no
part of its income, directly or indirectly,
from the generation, transmission, or
distribution of electric energy for sale or
the distribution at retail of natural or
manufactured gas for heat, light, or
power, within the United States; and (2)
[n]either the company nor any of its
subsidiary companies is a public-utility
company operating in the United
States.’’ 2
In the case of EWGs, the person filing
a notice of self-certification must also
file a copy of the notice of selfcertification with the state regulatory
authority of the state in which the
facility is located. In addition, that
person must represent to the
Commission in its submission that it has
filed a copy of the notice with the
appropriate state regulatory authority.3
In accordance with OMB
requirements,4 the Commission issued
and published a 60-day notice inviting
public comments. The Commission
issued the 60-day Notice on October 30,
2020, and published it in the Federal
Register on November 5, 2020.5 The
Commission received no comments in
response.
Type of Respondents: EWGs and
FUCOs.
Estimate of Annual Burden: 6 The
Commission estimates the total annual
burden and cost 7 for this information
collection as follows:
Id.
18 CFR 366.7(a).
4 5 CFR 1320.8(d).
5 85 FR 70604.
6 ‘‘Burden’’ is 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 CFR 1320.3.
7 The Commission staff thinks that the average
respondent for this collection is similarly situated
to the Commission, in terms of salary plus benefits.
Based upon FERC’s FY 2020 annual full-time
equivalent average of $172,329 (for salary plus
benefits), the average hourly cost is $83 per hour.
