1

As provided at 18 CFR 284.8, an interstate

pipeline that offers transportation service on a firm

basis must include in its tariff a mechanism for firm

shippers to release firm capacity to the pipeline for

resale.

2

No-notice transportation allows for the

reservation of pipeline capacity on demand without

incurring any penalties.

3

For FERC–549B, FERC–549D, FERC–556, and

FERC–561, ‘‘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 5 CFR 1320.3.

4

For FERC–549B, the Commission staff believes

that industry is similarly situated to the

Commission in terms of wages and benefits.

Therefore, cost estimates are based on FERC’s 2021

average annual wage (and benefits) for a full-time

employee of $180,703 (or $87.00/hour).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

:

1. FERC–549B

Title: FERC–549B, Gas Pipeline Rates:

Capacity Reports and Index of

Customers.

OMB Control No.: 1902–0169.

Type of Request: Three-year extension

of the FERC–549B information

collection requirements with no changes

to the current reporting requirements.

The Commission issued a 60-day notice

on November 30, 2021 (86 FR 67943)

requesting public comments; no

comments were received.

Abstract: As described below, FERC–

549B is comprised of information

collection activities at 18 CFR 284.13(b),

284.13(c), 284.13(d)(1), and

284.13(d)(2). The purpose of these

information collection activities is to

provide reliable information about

capacity availability and price that

shippers need to make informed

decisions in a competitive market. In

addition, the information enables

shippers and the Commission to

monitor marketplace behavior to detect,

and remedy, anti-competitive behavior.

The regulations at 18 CFR 284.13(b)

and 284.13(d)(1) require each interstate

pipeline to post information about firm

and interruptible service on its internet

website, and in downloadable file

formats. The information required at 18

CFR 284.13(b) includes identification of

the shippers receiving service and

details about contracts for firm service,

capacity release transactions,

1

and

agreements for interruptible service. The

pipeline must maintain access to that

information for a period not less than 90

days from the date of posting. The

regulation at 18 CFR 284.13(d)(1)

requires equal and timely access to

information relevant to the availability

of all transportation services whenever

capacity is scheduled. In addition, each

interstate pipeline must provide

information about the volumes of no-

notice transportation

2

provided. The

regulation and this information

collection activity enable shippers to

release transportation and storage

capacity to other shippers wanting to

obtain capacity. The information results

in reliable capacity information

availability and price data that shippers

need to make informed decisions in a

competitive market and enables

shippers and the Commission to

monitor the market for potential abuses.

The regulation at 18 CFR 284.13(c)

requires each interstate pipeline to file

with the Commission an index of all its

firm transportation and storage

customers under contract on the first

business day of each calendar quarter.

The index of customers also must be

posted on the pipeline’s own internet

website, in downloadable file formats,

and must be made available until the

next quarterly index is posted. The

requirements for the electronic index

can be obtained from the Federal Energy

Regulatory Commission, Division of

Information Services, Public Reference

and Files Maintenance Branch,

Washington, DC 20426.

The regulation at 18 CFR 284.13(d)(2)

requires interstate pipelines to make an

annual filing by March 1 of each year

showing the estimated peak day

capacity of the pipeline’s system, and

the estimated storage capacity and

maximum daily delivery capability of

storage facilities under reasonably

representative operating assumptions

and the respective assignments of that

capacity to the various firm services

provided by the pipeline.

Types of Respondents: Respondents

for this data collection are interstate

pipelines and storage facilities subject to

FERC regulation under the Natural Gas

Act.

Estimate of Annual Burden: The

Commission estimates the annual public

reporting burden

Title: FERC–556, Certification of

Qualifying Facility (QF) Status for a

Small Power Production or

OMB Control No.: 1902–0075.

Type of Request: Three-year extension

of the FERC–556 information collection

requirements with no changes to the

current reporting requirements. The

Commission issued a 60-day notice on

November 30, 2021 (86 FR 67943)

requesting public comments; no

comments were received.

Abstract: Form No. 556 is required to

implement sections 201 and 210 of the

Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of

1978

9

(PURPA). FERC is authorized,

under those sections, to encourage

cogeneration and small power

production and to prescribe such rules

as necessary to carry out the statutory

directives.

A primary statutory objective is

efficient use of energy resources and

facilities by electric utilities. One means

of achieving this goal is to encourage

production of electric power by

cogeneration facilities which makes use

of reject heat associated with

commercial or industrial processes, and

by small power production facilities

which use other wastes and renewable

resources. PURPA encourages the

development of small power production

The Commission staff believes that industry is

similarly situated in terms of wages and benefits.

Therefore, cost estimates are based on FERC’s 2021

average annual wage (and benefits) for a full-time

employee of $180,703 (or $87.00/hour).

13

MW = megawatt.

14

The regulation at 18 CFR 292.203(d) exempts

small power production facilities and cogeneration

facilities from self-certification if they have a net

power production capacity of 1 MW or less.

However, we are disclosing burdens for these filings

because some facilities seek status as qualifying

facilities regardless of their capacity.

15

Commission staff estimates that the industry’s

skill set and cost (for wages and benefits) for FERC–

561 are approximately the same as the

Commission’s average cost. The FERC 2021 average

salary plus benefits for one FERC full-time

equivalent (FTE) is $180,703/year (or $87.00/hour).

facilities and cogeneration facilities that

meet certain technical and corporate

criteria through establishment of various

regulatory benefits. Facilities that meet

these criteria are called Qualifying

Facilities (QFs).

FERC’s regulations in 18 CFR part

292, as relevant here, specify: (a) The

certification procedures which must be

followed by owners or operators of

small power production and

cogeneration facilities; (b) the criteria

which must be met; (c) the information

which must be submitted to FERC in

order to obtain qualifying status; and (d)

the PURPA benefits which are available

to QFs to encourage small power

production and cogeneration.

18 CFR part 292 also exempts QFs

from certain corporate, accounting,

reporting, and rate regulation

requirements of the Federal Power

Act,

10

certain state laws, and the Public

Utility Holding Company Act of 2005.

11

Type of Respondents: Facilities that

are self-certifying their status as a co-

generator or a Small Power Producer

that is submits an application for FERC

certification of their status as a co-

generator.

4. FERC–561

Title: FERC–561, Interlocking

Directorates.

OMB Control No.: 1902–0099.

Type of Request: Three-year extension

of the FERC–561 information collection

requirements with no changes to the

current reporting requirements. The

Commission issued a 60-day notice on

November 30, 2021 (86 FR 67943)

requesting public comments; no

comments were received.

Abstract: The FERC Form 561

responds to the Federal Power Act

(FPA) requirements for annual reporting

of similar types of positions which

public utility officers and directors hold

with financial institutions, insurance

companies, utility equipment and fuel

providers, and with any of an electric

utility’s 20 largest purchasers of electric

energy (i.e., the 20 entities with high

expenditures of electricity). The FPA

specifically defines most of the

information elements in the Form 561

including the information that must be

filed, the required filers, the directive to

make the information available to the

public, and the filing deadline.

The Commission uses the information

required by 18 CFR 131.31 and collected

by the Form 561 to implement the FPA
