Abstract: The Commission collects

Form No. 73, Oil Pipeline Data for
Depreciation Analysis, and 18 CFR part
347.

requesting approval for new or changed
depreciation rates of an oil pipeline; or
(2) being directed by the Commission to
file the service life data during an
investigation of its book depreciation
rates.
Type of Respondent: Oil pipeline
companies.
