LANGUANGE (XBRL) FILING
All filings made after September 30, 2021 must be submitted through the eForms
Portal at https://ecollection.ferc.gov/home. 2
Companies filing in the eForms system must have a Company Identifier (CID).
Persons filing in the eForms system must be eRegistered with FERC at
https://ferconline.ferc.gov/. If a Company has an existing CID, the person filing must be
assigned as an Agent by an Account Manager. FERC Online Support at
[email protected] can provide the names of the Account Managers. Additional
information on the XBRL taxonomies and the filing requirements can be found at
https://www.ferc.gov/filing-forms/eforms-refresh. Once a company has been assigned a
CID, it does not need to obtain a new one for subsequent filings.
Companies who change names must make appropriate filings in eTariff and
company registration before making name changes on FERC Form No. 60 filings.

The Commission’s regulations require FERC Form No. 60 filers to submit the
reports electronically. In contrast, FERC-61 reports are not submitted electronically;
