The final rule at Docket No. RM22-8-000 revises the information requirements applicable to prospective applicants and applicants who seek authorization under section 3 of the Natural Gas Act to site, construct, expand, or operate an LNG terminal. The revisions are intended to update the Commission’s regulations regarding engineering and design materials related to natural hazards and reduce confusion related to the preparation and filing of applications. In the Notice of Proposed Rule (NOPR) in Docket No. RM22-8-000, FERC-539A and FERC-577A were temporary placeholder designations for FERC-539 and FERC-577, respectively. The temporary placeholder designations were necessary because only one request is allowed at a time for any information collection, and requests were pending at OMB for both FERC-539 and FERC-577. As part of its review of the information collections associated with the NOPR in Docket No. RM22-9-000, OMB issued “comment and continue” types of decision for FERC-539A. OMB also assigned new control number (i.e., 1902-0326 and 1902-0327) for FERC-539A and FERC-577A. The previously pending requests for FERC-539 and FERC-577 have been approved and this information collection request seeks revision of those collections in connection with the Final Rule in Docket No. RM22-8. In the metadata in ROCIS for FERC-577, we are listing the NOPR as a 60-day notice and the Final Rule as a 30-day notice (as well as a Final Rule) so that we may characterize our request as a “regular” type of request. ROCIS allowed us to characterize our request for FERC-539 as "regular" without taking those measures.
