SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Cash Management Agreements.
OMB Control No.: 1902–0267.
Type of Request: Three-year extension
of the FERC–604 information collection
requirements with no changes to the
current reporting requirements.
Abstract: This collection of
information is authorized by the
following statutory provisions:
• Sections 8 and 10 of the Natural Gas
Act (15 U.S.C. 717g and 717i);
• Sections 301 and 304 of the Federal
Power Act (16 U.S.C. 835 and 825c); and

PO 00000

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

• Sections 20(1) and 20(5) of the
Interstate Commerce Act (49 App.
U.S.C. 20(1) and 20(5)).
Cash management or ‘‘money pool’’
programs typically concentrate
affiliates’ cash assets in joint accounts
for the purpose of providing financial
flexibility and lowering the cost of
borrowing. In a 2002 investigation,
FERC staff found that balances in cash
management programs affecting FERCregulated entities totaled approximately
$16 billion. Additionally, other
investigations revealed large transfers of
funds (amounting to more than $1
billion) between regulated pipeline
affiliates and non-regulated parents
whose financial conditions were
precarious. The Commission found that
these and other fund transfers and the
enormous (mostly unregulated) pools of
money in cash management programs
could detrimentally affect regulated
rates.
To protect customers and promote
transparency, the Commission issued
Order No. 634–A (2003) requiring
entities to formalize in writing and file
with the Commission their cash
management agreements.1 At that time,
the Commission obtained OMB
clearance for this new reporting
requirement under the FERC–555
information collection (OMB Control
No. 1902–0098). Now, the Commission
includes these reporting requirements
for cash management agreements under
the FERC–604 information collection
(OMB Control No. 1902–0267). The
Commission implements these reporting
requirements in accordance with 18
CFR 141.500, 260.400, and 357.5.
Type of Respondents: Public utilities,
natural gas companies, and oil pipeline
companies.
Estimate of Annual Burden: 2 The
Commission estimates the annual public
reporting burden for the information
collection as:
1 Regulation of Cash Management Practices,
Order No. 634–A, 105 FERC ¶ 61098, at PP 39 and
74 (2003).
2 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. See 5 CFR
1320 for additional information on the definition of
information collection burden.
