Section 206 of the Federal Power Act (FPA), 16 U.S.C. 824e, obligates the Commission to remedy unjust, unreasonable, and unduly discriminatory or preferential rates, terms, and conditions of transmission service. The FERC 516 collection contains the information collection requirements for developing, submitting, and reporting tariff information to the Commission.
In this non-substantive change to the FERC-516 information collection to rollover the burden from a related information collection, the FERC-732. The FERC-732 has been an approved as information collection number since OMB approved the collection on January 24, 2007. Upon Commission staff review, the Commission has determined that the FERC-732: Electric Rate Schedules and Tariffs: Long-Term Firm Transmission Rights in Organized Electricity Markets belongs under the FERC-516 that encapsulates electric tariff filings. Upon OMB approval of this non-substantive update, the Commission plans to discontinue the FERC-732 collection.
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) is submitting a non-substantive change to the FERC-516 information collection to rollover the burden from a related information collection, the FERC-732. The FERC-732 has been an approved as information collection number since OMB approved the collection on January 24, 2007. Upon Commission staff review, the Commission has determined that the FERC-732: Electric Rate Schedules and Tariffs: Long-Term Firm Transmission Rights in Organized Electricity Markets belongs under the FERC-516 that encapsulates electric tariff filings.
The FERC-732 contains the total burden of 1 response and 1,180 hours which represents a placeholder burden for Regional Transmission Organizations (RTOs), Independent Service Operators (ISOs), independent transmission providers, or other independent transmission organizations to make available long-term firm transmission rights to load-serving entities (LSEs). The requirement has been met by the current jurisdictional entities, but the Commission requires all transmission organizations that are approved after January 29, 2007 to be in compliant with the requirements in 18 CFR 42.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
