Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 76 / Thursday, April 21, 2005 / Notices
extension of the expiration date, with no
changes to the existing collection. The
information filed with the Commission
is mandatory.
4. Necessity of the Collection of
Information: Submission of the
information is necessary to enable the
Commission to carry out its
responsibilities in implementing the
statutory provisions of the Department
of Energy Organization Act, and
Executive Order No. 12009, 42 FR 46277
(September 13, 1977). The Commission
has authority over interstate pipelines as
stated in the Interstate Commerce Act,
49 U.S.C. § 6501 et al. As part of the
information necessary for the
subsequent investigation and review of
an oil pipeline company’s proposed
depreciation rates, the pipeline
companies are required to provide
public service life data as part of their
data submission if the proposed
depreciation rates are based on the
remaining physical life calculations.
This service life data is submitted on
FERC Form 73.
The scope of the Commission’s
jurisdiction over oil pipelines includes
the authority to regulate their rates and
charges for transportation of oil in
interstate commerce, and the authority
to establish valuations. Oil pipeline
companies are required to submit
depreciation information pursuant to 1–
8(b)(2) and 1–8(b)(3) of the General
Instructions found at 18 CFR Part 352 of
the Commission’s regulations. These
instructions require oil pipeline carriers
to compute percentage rate studies for
their depreciable property accounts, and
to maintain records as to the service life
and net salvage value of their property
and property retirements.
The Commission uses the information
submitted on FERC Form 73 to conduct
depreciation rate investigations of oil
pipelines. The Commission also uses
the information to determine
appropriate oil pipeline service lives
and book depreciation rates. Oil
pipeline companies use book
depreciation rates to compute the
depreciation portion of their operating
expenses when determining their cost of
service. The Commission implements
these requirements in 18 CFR 357.3 of
its regulations.
5. Respondent Description: The
respondent universe currently
comprises 2 companies (on average per
year) subject to the Commission’s
jurisdiction
6. Estimated Burden: 80 total hours, 2
respondents (average per year), 1
response per respondent, and 40 hours

Act, Pub. L. 95–91, 42 sections 7155 and
