    The Commission is now requesting that OMB approve a three-year 
extension of the expiration date, with no changes to the existing

    4. Necessity of the Collection of Information: Submission of the 
information is necessary for the Commission to carry out its 
responsibilities in implementing the statutory provisions of sections 
311 and 312 of the Natural Gas Policy Act (NGPA) and Section 7 of the 
Natural Gas Act (NGA). The reporting requirements for implementing 
these provisions are contained in 18 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 
Part 284. Under Part 284 of the Commission's regulations non-interstate 
pipelines that perform transportation service under NGPA section 311 
(intrastate pipelines) or blanket certificates issued under section 7 
of the NGA are required to file an annual report containing specific

reporting year. Interstate pipelines performing unbundled sales service 
under a blanket certificate granted under Part 284 of the regulations 
are required to file an annual report detailing specific information on 
each transaction initiated during the reporting year.
    In Order No. 644 (68 FR 66323, November 26, 2003), the Commission 
amended its regulations regarding blanket certificates for unbundled 
gas sales services held by interstate natural gas pipelines and blanket 
marketing certificates held by persons making sales for resale of gas 
at negotiated rates in interstate commerce. The Commission required 
that pipelines and all sellers for resale adhere to a code of conduct 
with respect to gas sales.
    The information collected in these reports is used by the 
Commission to monitor the jurisdictional transportation activities of 
intrastate, Hinshaw pipelines and the unbundled sales activities of 
interstate natural gas pipelines and persons holding blanket marketing 
certificates. The Commission also uses the information to ensure the 
integrity of the gas sales market that remains under the Commission's 
jurisdiction. These are mandatory filing and recordkeeping requirements 
in the Code of Federal Regulations under 18 CFR 284.126, 284.281-
284.288 and 284.401-284.403.
    5. Respondent Description: The respondent universe currently 
comprises 222 filings (average per year) subject to the Commission's 
jurisdiction. Of the 222, 77 filings are for the transportation report 
under 284.126.
    6. Estimated Burden: 1,290 total hours, 222 respondents (average 
per year), 1 response per respondent, and 11.2 hours per response 
(average) for the two filings.
    7. Estimated Cost Burden to Respondents: 1,290 hours / 2080 hours 
per year x $108,558 per year = $44,154 (reporting) + $477,300 (22 x 
$2150) (recordkeeping) = $521,145. The cost per respondent is equal to 
$2,349.
