Information Collection Costs: The Commission seeks comments on the costs to comply with these requirements. It has projected the average annualized cost to be $515,840 as shown below: Reporting = 4,160 hours @ $120/hour = $499,200. Recordkeeping = 416 hours @ $40/ hour = $16,640. Total Costs = Reporting ($499,200) + Recordkeeping ($16,640) = $515,840. Title: FERC–725E Regional Reliability Standards (WECC). Action: Proposed Collection of Information. OMB Control No.: To be determined. Respondents: Business or other for profit, and/or not for profit institutions. Frequency of Responses: Periodic and intermittent. Necessity of the Information: The eight Reliability Standards would implement the Congressional mandate of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 to develop mandatory and enforceable Reliability Standards to better ensure the reliability of the nation’s BulkPower System. Internal Review: The Commission has reviewed the requirements pertaining to mandatory Reliability Standards for the Bulk-Power System and determined the proposed requirements are necessary to meet the statutory provisions of the Energy Policy Act of 2005. These requirements conform to the Commission’s plan for efficient information collection, communication and management within the energy industry. The Commission has assured itself, by means of internal review, that there is specific, objective support for the burden estimates associated with the information requirements. 132. Interested persons may obtain information on the reporting requirements by contacting: Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426 [Attention: Michael Miller, Office of the Executive Director, Phone: (202) 502– VerDate Aug<31>2005 18:19 Jun 15, 2007 Jkt 211001 8415, fax: (202) 273–0873, e-mail: michael.miller@ferc.gov].

F. Regulatory Flexibility Act Certification 133. The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (RFA) 102 generally requires a description and analysis of rules that will have significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. As indicated above, based on available information regarding NERC’s compliance registry, approximately 180–200 entities will be responsible for compliance with the eight regional Reliability Standards. Most of those entities, i.e., balancing authorities, generator operators, transmission owners and operators, do not fall within the definition of small entities.103 About one-fifth of the approximately 50 loadserving entities that are subject to the approved standards might qualify as small entities. 134. Based on this understanding, the Commission certifies that the approved standards will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Accordingly, no regulatory flexibility analysis is required. The Commission orders: (A) The proposed regional Reliability Standards are hereby approved, as discussed in the body of this order. (B) NERC is directed to submit a compliance filing within 30 days of this order, as discussed in the body of this order. 102 5 U.S.C. 601–612. RFA definition of ‘‘small entity’’ refers to the definition provided in the Small Business Act, which defines a ‘‘small business concern’’ as a business that is independently owned and operated and that is not dominant in its field of operation. See 15 U.S.C. 632 (2000). According to the SBA, a small electric utility is defined as one that has a total electric output of less than four million MWh in the preceding year. 103 The PO 00000 Frm 00032 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Hours per response Total annual hours (C) WECC is directed to develop, for each of its regional Reliability Standards, sanctions that follow NERC guidelines as discussed in the body of this order. (D) WECC is directed to develop modifications to regional Reliability Standards WECC–IRO–STD–006–0 and WECC–TOP–STD–007–0 through its Reliability Standards development process when developing permanent, replacement standards.
