ACTION: Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection; Comment Request. rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES AGENCY: SUMMARY: EIA is soliciting comments on a proposal to conduct a new survey titled ‘‘Report of Refinery Outages.’’ DATES: Comments must be filed by April 28, 2008. If you anticipate difficulty in submitting comments within that period, contact the person listed below as soon as possible. VerDate Aug<31>2005 18:23 Feb 27, 2008 Jkt 214001 Send comments to Ms. Joanne Shore. To ensure receipt of the comments by the due date, submission by e-mail to Joanne.Shore@eia.doe.gov is recommended. Ms. Shore may be contacted by telephone at 202–586– 4677 or facsimile at 202–586–9739; however, e-mail is the preferred medium for correspondence. The mailing address is: Petroleum Division (Attn: Comments on Report of Refinery Outages), EI–42, Forrestal Building, U.S. Department of Energy, Washington, DC 20585. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Requests for additional information should be directed to Ms. Shore using the contact information listed above. An example of the information that may be reported on refinery outages is available on the EIA Web site at https:// www.eia.doe.gov/pub/oil_gas/ petroleum/survey_forms/eia810-part6proposed-example.pdf. The example is also available from Ms. Shore at the addresses listed above. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: ADDRESSES: I. Background II. Current Actions III. Request for Comments I. Background The Federal Energy Administration Act of 1974 (Pub. L. 93–275, 15 U.S.C. 761 et seq.) and the DOE Organization Act (Pub. L. 95–91, 42 U.S.C. 7101 et seq.) require EIA to carry out a centralized, comprehensive, and unified energy information program. This program collects, evaluates, assembles, analyzes, and disseminates information on energy resource reserves, production, demand, technology, and related economic and statistical information. This information is used to assess the adequacy of energy resources to meet near- and long-term domestic demands. The EIA, as part of its effort to comply with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35), provides the general public and other Federal agencies with opportunities to comment on collections of energy information conducted by or in conjunction with EIA. Any comments received help EIA to prepare surveys that maximize the utility of the information collected, and to assess the impact of collection requirements on the public. Also, after considering any comments received, EIA may seek approval by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under Section 3507(a) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The purpose of the ‘‘Report of Refinery Outages’’ would be to collect data for each affected refinery unit PO 00000 Frm 00007 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 10745 regarding the unit type, the outage type (scheduled or unscheduled), the outage timing (beginning and ending dates), unit capacity, and the estimated effects of outages on output. The information would be collected as a new Part 6 on EIA’s ‘‘Monthly Refinery Report’’ (Form EIA–810). EIA would propose to collect both scheduled and unscheduled outage information for the report month, and scheduled outage information for the subsequent 12 months. For example, a company reporting data for February (Form EIA–810 for February is due to EIA by March 20 and statistics based on the reported data are published in April), would include information on both scheduled and unscheduled outages that occurred in February as well as information on outages scheduled for March 2008 through February 2009. Information to be reported would be limited to a minimum outage length, such as any outage lasting 5 days or more. The units for reporting would be: (1) Crude Distillation Unit, (2) Reformer Unit, (3) Fluid Catalytic Cracking Unit, (4) Alkylation Unit, (5) Distillate Hydrocracking Unit, (6) Gas Oil Hydrocracking Unit, (7) Residual Fuel Oil Hydrocracking Unit, (8) Gasoline Hydrotreater Unit, (9) Distillate Fuel Oil Hydrotreater Unit, and (10) Coking Unit. EIA also proposes to require estimates of the outage impacts on net product output for gasoline, gasoline blending components, jet fuel, kerosene, and other distillates. Product impacts may result from several units being out at the same time. As a result, reporting of impacts might have to be organized by grouping overlapping unit outages into a single Outage Event, with estimated product impacts being recorded for the event in total. Generally, if unit outages did not overlap, each unit outage would be a separate event with its own product impacts. An example of the type of information that might be collected is shown on EIA’s Web site at https:// www.eia.doe.gov/pub/oil_gas/ petroleum/survey_forms/eia810-part6proposed-example.pdf. Survey respondents would include all current EIA–810 respondents; i.e., the operators of all operating and idle petroleum refineries located in the 50 States, District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, and other U.S. possessions. Response to the survey would be mandatory pursuant to the Federal Energy Administration Act of 1974, Public Law 93–275. The information collected would be processed and then disseminated in EIA’s Petroleum Supply Monthly. The information would also be used in E:\FR\FM\28FEN1.SGM 28FEN1
