I. Background
18:36 May 05, 2009
II. Current Actions
EIA will be requesting a three-year
extension of approval to continue
collecting nine petroleum marketing
surveys (Forms EIA–14, 182, 782A,
782B, 782C, 821, 856, 863, 877, 878, and
888) with no substantive changes to the
survey forms or instructions.
III. Request for Comments
The Federal Energy Administration
Act of 1974 (15 U.S.C. 761 et seq.) and
the DOE Organization Act (42 U.S.C.
7101 et seq.) require the 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,
VerDate Nov<24>2008
production, demand, technology, and
related economic and statistical
information. This information is used to
assess the adequacy of energy resources
to meet near and longer term domestic
demands.
The EIA, as part of its effort to comply
with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.), provides
the general public and other Federal
agencies with opportunities to comment
on collections of energy information
conducted by or in conjunction with the
EIA. Also, the EIA will later seek
approval for this collection by the Office
of Management and Budget (OMB)
under Section 3507(a) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995.
EIA’s petroleum marketing survey
forms collect volumetric and price
information needed for determining the
supply of and demand for crude oil and
refined petroleum products. These
surveys provide a basic set of data
pertaining to the structure, efficiency,
and behavior of petroleum markets.
These data are published by the EIA on
its Web site, https://www.eia.doe.gov, as
well as in publications such as the
Monthly Energy Review, Annual Energy
Review, Petroleum Marketing Monthly,
Petroleum Marketing Annual, Week
Petroleum Status Report, and the
International Energy Outlook. EIA also
maintains a 24-hour telephone hotline
number, (202) 586–6966, for the public
to obtain retail price estimates for onhighway diesel fuel and motor gasoline.
Please refer to the proposed forms and
instructions for more information about
the purpose, who must report, when to
report, where to submit, the elements to
be reported, detailed instructions,
provisions for confidentiality, and uses
(including possible nonstatistical uses)
of the information. For instructions on
obtaining materials, see the ‘‘For Further
Information Contact’’ section.
