SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The information collected under the requirements of FERC–542 ‘‘Gas Pipeline Rates: Rate Tracking’’ (OMB No. 1902–0070) is used by the Commission to implement the statutory provisions of Title IV of the Natural Gas Policy Act (NGPA), 15 U.S.C. 3301– 3432, and Sections 4, 5 and 16 of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) (P.L. 75–688) (15 U.S.C. 717–717w). These statutes empower the Commission to collect natural gas transmission cost information from interstate natural gas transporters for the purpose of verifying that these costs, which are passed on to pipeline customers, are just and reasonable. Interstate natural gas pipeline companies are required by the Commission to track their transportation-associated costs to allow for the Commission’s review and, where appropriate, approve the pass-through of these costs to pipeline customers. These FERC–542 tracking filings are accountings of the cost of (1) Research, development, and deployment expenditures; (2) annual charge adjustments; and (3) periodic rate adjustments. ACTION: The Commission is requesting a three-year extension of the FERC–542 reporting requirements, with the burden and cost estimates published in its August 2010 Notice. There is no change to the reporting requirements. Burden Statement: The public reporting burden for this collection is estimated as: Annual number of respondents Number of responses per respondent Average burden hours per response Total annual burden hours (1) FERC data collection (2) (3) (1) × (2) × (3) 95 3.5 40 srobinson on DSKHWCL6B1PROD with NOTICES FERC–542 ...................................................... The FERC’s estimated cost burden to respondents is $881,598 (13,300 hours/ 2080 hours 1 times $137,874 2). The cost per respondent is $9,280. The reporting burden includes the total time, effort, or financial resources expended to generate, maintain, retain, disclose, or provide the information including: (1) Reviewing instructions; (2) developing, acquiring, installing, and utilizing technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, verifying, processing, maintaining, disclosing and providing information; (3) adjusting the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements; (4) training personnel to respond to a collection of information; (5) searching data sources; (6) completing and reviewing the collection of information; and (7) transmitting, or otherwise disclosing the information. The estimate of cost for respondents is based upon salaries for professional and clerical support, as well as direct and indirect overhead costs. Direct costs include all costs directly attributable to providing this information, such as administrative costs and the cost for information technology. Indirect or overhead costs are costs incurred by an organization in support of its mission. These costs apply to activities which benefit the whole organization rather than any one particular function or activity. Comments are invited on: (1) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Commission, including whether the information will have practical utility; (2) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses.
