SUMMARY:
Publication of Project Cost Limits
Under Blanket Certificates
Docket No. RM81–19–000
Order of the Director, OEP
February 9, 2012.
Section 157.208(d) of the
Commission’s Regulations provides for
project cost limits applicable to
construction, acquisition, operation and
miscellaneous rearrangement of
facilities (Table I) authorized under the
blanket certificate procedure (Order No.
234, 19 FERC ¶ 61,216). Section
157.215(a) specifies the calendar year
dollar limit which may be expended on
underground storage testing and
development (Table II) authorized under
the blanket certificate. Section
157.208(d) requires that the ‘‘limits
specified in Tables I and II shall be
adjusted each calendar year to reflect
the ‘GDP implicit price deflator’
published by the Department of
Commerce for the previous calendar
year.’’
Pursuant to § 375.308(x)(1) of the
Commission’s Regulations, the authority
for the publication of such cost limits,
as adjusted for inflation, is delegated to
the Director of the Office of Energy
Projects. The cost limits for calendar
year 2012, as published in Table I of
§ 157.208(d) and Table II of § 157.215(a),
are hereby issued.

This final rule is effective February
15. The provisions of 5 U.S.C. 804
regarding Congressional review of Final
Rules does not apply to the Final Rule
because the rule concerns agency
procedure and practice and will not
substantially affect the rights or
obligations of non-agency parties. The
Final Rule merely updates amounts
published in the Code of Federal
Regulations to reflect the Department of
Commerce’s latest annual determination
of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP)
implicit price deflator, a mathematical
updating required by the Commission’s
existing regulations.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Patient Protection and Affordable
Care Act, Public Law 111–148, was
enacted on March 23, 2010; the Health
Care and Education Reconciliation Act
of 2010, Public Law 111–152, was
enacted on March 30, 2010 (collectively,
the Affordable Care Act). The Affordable
Care Act reorganizes, amends, and adds
to the provisions of part A of title XXVII
of the Public Health Service Act (PHS
Act) relating to group health plans and
health insurance issuers in the group
and individual markets. The Affordable
Care Act adds section 715(a)(1) to the
Employee Retirement Income Security
Act (ERISA) and section 9815(a)(1) to
the Internal Revenue Code (Code) to
incorporate the provisions of part A of
title XXVII of the PHS Act into ERISA
and the Code, and make them
applicable to group health plans.
Section 2713 of the PHS Act, as added
by the Affordable Care Act and
incorporated into ERISA and the Code,
requires that non-grandfathered group
health plans and health insurance
issuers offering group or individual
health insurance coverage provide
benefits for certain preventive health
services without the imposition of cost
sharing. These preventive health
services include, with respect to
women, preventive care and screening
provided for in the comprehensive
guidelines supported by the Health
Resources and Services Administration
(HRSA) that were issued on August 1,
2011 (HRSA Guidelines).1 As relevant
here, the HRSA Guidelines require
coverage, without cost sharing, for ‘‘[a]ll
Food and Drug Administration [(FDA)]
approved contraceptive methods,
sterilization procedures, and patient
education and counseling for all women
with reproductive capacity,’’ as
prescribed by a provider. Except as
discussed below, non-grandfathered
group health plans and health insurance
issuers are required to provide coverage
consistent with the HRSA Guidelines,
without cost sharing, in plan years (or,
