Download as PDF wreier-aviles on DSK5TPTVN1PROD with NOTICES 21758 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 70 / Wednesday, April 11, 2012 / Notices disclosure limitation policy, we are only able to make refinery-specific statements about capacity based on data from Form EIA–820, but interest is often in more current data. The public release of monthly crude oil distillation capacity information reported on Form EIA–810 will assist State and local governments and other energy planners that use these data for energy emergency planning. EIA contends that the release of atmospheric crude oil distillation capacity reported on Form EIA–810 will not cause competitive harm because similar data are already publicly released by EIA in the Annual Refinery Capacity Report and refinery-specific capacity data are widely quoted in press reports. 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. (5) Estimated Number of Survey Respondents: Weekly Survey Forms: EIA–800, 141 Respondents; EIA–802, 51 Respondents; EIA–803, 57 Respondents; EIA–804, 104 Respondents; EIA–805, 750 Respondents; EIA–809, 142 Respondents; Monthly Survey Forms: EIA–22M, 150 Respondents; EIA–810, 153 Respondents; EIA–812, 80 Respondents; EIA–813, 167 Respondents; EIA–814, 391 Respondents; EIA–815, 1,476 Respondents; EIA–816, 451 Respondents; EIA–817, 34 Respondents; EIA–819, 203 Respondents; Annual Survey Forms: EIA–820, 148 Respondents. Total respondents for Petroleum Supply Reporting System: 4,498 respondents. Many respondents report on multiple surveys and are counted for each survey they report. For example, the 104 respondents on the weekly Form EIA–804 are also included as a subset of the 391 respondents reporting on the monthly Form EIA–814, so that the two surveys contribute a total of 495 respondents. (6) Annual Estimated Number of Total Responses: Weekly Survey Forms (Respondents × 52): EIA–800, 7,332 Responses; EIA–802, 2,652 Responses; EIA–803, 2,964 Responses; EIA–804, 5,408 Responses; EIA–805, 39,000 Responses; EIA–809, 7,384 Responses; VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:14 Apr 10, 2012 Jkt 226001 Monthly Survey Forms (Respondents × 12): EIA–22M, 1,800 Responses; EIA–810, 1,836 Responses; EIA–812, 960 Responses; EIA–813, 2,004 Responses; EIA–814, 4,692 Responses; EIA–815, 17,712 Responses; EIA–816, 5,412 Responses; EIA–817, 408 Responses; EIA–819, 2,436 Responses; Annual Survey Forms (Respondents × 1): EIA–820, 148 Responses. Total annual responses for Petroleum Supply Reporting System: 102,148 responses annually. EIA estimates that it will receive a total of 102,148 reports annually, not that each survey form will individually be reported 102,148 times annually. (7) Annual Estimated Number of Burden Hours: EIA estimates the following burden hours per response for the Petroleum Supply Reporting System survey forms: Weekly Survey Forms: EIA–800, 1.58 hours; EIA–802, 0.95 hours; EIA–803, 0.5 hours; EIA–804, 1.75 hours; EIA–805, 1.6 hours; EIA– 809, 1 hour; Monthly Survey Forms: EIA–22M, 3 hours; EIA–810, 6 hours; EIA–812, 4.3 hours; EIA–813, 2.5 hours; EIA–814, 2.55 hours; EIA–815, 5 hours; EIA–816, 0.95 hours; EIA–817, 2.25 hours; EIA–819, 1.75 hours; Annual Survey Forms: EIA–820, 2.00 hours. Based on these estimates and the estimates in (6), EIA estimates an annual total of 231,531 burden hours for the Petroleum Supply Reporting System. (8) Annual Estimated Reporting and Recordkeeping Cost Burden: $0. EIA estimates that there are no additional costs to respondents associated with the surveys other than the costs associated with the burden hours.
