SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: FERC–732, Electric Rate
Schedules and Tariffs: Long-Term Firm
Transmission Rights in Organized
Electricity Markets.
OMB Control No.: 1902–0245.
Type of Request: Three-year extension
of the FERC–732 information collection
requirements with no changes to the
reporting requirements.
Abstract: 18 CFR part 42 provides the
reporting requirements of FERC–732 as
they pertain to long-term transmission
rights. To implement section 1233 1 of
the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct
2005),2 the Commission requires each
transmission organization that is a
public utility with one or more
organized electricity markets to make
available long-term firm transmission
rights that satisfy each of the
Commission’s guidelines.
The FERC–732 regulations require
that transmission organizations (that are
public utilities with one or more
organized electricity markets) choose
one of two ways to file:
• File tariff sheets making long-term
firm transmission rights available that
are consistent with each of the
guidelines established by FERC
• File an explanation describing how
their existing tariffs already provide
long-term firm transmission rights that
are consistent with the guidelines.
Additionally, the Commission
requires each transmission organization
to make its transmission planning and
expansion procedures and plans
available to the public.
FERC–732 enables the Commission to
exercise its wholesale electric rate and
electric power transmission oversight
and enforcement responsibilities in
accordance with the FPA, the
Department of Energy Organization Act
(DOE Act), and EPAct 2005.
Type of Respondents: Public utility
with one or more organized electricity
markets.
Estimate of Annual Burden: 3 The
Commission estimates the annual public
reporting burden for the information
collection as:
