SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title: FERC–585 (Reporting of Electric Energy Shortages and Contingency Plans Under PURPA 1 Section 206). OMB Control No.: 1902–0138. Type of Request: Three-year extension of the FERC–585 information collection requirements with no changes to the current reporting requirements. Abstract: The Commission uses the information collected under the requirements of FERC–585 ‘‘Reporting of Electric Energy Shortages and Contingency Plans under Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1979’’ to implement the statutory provisions of Section 206 of PURPA. Section 206 of PURPA amended the Federal Power Act (FPA) by adding a new subsection (g) to section 202, under which the Commission, by rule, was to require each public utility to report to the Commission and any appropriate state regulatory authority: • Any anticipated shortages of electric energy or capacity which would affect the utility’s capability to serve its wholesale customers; and • a contingency plan that would outline what circumstances might give rise to such occurrences. In Order No. 575,2 the Commission modified the reporting requirements in 18 CFR 294.101(b) to provide that, if a public utility includes in its rates schedule, provisions that during electric energy and capacity shortages: • It will treat firm power wholesale customers without undue discrimination or preference; and • it will report any modifications to its contingency plan for accommodating shortages within 15 days to the appropriate state regulatory agency and to the affected wholesale customers, then the utility need not file with the Commission an additional statement of contingency plan for accommodating such shortages. This revision merely changed the reporting mechanism; the public utility’s contingency plan would be located in its filed rate rather than in a separate document. In Order No. 659,3 the Commission modified the reporting requirements in 18 CFR 294.101(e) to provide that the means by which public utilities must comply with the requirements to report shortages and anticipated shortages is to submit this information electronically using the Office of Electric Reliability’s pager system at emergency@ferc.gov in lieu of submitting an original and two copies with the Secretary of the Commission. The Commission uses the information to evaluate and formulate an appropriate option for action in the event an unanticipated shortage is reported and/or materializes. Without this information, the Commission and State agencies would be unable to: • Examine and approve or modify utility actions; • prepare a response to anticipated disruptions in electric energy; and/or • ensure equitable treatment of all public utility customers under the shortage situations. The Commission implements these filing requirements in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) under 18 CFR part 294.101. Type of Respondents: Public Utilities. Estimate of Annual Burden: 4 The Commission estimates the annual public reporting burden for the information collection as: REPORTING OF ELECTRIC ENERGY SHORTAGES AND CONTINGENCY PLANS UNDER PURPA Annual number of responses per respondent Total number of responses Average burden & cost per response 5 Total annual burden hours & total annual cost Cost per respondent (1) sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with NOTICES Number of respondents (2) (1) * (2) = (3) (4) (3) * (4) = (5) (5) ÷ (1) 73 hrs.; $5,585 .................... 73 hrs.; $5,585 .................... 1 .................................. 1 1 1 PURPA = Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1979 (Pub. L. 95–617, 92 Statute 3117), enacted 11/9/1978. 2 Final Rule in Docket RM92–12–000, issued on 1/13/1995.
