Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission
[Docket No. RM93–11–000]
Notice of Annual Change in the
Producer Price Index for Finished
Goods; Revisions to Oil Pipeline
Regulations Pursuant to the Energy
Policy Act of 1992
The Commission’s regulations include
a methodology for oil pipelines to
change their rates through use of an
index system that establishes ceiling
levels for such rates. The Commission
bases the index system, found at 18 CFR
342.3, on the annual change in the
Producer Price Index for Finished
Goods (PPI–FG), plus one point two
three percent (PPI–FG + 1.23). The
Commission determined in an Order
Establishing Index Level,1 issued
December 17, 2015, that PPI–FG + 1.23
is the appropriate oil pricing index
factor for pipelines to use for the fiveyear period commencing July 1, 2016.
The regulations provide that the
Commission will publish annually, an
index figure reflecting the final change
in the PPI–FG, after the Bureau of Labor
Statistics publishes the final PPI–FG in
May of each calendar year. The annual

average PPI–FG index figures were
191.9 for 2016 and 198.0 for 2017.2
Thus, the percent change (expressed as
a decimal) in the annual average PPI–FG
from 2016 to 2017, plus 1.23 percent, is
positive 0.044087.3 Oil pipelines must
multiply their July 1, 2017, through June
30, 2018, index ceiling levels by
positive 1.044087 4 to compute their
index ceiling levels for July 1, 2018,
through June 30, 2019, in accordance
with 18 CFR 342.3(d). For guidance in
calculating the ceiling levels for each 12
month period beginning January 1,
