SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title: FERC–566 (Annual Report of a Utility’s 20 Largest Purchasers). OMB Control No.: 1902–0114. Type of Request: Three-year extension of the FERC–566 information collection requirements with no changes to the current reporting requirements. Abstract: The Federal Power Act (FPA), as amended by the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 (PURPA), mandates federal oversight and approval of certain electric corporate activities to ensure that neither public nor private interests are adversely affected. Accordingly, the FPA proscribes related information filing requirements to achieve this goal. Such filing requirements are found in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), specifically in 18 CFR Section 131.31, and serve as the basis for the FERC–566. FERC–566 implements FPA requirements that each public utility annually publish a list of the 20 purchasers which purchased the largest annual amounts of electric energy sold by such public utility during any of the three previous calendar years. The public disclosure of this information provides the information necessary to determine whether an interlocked position is with any of the 20 largest purchasers of electric energy. Similar to the Form 561,1 the FPA identifies who must file the FERC–566 report and sets the filing deadline. Type of Respondents: Public utilities. Estimate of Annual Burden: 2 The Commission estimates the annual public reporting burden for the information collection as: FERC–566 (ANNUAL REPORT OF A UTILITY’S 20 LARGEST PURCHASERS) Number of respondents Annual number of responses per respondent Total number of responses Average burden and cost per response 3 Total annual burden hours and total annual cost Cost per respondent ($) (1) (2) (1) * (2) = (3) (4) (3) * (4) = (5) (5) ÷ (1) 300 ......................................... 1 300 4 hrs.; $306 .......................... 1,200 hrs.; $91,800 .............. $306 Comments: Comments are invited on: (1) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Commission, including whether the information will have practical utility; (2) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the burden and cost of the collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility and clarity of the information collection; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology.

On March 28, 2018, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission or FERC) issued its Notice of Application for the Project. Among other things, that notice alerted agencies issuing federal authorizations of the requirement to complete all necessary reviews and to reach a final decision on explanation of what is included in the information collection burden, reference 5 Code of Federal Regulations 1320.3. 3 The estimates for cost per response are derived using the following formula: Average Burden Hours per Response * $76.50 per Hour = Average Cost per Response.
