SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: FERC–516G, Electric Rates
Schedules and Tariff Filings.
OMB Control No.: 1902–0295.
Type of Request: Three-year revision
and renewal of FERC–516G.
Abstract: In accordance with section
206 of the Federal Power Act (FPA) 1
and 18 CFR 35.28(g)(10), each
Independent System Operator (ISO) and
Regional Transmission Organization
(RTO) must report:
(1) On a monthly basis, total uplift
payments for each transmission zone,
broken out by day and uplift category;
(2) On a monthly basis, total uplift
payments for each resource; and
(3) On a monthly basis, each operatorinitiated commitment, the size of the
commitment, transmission zone,
commitment reason, and commitment
start time.
As originally cleared by OMB, FERC–
516G also included a one-time
requirement that ITOs and RTOs revise
their tariffs. Those tariffs have been
revised, and FERC is requesting removal
of that information collection activity.
Type of Respondents: ISOs and RTOs.
Estimate of Annual Burden 2: The
estimated burden and cost 3 are as
follows:
16 U.S.C. 824e.
Burden is defined as the total time, effort, or
financial resources expended by persons to
generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide
information to or for a Federal agency. For further
explanation of what is included in the information
collection burden, refer to 5 CFR 1320.3.
3 The hourly cost estimate is based on data from
the Bureau of Labor Statistics for three occupational
categories for 2020 involved in the reporting and
recordkeeping requirements. These figures include
salary (https://www.bls.gov/oes/current/oes_
nat.htm) and benefits and are:
• Manager (Occupation Code 110–0000) $97.15/
hour.
• Electrical Engineer (Occupation Code 17–2071):
$70.19/hour.
• File Clerk (Occupation Code 43–4071): $34.79/
hour.
The estimate hourly cost for the reporting
requirements ($67.38) is an average of the cost of
a manager, an electrical engineer, and a file clerk.

Order No. 607 (64 FR 51222,
September 22, 1999) requires
Commission decisional employees, who
make or receive a prohibited or exempt
off-the-record communication relevant
to the merits of a contested proceeding,
to deliver to the Secretary of the
Commission, a copy of the
communication, if written, or a
summary of the substance of any oral
communication.
Prohibited communications are
included in a public, non-decisional file
associated with, but not a part of, the
decisional record of the proceeding.
Unless the Commission determines that
the prohibited communication and any
responses thereto should become a part
of the decisional record, the prohibited
off-the-record communication will not
be considered by the Commission in
reaching its decision. Parties to a
proceeding may seek the opportunity to
respond to any facts or contentions
made in a prohibited off-the-record
communication and may request that
the Commission place the prohibited
communication and responses thereto
in the decisional record. The
Commission will grant such a request
only when it determines that fairness so
requires. Any person identified below as
