In another adjustment, the number of hours for Oil Rates and Tariff Filings will decrease from 7.8 hours to 7 hours per respondent due to the hour allocation going to the second line (Depreciation Studies) in the table below. Additionally, since the previous renewal, the number of respondents to Oil Rates and Tariff filings also increased from 219 to 258 based on the number of filings received by the Commission. The overall revised burden estimates result to an increase to 280 (+61) respondents, 796 (+86) responses, and 6,298 hours (+760). The Commission estimates the annual public reporting burden and cost 3 for the FERC–550 information collection as follows: FERC–550: OIL PIPELINE RATES—TARIFF FILINGS AND DEPRECIATION STUDIES Number of respondents Annual number of responses per respondent Total number of responses 4 Average burden hrs. & cost ($) per response Total annual burden hours & total annual cost ($) Cost per respondent ($) (1) (2) (1) * (2) = (3) (4) (3) * (4) = (5) (5) ÷ (1) Oil Rates and Tariff Filings.

Studies previously was included under Oil Rates and Tariff Filings in the OMB inventory under OMB Control No. 1902–0089. However, for a more accurate estimate of burden a new row was added for Depreciation Studies (18 CFR 347.1). This new row will properly account for the differences in burden hours and type of filing with the Oil Rates and Tariff filings (18 CFR parts 341 through 348). 5 Depreciation 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.
