SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title: FERC–923, Communication of Operational Information between Natural Gas Pipelines and Electric Transmission Operators. OMB Control No.: 1902–0265. Type of Request: Three-year extension of the information collection requirements described below with no changes to the current reporting requirements. Abstract: In 2013, the Commission revised its regulations to provide explicit authority to interstate natural gas pipelines and public utilities that own, operate, or control facilities used for the transmission of electric energy in interstate commerce to voluntarily share non-public, operational information with each other for the purpose of promoting reliable service and operational planning on either the pipeline’s or public utility’s system. This helped ensure the reliability of natural gas pipeline and public utility transmission services by permitting transmission operators to share with each other the information that they deem necessary to promote the reliability and integrity of their systems. FERC removed actual or perceived prohibitions to the information sharing and communications between industry entities. The information shared is not submitted to FERC. Rather, the nonpublic information is shared voluntarily between industry entities. FERC does not prescribe the content, medium, format, or frequency for the information sharing and communications. Those decisions are made by the industry entities, depending on their needs and the situation. Type of Respondent: Natural gas pipelines and public utilities. Estimate of Annual Burden: 1 The Commission estimates the annual public reporting burden and cost 2 for FERC– 923 as: FERC—923—COMMUNICATION OF OPERATIONAL INFORMATION BETWEEN NATURAL GAS PIPELINES AND ELECTRIC TRANSMISSION OPERATORS Number of respondents Annual number of responses per respondent Total number of responses Average burden hrs. & cost ($) per response Total annual burden hrs. & total annual cost ($) Cost per respondent ($) (1) (2) (1) * (2) = (3) (4) (3) * (4) = (5) (5) ÷ (1) 1 155 12 1,860 0.5 hrs.; $45.50 ........... 930 hrs.; $84,630 ........ $546 2 191 12 2,292 0.5 hrs.; $45.50 ........... 1,146 hrs.; $104,286 ... 546 ........................ ........................ 4,152 ..................................... 2,076 hrs.; $188,916 ... ........................

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.
