Power Act (FPA).
Section 211 of the FPA authorizes any
electric utility, Federal power marketing
agency, or any other person generating
electric energy for sale or resale to apply
to the Commission for an order
requiring a transmitting utility to
provide transmission services
(including any enlargement of
transmission capacity necessary to
provide such services) to the applicant.
The Commission may issue such order
if it finds that such an order meets the
requirements of section 212,2 and would
otherwise be in the public interest.
Section 213 provides that whenever
an application for such an order
constitutes a ‘‘good faith request’’ for
service, the transmitting utility must
provide the applicant with a ‘‘detailed
written explanation, with specific
reference to the facts and circumstances
of the request, stating (1) the
transmitting utility’s basis for the
proposed rates, charges, terms, and
conditions for such services, and (2) its
analysis of any physical or other
constraints affecting the provision of
such services.’’
The Commission’s regulation at 18
CFR 2.20 identifies 12 components of a
good faith request for transmission and
5 components of a reply to a good faith
request. The regulation at 18 CFR
2.20(a)(2) provides that the Commission
may issue an order requiring a
transmitting utility to provide
transmission services (including any
enlargement of transmission capacity
necessary to provide such services) only
if: (1) an applicant has made a request
for transmission services to the
transmitting utility that would be the
subject of such order at least 60 days
prior to its filing of an application for
such order, and (2) the applicant has,
pursuant to section 213(a) of the FPA,
made a good faith request to a

Good Faith Responses by Transmitting Utilities.
OMB Control No.: 1902-0170.
Type of Request: Three-year extension of the FERC-716 information
collection requirements with no changes to the current reporting

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ 16 U.S.C. 824j, 824k, and 824l.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Section 211 of the FPA authorizes any electric utility, Federal
power marketing agency, or any other person generating electric energy
for sale or resale to apply to the Commission for an order requiring a
transmitting utility to provide transmission services (including any
enlargement of transmission capacity necessary to provide such

finds that such an order meets the requirements of section 212,\2\ and
would otherwise be in the public interest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ Section 212 requires that, subject to appropriate terms and
conditions and just and reasonable rates, access to the electric
transmission system for the purposes of wholesale transactions is
made widely available.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Section 213 provides that whenever an application for such an order
constitutes a ``good faith request'' for service, the transmitting
utility must provide the applicant with a ``detailed written
explanation, with specific reference to the facts and circumstances of
the request, stating (1) the transmitting utility's basis for the
proposed rates, charges, terms, and conditions for such services, and
(2) its analysis of any physical or other constraints affecting the
provision of such services.''
The Commission's regulation at 18 CFR 2.20 identifies 12 components
of a good faith request for transmission and 5 components of a reply to
a good faith request. The regulation at 18 CFR 2.20(a)(2) provides that
the Commission may issue an order requiring a transmitting utility to
provide transmission services (including any enlargement of
transmission capacity necessary to provide such services) only if: (1)
an applicant has made a request for transmission services to the
transmitting utility that would be the subject of such order at least
60 days prior to its filing of an application for such order, and (2)
the applicant has, pursuant to section 213(a) of the FPA, made a good
faith request to a transmitting utility to provide wholesale
transmission services and requests specific rates and charges, and
other terms and conditions.
Type of Respondents: Transmission Requestors and Transmitting
Utilities.

annual burden \3\ and cost \4\ for this information collection as

resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or
disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. For

\4\ The Commission staff estimates that the average respondent
for FERC-576 is similarly situated to the Commission, in terms of

$207,786 (for salary plus benefits), the average hourly cost is
$100/hour.
