Download as PDF 31198 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 80 / Wednesday, April 24, 2024 / Notices No. 760,1 to detect potential anticompetitive or manipulative behavior or ineffective market rules by requiring Regional Transmission Organizations (RTO) and Independent System Operators (ISO) to electronically submit, on a continuous basis, data relating to physical and virtual offers and bids, market awards, resource outputs, marginal cost estimates, shift factors, financial transmission rights, internal bilateral contracts, uplift, and interchange pricing. Although provision was made by the Commission that market monitoring units (MMUs) may provide datasets, all data for this collection has (and is expected to continue to) come from each RTO or ISO and not the MMUs. Therefore, any associated burden is counted as a burden on RTOs and ISOs. While the ongoing delivery of data under FERC–921 is continuous and routine, each RTO or ISO makes sporadic changes to its individual market with Commission approval. When those changes occur, the RTO or ISO may need to change the data being routinely sent to the Commission to ensure compliance with Order No. 760. Such changes typically require respondents to alter the ongoing delivery of data under FERC–921. Type of Respondent: Regional Transmission Organizations (RTOs) and Independent System Operators (ISOs). Estimate of Annual Burden: 2 The Commission estimates the total annual burden and cost for this information collection by calculating the total hourly cost (including both mean wages and benefits) of three occupations and then by multiplying that total hourly cost by Category Number of respondents Annual number of responses per respondent Total number of responses Average burden & cost per response Total annual burden hours & cost Annual cost per respondent ($) (1) (2) (1) * (2) = (3) (4) (3) * (4) = (5) (5) ÷ (1) 52 hrs.; $4,577.56. 480 hrs.; $42,254.40. 312 hrs.; $27,465.36. 2,880 hrs.; $253,526,40. $4,577.56 ........................ 3,192 hrs.; $280,991.76. 46,831.96 6 1 46 .................................. 6 1 6 Total .................................................................................. 6 2 12 Ongoing Electronic Delivery of Data ........................................

The total hourly cost applied in this calculation is $88.03, calculated as the sum of weighted mean hourly wages and benefits of the following occupations: 3 • Computer Systems Analysts (Occupational Code: 15–1211): $56.57 (base hourly wage) ÷ 70.7% (benefits) = $80.01 × 75 percent of the time needed for each response = $60.0075; • Legal (Occupational Code: 23– 0000): $104.10 (base hourly wage) ÷ 70.7% (benefits) = $147.24 × 12.5 percent of the time needed for each response = $18.405; and • Database Administrators (Occupational Code: 15–1242): $54.40 (base hourly wage) ÷ 70.7% (benefits) = $76.94 × 12.5 percent of the time needed for each response = $9.6175. 1 Enhancement of Electricity Market Surveillance and Analysis through Ongoing Electronic Delivery of Data from Regional Transmission Organizations and Independent System Operators, Order No. 760, 139 FERC ¶ 61,053 (2012) 2 ‘‘Burden’’ is 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.

VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:48 Apr 23, 2024 Jkt 262001 Dated: April 18, 2024. Debbie-Anne A. Reese, Acting Secretary. ACTION: 42,254.40 Notice. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has submitted an information collection request (ICR), Air Emission Standards for Tanks, Surface Impoundments and Containers (EPA ICR Number 1593.12, OMB Control Number 2060–0318) to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act. This is a proposed extension of the ICR, which is currently approved through April 30, 2024. Public comments were previously requested via the Federal Register on December 11, 2023 during a 60-day comment period. This notice allows for 30 days for public comments.

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). DATES: 3 Costs (for wages and benefits) are based on the mean wage estimate by the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ (BLS) Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics (OEWS) program from May 2023 (https://www.bls.gov/oes/current/naics2_22.htm.) and benefits information for private industry workers (https://www.bls.gov/news.release/ ecec.nr0.htm.) 4 Each RTO/ISO electronically submits data daily. To match with past filings, we are considering the collection of daily responses to be a single response. 5 The hour burden associated with a ‘‘Data Delivery Change Over the Year’’ varies considerably based on the significance of the specific change; therefore, the estimate is intended to reflect the incremental burden for an average change. Based on historical patterns, staff estimates there to be about one and a half changes of this nature per RTO or ISO per year. Based on our estimate that the total time required for a single change is 320 hours, and there are, on average, 1.5 changes annually, the total time for this category of response is 480 hours (1.5 × 320 hours).
