SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
information collection request contains:
(1) OMB No.: 1905–0208;
(2) Information Collection Request
Title: Quarterly Electricity Imports and
Exports Report;
(3) Type of Request: Three-year
extension with change;
(4) Purpose: Form EIA–111 collects
U.S. electricity import and export data
on a quarterly basis. The data are used
to measure the flow of electricity into
and out of the United States. The import
and export data are reported by U.S.
purchasers, sellers and transmitters of
wholesale electricity, including persons
authorized by Order to export electric
energy from the United States to foreign
countries, persons authorized by
Presidential Permit to construct,
operate, maintain, or connect electric
power transmission lines that cross the
U.S. international border, and U.S.
Balancing Authorities that are directly
interconnected with foreign Balancing
Authorities. Such entities report
monthly flows of electric energy
received or delivered across the border,
the cost associated with the
transactions, and actual and
implemented interchange.
(4a) Proposed Changes to Information
Collection: There is a reduction in the
number of survey respondents required
to file EIA–111 reports. This reduces the
annual estimated responses and
associated burden hours. There is no
change to the content collected on the
EIA–111.
(5) Annual Estimated Number of
Respondents: 153;
(6) Annual Estimated Number of
Total Responses: 612;
(7) Annual Estimated Number of
Burden Hours: 918;
(8) Annual Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Cost Burden: $83,685
(918 burden hours times $91.16 per
hour). EIA estimates that respondents
will have no additional costs associated
with the surveys other than the burden
hours and the maintenance of the
information as part of the normal course
of business.
Comments are invited on whether or
not: (a) The proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of agency functions,
including whether the information will
have a practical utility; (b) EIA’s
PO 00000
Frm 00052

estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used, is accurate; (c) EIA
can improve the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information it will collect;
and (d) EIA can minimize the burden of
the collection of information on
respondents, such as automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.

Administration, Department of Energy
(DOE).
ACTION: Notice of proposed firm power
service and sale of surplus products
formula rates.
AGENCY:
The Upper Great Plains (UGP)
region of the Western Area Power
Administration (WAPA) proposes
revised formula rates for the Pick-Sloan
Missouri Basin Program (P–SMBP)—
Eastern Division (ED) firm power, firm
peaking power service, and sale of
surplus products. The existing formula
rates for these services, under Rate
Schedules P–SED–F14 and P–SED–
FP14, and sale of surplus products,
under formula rate schedule P–SED–
M2, do not expire until December 31,
2027; however, the existing firm power
and firm peaking power service rates no
longer provide sufficient revenue to
recover interest expense and repay
investments. The formula rate for sale of
surplus products is not changing but is
being included in Rate Order No.
WAPA–213 (WAPA–213) in order to
make these rate schedules effective for
the same time frame.
DATES: A consultation and comment
period will begin June 28, 2024 and end
August 27, 2024. Due to not receiving
final Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 financial
data until late January, holding
subsequent rate impact discussions with
customers between February and April,
and the subsequent time frame required
