Abstract: The Commission requires that public utility officers must seek authorization under amended section 203(a)(1)(B) of the Federal Power Act (FPA) to merge or consolidate, directly or indirectly, its facilities subject to the jurisdiction of the Commission, or any part thereof, with the facilities of any other person, or any part thereof, that are subject to the jurisdiction of the 1 16 Jkt 265001 PO 00000 U.S.C. 824b.

In addition, as required by the Act, the Commission establishes a requirement to submit a notification filing for mergers or consolidations by a public utility if the facilities to be acquired have a value in excess of $1 million and such public utility is not required to secure Commission authorization under amended section 203(a)(1)(B). The information collected under the FERC–519 enables the Commission to meet its statutory responsibilities regarding public utility disposition, merger, consolidation of facilities, purchase, or acquisition oversight and enforcement in accordance with the FPA as referenced above. Without this information, FERC would be unable to meet these responsibilities. The required information includes descriptions of corporate attributes of the party or parties to the proposed transaction (e.g., a sale, lease, or other disposition, merger, or consolidation of facilities, or purchase of other acquisition of the securities of a public utility and the facilities or other property involved in the transaction), statements about effect of the transaction, and the applicant’s proof that the transaction will be consistent with the public interest. It will enable the Commission to meet its statutory responsibilities regarding its FPA section 203 oversight of public utility dispositions, mergers, or consolidation of facilities, and associated oversight and enforcement responsibilities under the FPA as referenced above. The required information to be collected in the notification filing (established by the addition of 18 CFR part 33.12) for certain transactions includes descriptions of corporate attributes of the party or parties to the transaction and the facilities involved. FPA section 203 requires a filing on the occasion that a public utility proposes to dispose of jurisdictional facilities, merge such facilities, or acquire the securities of another public utility. Public Utilities consist of: • Corporate; • Information Technology Management; • General Accounting; • Personnel and Payroll; • Transportation; • Tariffs and Rates; • Insurance; • Operations and Maintenance; • Plant and Depreciation; • Purchase and Stores; • Revenue Accounting and Collection; • Tax; E:\FR\FM\03DEN1.SGM 03DEN1

[Docket No. RM01-5-000]


Electronic Tariff Filings; Notice of Revisions to eTariff

    Take notice that on November 25, 2024, the Commission deployed 
version 2.0 of the eTariff program. All eTariff filings must be 
submitted using the revised version. The revised eTariff schema and 
associated files are displayed at the same accession number as this 
Notice.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ These files also will be posted on the Commission's website 
at https://www.ferc.gov/ferc-online/etariff.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    These revisions enhance the capabilities of the system by enabling 
filing pipelines and utilities to (1) identify the correct lead 
applicants for a proceeding; (2) have more flexibility in the programs 
used to create and file tariffs by filing tariff records in Microsoft 
Word or Excel format; and (3) differentiate between compliance filings 
in a current proceeding and compliance filings that establish a new 
docket. In addition, new codes permit utilities to distinguish baseline 
line rate change filings from baseline initial rate filings.
    As a result of adding the capability to file in Word or Excel, 
certain changes will be made in the way eTariff is displayed on the 
eTariff Public Viewer and eLibrary. The tariff files will be converted 
to .pdf using print-to-pdf for display. The Public Viewer display

[[Page 95764]]

should appear as it does today for .pdf filings. The tariff files in 
eLibrary will display in a FERC Generated PDF document. The metadata 
for each tariff record will display on one page (rather than at the top 
of the page) and the tariff text will follow on the next page.
    These revisions are described in more detail below:

I. Lead Applicant Identification

    The eTariff XML schema will add a mandatory lead applicant field. 
The lead applicant field will determine the lead party making the 
filing and will be added to the Commission's service list. This change 
will require the filing pipeline or utility to add the Company 
Identifier (CID) for the lead applicant to the XML schema. Filings 
without a lead applicant CID will be rejected. Filers also must 
continue to include the company id field to identify the company whose 
tariff is being revised. If pipelines and utilities are filing with 
themselves as the lead applicant, they will include their own CID in 
both the lead_applicant_id field and the company_id field if they are 
filing for themselves.
    The Commission also will post on the eTariff website, https://www.ferc.gov/ferc-online/etariff, a CSV file with CID numbers and will 
endeavor to update that file monthly.
    Pipelines and utilities will continue to make the eTariff filings 
through the eFiling web page at https://ferconline.ferc.gov/Login.aspx. 
The contact information associated with the CID of the lead applicant 
will be added to the Commission's service list. Filers need to be aware 
that although the filing pipeline or utility will be presented with the 
following screen and will have to enter an email address as signer, the 
company and email will not be added to the service list.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TN03DE24.019

    If the pipeline or utility submitting the filing wants to be 
considered a co-applicant, or enter additional email addresses, they 
must enter that information as an ``Additional Applicant'' in the 
eFiling process along with information about any other co-applicants.

II. Flexibility To Include Microsoft Word and Excel Files as Tariff 
Records

    Filing pipelines and utilities will be able to include tariff 
records in Microsoft Word and Excel as well as submitting tariff 
records as RTF or PDF. The Commission wants to provide as much 
flexibility in making these filings as possible, particularly in Excel, 
but to assure that tariff records can be read easily, certain 
formatting requirements are necessary.

A. Word Files

    Word files may be in portrait or landscape format with a format no 
larger than 11''x17'' ledger size.

B. Excel Files

    The following are the formatting requirements for Excel files.
    1. Filings may be in portrait or landscape.
    2. Page size may be no larger than 11''x17'' ledger size.
    3. Excel file must properly define the print range, including print 
titles and print page order, so the document can render properly in 
PDF. Filers need to be careful to ensure that their print range does 
not result in generating numerous blank pages.
    4. If columns or rows roll over to subsequent pages, columns or row 
headers need to be repeated so that subsequent pages are easily 
understood.
    5. An accurate marked version of the tariff record still must be 
filed as an attachment.

III. Revised Filing Codes

    The revised compliance codes will ensure that parties differentiate 
between (1) compliance filings in a current proceeding for which the 
filer has a filing identifier, which are assigned a sub-docket 
(compliance_type category), and (2) compliance filings, such as 
compliance with complaint orders and rulemakings, where the filer has 
no existing filing identifier and therefore must establish a new docket 
(compliance_new category).
    Under the eTariff XML schema, filers that are making a filing 
related to an existing proceeding with a Filing

[[Page 95765]]

Identifier must include an Associated Filing Identifier at the Filing 
level for the filing to receive a sub-docket. In this situation, filers 
must submit the filing using the compliance_type category and must 
include an associated filing identifier at the Filing level, so they 
are assigned a sub-docket of the original docket. Failure to include 
the associated filing identifier will result in a rejection of the 
filing (Error code 28- An Associated Filing Identifier is required at 
filing level.). Type of Filing Codes designated under the 
compliance_new_type category apply to filings that will receive a new 
docket number. If the filing using these codes includes an associated 
filing identifier at the Filing level, the filing be rejected (Error 
code 187--This type of filing code establishes a new docket, so the 
associated filing identifier is not needed).
    New codes also have been added to permit utilities establishing new 
Tariff baselines to distinguish between rate change filings (code 390) 
and initial rate filings under section 35.12 of the Commission's 
regulations (code 395).\2\
