The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission or FERC) requests the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approve FERC Form Nos. 1, 1-F, and 3-Q (electric and gas) for three years. FERC is submitting a combined supporting statement for all three collections. There are no changes to the reporting requirements for the existing information collections. Note - The previous ICR included a one-time burden associated with updating systems to account for changing reporting requirements, which has now been completed and is no longer included in the burden.
In accordance with sections 304(a) and 309 of the Federal Power Act (FPA) and sections 10(a) and 16 of the Natural Gas Act (NGA), FERC is authorized to collect and record data to the extent it considers necessary, and to prescribe rules and regulations concerning accounts, records, and memoranda. Under the existing regulations, FERC jurisdictional entities subject to its Uniform System of Accounts (USofA) must annually file a complete set of financial statements with the Commission, along with other selected financial and non-financial data through the submission of FERC Form Nos. 1 and 1-F and must file this information quarterly through the submission of FERC Form No. 3-Q.
The decrease of one FERC Form No. 1 respondents (from 217 to 216) is due to normal fluctuations in the industry (e.g., companies merging, splitting, entering into, and exiting the industry).
Program Changes. There are no program changes or changes to the reporting or recordkeeping requirements. The previous ICR included a one-time burden associated with updating systems to account for changing reporting requirements, which has now been completed and is no longer included in the burden.
