FERC Form No. 6, Annual Report of Oil Pipeline Companies \2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ The renewal request for the FERC Form No. 6 in this IC 
docket is for the current form, with no change to the reporting 
requirements.
    The FERC Form No. 6 is also part of the Forms Refresh effort 
(started in Docket No. AD15-11), which is a separate activity and 
not addressed in this Notice.
    In addition, there is a pending Docket No. RM15-19 which is a 
separate activity and is not addressed in this Notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    OMB Control No.: 1902-0022
    Abstract: Under the Interstate Commerce Act (ICA), (Section 20, 54 
Stat. 916), the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC) was authorized and 
empowered to make investigations and to collect and record data to the 
extent considered necessary or useful for the purpose of carrying out 
the provisions of the ICA.
    In 1977, the Department of Energy Organization Act transferred to 
the Commission from the ICC the responsibility to regulate oil pipeline 
companies. In accordance with the transfer of authority, the Commission 
was delegated the responsibility to require oil pipelines to file 
annual reports of information necessary for the Commission to exercise 
its statutory responsibilities.\3\ The transfer included the Form P, 
the predecessor to the FERC Form No. 6, Annual Report of Oil Pipeline 
Companies (Form 6).\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Section 402(b) of the Department of Energy Organization Act 
(DOE Act), 42 U.S.C. 7172 provides that; ``[t]here are hereby 
transferred to, and vested in, the Commission all functions and 
authority of the Interstate Commerce Commission or any officer or 
component of such Commission where the regulatory function 
establishes rates or charges for the transportation of oil by 
pipeline or established the valuation of any such pipeline.''
    \4\ The ICC developed the Form P to collect information on an 
annual basis to enable it to carry out its regulation of oil 
pipeline companies under the Interstate Commerce Act. A 
comprehensive review of the reporting requirements for oil pipeline 
companies was performed on September 21, 1982, when the Commission 
issued Order 260 revising the former ICC Form P, ``Annual Report of 
Carriers by Pipeline'' and redesignating it as FERC Form No. 6, 
``Annual Report of Oil Pipeline Companies''.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    To reduce burden on industry, the FERC Form No. 6 has three tiers 
of reporting requirements:
    1. Each oil pipeline carrier whose annual jurisdictional operating 
revenues has been $500,000 or more for each of the three previous 
calendar years must file FERC Form No. 6. Oil pipeline carriers 
submitting a complete FERC Form No. 6 must submit FERC Form 6-Q.\5\ 
Newly established entities must use projected data to determine whether 
FERC Form No. 6 must be filed.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ FERC Form 6-Q is covered separately and is approved by OMB 
under OMB Control No. 1902-0206. It is not a subject of this Notice; 
FERC Form 6-Q is being addressed separately in Docket No. IC16-7-
000.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    2. Oil pipeline carriers exempt from filing FERC Form No. 6 whose 
annual jurisdictional operating revenues have been more than $350,000 
but less than $500,000 for each of the three previous calendar years 
must prepare and file page 301, ``Operating Revenue Accounts (Account 
600), and page 700, ``Annual cost of Service Based Analysis Schedule,'' 
of FERC Form No. 6. When submitting pages 301 and 700, each exempt oil 
pipeline carrier must include page 1 of the FERC Form No. 6, the 
Identification and Attestation schedules.
    3. Oil pipeline carriers exempt from filing FERC Form No. 6 and 
page 301 and whose annual jurisdictional operating revenues were 
$350,000 or less for each of the three previous calendar years must 
prepare and file page 700, ``Annual Cost of Service Based Analysis 
Schedule,'' of FERC Form No. 6.
    The Commission uses the FERC Form No. 6 information in:
     implementation of its financial audits and programs, the 
continuous review of the financial condition of regulated companies, 
and the assessment of energy markets
     various rate proceedings and economic analyses
     background research for use in litigation
     programs relating to the administration of the ICA
     computation of annual charges, which are required by 
Section 3401 of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1986.
    Type of Respondent: Oil Pipelines.
    Estimate of Annual Burden: The Commission estimates the annual 
public reporting burden \6\ and cost \7\ for the FERC Form No. 6 
information collection as follows.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ The burden associated with the one-time re-filing of Page 
700 data for Years 2009-2011 has been completed and is not included.
    \7\ The cost is based on FERC's 2016 average cost (salary plus 
benefits) of $74.50/hour. The Commission staff believes that the 
industry's level and skill set is comparable to FERC.

FERC Form No. 580, Interrogatory on Fuel and Energy Purchase Practices

OMB Control No.: 1902-0137

    Abstract: FERC Form No. 580 is collected in even numbered years. 
The Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act (PURPA) \8\ amended the 
Federal Power Act (FPA) and directed the Commission to make 
comprehensive biennial reviews of certain matters related to automatic 
adjustment clauses (AACs) in wholesale rate schedules used by public 
utilities subject to the Commission's jurisdiction. Specifically, the 
Commission is required to examine whether the clauses effectively 
provide the incentives for efficient use of resources and whether the 
clauses reflect only those costs that are either ``subject to periodic 
fluctuations'' or ``not susceptible to precise determinations'' in rate 
cases prior to the time the costs are incurred.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ Enacted November 8, 1978
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission is also required to review the practices of each 
public utility under AACs ``to insure efficient use of resources under 
such clauses.'' \9\ In response to the PURPA directive, the Commission 
(Docket Number IN79-6-000) established an investigation. Beginning in 
1982, the Commission collected ``Interrogatory on Fuel and Energy 
Purchase Practices'' data every other year.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ The review requirement is set forth in two paragraphs of 
Section 208 of PURPA, 49 Stat.851; 16 U.S.C. 824d.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Estimate of Annual Burden \11\: The Commission estimates the annual

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ The Commission defines burden as 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. For further explanation of what is included in the 
information collection burden, reference 5 Code of Federal 
Regulations 1320.3.
    \12\ The FERC Form 580 data is collected on a biennial basis. In 
order to represent the burden appropriately, the ``Annual Number of 
Responses per Respondent'' is assigned a figure of 0.5. This figure 
means that one response per respondent is received on average for 
each two year period. The ``Total Annual Burden Hours & Total Annual 
Cost'' figures are all annual figures based on the biennial 
frequency assumption.
