Recipients of American Recovery and 

Reinvestment Act funding. 

An agency head or the Senior Official,

5. Mandatory 

6. DOE’s Office of Fossil Energy (FE) 

is delegated the authority to regulate 

natural gas imports and exports under 

section 3 of the Natural Gas Act of 1938, 

15 U.S.C. 717b. In order to carry out its 

delegated responsibility, FE requires 

those persons seeking to import or 

export natural gas to file an application 

containing the basic information about 

the scope and nature of the proposed 

import/export activity. Historically, FE 

has collected information on a quarterly 

and monthly basis regarding import and 

export transactions. That information 

has been used to ensure compliance 

with the terms and conditions of the 

authorizations. In addition, the data are 

used to monitor North American gas 

trade, which, in turn, enables the 

Federal government to perform market 

and regulatory analyses; improve the 

capability of industry and the 

government to respond to any future 

energy-related supply problems; and 

keep the general public informed of 

international natural gas trade. 

7. Business or other for-profit (or 

other appropriate type of respondents). 

8. There are 12,110 total burden 

hours, and 325 total respondents. Shortterm and long term applications are 

filed annually, and applicants who hold 

authorizations file a monthly report. 

Please refer to the supporting 

statement as well as the proposed forms 

and instructions for more information 

about the purpose, who must report, 

when to report, where to submit, the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: During the 

Pre-Solicitation Workshop, DOE will 

have several presentations about the 

status of technologies for fuel cells and 

fuel cell systems in transporation and 

stationary applications. Workshop
