DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket No. AD04–9–001] 

Billing Procedures for Annual Charges 

for the Costs of Other Federal 

Agencies for Administering Part I of 

the Federal Power Act; Notice Issuing 

Revised Form for Other Federal 

Agency Cost Submission 

September 17, 2004. 

By order dated June 18, 2004, the 

Commission acted on certain issues 

remanded to it by the court in City of 

Tacoma, WA et al. v. FERC, 331 F.3rd 

106 (D.C. Cir. 2003). In this case, the 

court concluded that the Commission is 

required to determine the 

reasonableness of costs incurred by 

other Federal agencies (OFA’s) 

pertaining to their participation in FERC 

proceedings under Part I of the Federal 

Power Act when OFA’s seek to include 

such costs in the administrative annual 

charges licensees must pay to reimburse 

the United States for the cost of 

administering Part I. The Commission’s 

June 18 Order, among other things, 

introduced a proposed new form to be 

used in submitting OFA costs. 107 FERC 

¶ 61,277. 

By separate notice also dated June 18, 

the Commission stated that the form 

would be finalized in a technical 

conference. On August 13, 2004, the 

Commission issued a notice announcing 

the final OFA form. 

The purpose of the instant notice is to 

issue a revised OFA form, as attached. 

This revised OFA form is posted on the 

Commission’s Web site at http://

www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/hard-filing/

ofa/ofa-form.doc.
