SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

information collected under the 

requirements of FERC Form 2A ‘‘Annual 

Report of Nonmajor Natural Gas 

Companies’’ (OMB No. 1902–0030) is 

used by the Commission to carry out its 

responsibilities in implementing the 

statutory provisions of the Natural Gas 

Act (NGA) 15 U.S.C. 717. The FERC 

Form 2 is a financial and operating 

report for natural gas rate regulation for 

major pipeline owners. A ‘‘nonmajor’’

pipeline owner is one that has 

combined gas sales for resale and has 

gas transported or stored for a fee that 

exceeds 200,000 Dth but which is less 

than 50 million Dth, in each of the three 

previous calendar years. Under the 

Form 2–A, the Commission investigates, 

collects and records data, and prescribes 

rules and regulations concerning 

accounts, records and memoranda as 

necessary to administer the NGA. The 

Commission is empowered to prescribe 

a system of accounts for jurisdictional 

gas pipelines and after notice and 

opportunity for hearing, may determine 

the accounts in which particular outlays 

and receipts will be entered, charged or 

credited. 

FERC staff uses the data in the 

continuous review of the financial 

condition of jurisdictional companies, 

in various rate proceedings and in the 

Commission’s audit program. 

The annual financial information filed 

with the Commission is a mandatory 

requirement submitted in a prescribed 

format which is filed electronically and 

on paper. The Commission implements 

these filing requirements in 18 CFR 

Parts 158, 201, 260.2 and 385.2011. 

Action: The Commission is requesting 

a three-year extension of the current 

expiration date, with no changes to the 

existing collection of data. 

Burden Statement: Public reporting 

burden for this collection is estimated 

as:
