[Docket No. RM95–4–000]

Revisions to Uniform System of

Accounts, Forms, Statements, and

Reporting Requirements for Natural

Gas Companies; Revised Electronic

Filing Specifications for Rate Filings

Submitted Pursuant to Section 4 of the

Natural Gas Act

January 31, 1997.

On September 28, 1995, the Federal

Energy Regulatory Commission

(Commission) issued Order No. 582,

reorganizing, rewriting, and updating its

regulations governing the form,

composition and filing of rates and

charges for the transportation of natural

gas in interstate commerce.1 The

changes made by the rule include

modifications to the Commission’s

electronic filing requirements.

Although Order No. 582 revised the

electronic filing requirements for all

statements filed pursuant to Subpart D

of Part 154, and all workpapers in

spreadsheet format, it did not include

the final electronic filing specifications.

The Commission suspended the

electronic filing instructions in effect at

the time Order No. 582 was issued until

such time as new instructions are

placed into effect.

On April 2, 1996,2 the Commission

authorized the Commission staff to issue

further electronic and paper filing

specifications related to the forms that

were modified by Order Nos. 581 and

582.3 In compliance with the

Commission’s directive, staff is issuing

the instruction manual for filing rate

cases electronically.

As has been the case with the

electronic filing requirement established

by Order No. 581, staff worked with

industry representatives to complete the

electronic rate case filing instructions.

The specifications were discussed at

working group meetings held on

December 12, 1995, February 8, March

21, and October 10, 1996. As a result of

those discussions, staff has finalized the

electronic filing specifications. The

Instruction Manual for Electronic Filing

of the Rate Filings is attached at

Attachment A.4 To afford the pipelines

adequate time to adapt to these filing

instructions, the instructions will

become effective with filings submitted

on or after May 31, 1997, If a pipeline’s

initial case is submitted prior to May 31,

1997, and, therefore, is not submitted in

electronic format, subsequent filings in

that docket need not be filed

electronically.5

ACTION: Proposed new Privacy Act

system of records.

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA) is publishing a notice for

public comment on a system of records

subject to the Privacy Act of 1974, 5

U.S.C. 552a. This system is entitled

‘‘Medical and Research Study Records

of Human Volunteers.’’ Additional

information on this system is described

in the Supplementary Information

section of this notice.

EFFECTIVE DATE: This notice shall

become effective, without further notice

on March 18, 1997, unless comments

are received which dictate a contrary

determination.

ADDRESSES: Comments should be

addressed to the Director, Human

Studies Division, Office of Research and

Development, U.S. EPA Human Studies

Facility, 104 Mason Farm Road, Chapel

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The EPA

human research program examines the

effects of exposure to environmental

pollutants on human subjects. The

studies will provide information needed

to improve assessments of exposure,

biologically relevant doses, and adverse

health effects. Thus, the studies are used

primarily to support EPA’s regulatory

process by providing scientific

information on the health effects of

environmental pollutants. The records

will be used to screen volunteers to

protect them from unnecessary health

risks, to document their medical

condition, and to document the specific

research activities in which the subjects

participated.

All EPA human studies research

protocols are subject to an extensive

review and approval process before any

research is begun. This includes review

and approval by the investigators’ peers

and supervisors, by an independent

Institutional Review Board, and by the

EPA Office of Research and

Development. Protocols are also

reviewed by the Agency Approving
