SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

information collection request contains: 

(1) OMB No.: 1901–0288; (2) 

Information Collection Request Title: 

Electric Emergency Incident and 

Disturbance Report; (3) Type of Request: 

Three-year extension with changes; (4) 

Purpose: The Federal Energy 

Administration Act of 1974 (Pub. L. 93– 

275, 15 U.S.C. 761 et seq.) and the DOE 

Organization Act (Pub. L. 95–91, 42 

U.S.C. 7101 et seq.) requires the DOE to 

carry out a centralized, comprehensive, 

and unified energy information 

program. This program collects, 

analyzes, and disseminates information 

on energy resource reserves, production, 

demand, technology, and related 

economic and statistical information. 

This information is used to assess the 

adequacy of energy resources to meet 

near and longer-term domestic 

demands. 

The Office of Electricity Delivery and 

Energy Reliability (OE), as part of its 

effort to comply with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13, 

44 U.S.C. Chapter 35), provides the 

general public and other Federal 

agencies the opportunities to comment 

on collections of energy information 

conducted by OE. Any comments 

received help the DOE to prepare data 

requests that maximize the utility of the 

information collected and to assess the 

impact of collection requirements on the 

public. Also, the DOE will later seek the 

approval of this collection of this 

information by the Office of 


tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 178 / Monday, September 15, 2014 / Notices 54975 

Management and Budget (OMB) under 

section 3507(a) of the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995. 

The DOE collects information on the 

generation, distribution, and 

transmission of electric energy. The 

DOE also collects information on 

emergency situations in the electric 

energy supply systems so that 

appropriate Federal emergency response 

measures can be implemented in a 

timely and effective manner. 

The purpose of this notice is to seek 

public comment on the revised Form 

OE–417 ‘‘Electric Emergency Incident 

and Disturbance Report’’, which is used 

to report electric emergency incidents 

and disturbances to the DOE. The OE– 

417 reports enable the DOE to monitor 

electric emergency incidents and 

disturbances in the United States 

(including all 50 states, the District of 

Columbia, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin 

Islands, and the U.S. Trust Territories) 

so that the Government may help 

prevent the physical or virtual 

disruption of the operation of any 

critical infrastructure. 

Currently, OE uses Form OE–417 to 

monitor major system incidents on the 

electric power systems, assess power 

generating capacity in the event of a 

significant disruption, and to conduct 

after-action non-regulatory 

investigations on significant 

interruptions of electric power. The 

information is used to meet DOE 

national-security responsibilities and 

requirements as set forth in the U.S. 

Department of Homeland Security’s 

National Response Framework. The 

information may also be used in 

developing legislative 

recommendations/reports to Congress 

and coordinating Federal efforts 

regarding activities such as incidents/

disturbances in critical infrastructure 

protection, the continuity of electric 

industry operations, and the continuity 

of operations. The information 

submitted may also be used by OE to 

analyze significant power interruptions 

of electric power from a non-regulatory 

perspective. 

(4a) Proposed Changes to Information 

Collection: OE is considering making 

the following changes during this 

recertification cycle: 

(a) OE intends to protect the data 

submitted on Schedule 2 of the OE–417 

under the Confidential Information 

Protection and Statistical Efficiency Act 

of 2002 (Pub. L. 107–347, 44 U.S.C. 

3501 note)(CIPSEA). The information 

reported on Schedule 2 will be kept 

confidential and used for exclusively 

statistical purposes. This differs from 

the previous confidentiality provisions 

that were used to protect information 

reported in this schedule. 

In the past, information was protected 

to the extent that it satisfied the criteria 

for exemption under the Freedom of 

Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552, 

the DOE regulations, 10 CFR 1004.11, 

implementing the FOIA, and the Trade 

Secrets Act, 18 U.S.C. 1905. These laws 

permitted the information to be used for 

any non-statistical purposes such as 

administrative, regulatory, law 

enforcement, or adjudicatory purposes. 

Under CIPSEA, the information will not 

be used for these non-statistical 

purposes and the information would be 

used for exclusively statistical purposes. 

(b) In applying CIPSEA to protect 

information reported in Schedule 2, OE 

will no longer accept submissions of 

OE–417 forms via email to limit 

disclosure of confidential information. 

Respondents will still be able to submit 

event reports via phone or via fax to the 

DOE Emergency Operations Center 

(EOC) which functions 24 hours a day, 

7 days a week, 365 days a year. 

(c) Adjusting the responses requested 

in Question 19 and Question 20 to be 

more generic and the removal of current 

form Question 21 and Question 22. 

The online filing system will now be 

the default submission method for 

submitting OE–417 forms during events. 

Information submitted on Schedule 1 of 

the OE–417 will still be considered 

public, with public summaries posted 

on the OE Web site. The online filing 

system will be upgraded to transmit 

public information collected on 

Schedule 1 of the OE–417 to other 

organizations, such as the North 

American Electric Reliability 

Corporation (NERC), as needed. 

(5) Annual Estimated Number of 

Respondents: 2,924; 

(6) Annual Estimated Number of 

Total Responses: 300; 

(7) Annual Estimated Number of 

Burden Hours: 5061 hours; 

(8) Annual Estimated Reporting and 

Recordkeeping Cost Burden: $0. There 

are no additional costs to respondents 

associated with the survey other than 

the costs associated with the burden 

hours. 

Statutory Authority: Section 13(b) of the 

Federal Energy Administration Act of 1974, 

Pub. L. 93–275, codified at 15 U.S.C. 772(b). 

Issued in Washington, DC, on September 8, 

2014.

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket No. CP14–545–000] 

Texas Eastern Transmission, LP; 

Notice of Application 

On August 28, 2014, Texas Eastern 

Transmission, LP (Texas Eastern) filed 

with the Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission (Commission) an 

application under section 7(c) of the 

Natural Gas Act and Part 157 of the 

Commission’s Regulations for its 

proposed Bailey East Mine Panel 2L 

Project (Project). Texas Eastern proposes 

to replace and temporarily elevate 

sections of three different pipelines in 

order to monitor and mitigate potential 

strains and stresses on these pipelines 

that could result from longwall coal 

mining activities planned by Consol 

Energy, Inc. in the area beneath Texas 

Eastern’s existing pipeline facilities in 

Greene County, Pennsylvania. The 

Project will ensure the safe and efficient 

operation of these pipeline facilities 

throughout the duration of the longwall 

mining activities, scheduled to occur in 

early 2016. Texas Eastern requests that 

the Commission grant the requested 

authorizations by February 15, 2015. 

Questions concerning this application 

may be directed to Lisa A. Connolly, 

General Manager, Rates and Certificates, 

at Texas Eastern Transmission, LP, P.O. 

Box 1642, Houston, Texas 77251–1642, 

by calling 713–627–4102, by Fax at 

(713) 627–5947, or by emailing 

laconnolly@spectraenergy.com. 

Pursuant to section 157.9 of the 

Commission’s rules, 18 CFR 157.9, 

within 90 days of this Notice the 

Commission staff will either: Complete 

its environmental assessment (EA) and 

place it into the Commission’s public 

record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or 

issue a Notice of Schedule for 

Environmental Review. If a Notice of 

Schedule for Environmental Review is 

issued, it will indicate, among other 

milestones, the anticipated date for the 

Commission staff’s issuance of the final 

environmental impact statement (FEIS) 

or EA for this proposal. The filing of the 

EA in the Commission’s public record 

for this proceeding or the issuance of a 

Notice of Schedule for Environmental 

Review will serve to notify federal and 

state agencies of the timing for the 

completion of all necessary reviews, and 

the subsequent need to complete all 

federal authorizations within 90 days of 

the date of issuance of the Commission 

staff’s FEIS or EA.
