damage to its facilities and was without

electricity and water for days. During

this period, school facilities served as a

disaster, district officials were unable to

tend to usual business. The district has

requested that the U.S. Department of

education extend by one day the

deadline for submission of its

application for Goals 2000 funding. In

light of the information provided by the

district, the Assistant Secretary has

extended until May 28, 1998 the

deadline by which the Deer Creek—

Lamont School District may file an

application for fiscal years 1997 and

1998 Goals 2000 funding.

Proposed Information Collection and

Request for Comments

June 19, 1998.

AGENCY: Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission.

ACTION: Notice of proposed information

collection and request for comments.

SUMMARY: In compliance with the

requirements of Section 3506(c)(2)(a) of

the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

(Pub. L. No. 104–13), the Federal Energy

Regulatory Commission (Commission) is

soliciting public comment on the

specific aspects of the information

collection described below.

DATES: Consideration will be given to

comments submitted on or before

August 24, 1998.

ADDRESSES: Copies of the proposed

collection of information can be

obtained from and written comments

may be submitted to the Federal Energy

Regulatory Commission, Attn: Michael

Miller, Office of the Chief Information

Officer, CI–1, 888 First Street N.E.,

Washington, D.C. 20426.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Michael Miller may be reached by

telephone at (202) 208–1415, by fax at

(202) 273–0873, and by e-mail at

michael.miller@ferc.fed.us.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

information collected under the

requirements of FERC Form No. 73 ‘‘Oil

Pipelines Service Life Data’’ (OMB No.

1902–0019) is used by the Commission

to implement the statutory provisions of

Sections 306 and 402 of the Department

of Energy Organization Act 42 U.S.C.

§ 7155 and 7172, and Executive Order

No. 12009, 42 FR 46277 (September 13,

1977). From these statutory sections the

Commission assumed jurisdictional

responsibility for oil pipelines from the

Interstate Commerce Act, 49 U.S.C.

§ 6501 et. al. As part of the information

necessary for the subsequent

investigation and review of the oil

pipeline company’s proposed

depreciation rates, the pipeline

companies are required to provide

service life data as part of their data

submission if the proposed depreciation

rates are based on remaining physical

life calculations. This service life data is

collected and submitted on FERC Form

No. 73.

Data submitted by an oil pipeline

company during an investigation may

be either initial data or it may be an

update to existing data already on file.

These data are then used by the

Commission as input to several

computer programs know collectively as

the Depreciation Life Analysis System

(DLAS) to assist in the selection of

appropriate service lives and book

depreciation rates.

Book depreciation rates are used by

oil pipeline companies to compute the

depreciation portion of their operating
