SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: FERC–716, Good Faith Requests 

for Transmission Service and Good 

Faith Responses by Transmitting 

Utilities Under Sections 211(a) and 

213(a) of the Federal Power Act (FPA). 

OMB Control No.: 1902–0170. 

Type of Request: Three-year extension 

of the FERC–716 information collection 

requirements with no changes to the 

current reporting requirements. 

Abstract: The Commission uses the 

information collected under the 

requirements of FERC–716 to 

implement the statutory provisions of 

sections 211 and section 213 of the 

Federal Power Act as amended and 

added by the Energy Policy Act 1992. 

FERC–716 also includes the 

requirement to file a section 211 request 

if the negotiations between the 

transmission requestor and the 

transmitting utility are unsuccessful. 

For the initial process, the information 

is not filed with the Commission. 

However, the request and response may 

be analyzed as a part of a section 211 

action. The Commission may order 

transmission services under the 

authority of FPA 211. 

The Commission’s regulations in the 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), 18 

CFR 2.20, provide standards by which 

the Commission determines if and when 

a valid good faith request for 

transmission has been made under 

section 211 of the FPA. By developing 

the standards, the Commission sought to 

encourage an open exchange of data 

with a reasonable degree of specificity 

and completeness between the party 

requesting transmission services and the 

transmitting utility. As a result, 18 CFR 

2.20 identifies 12 components of a good 

faith estimate and 5 components of a 

reply to a good faith request. The 60-day 

Federal Register Notice 1 published on 

April 21, 2021 and no comments were 

received during the comment period. 

Type of Respondents: Transmission 

Requestors and Transmitting Utilities. 

Estimate of Annual Burden 2: The 

Commission estimates the annual public 

reporting burden for the information 

collection as: 

FERC–716 (GOOD FAITH REQUESTS FOR TRANSMISSION SERVICE AND GOOD FAITH RESPONSES BY TRANSMITTING

UTILITIES UNDER SECTIONS 211(a) AND 213(a) OF THE FEDERAL POWER ACT (FPA))

Comments: Comments are invited on: 

(1) Whether the collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

Commission, including whether the 

information will have practical utility; 

(2) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate 

of the burden and cost of the collection 

of information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used; 

(3) ways to enhance the quality, utility 

and clarity of the information collection; 

and (4) ways to minimize the burden of 

the collection of information on those 

who are to respond, including the use 

of automated collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology.
