its application. If the licensee of such a 

project has not filed an application for 

a subsequent license, then it may be 

required, pursuant to 18 CFR 16.21(b),

1Burden is defined as the total time, effort, or 

financial resources expended by persons to 

generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide 

information to or for a federal agency. For further 

explanation of what is included in the information 

collection burden, refer to 5 CFR 1320.3. 

2Annual public reporting burden based on 

respondents over the last three-year period. 3The estimates for cost per response are derived 

using the formula: Average Burden Hours per 

Response * 87.00 per hour = Average Cost per 

Response. The hourly cost figure comes from the 

FERC average salary plus benefits of $180,703 per 

year (or $87.00/hour). These estimates were 

updated in May 2021. This figure is being used 

because the staff thinks industry is similarly 

situated in terms of average hourly cost.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: FERC–606, Notification of 

Request for Federal Authorization and 

Requests for Further Information; 

FERC–607, Report on Decision or 

Action on Request for Federal 

Authorization. 

OMB Control No.: 1902–0241. 

Type of Request: Three-year extension 

of these information collection 

requirements for all collections 

described below with no changes to the 

current reporting requirements. Please 

note that each collection is distinct from 

the other. 

Abstract: FERC–606 requires agencies 

and officials responsible for issuing, 

conditioning, or denying requests for 

federal authorizations necessary for a 

proposed natural gas project to report to 

the Commission regarding the status of 

an authorization request. This reporting 

requirement is intended to allow 

agencies to assist the Commission to 

make better informed decisions in 

establishing due dates for agencies’ 

decisions. 

FERC–607 requires agencies or 

officials to submit to the Commission a 

copy of a decision or action on a request 

for federal authorization and an 

accompanying index to the documents 

and materials relied on in reaching a 

conclusion. 

The information collections can 

neither be discontinued nor collected 

less frequently because of statutory 

requirements. The consequences of not 

collecting this information are that the 

Commission would be unable to fulfill 

its statutory mandate under the Energy 

Policy Act of 2005 to: 

• Establish a schedule for agencies to 

review requests for federal 

authorizations required for a project, 

and 

• Compile a record of each agency’s 

decision, together with the record of the 

Commission’s decision, to serve as a 

consolidated record for the purpose of 

appeal or review, including judicial 

review. 

Type of Respondent: Agencies with 

federal authorization responsibilities. 

Estimate of Annual Burden: 1 The 

Commission estimates the annual public 

reporting burden 2 and cost 3 (rounded) 

for the information collection as 

follows: 

FERC–606 (NOTIFICATION OF REQUEST FOR FEDERAL AUTHORIZATION AND REQUESTS FOR FURTHER INFORMATION), AND

FERC–607 (REPORT ON DECISION OR ACTION ON REQUEST FOR FEDERAL AUTHORIZATION)

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.
