SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

information collected under the

to implement the statutory provisions of 

the Public Utility Holding Company Act 

of 2005 (PUHCA 2005). Among other 

things, PUHCA 2005 was intended to 

give the Commission access to books 

and records relevant to costs incurred 

by a public utility or natural gas 

company which are necessary or

customers with respect to jurisdictional

utilities and natural gas companies in 

the holding company system and the 

identity of service companies, including 

special-purpose subsidiaries providing 

non-power goods and services and the 

identity of all affiliates and subsidiaries 

and their corporate relationship to each 

other. Filings may be submitted in 

hardcopy or electronically through the 

Commission’s eFiling system. 

Action: The Commission is requesting 

a three-year extension of the current 

expiration date.

burden for this collection is estimated
