SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

information collected under the 

requirements of FERC–547, ‘‘Gas 

Pipeline Rates: Refund Report 

Requirements’’ (OMB Control No. 1902– 

0084), is used by the Commission to 

implement the statutory refund 

provisions governed by sections 4, 5, 

and 16 of the Natural Gas Act (NGA).1

Sections 4 and 5 authorize the 

Commission to order a refund, with 

interest, for any portion of a natural gas 

company’s increased rate or charge 

found to be unjust or unreasonable. 

Refunds may also be instituted by a 

natural gas company as a stipulation to 

a Commission-approved settlement 

agreement or a provision under the 

company’s tariff. Section 16 of the NGA 

authorizes the Commission to prescribe 

rules and regulations necessary to 

administer its refund mandates. The 

Commission’s refund reporting 

requirements are found in 18 CFR 

154.501 and 154.502. 

The Commission uses the data to 

monitor refunds owed by natural gas 

companies to ensure that the flowthrough of refunds owed by these 

companies are made as expeditiously as 

possible and to assure that refunds are 

made in compliance with the 

Commission’s regulations. 

Action: The Commission is requesting 

a three-year extension of the FERC–547 

reporting requirements, with no 

changes. 

Burden Statement: The estimated 

annual public reporting burden for 

FERC–547 is reduced from the estimate 

made three years ago due to a reduction 

in the average number of filings 

received annually, from 60 in 2007, to 

30 presently.

The total estimated annual cost 

burden to respondents is $149,143 (2250 

hours/2080 hours 2 per year, times 

$137,874 3). 

The reporting burden includes the 

total time, effort, or financial resources 

expended to generate, maintain, retain, 

disclose, or provide the information, 

including: (1) Reviewing instructions; 

(2) developing, acquiring, installing, and 

utilizing technology and systems for the 

purposes of collecting, validating, 

verifying, processing, maintaining, 

disclosing and providing information; 

(3) adjusting the existing ways to 

comply with any previously applicable 

instructions and requirements; (4) 

training personnel to respond to a 

collection of information; (5) searching 

data sources; (6) completing and 

reviewing the collection of information; 

and (7) transmitting, or otherwise 

disclosing the information. 

The estimate of cost for respondents 

is based upon salaries for professional 

and clerical support, as well as direct 

and indirect overhead costs. Direct costs 

include all costs directly attributable to 

providing this information, such as 

administrative costs and the cost for 

information technology. Indirect or 

overhead costs are costs incurred by an 

organization in support of its mission. 

These costs apply to activities which 

benefit the whole organization rather 

than any one particular function or 

activity. 

Comments are invited on: (1) Whether 

the proposed 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 of 

the proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; (3) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (4) ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on those who are to respond, including 

the use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g. permitting electronic submission of 

responses.
