Final Rule 

1. In this Final Rule, the Commission 

revises its part 154 regulations 

concerning interstate natural gas 

pipeline maps. First, as proposed in its 

Notice of Proposed Rulemaking,1 the 

Commission is permanently eliminating 

the requirements that pipelines include 

system maps in their tariffs and must 

file to update those tariff maps by April 

30 of any year following a major system 

change. Second, as further proposed in 

the NOPR, while the Commission is 

retaining the requirement that pipelines 

maintain a system map on their internet 

Web sites, we revise our regulations to 

require pipelines to update the online 

maps no later than the end of the next 

calendar quarter after a major system 

change. This Final Rule is designed to 

reduce the regulatory burden on 

pipelines and to enhance transparency. 

I. Discussion 

2. The Commission’s current 

regulations require every natural gas 

interstate pipeline to maintain a system 

map within their tariff,2 and specify the 

content of those maps and the deadline 

for filing updated maps.3 Existing 

Commission and North American 

Energy Standards Board (NAESB) rules 

also require that pipeline system maps 

to be published in electronic format on 

the pipeline’s Web site 4 as well as on 

the Commission’s eTariff Web site. The 

interstate pipelines had recently 

informed Commission Staff, however, 

that certain of eTariff’s file restrictions 

often reduce the quality of the electronic 

maps.5

3. Accordingly, the NOPR proposed to 

eliminate the requirement to file maps 

via eTariff, and instead proposed to 

require that pipelines provide a tariff 

record that contains a Web site address, 

or Uniform Resource Locator (URL) 

reference, to the pipeline’s publicly 

available Web site where maps may be 

accessed.6 The NOPR found that with 

the elimination of the requirement to 

include a map in the tariff, the current 

April 30 deadline to update tariff maps 

was effectively obsolete. The NOPR 

therefore proposed to revise the section 

154.106 deadline for updating pipelines’ 

internet Web site maps to require that 

revised maps be posted in the same 

calendar quarter that system changes 

take effect.7

4. Two industry segments, natural gas 

producers and marketers, represented 

by the Natural Gas Supply Association 

(NGSA), and the interstate pipelines, 

represented by the Interstate Natural 

Gas Association of America (INGAA), 

filed comments on the NOPR. Both 

groups generally support the 

Commission’s proposal but suggest 

modifications. INGAA states that the 

proposed updating deadline is too strict 

and potentially does not allow pipelines 

sufficient time to post updated maps. 

NGSA suggests that the Commission 

should take this opportunity to make 

broad changes to modify the quality and 

information required for pipeline 

system maps. 

5. As discussed below, the Final Rule 

implements the changes proposed in the 

NOPR, with the exception that we will 

modify the deadline for posting updated 

maps as proposed by INGAA so that 

pipelines must revise Web site maps to 

reflect any major change no later than 

the end of the calendar quarter 

subsequent to the calendar quarter in 

which the major change occurred. We 

also clarify how pipelines should 

implement the new rule, and we decline 

to expand the scope of this rulemaking 

proceeding.

A. Implementation: 18 CFR 154.103(a) 

and 18 CFR 154.106(a) 

6. As noted, the Commission’s 

regulations require that natural gas 

pipelines’ tariffs include a map of the 

pipeline’s system.8 The Final Rule 

adopts the NOPR proposal to replace 

this requirement to include a system 

map in pipelines’ tariff with the 

requirement to include instead ‘‘. . . a 

uniform resource locator for the Internet 

address of a map of the system . . .’’ 

The NOPR also proposed a 

corresponding change to include new 

subsection 18 CFR 154.106(a), which we 

adopt here and which states that the 

tariff must state a uniform resource 

locator on the pipeline’s Internet Web 

site, at which the general public may 

display and download system map(s). 

7. In its comments, INGAA sought 

clarification regarding compliance with 

the proposed new rule. INGAA noted 

that the revised language proposed in 

the NOPR refers to Uniform Resource 

Locators, while the NOPR text refers to 

pipelines ‘‘posting’’ their system map on 

the informational posting section of 

their Web sites.9 INGAA thus requests 

clarification that providing a ‘clickable’ 

URL in the Tariff/Map category of a 

pipeline’s Informational Postings Web 

site, through which the public could 

view and download the pipeline’s 

system map(s), would comply with the 

new regulation.10

8. As we stated in the NOPR, upon the 

adoption of this rule, NAESB should 

also consider whether additional 

standards are needed to assure 

accessibility and uniformity in the 

presentation of the maps. In the interim, 

we clarify that the approach proposed 

by INGAA, to include a URL in the 

Tariff/Map category of its Internet Web 

site, appears to be a reasonable method 

to for complying with revised section 

154.106(a) because it would allow the 

public to display and download the 

pipeline’s system map. There may be 

other reasonable methods for pipelines 

to comply based on the idiosyncrasies of 

a particular system, and the 

Commission in this Final Rule is not 

dictating any specific method of 

compliance. 

B. Reporting Deadline: 18 CFR 

154.106(c) 

9. Under both the existing and 

proposed versions of 18 CFR 154.106(c), 

a pipeline need only update its map 

after a major change to its system. As 

noted, the existing regulation requires 

that the revised map be filed no later 

than April 30 of the calendar year after 

the major change, thus allowing 

pipelines up to 15 months to update 

maps from the time of a major change. 

The NOPR proposed to shorten that 

deadline to require that maps be revised 

to reflect any major change no later than 

the end of the calendar quarter of the 

major change. 

10. INGAA commented that the 

reporting deadline proposed in the 

NOPR could require pipelines to post 

maps with little or no advance notice, 

especially if a project’s in-service date is 

near the end of a calendar quarter. 

INGAA argues that this timeframe is too 

truncated because a pipeline’s 

personnel are at their busiest precisely 

when major changes are going into 

effect.11 INGAA disputes the 

Commission’s suggestion in the NOPR 

that the 18 CFR 154.106 map 

requirement is analogous to the maps 

prepared as part of a NGA section 7 

certificate application. The maps filed 

with a certificate application, INGAA 

states, ‘‘very often illustrate only 

discrete [portions] of a pipeline system 

at a detailed level’’ and ‘‘are intended 

for different circumstances and 

instances’’ than 18 CFR 154.106 maps.12

11. INGAA proposes that instead of 

the revisions proposed in the NOPR, the 

Commission should modify 18 CFR 

154.106(c) to state, ‘‘The map must be 

revised to reflect any major change no 

later than the end of the calendar 

quarter that immediately follows the 

calendar quarter in which the major 

change occurred.’’ No interveners 

oppose INGAA’s proposal. 

12. The Final Rule adopts INGAA’s 

proposal for section 154.106(c). The 

new rule will allow pipelines at least 

three months to update their maps, 

which should alleviate any concerns 

that pipelines will be additionally 

burdened during the certification 

process. The revised regulation will also 

guarantee that all maps are up-to-date 

within at least six months of any major 

changes, thereby substantially 

shortening the potential 15-month lag 

under the previous regulation.13

C. Scope: 18 CFR 154.106(b) 

13. The NOPR proposed no changes to 

the language of 18 CFR 154.106(a), 

which specifies the required content of 

system maps, but did propose to move 

the language to 18 CFR 154.106(b). That 

section would state that the map must 

show the general geographic location of 

the company’s principal pipeline 

facilities and of the points at which 

service is rendered under the tariff. The 

boundaries of any rate zones or rate 

areas must be shown and the areas or 

zones identified. The entire system 

should be displayed on a single map. In 

addition, a separate map should be 

provided for each zone. 

14. NGSA states in its comments that 

‘‘the Commission should also use this 

opportunity to consider additional 

improvements to increase the usefulness 

of pipeline maps.’’ 14 In particular, 

NGSA requests that the regulations 

require: 

1. High resolution format to increase 

visibility of data. 

2. Clearly labeled: Names, 

identification numbers, and locations of 

compressor stations, meter stations, 

receipt and delivery points, and 

pipeline interconnects. 

3. Descriptive features, such as 

pipeline diameter and flow direction.15

15. NGSA argues that these 

improvements to map quality would 

benefit customers by gathering more 

visual information in one place. NGSA 

believes high-quality maps would also 

help shippers and operators, as a tool 

for daily operational adjustments, and 

for assessing capacity constraints. 

Finally, NGSA suggests higher-quality 

maps would help customers in 

complying with any local regulatory 

obligations, such as municipal taxes.16

16. In the NOPR, the Commission 

emphasized that the intent of this 

proceeding was to adjust the filing 

requirements for system maps, not to 

require changes to the substantive 

content of the maps.17 The Commission 

suggested that the greater flexibility 

afforded by Web site posting may allow 

‘‘the overall quality of pipeline maps 

[to] improve without the need for 

prescriptive regulation,’’ 18 but 

otherwise did not elaborate on the 

narrow scope of the proceeding. We find 

that NGSA’s requests are outside the 

scope of this rulemaking, and thus we 

decline to expand the scope of this 

proceeding.19

D. Effective Date 

17. As the NOPR noted, this change 

to the map reporting requirement will 

obligate every natural gas pipeline to 

make an initial compliance filing, which 

as the NOPR stated, would have to be 

at least 90 days after the Final Rule’s 

publication in the Federal Register.20

18. Pipelines are permitted to update 

their tariffs and Web sites as soon as this 

rule goes into effect, which will be 

during the first quarter of the 2015 

calendar year. Because the regulation 

uses calendar quarters for setting 

deadlines, however, the Commission 

shall not require any pipelines to file 

until April 1, 2015. In this initial 

compliance filing, the pipeline must 

reference an online map updated at least 

through December 31, 2014. 

19. Each pipeline must make its 

compliance filing as an eTariff filing 

using type of filing code (TOFC) 580, 

and the Commission will assign each 

pipeline’s compliance filing a separate 

RP docket and provide interested parties 

an opportunity to intervene in those 

dockets. The Commission recommends 

that pipelines not include any other 

tariff changes in their eTariff 

compliance filing. If the content of the 

filing is limited to compliance with this 

Final Rule, then the Director of the 

Office of Energy Market Regulation may, 

pursuant to 18 CFR 375.307(a)(7)(ii), 

accept the filing under delegated 

authority. 

II. Procedural Matters 

A. Information Collection Statement 

20. The Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) regulations require that 

OMB approve certain reporting and 

recordkeeping (collections of 

information) imposed by an agency.21

Upon approval of a collection(s) of 

information, OMB will assign an OMB 

control number and expiration date. 

Respondents subject to the filing 

requirements of this rule will not be 

penalized for failing to respond to these 

collections of information unless the 

collections of information display a 

valid OMB control number. 

21. The Commission is submitting 

these reporting and recordkeeping 

requirements to OMB for its review and 

approval under section 3507(d) of the 

PRA. Comments are solicited on the 

Commission’s need for this information, 

whether the information will have 

practical utility, the accuracy of the 

provided burden estimate, ways to 

enhance the quality, utility, and clarity 

of the information to be collected, and 

any suggested methods for minimizing 

the respondent’s burden, including the 

use of automated information 

techniques. 

22. This Final Rule revises the 

regulations governing interstate natural 

gas pipeline system maps. First, the 

Commission eliminates the 

requirements that pipelines include a 

map in their tariffs and file an updated 

map as part of their tariff by the 

following April 30 for any year that 

there is a major change in the pipeline’s 

system. Second, the Commission retains 

the requirement that pipelines must 

post and maintain a system map on 

their internet Web sites, and 

implements a quarterly deadline for 

updating pipeline maps.

Necessity of Information: This Final 

Rule would, when implemented, reduce 

the burden of interstate natural gas 

pipelines resulting from compliance 

with the Commission’s regulations. 

Internal Review: The Commission has 

reviewed the requirements pertaining to 

the modification of the Commission’s 

regulations and made a preliminary 

determination that the revisions are 

necessary to reduce the burden imposed 

by the Commission on the natural gas 

industry. The Commission has assured 

itself, by means of its internal review, 

that there is specific, objective support 

for the burden estimates associated with 

the information requirements.

B. Environmental Analysis 

25. The Commission is required to 

prepare an Environmental Assessment 

or an Environmental Impact Statement 

for any action that may have a 

significant adverse effect on the human 

environment.22 The Commission has 

categorically excluded certain actions 

from these requirements as not having a 

significant effect on the human 

environment.23 The actions taken here 

fall within categorical exclusions in the 

Commission’s regulations for rules that 

are clarifying, corrective, or procedural, 

for information gathering, analysis, and 

dissemination, and for sales, exchange, 

and transportation of natural gas that 

requires no construction of facilities.24

Therefore, an environmental assessment 

is unnecessary and has not been 

prepared as part of this Final Rule. 

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act 

26. The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 

1980 (RFA) 25 generally requires a 

description and analysis of final rules 

that will have significant economic 

impact on a substantial number of small 

entities. RFA mandates consideration of 

regulatory alternatives that accomplish 

the stated objectives of a proposed rule 

and that minimize any significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities. The Small 

Business Administration’s (SBA) Office 

of Size Standards develops the 

numerical definition of a small 

business.26 The SBA has established a 

size standard for pipelines transporting 

natural gas stating that a firm is small 

if its annual receipts are less than $27.5 

million.27

27. The changes promulgated here 

only impact interstate pipelines. The 

Commission estimates that 

approximately 165 entities would be 

potential respondents subject to data 

collection FERC–545 reporting 

requirements. Using 2013 revenue data, 

the Commission estimates that 70 28

pipelines not affiliated with larger 

companies had annual revenues of less 

than $27.5 million. The Commission 

estimates that the one-time cost per 

small entity is $1,024.29 In the future, 

small entities should see a cost savings 

related to avoiding filing requirements 

related to system maps. The 

Commission does not consider the 

estimated $1,024 impact per entity to be 

significant. Accordingly, pursuant to 

§ 605(b) of the RFA, the Commission 

certifies that this proposed rule should 

not have a significant economic impact 

on a substantial number of small 

entities.
