Proposed Agency Information 

Collection 

AGENCY: U.S. Energy Information 

Administration (EIA), Department of 

Energy. 

ACTION: Agency information collection 

activities: Proposed collection; notice 

and request for comments. 

SUMMARY: EIA invites public comment 

on the proposed collection of 

information, Form EIA–63C, Densified 

Biomass Fuel Report, which EIA is 

developing for submission to the Office 

of Management and Budget (OMB) 

pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction 

Act of 1995. Comments are invited on: 

(a) Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

agency, including whether the 

information shall have practical utility; 

(b) 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; 

(c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, 

and clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (d) ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on respondents, including through the 

use of automated collection techniques 

or other forms of information 

technology. 

When submitting comments regarding 

the reporting burden or costs of 

reporting this information, describe in 

detail any start-up costs you expect to 

incur such as new software, processes, 

or training. If you claim that you may 

incur start-up costs in reporting this 

requested information, describe how 

your current record keeping practices 

differ from the information to be 

collected on the proposed Form EIA– 

63C. 

DATES: Comments regarding this 

proposed information collection must 

be received on or March 2, 2015. If you 

anticipate difficulty in submitting 

comments within that period, contact 

the person listed in ADDRESSES as soon 

as possible. 

ADDRESSES: Use email address: EIA– 

63C@eia.gov to send comments 

electronically and to ensure receipt of 

the comments by the due date. The 

postal mailing address for sending 

written comments is Attn: Rebecca 

Peterson, U.S. Department of Energy, 

U.S. Energy Information 

Administration, Mail Stop EI–23, 

Forrestal Building, 1000 Independence 

Avenue SW., Washington, DC 20585. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Requests for additional information 

should be directed to Rebecca Peterson 

at the email address Rebecca.Peterson@

eia.gov. Ms. Peterson may also be 

contacted by telephone on (202) 586– 

4509. The draft form and instructions 

are available on the EIA Web site at 

http://www.eia.gov/survey/form/eia_

63c/proposed/. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

information collection request contains: 

(1) OMB No.: New; 

(2) Information Collection Request 

Title: Form EIA–63C, Densified Biomass 

Fuel Report; 

(3) Type of Request: New; 

(4) Purpose: The consumption of 

densified biomass fuel, a renewable 

energy source, is increasing in the 

United States, particularly in the 

northeast where a number of states are 

conducting successful incentive 

programs for switching from fuel oil to 

biomass for heating. Production of 

densified biomass fuel for export is also 

rapidly growing, particularly in the 

southeastern United States, driven by 

demand from the European community 

where greenhouse gas reduction 

initiatives are driving conversion of coal 

to biomass for electric power generation. 

The survey will gather information on 

pellet fuel and other densified biomass 

fuel production, sales, and inventory 

levels by operators of pellet fuel 

manufacturing facilities in the United 

States. The data collected will be used 

to estimate densified biomass fuel 

consumption in the United States as 

well as production, sales, and inventory 

at state, regional, and national levels. A 

summary of the data will be published 

on the EIA Web site and in various EIA 

publications, including the Monthly 

Energy Review. 

(5) Annual Estimated Number of 

Respondents: We estimate the number 

of respondents to be approximately 150; 

(6) Annual Estimated Number of 

Total Responses: 1,800 (150 

respondents × 12 months); 

(7) Annual Estimated Number of 

Burden Hours: 1,800 (150 respondents × 

12 months × 1 hour for each response); 

(8) Annual Estimated Reporting and 

Recordkeeping Cost Burden: EIA 

estimates that there are no capital and 

start-up costs associated with this data 

collection. The information is 

maintained in the normal course of 

business. The cost of burden hours to 

the respondents is estimated to be 

$124,794 (1800 burden hours times 

$69.33 per hour). Therefore, other than 

the cost of burden hours, EIA estimates 

that there are no additional costs for 

generating, maintaining and providing 

the information. 

Statutory Authority: Section 13(b) of the 

Federal Energy Administration Act of 1974, 

Pub. L. 93–275, codified as 15 U.S.C. 772(b). 

Issued in Washington, DC, on December 

23, 2014.
