BILLING CODE 6450–01–P

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Energy Information Administration

Agency information collection

activities: Submission for emergency

OMB review; comment request

AGENCY: Energy Information

Administration (EIA), Department of

Energy (DOE).

ACTION: Agency Information Collection

Activities: Submission for Emergency

OMB Review; Comment Request.

SUMMARY: The EIA has submitted the

energy information collection listed at

the end of this notice to the Office of

Management and Budget (OMB) for

emergency processing under section

3507(j)(1) of the Paperwork Reduction

Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13) (44 U.S.C.

3501 et seq.) by January 14, 2002. The

reason for this emergency clearance

request is that the American Gas

Association (AGA) plans to discontinue

collecting and releasing weekly

underground natural gas storage

statistics at the end of April 2002. The

Secretary of Energy announced on

October 30, 2001, that EIA would begin

to survey weekly storage activities when

AGA discontinues its data collection.

Storage estimates will be provided for

three multi-state regions comprising the

lower 48 States. These regions were

chosen because they are familiar to both

respondents and data users. Normal

clearance procedures would prevent the

timely collection of this storage

information by EIA when AGA

discontinues its survey.

DATES: Comments must be filed by

January 4, 2002.

ADDRESSES: Send comments to Bryon

Allen, OMB Desk Officer for DOE,

Office of Information and Regulatory

Affairs, Office of Management and

Budget. To ensure receipt of the

comments by the due date, submission

by FAX at 202–395–7285 or e-mail to

BAllen@omb.eop.gov is recommended.

The mailing address is 726 Jackson

Place NW., Washington, DC 20503. The

OMB DOE Desk Officer may be

telephoned at (202) 395–7318. (A copy

of your comments should also be

provided to EIA’s Statistics and

Methods Group at the address below.)
