Final Rule
-
Discussion
-
This Final Rule amends a number of sections of the Commission's regulations to revise outdated references to various Commission offices. An internal reorganization in 2003 resulted in functions previously carried out by the Offices of Pipeline Regulation and Electric Power Regulation being distributed between the Offices of Markets, Tariffs and Rates (OMTR) and Energy Projects (OEP). In addition, the functions of the Office of Hydropower Licensing were moved to OEP. Since then, OMTR has been renamed the Office of Energy Markets and Reliability (OEMR). The Commission's regulations currently contain references to the three former offices, as well as several references to OMTR. This rulemaking changes these references to OEMR or OEP, as appropriate.
-
This Final Rule also revises the delegations to the Director of OEMR \1\ contained in 18 CFR 375.307. The majority of these revisions are intended to organize better and to clarify those delegations rather than modify them. The revisions delete redundant language; revise language concerning electric, gas and oil filings to better ensure consistency in the delegations of authority; and reorganize the language by program.
\1\ The Director's delegations were recently revised to reflect the transfer of some functions to the Office of Enforcement. Delegations of Authority, 118 FERC ] 61,060 (2007). This Final Rule makes additional revisions.
-
In a few instances, OEMR's delegated authority has been expanded. In such cases, these authorities are intended to assist the Commission in processing routine, noncontroversial matters in an efficient manner. New section 375.307(a)(2) includes delegated authority to assist OEMR in implementing certain reliability provisions of Federal Power Act section 215, which were enacted by the Energy Policy Act of 2005.\2\ New sections 375.307(a)(4)(iii) and (a)(6) also delegate to the Director of OEMR authority to assist in implementing the provisions of the Energy Policy Act of 2005.\3\ New sections 375.307(a)(10)(iii) and (iv) add delegated authority to act in routine matters involving natural gas pipeline rates and charges under section 311 of the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978 \4\ that is similar to the authority delegated to the Director of OEMR to act on natural gas pipeline rates and charges under section 4 of the Natural Gas Act. New section 375.307(b)(2)(i) delegates authority to act on waiver requests for various forms, while new section 375.307(b)(3)(ii) delegates to the Director of OEMR authority to request further information relating to matters processed by OEMR. Finally, because new section 375.307(a)(4) includes authority to act on uncontested FERC-65A and FERC-65B filings, overlapping authority is being deleted from section 366.4.

\3\ Id., 1253, 1275(b).
\4\ See 18 CFR 284.123.
-
The rule updates one of the standards of conduct for Commission employees to include a reference to a relevant provision in the Energy Policy Act of 2005. Current 18 CFR 3c.2(a), which prohibits Commission employees from disclosing nonpublic information, contains references to relevant provisions of the Federal Power Act and Natural Gas Act. The revision adds a reference to a similar statutory provision, section 1264(d) of the new Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005, added by the Energy Policy Act, Pub. L. No. 109-58, Sec. 1264(d), 119 Stat. 594, 974 (2005).
-
This rule also makes two changes to the delegations to the Secretary of the Commission contained in 18 CFR 375.302. The first amends Sec. 375.302 to add a new paragraph (y), which delegates to the Secretary the authority to refer complaint proceedings to the Commission's Dispute Resolution Service (DRS). Under the new provision, the Secretary is authorized to direct DRS staff to contact the parties in any complaint proceeding subject to the Commission's jurisdiction so that DRS can assist the parties in determining whether use of an alternative dispute resolution (ADR) process is appropriate to address matters raised in the complaint.\5\ The Secretary is also authorized to establish a date by which DRS must report to the Commission whether an ADR process will be pursued by the parties.
\5\ Under the Commission's existing regulations, complainants are required to state, among other things, whether DRS, the Enforcement Hotline, tariff-based dispute resolution mechanisms, or other informal dispute resolution procedures have been used prior to the filing of the complaint and whether the complainant believes that use of an ADR process could successfully resolve the complaint. See 18 CFR 385.206(b)(9).
-
The second change to the Secretary's delegations, new paragraph (z), allows the Secretary to specify formatting requirements for documents submitted to the Commission on electronic media. Allowing the Secretary to do so, through instructions issued to the public and posted on the Commission's Web site, is more efficient and thus preferable to specifying formats in a regulation. Technological needs and capabilities change frequently. This revision will allow Commission staff to update formats without delay.
-
A minor change is being made to the Commission's regulations on recreational opportunities and development at licensed hydroelectric projects. The provision governing filing of Form No. 80 \6\ is being revised to require filing with the Commission rather than with a Regional Office. This will facilitate electronic filing of the form, which the Commission expects to implement in the near future. In addition, we are eliminating section 8.11(a)(3), which provides that the filer need only update a previously filed form rather than file a completely new form. This change similarly anticipates electronic filing, which will allow prior forms to be easily saved, stored and edited for resubmittal.
\6\ 18 CFR 8.11.
-
The delegation to the Director of External Affairs to take necessary actions in connection with requests under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) \7\ is being deleted. The delegation is unnecessary because the Commission's regulations implementing FOIA afford the Director the needed authority.\8\
\7\ 5 U.S.C. 552 (2006).
\8\ 18 CFR 388.108.
-
A minor clarification is being made to allow the rejection of applications for certificates of public convenience and necessity within ten business days
[[Page 45322]]
rather than ten calendar days.\9\ This parallels similar language in the provision regarding notice of acceptance of an application.\10\
\9\ 18 CFR 157.8(a).
\10\ 18 CFR 157.9.
-
Finally, the Commission's regulations are being revised to correct erroneous or outdated references or language in the following sections: 2.9, 4.30, 4.32, 4.33, 4.41, 4.71, 4.81, 4.92, 4.107, 5.9, 5.18, 6.1, 11.10, 16.12, 16.16, 16.19, 16.22, 131.20, 157.14, 157.209, 375.308, and 388.2201.

-
Information Collection Statement
-
The Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) regulations require that OMB approve certain information collection requirements imposed by agency rule.\11\ This Final Rule does not contain information reporting requirements and is not subject to OMB approval.
\11\ 5 CFR Part 1320.
-
-
Environmental Analysis
-
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 quality of the human environment.\12\ Issuance of this Final Rule does not represent a major federal action having a significant adverse effect on the quality of the human environment under the Commission's regulations implementing the National Environmental Policy Act. Part 380 of the Commission's regulations lists exemptions to the requirement to draft an Environmental Analysis or Environmental Impact Statement. Included is an exemption for procedural, ministerial or internal administrative actions.\13\ This rulemaking is exempt under that provision.

-
Regulatory Flexibility Act
-
The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (RFA) \14\ generally requires a description and analysis of final rules that will have significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. This Final Rule concerns matters of internal agency procedure and the Commission therefore certifies that it will not have such an impact. An analysis under the RFA is not required.

Effective Date and Congressional Notification
-
These regulations are effective immediately upon publication in the Federal Register. In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Commission finds that good cause exists to make this Final Rule effective immediately. It concerns only matters of internal operations or is ministerial in nature and will not affect the rights of persons appearing before the Commission. There is, therefore no reason to make this rule effective at a later time.
-
The provisions of 5 U.S.C. 801 regarding Congressional review of Final Rules do not apply to this Final Rule, because this Final Rule concerns agency procedure and practice and will not substantially affect the rights of non-agency parties.
-
The Commission is issuing this as a Final Rule without a period for public comment. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b), notice and comment procedures are unnecessary where a rulemaking concerns only agency procedure and practice, or where the agency finds that notice and comment is unnecessary. This Final Rule concerns only matters of agency procedure and will not significantly affect regulated entities or the general public.
