    Citation:86 FR 8131

    The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission is releasing a final rule to update regulations on the maximum civil monetary penalties for breaking laws under its control. This change is in line with the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act Improvements Act of 2015, which requires annual inflation adjustments. The rule outlines how to calculate the new adjusted penalties, which will take effect immediately upon publication in the Federal Register. The Commission asserts that public notice and comment were not needed due to legal obligations dictating both the method and amount of these adjustments.

    Simple Explanation

    The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission is changing the rules to make sure fines for breaking rules under their watch keep up with inflation, which means the fines will be a little bigger every year to match how things get more expensive. They did this because a law told them they have to, and they didn't need to ask people what they thought first.
