The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) is inviting public comments on extending the information collection requirements for four types of applications and reports, without changes to current requirements. This includes FERC-519 for public utility mergers and acquisitions, FERC-520 for interlocking directorates, FERC-546 for gas pipeline rates, and FERC-580 for fuel and energy purchases. Comments are due by April 4, 2025, and can be submitted online or by mail. The Commission emphasizes the importance of these collections for fulfilling its regulatory duties under the Federal Power Act and Natural Gas Act.
Simple Explanation
The government agency that takes care of energy rules wants to keep using some forms that help them make sure everything is running smoothly, like when companies want to team up or check on their energy stuff. They're asking people to tell them what they think about using these forms, and they need to hear back by a certain date next year.
