FERC-545A is required to implement sections 4, 5, and 16 of the Natural Gas Act (NGA), (15 USC 717c, 717d and -717o, PL 75 688, 52 Stat. 822 and 830). NGA Sections 4, 5, and 6 authorize the Commission to inquire into rate structures and methodologies and to set rates at a just and reasonable level. Specifically, a natural gas company must obtain Commission authorization for all rates and charges made, demanded, or received in connection with the transportation or sale of natural gas in interstate commerce. [NOTE: The information collection requirements (ICR) would normally be included in FERC-545 (OMB Control No.:1902-0154). The Commission used FERC-545 in the NOPR in Docket RM96-1-038. However, another unrelated item (in Docket PL15-1) is currently pending OMB review under FERC-545, and only one item per OMB Control Number can be pending OMB review at a time. This submittal to OMB for the NOPR in RM96-1-038 will be made under a temporary collection number (and temporary placeholder), FERC-545A (OMB Control No. 1902-TBD), to enable FERC to submit this package timely to OMB for review under the Paperwork Reduction Act. Long-term, the FERC-545A reporting and recordkeeping requirements will be included in FERC-545.]

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) is proposing to amend its regulations to incorporate by reference, with certain enumerated exceptions, the latest version (Version 3.0) of business practice standards adopted by the Wholesale Gas Quadrant of the North American Energy Standards Board (NAESB) applicable to natural gas pipelines. These revisions, in part, revise the codes used to identify receipt and delivery locations in the Index of Customers. In addition, for consistency with the revisions to the Index of Customers, the Commission is proposing certain conforming changes to the Commission's regulations on exhibits and on system flow diagrams.
