ensure that the prices are just and
reasonable, maintain the integrity of the
wholesale jurisdictional sales markets,
and ensure that the entities comply with
the requirements of the FPA and any
orders authorizing market-based rate
sales. FERC–915 information collection
requirements are contained in 18 Code
of Federal Regulations part 35.41(d).
Type of Respondents: Public Utility
Market-Based Rate Authorization
Holders.

2 The estimates for cost per response are derived using the following formula: Average Burden Hours per Response * $30.66 per Hour = Average Cost per Response. The hourly cost figure comes from the Bureau of Labor Statistics Web site (http://www.bls.gov/oes/current/naics2_
22.htm). The occupation title is ‘‘file clerk’’ and the occupation code is 43–4071. 69.4 percent of this cost is hourly wages. The rest of the cost is
benefits (http://www.bls.gov/news.release/ecec.nr0.htm).

The total estimated annual cost
burden to respondents is: $416,293

1 The Commission defines burden as the total
time, effort, or financial resources expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or
provide information to or for a Federal agency. For
