SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Petroleum Marketing Program consists
of the following surveys:
• EIA–14, ‘‘Refiners’ Monthly Cost
Report;’’
• EIA–182, ‘‘Domestic Crude Oil First
Purchase Report;’’
• EIA–782A, ‘‘Refiners’/Gas Plant
Operators’ Monthly Petroleum Product
Sales Report;’’

Prime Supplier Sales of Petroleum
Products Sold For Local Consumption;’’
• EIA–821, ‘‘Annual Fuel Oil and
Kerosene Sales Report;’’
• EIA–856, ‘‘Monthly Foreign Crude
Oil Acquisition Report;’’
• EIA–863, ‘‘Petroleum Product Sales
Identification Survey;’’
• EIA–877, ‘‘Winter Heating Fuels
Telephone Survey;’’
• EIA–878, ‘‘Motor Gasoline Price
Survey;’’
• EIA–888, ‘‘On-Highway Diesel Fuel
Price Survey.’’
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology.
This information collection request
contains: (1) OMB No. 1905–0174; (2)
Information Collection Request Title:
Petroleum Marketing Program; (3) Type
of Request: Revision of a currently
approved collection; (4) Purpose: The
Federal Energy Administration Act of
1974 (15 U.S.C. 761 et seq.) and the DOE
Organization Act (42 U.S.C. 7101 et
seq.) require EIA to carry out a
centralized, comprehensive, and unified
energy information program. This
program collects, evaluates, assembles,
analyzes, and disseminates information
on energy resource reserves, production,
demand, technology, and related
economic and statistical information.
This information is used to assess the
adequacy of energy resources to meet
near and longer term domestic
demands.
EIA, as part of its effort to comply
with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:32 Mar 31, 2017
Jkt 241001
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.), provides
the general public and other Federal
agencies with opportunities to comment
on collections of energy information
conducted by or in conjunction with
EIA. Also, EIA will later seek approval
for this collection by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) under
Section 3507(a) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995.
EIA’s petroleum marketing survey
forms collect volumetric and price
information needed for determining the
supply of and demand for crude oil and
refined petroleum products. These
surveys provide a basic set of data
pertaining to the structure, efficiency,
and behavior of petroleum markets.
These data are published by EIA on its
Web site, http://www.eia.gov, as well as
in publications such as the Monthly
Energy Review (http://www.eia.gov/
totalenergy/data/monthly/), Annual
Energy Review (http://www.eia.gov/
totalenergy/data/annual/), Petroleum
Marketing Monthly (http://www.eia.gov/

and the International Energy Outlook
(http://www.eia.gov/forecasts/ieo/); (4a)
Proposed Changes to Information
Collection:
Form EIA–878: Motor Gasoline Price
Survey
EIA is proposing to collect annual
sales volumes of motor gasoline by
regular, midgrade, and premium grades
on Form EIA–878, ‘‘Motor Gasoline
Price Survey’’ on a triennial basis. This
survey collects weekly retail gasoline
prices from a sample of gasoline stations
and publishes price estimates at various
regional, state, and city levels. EIA is
updating its frame of retail gasoline
outlets and proposing to re-select the
sample of retail outlets using a new
sample design. EIA will use annual
sales volumes of motor gasoline to
determine the measure of size and
weights for the new outlets selected to
report in the sample. EIA will obtain
annual sales volume from corporate
offices of suppliers of whole sale and
retail gasoline, hypermarkets, and
individual station owners in the sample.
The new sample will replace the current
sample that reports on Form EIA–878.
In the alternative, EIA is also
considering to eliminate this survey due
to budget constraints. In the event this
survey is eliminated EIA may utilize
third party price data for information on
retail gasoline prices. EIA solicits
comments on both proposals, to select a
PO 00000
Frm 00024
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
16179
new sample using annual retail sales
volumes as the sample weights; or
discontinue Form EIA–878.
Form EIA–182: Domestic Crude Oil
First Purchase Report
EIA is proposing to replace ‘‘North
Dakota Sweet’’ crude stream with
‘‘North Dakota Bakken’’ crude stream on
Form EIA–182, ‘‘Domestic Crude Oil
First Purchase Report.’’ Due to increased
crude oil production of the Bakken
crude steam, this replacement will
provide more accurate price estimates
for an important domestic crude stream.
Forms EIA–863, EIA–878, and EIA–888
EIA proposes a permanent change in
its statistical confidentiality pledge to
respondents to Forms EIA–863, EIA–
878, and EIA–888. EIA revised its
confidentiality pledge to respondents to
Forms EIA–863, EIA–878, and EIA–888
in an emergency Federal Register notice
released on January 12, 2017 in 82 FR
3764. These revisions were required by
provisions of the Federal Cybersecurity
Enhancement Act of 2015 (pub. L. 114–
11, Division N. Title II Subtitle B, Sec.
223). This Act, among other provisions,
permits and requires DHS to provide
Federal civilian agencies’ information
technology systems with cybersecurity
protection for their Internet traffic.
Federal statistics provide key
information that the Nation uses to
measure its performance and make
informed choices about budgets, energy,
employment, health, investments, taxes,
and a host of other significant topics.
Strong and trusted confidentiality and
exclusively statistical use pledges under
the Confidential Information Protection
and Statistical Efficiency Act (CIPSEA)
and similar statistical confidentiality
pledges are effective and necessary in
honoring the trust that businesses,
individuals, and institutions, by their
responses, place in statistical agencies.
In this notice EIA proposes to make this
change permanent and use the following
EIA statistical confidentiality pledge to
protect information collected on Forms
EIA–863, EIA–878, and EIA–888.
‘‘The information you provide on this
survey form will be used for statistical
purposes only and is confidential by law. In
accordance with the Confidential Information
Protection and Statistical Efficiency Act of
2002 and other applicable Federal laws, your
responses will not be disclosed in
identifiable form without your consent. Per
the Federal Cybersecurity Enhancement Act
of 2015, Federal information systems are
protected from malicious activities through
cybersecurity screening of transmitted data.
Every EIA employee, as well as every agent,
is subject to a jail term, a fine, or both if he
or she makes public ANY identifiable
information you reported.’’

Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 62 / Monday, April 3, 2017 / Notices
Data reported on Forms EIA–878 and
EIA–888 are collected over the
telephone. These two surveys have a
shorter version of the CIPSEA pledge
that is read to the respondent over the
telephone. EIA is proposing to
permanently modify the pledge
provided to respondents over the
telephone to read:
The information you provide on Form EIAxxx will be used for statistical purposes only.
Your responses will be kept confidential and
will not be disclosed in identifiable form. Per
the Federal Cybersecurity Enhancement Act
of 2015, Federal information systems are
protected from malicious activities through
cybersecurity screening of transmitted data.
By law, every EIA employee, as well as every
agent, is subject to a jail term, a fine, or both
if he or she makes public ANY identifiable
information you reported.’’
EIA–877: Winter Heating Fuels
Telephone Survey
EIA is proposing to add annual sales
volumes of residential heating oil for
statistical estimation purposes. This
survey collects annual volumes of
propane and residential heating oil and
propane prices during the heating
season. The accuracy of the price
estimates of heating oil will improve by
having annual volumes of heating oil as
a reliable measure for calculating
weighted average point-in-time price
estimates. (5) Annual Estimated Number
of Respondents: 10,578 Respondents; (6)
Annual Estimated Number of Total
Responses: 125,490; (7) Annual
Estimated Number of Burden Hours:
48,777 hours; (8) Annual Estimated
Reporting and Recordkeeping Cost
Burden: $3,775,000. The cost of the
burden hours is estimated to be
$3,592,914 (48,777 burden hours times
$73.66 per hour). EIA estimates that
there are no additional costs to
respondents associated with the surveys
other than the costs associated with the
burden hours.
