SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Title: FERC Form No. 73, Oil Pipeline

FERC Form No. 73 contains necessary

implements these filing reviews under
the purview of 18 CFR part 357.3, FERC
Form No. 73, Oil Pipeline Data for
Depreciation Analysis, and 18 CFR part
347. Parts 357.3 and 347 require an oil
pipeline company to submit information
under FERC Form No. 73 when: (1)
Requesting approval for new or changed
depreciation rates of an oil pipeline; or
(2) being directed by the Commission to
file the service life data during an
investigation of its book depreciation
rates.
On April 16, 2020, the Commission
published a Notice in the Federal
Register in Docket No. IC20–12–000
