Electronic Filing of FERC Form No. 1 and Delegation to Chief Accountant Order No. 574

摘要

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission is amending its regulations to provide for the electronic filing of FERC Form No. 1, Annual Report of Major electric utilities, licensees and others. Commencing with the report for reporting year 1994, due on or before April 30, 1995, filing will be required in the form of a computer diskette in addition to the currently required number of paper copies. No changes are being made to the FERC Form No. 1 itself. The Commission has concluded that the automation of Form 1 filing will yield significant benefits, including more timely analysis and publication of data, increased data analysis capability, reduced cost of data entry and retrieval, simplification of form design, and overall reduction of reporting burden.
