Energy Department, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission — observed across 2 documents over 64 days. Use the source documents below before deciding whether this affects your business.

In plain English

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission is combining some of its information collection activities together and extending how long they can use them, and wants feedback from the public on whether that works. If your company handles energy, utilities, or natural gas, review the proposed changes by September 28 and tell the agency if merging these forms or keeping them longer would be difficult for your business.
