SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Credit Related Information Sharing Between RTOs/ISOs.
OMB Control No.: 1902-0325.
Type of Request: Three-year extension of the FERC-1005 information
collection requirements with no changes to the on-going reporting
requirements.
Abstract: In 2023, FERC issued the Final Rule in Docket No. RM22-
13-000 for RTOs/ISOs to share credit-related information with each
other to improve their ability to accurately assess market
participants' credit exposure and risks related to their activities
across organized wholesale electric markets. The ability to share such
information also enables RTOs/ISOs to respond to credit events more
quickly and effectively, minimizing the overall credit-related risks of
unexpected defaults by market participants in organized wholesale
electric markets. Examples of the types of information RTOs/ISOs are
allowed include: (1) lists of market participants with positions in
that market; (2) reports and metrics around risk and credit exposures;
(3) disclosure that a market participant or affiliate has defaulted on
any of its financial or contractual obligations, failed to pay invoices
on a timely basis, or failed to meet a collateral call; (4) information
regarding a market participant's or its affiliate's unresolved credit/
collateral issues; (5) information indicating that a market participant
or its affiliate has an increased risk of default, such as instances
where a market participant or its affiliate has experienced a material
adverse condition or material adverse change under an RTO/ISO OATT or
related agreement; and (6) any other information on a market
participant or its affiliate that indicates a possible material adverse
change in creditworthiness or financial status or an unreasonable
credit risk.
The rule did not create an information collection that is submitted
to FERC, rather it permits RTOs/ISOs to share information and directed
RTOs/ISOs to update their tariff provisions to include processes and
procedures to do so. This process has been completed, which is why the
Commission is removing the burden related to this action. The remaining
burden is associated with facilitating the information sharing between
entities in accordance with each RTO's/ISO's processes and procedures.
Type of Respondents: RTOs/ISOs.
Estimate of Annual Burden: \1\ The Commission estimates the annual
public reporting burden for the information collection as:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\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 further explanation of what is included in the
information collection burden, reference 5 Code of Federal
Regulations 1320.3.

Comments: Comments are invited on: (1) whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of
the Commission, including whether the information will have practical
utility; (2) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden and
cost of the collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality,
utility and clarity of the information collection; and (4) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are
to respond, including the use of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ The Commission staff estimates that industry is similarly
situated in terms of hourly cost (for wages plus benefits). Based on
the Commission's FY (Fiscal Year) 2026 average cost (for wages plus
benefits), $102/hour is used.
