Federal Energy Regulatory Commission


Notice of Guidelines for Submission of CDs, DVDs, and Other 
Electronic Media

April 12, 2007.
    Take notice that the Commission is issuing notice of guidelines for 
submission of CDs, DVDs and other electronic media. An increasing 
number of traditionally paper documents submitted to the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission (FERC) are now accompanied by one or more CDs, 
DVDs or other electronic media that contain all or part of the 
submission, or contain supplements to the submission. These guidelines 
address such submissions and require that, among other things, the CDs/
DVDs contain the entire submission.
    These guidelines apply to documents that cannot be submitted 
through any of the Commission's existing electronic gateways: The 
eFiling system, the eForms system, or the Electric Quarterly Reports 
(EQR) system. They thus are primarily intended for larger filings and 
those filings that contain Privileged, Critical Energy Infrastructure 
(CEII), or Non-Internet Public (NIP) information.
    Persons following these guidelines will be granted an automatic 
waiver of the number of paper copies and may instead submit the 
requisite number of copies of a filing on CD/DVD and reduce the number 
of paper copies to an original and two copies in most cases. These 
guidelines do not change any FERC requirements concerning service of 
submissions on customers, parties, or other persons.
    The guidelines will be posted at: http://www.ferc.gov/help/submission-guide.asp and updated when necessary to reflect revised 
procedures or changes in media.

Kimberly D. Bose,
 Secretary.
