Documents & Filing Forms
Form 3-Q and Form 6-Q
The Commission software that respondents are required to use to
file quarterly financial reports (FERC Form Nos. 3-Q and 6-Q) will
be made available in the form of automatic updates to software currently
used to file FERC Annual Reports by entities in the electric, gas,
and oil industries—no additional installation of software
will be required.
Respondents that file a FERC Annual Report Form No. 1-F can access
and download the Form 1 reporting software at http://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/forms/form-1/elec-subm-soft.asp
now so they can later receive the automatic updates. Respondents
should begin collecting quarterly financial information in anticipation
of preparing their submission when the software updates are released.
FERC plans to make the updates available for quarterly financial
reporting by June 30, 2004, though it may release
the updates sooner based on the results of internal testing currently
underway.
External Beta testing will commence on June 4, 2004. Voluntary Beta
testers will be notified via e-mail regarding procedures they will
follow during the testing process. Beta testers should direct all
communications to Brian Holmes, brian.holmes@ferc.gov.
Other respondents that have specific software issues or need additional
help in accessing or in filing the quarterly financial reports may
contact FERC Online Support via email, ferconlinesupport@ferc.gov
or by phone, 1-866-208-3676. Form 1-F filers should contact Craig
Hill, craighill@ferc.gov,
to obtain a PIN needed to file their quarterly financial reports.
From FERC’s site on the Internet, www.ferc.gov , quarterly
financial reports will be available in the eLibrary.
The public version of the Form 3-Q and 6-Q database will be available
for partial or complete download to client sites and may be viewed
with the Form Viewer software available for download at FERC:
forms in late July 2004.
