BILLING CODE 6717-01-P DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Federal Energy Regulatory Commission [Docket No. IC18-5-000] Corrected Errata Notice AGENCY: Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, DOE. ACTION: Corrected errata and comment request. SUMMARY: In compliance with the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act
(PRA)of 1995, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission or FERC) is submitting the information collections FERC-917 (Non-discriminatory Open Access Transmission Tariff) and FERC-918 (Information to be posted on OASIS & Auditing Transmission Service Information) to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB)for review of the information collection requirements. Any interested person may file comments directly with OMB and should address a copy of those comments to the Commission as explained below. The Commission published 60-day and 30-day notices (in the **Federal Register** on February 6, 2018, and May 9, 2018, respectively), for the renewal of the FERC-917 and FERC-918 information collections. Both notices requested comments on FERC-917 and FERC-918 and indicated the Commission will submit the information collections to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB)for review. The cost information was inadvertently omitted from the Notices. Due to this oversight, we provided an additional 15 days for comments, which are due June 27, 2018. In addition, some figures included in the Errata Notice (published in the **Federal Register** on June 12, 2018) are being corrected in this Notice. Any interested person may file comments directly with OMB and should address a copy of those comments to the Commission as explained below. (There are no changes to the information collections.) DATES: Comments on the collections of information are due by June 27, 2018.

For reporting requirements, the skill sets are assumed to contribute equally, so the hourly cost is an average [($143.68 + $89.00 + $63.49 + $40.89 + $68.12 + $66.34 + $32.74) ÷ 7 = $72.04]. The figure is rounded to $72.00 per hour. For recordkeeping requirements, the hourly cost for a file clerk ($32.74) is used. 3 ATC-related standards include: Implementation by each utility (Reporting), NERC/NAESB Team to develop (Reporting), and Review and comment by utility (Reporting).
