PART 260_STATEMENTS AND REPORTS (SCHEDULES)--Table of Contents
 
Sec. 260.8  System flow diagrams: Format No. FERC 567.

    (a) Each Major natural gas pipeline company, having a system 
delivery capacity in excess of 100,000 Mcf per day (measured at 14.73 
p.s.i.a. and 60[deg] F.), shall file with the Commission by June 1 of 
each year five (5) copies of a diagram or diagrams reflecting operating 
conditions on its main transmission system during the previous twelve 
months ended December 31. For purposes of system peak deliveries, the 
heating season overlapping the year's end shall be used. Facilities 
shall be those installed and in operation on December 31 of the 
reporting year. All volumes shall be reported on a uniform stated 
pressure and temperature base.
    (b) The diagram or diagrams shall include the following items of 
information:
    (1) Nominal diameter (inches) of each pipeline.
    (2) Miles of pipeline (to nearest 0.1 mile) between points of 
intake, delivery, river crossings, storage fields, crossovers, 
compressor stations and connections with other pipeline companies.
    (3) Direction of flow in the pipelines. If direction of flow can be 
reversed at compressor stations, so indicate.
    (4) Maximum permissible operating pressure for each pipeline at 
discharge side of each compressor station or other critical point, 
determined by the Department of Transportation's safety standards.
    (5) Total horsepower of compressor engines installed at each 
compressor station.
    (6) Designed suction pressure for each compressor station, p.s.i.g.
    (7) Designed discharge pressure for each station, p.s.i.g.
    (8) Maximum volume, Mcf per day that can be compressed at each 
compressor station under conditions of suction and discharge set forth 
in paragraphs (b) (6) and (7) of this section. If direction of flow 
affects these factors provide the information for each direction of 
flow.
    (9) The fuel requirement at each compressor station under conditions 
described in paragraph (b)(8) of this section.
    (10) Pressure in the pipeline at points of emergency interconnection 
with other pipeline companies which can normally be expected to exist, 
and the

volume which could be delivered or received at such emergency 
interconnection points at such pressures. Give the name of the 
interconnecting company.
    (11) For each storage field, connected to the system and operated by 
the respondent pipeline company, the maximum dependable daily and 
seasonal withdrawal volumes available under normal conditions of 
operation.
    (12) Volumes delivered: (i) The average daily volumes delivered at 
each takeoff point, (ii) the volumes delivered at each takeoff point on 
the day of maximum coincidental delivery, and (iii) the maximum daily 
volumes (noncoincidental) delivered to each customer under rates subject 
to FERC jurisdiction.
    (13) The average daily volume received at each intake point to the 
transmission pipeline system.
    (14) The volume received into the transmission pipeline system at 
each intake point on the day of maximum coincidental delivery.
    (15) The information required by paragraphs (b)(12), (13) and (14), 
of this section may be furnished in tabular form, or by reference to 
FERC Form No. 2, providing, that the information is suitably keyed to 
the diagram by appropriate identifying symbol or number.
