Documents & Filing Questions and Answers
1. I don't have our customer's DUNS number. How do I find that information?
You can:
- Call the customer and ask; or
- Download the EQR submissions of companies that have the same or similar customers
and find the numbers submitted by that company; or o research
http://reg.tsin.com/, select the Query TSIN Registry link to search
for the company for which
you need a DUNS; or
- Call Dun and Bradstreet. For a fee they will provide the number to you.
The correct format for reporting a DUNS number is a maximum of
9 numerals. No dashes. No slashes.
2. I don't have a Contract Service Agreement ID number
to put in fields 20 and 51 of the EQR. What should I do?
If you don't have a FERC-assigned
Contract Service Agreement ID to display, you must designate one.
3. Our Contract
information does not specify a rate, rate minimum, rate maximum
or rate description (fields 34, 35, 36, 37), and yet one of those
four fields is required for input in the EQR. What should I do?
If you have Market-Based
Rate Authority, enter Market-Based in field 36. Or, if the contract
has
no specific rate cited for the product or service, you can enter
None in that field. If a formula is used, enter it in the Rate Description field.
4.
Our Contract information does not include point of receipt or delivery specific
locations or control areas. What should I put in those fields?
Fields,
39, 40, 41 and 42, are not required fields. If your contract does not
detail the information, leave the fields blank.
5. I don't have any data to report
in the Total Transmission Charge field. Why can't I enter N/A?
That
field requires a numeric value. If there is no transmission charge to report,
enter a 0 (zero) in the field.
6. The Extension Provision Description field in
Contract Data is a required field. What do I enter if a contract
doesn't have an Extension Provision?
This is a free text field. Enter None or
N/A.
7. What can I enter into any Required field when I don't have data for
it?
In
non-numeric fields, you can enter N/A or Other depending on the field. (Look
at the User's Guide or drop-down list in the system to see what is allowed.)
However, in the two character Contract and Transaction Time Zone fields you can
enter NA. In required numeric fields, enter a zero. In a non-required field,
leave it blank.
