Documents & Filing Questions and Answers
1. Why do I need an EQR Pin Code?
It is an exclusive number which
allows the EQR database to accept your filing. Passwords for eFilings
are not affected by this PIN Code issuance. This is to ensure that
no one else
can submit data for your company.
2. Is the PIN Code issued to the
Agent or the Respondent?
PINS are usually sent to Respondent companies.
If you are a Respondent that has not received a PIN code, email
FERC at eqr@ferc.gov and request one. Include the name of the entity along with the docket number under which the entity is authorized by FERC to sell power (i.e.: ER00-0000).
3. I have completed filing but how do I know I have
filed successfully?
The Respondent and Agent email addresses provided
in the Filer ID Data will both receive a confirmation email. Usually
the confirmation will be
received by the next business day. However, due to filing volume,
submissions made
on or close to the quarterly deadline can be delayed. If you do
not receive an email within 1-2 business days,
you should resubmit your EQR during non-peak business hours.
4.
With past eFilings, I received a total of three emails; a Notice
of Receipt; a Notice of Acknowledgment; and a Notice of Acceptance.
After I file my
EQR report, is the FERC confirmation email the only acknowledgment
I should expect from the system?
Yes. You will receive only one EQR
email which confirms receipt of your EQR filing. The edit checks
which are done at FERC for eFiling (the
first two are automated and the third one is performed manually)
are all done on your
computer in the EQR system before the EQR file can be submitted
to FERC.
