U.S. Code as of:
01/19/04
Section 717i. Periodic and special reports
(a) Form and contents of reports
Every natural-gas company shall file with the Commission such
annual and other periodic or special reports as the Commission may
by rules and regulations or order prescribe as necessary or
appropriate to assist the Commission in the proper administration
of this chapter. The Commission may prescribe the manner and form
in which such reports shall be made, and require from such
natural-gas companies specific answers to all questions upon which
the Commission may need information. The Commission may require
that such reports shall include, among other things, full
information as to assets and liabilities, capitalization,
investment and reduction thereof, gross receipts, interest due and
paid, depreciation, amortization, and other reserves, cost of
facilities, cost of maintenance and operation of facilities for the
production, transportation, or sale of natural gas, cost of renewal
and replacement of such facilities, transportation, delivery, use,
and sale of natural gas. The Commission may require any such
natural-gas company to make adequate provision for currently
determining such costs and other facts. Such reports shall be made
under oath unless the Commission otherwise specifies.
(b) Unlawful conduct
It shall be unlawful for any natural-gas company willfully to
hinder, delay, or obstruct the making, filing, or keeping of any
information, document, report, memorandum, record, or account
required to be made, filed, or kept under this chapter or any rule,
regulation, or order thereunder.
