Additionally, the Commission proposes to amend its current regulations governing certain FERC financial forms. The Commission proposes to update FERC Annual Report Form Nos. 1, 1-F, 2, 2-A, 6, and 60 and FERC Quarterly Report Form Nos. 3-Q and 6-Q. Specifically, the Commission proposes to update the general filing instructions and certain schedule instructions to reflect current reporting requirements and correct discrepancies. Additionally, the Commission proposes to eliminate certain schedules from FERC Form Nos. 3-Q and 6-Q. The Commission also proposes to revise the regulation for FERC Form No. 6-Q to clarify that oil pipelines with annual jurisdictional operating revenues below $500,000 are exempt from filing the quarterly form. These changes to the quarterly forms would reduce the reporting burden for jurisdictional entities.","document_number":"2026-12712","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/06/24/2026-12712/revisions-to-financial-forms-reporting-and-filing-requirements","pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-06-24/pdf/2026-12712.pdf","public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2026-12712.pdf?1782218720","publication_date":"2026-06-24","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY","name":"Energy Department","id":136,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/energy-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/136","parent_id":null,"slug":"energy-department"},{"raw_name":"Federal Energy Regulatory Commission","name":"Federal Energy Regulatory Commission","id":167,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/federal-energy-regulatory-commission","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/167","parent_id":136,"slug":"federal-energy-regulatory-commission"}],"excerpts":"1 (<span class=\"match\">Annual</span> <span class=\"match\">Report</span> of Major Electric Utilities, <span class=\"match\">Licensees</span>, and Others), 1-F (<span class=\"match\">Annual</span> <span class=\"match\">Report</span> for Nonmajor Public Utilities and <span class=\"match\">Licensees</span>),\n 1 \n \n 2 (<span class=\"match\">Annual</span> <span class=\"match\">Report</span> for Major Natural Gas Companies), 2-A (<span class=\"match\">Annual</span> <span class=\"match\">Report</span> for Non-Major Natural Gas Companies),\n 2 \n \n 3-Q (electric) (Quarterly Financial <span class=\"match\">Report</span> of Electric Utilities and <span class=\"match\">Licensees</span>),\n 3 \n \n 3-Q (gas) (Quarterly Financial <span class=\"match\">Report</span> of Natural Gas Companies),\n 4 \n \n 6 (<span class=\"match\">Annual</span> <span class=\"match\">Report</span> of Oil Pipeline Companies),\n 5 \n \n 6-Q (Quarterly <span class=\"match\">Report</span> of Oil Pipeline Companies),\n 6 \n \n and 60 (<span class=\"match\">Annual</span> <span class=\"match\">Report</span> of"},{"title":"Review of Foreign Ownership Policies for Broadcast, Common Carrier and Aeronautical Radio Licensees","type":"Rule","abstract":"In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) adopted a Report and Order to update foreign ownership rules for common carrier and broadcast licensees to clarify the Commission's review under section 310(b) of the Communications Act of 1934.

The Report and Order adopts a requirement for certain licensees to file an annual report about the licensee, submarine cable system ownership, and submarine cable operations. The Report and Order adopts a one-time information collection for licensees to identify, among other things, how many entities currently own or operate submarine line terminal equipment (SLTEs) on existing licensed cable systems. The Report and Order also requires applicants and licensees to certify that they have created, updated, and implemented a cybersecurity and physical security risk management plan and requires applicants to certify that the submarine cable system will not use equipment or services identified on the Commission's Covered List.

The FNPRM proposes a regulatory framework that would grant a blanket license to entities that own or operate Submarine Line Terminal Equipment (SLTEs), subject to certain exclusions and routine conditions, such as a tailored foreign adversary annual report. The FNPRM proposes new certifications and routine conditions related to foreign adversaries to further protect submarine cables from national security risks. The FNPRM also proposes an approach to expedite deployment of submarine cables that connect to the United States by presumptively excluding submarine cable applications from referral to the relevant Executive Branch agencies if they meet certain standards. The FNPRM seeks comment on requiring existing licensees to remove from their submarine cable system covered equipment or services, within a specified timeframe prior to the expiration of the license. The FNPRM also seeks comment on how the Commission can use its authority to incentivize and encourage the adoption and the use of trusted technologies produced and provided by the United States and its foreign allies.","document_number":"2025-19657","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2025/10/27/2025-19657/review-of-submarine-cable-landing-license-rules-and-procedures-to-assess-evolving-national-security","pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2025-10-27/pdf/2025-19657.pdf","public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2025-19657.pdf?1761309905","publication_date":"2025-10-27","agencies":[{"raw_name":"FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION","name":"Federal Communications Commission","id":161,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/federal-communications-commission","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/161","parent_id":null,"slug":"federal-communications-commission"}],"excerpts":"the criteria to <span class=\"match\">file</span> a Foreign Adversary <span class=\"match\">Annual</span> <span class=\"match\">Report</span> and an SLTE Foreign Adversary <span class=\"match\">Annual</span> <span class=\"match\">Report</span> (as both a <span class=\"match\">licensee</span> under § 1.70003(a) or (b) and an SLTE owner and operator) should <span class=\"match\">file</span> both <span class=\"match\">reports</span> every year.
