Federal Regulations

The National Association of Publicly Traded Partnerships monitors the Treasury Department and other federal agencies for regulations and other guidance affecting PTPs.  Sometimes proposed regulations in the partnership area have an unfavorable impact on PTPs, often because the unique concerns of PTPs have not been considered in developing the regulations.  When that happens, the Association works to modify the regulations so that the final product will be fair and workable for PTPs as well as for other partnerships.

Below are recent federal regulatory issues that have the potential to impact PTPs and the Association's positions.

• FERC Rulemaking on Inclusion of MLPs in Proxy Groups for Ratemaking
  
  
• FERC Rulemaking on Income Tax Allowance
