Pacific Alternating Current Intertie
Project; Schedule of Rate for
Transmission Service
Effective: September 1, 2006, through
September 30, 2009.
Available: Within the marketing area
served by the Sierra Nevada Customer
Service Region.
Applicable: To Customers receiving
the Pacific Alternating Current Intertie
(PACI) firm and/or non-firm
transmission service.
Character and Conditions of Service:
Transmission service for three-phase,
alternating current at 60 hertz, delivered
and metered at the voltages and points
of delivery or receipt, adjusted for
losses, and delivered to points of
delivery. This service includes
scheduling and system control and
dispatch service needed to support the
transmission service.
Formula Rate: The formula rate for
PACI firm and non-firm transmission
service includes three components:
Component 1:
PACI TRR
Western’s PACI Seasonal Capacity
rwilkins on PROD1PC61 with NOTICES
Where:
PACI TRR = PACI Seasonal Transmission
Revenue Requirement, the Western Area
Power Administration’s (Western) costs
associated with facilities that support the
transfer capability of the PACI.
Western’s PACI Seasonal Capacity =
Western’s share of PACI capacity (subject
to curtailment) under the then current
California-Oregon Intertie (COI) transfer
capability for the season. Seasonal
definitions for summer, winter, and
spring are June through October,
November through March, and April
through May, respectively.
Western will update the rate from
Component 1 of the formula rate for
PACI firm transmission service at least
15 days before the start of each COI
rating season. Rate change notifications
will be posted on the Open Access
Same-Time Information System.
Component 2: Any charges or credits
associated with the creation,
termination, or modification to any
tariff, contract, or rate schedule
accepted or approved by the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission
(Commission) or other regulatory body

Commission or other regulatory body
accepted or approved charges or credits
cannot be passed through directly to the
appropriate Customer in the same
manner Western is charged or credited,
the charges or credits will be passed
through using Component 1 of the PACI
transmission service formula rate.
Component 3: Any charges or credits
from the Host Control Area (HCA)
applied to Western for providing this
service will be passed through directly
to the appropriate Customer in the same
manner Western is charged or credited,
to the extent possible. If the HCA costs
or credits cannot be passed through to
the appropriate Customer, the charges or
credits will be passed through using
Component 1 of the PACI transmission
service formula rate.
Billing: The formula rate above
applies to the maximum amount of
capacity reserved for periods ranging
from 1 hour to 1 month, payable
whether used or not. Billing will occur
monthly.
Adjustment for Losses: Losses
incurred for service under this rate
schedule will be accounted for as agreed
to by the parties in accordance with the
service agreement.
Adjustment for Audit Adjustments:
Financial audit adjustments that apply
to the revenue requirement under this
rate schedule will be evaluated on a
case-by-case basis to determine the
appropriate treatment for repayment
and cash flow management.
