BPA owns and operates the 230-kV RoundupLaGrande transmission line that crosses the proposed Coyote Business Park site. The portion of the transmission line that crosses the business park site is supported by 12 wooden ‘‘H-frame’’ structures, each about 60 feet tall. The Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation (CTUIR) has requested that BPA remove these structures and replace them with single steel poles about 110 feet tall. Taller steel poles will increase the clearance between the ground and the conductors and reduce the footprint of the line, thus expanding CTUIR’s options for future parking and transportation needs. BPA has decided to remove and replace these structures. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Issued in Portland, Oregon, on March 5, 2007. Stephen J. Wright, Administrator and Chief Executive Officer. [FR Doc.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Capacity Reports On April 4, 1992 in Order No. 636, the Commission established a capacity release mechanism under which shippers could release firm transportation and storage capacity on either a short or long term basis to other shippers wanting to obtain capacity. Pipelines posted available firm and interruptible capacity information on their electronic bulletin boards (EBBs) to inform potential shippers. On September 11, 1992, in Order No. 636A, the Commission determined, through staff audits, that the efficiency of the capacity release mechanism could be enhanced by standardizing the content and format of capacity release information and the methods by which shippers access this information, posted to EBBs. On April 4, 1995 through Order No. 577 (RM95–5–000), the Commission amended § 284.243(h) of its regulations to allow shippers the ability to release capacity without having to comply with the Commission’s advance posting and bidding requirements. To create greater substitution between different forms of capacity and to enhance competition across the pipeline grid, on February 25, 2000 in Order No. 637, the Commission revised its capacity release regulations regarding scheduling, segmentation and flexible receipt point rights, penalties, and reporting requirements. This resulted in more reliable capacity information and price data being available that shippers needed to make informed decisions in a competitive market as well as to improve shipper’s and the Commission’s availability to monitor marketplace behavior. Index of Customers In Order No. 581 issued September 28, 1995 the Commission established E:\FR\FM\19MRN1.SGM 19MRN1
