SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The transmission facilities in the P–SMBP— ED are integrated with transmission facilities of Basin Electric Power Cooperative (Basin) and Heartland Consumers Power District (Heartland) such that transmission services are provided over an integrated transmission system, called the Integrated System (IS), and the rates are sometimes referred to as IS Rates. Western acts as the administrator of the IS and monitors service under the OATT.1 As owners of the IS, Western, Basin, and Heartland may be referred to as IS Partners. ADDRESSES: 1 Western’s OATT was most recently approved by FERC on June 28, 2007, in Docket No. NJ07–2–000, 119 FERC ¶61,329 (2007) and the FERC’s letter order issued on September 6, 2007, in Docket No. NJ07–2–001. PO 00000 Frm 00068 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 30567 Proposed Penalty Rate for Unreserved Use of Transmission Service Unreserved Use of Transmission Service is provided when a Transmission Customer uses transmission service that it has not reserved or uses transmission service in excess of its reserved capacity. A Transmission Customer that has not secured reserved capacity or exceeds its firm or non-firm reserved capacity at any point of receipt or any point of delivery will be assessed Unreserved Use Penalties. The penalty charge for a Transmission Customer that engages in Unreserved Use is 200 percent of Western’s approved transmission service rate for point-to-point transmission service assessed as follows: (i) The Unreserved Use Penalty for a single hour of unreserved use will be based upon the rate for daily firm pointto-point service. (ii) The Unreserved Use Penalty for more than one assessment for a given duration (e.g., daily) will increase to the next longest duration (e.g., weekly). (iii) The Unreserved Use Penalty charge for multiple instances of unreserved use (for example, more than 1 hour) within a day will be based on the rate for daily firm point-to-point service. The penalty charge for multiple instances of unreserved use isolated to 1 calendar week would result in a penalty based on the charge for weekly firm point-to-point service. The penalty charge for multiple instances of unreserved use during more than 1 week during a calendar month is based on the charge for monthly firm point-topoint service. A Transmission Customer that exceeds its firm reserved capacity at any Point of Receipt or Point of Delivery or an Eligible Customer that uses Transmission Service at a Point of Receipt or Point of Delivery that it has not reserved is required to pay for all Ancillary Services identified in Western’s OATT that were provided by Western and associated with the unreserved service on the IS system. The Transmission Customer or Eligible Customer will pay for Ancillary Services based on the amount of transmission service it used, but did not reserve. Unreserved Use Penalties collected over and above the base point-to-point transmission service charge will be credited against the IS Annual Transmission Revenue Requirement (ATRR). For example, if a Transmission Customer has unreserved use that results in a penalty equal to twice the rate for firm weekly point-to-point E:\FR\FM\26JNN1.SGM 26JNN1
