Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 186 / Monday, September 28, 2009 / Notices
Section 529 of the Energy
Independence and Security Act of 2007
(EISA) 1 directed the Commission to
develop a National Action Plan on
Demand Response (National Action
Plan). The purpose of these technical
conferences is to elicit further input
from interested stakeholders on the
possible elements of the National Action
Plan as discussed in the Discussion
Draft on Possible Elements of a National
Action Plan on Demand Response
(Discussion Draft) to be released for
comment prior to the technical
conferences. The Discussion Draft will
be noticed at https://www.ferc.gov when
it is available. In addition, the
Commission seeks input from a broad
range of industry stakeholders, state
regulatory utility commissioners, and
non-governmental groups regarding the
best ways to meet the objectives that
Congress identified for the National
Action Plan: (1) Identification of
requirements for technical assistance to
States to allow them to maximize the
amount of demand response resources
that can be developed and deployed; (2)
design and identification of
requirements for implementation of a
national communications program that
includes broad-based customer
education and support; (3) development
or identification of analytical tools,
information, model regulatory
provisions, model contracts, and other
support materials for use by customers,
States, utilities and demand response
providers.2 Commission Staff will draw
on the comments received and the
discussion at the technical conferences
to prepare a draft of the National Action
Plan.
There will be panel sessions in the
morning of the technical conferences to
discuss the overall approach to and
scope of the National Action Plan,
followed by afternoon breakout sessions
that will focus on each of the three
statutory objectives above. A closing
plenary session will summarize the
break-out discussions to identify
possible areas of consensus.
Those interested in speaking on the
morning panels at the conferences
should notify the Commission by
September 25, 2009 by completing an
online form describing the elements that
they will address: for Washington,
