Section 4.106(a) of the Commission’s regulations, 18 CFR 4.106(a) (2011), provides, among other things, that the Commission reserves the right to revoke an exemption if any term or condition of the exemption is violated. The project has not generated since the early 1990s and has been abandoned by the exemptee. By not operating the project as proposed and authorized, the exemptee is in violation of the terms and conditions of the exemption. Based on staff’s most recent inspection on August 18, 2010, the exemptee has not made any progress toward bringing the project back into operation. On April 13, 2011, Commission staff sent a letter to the exemptee requiring him to show cause why the Commission should not initiate a proceeding to terminate the exemption based on his implied surrender of the exemption. The letter directed the exemptee to provide information, including documentation of contracts issued, permits obtained, agreements made, etc., and to show cause why the Commission should not terminate the exemption for lack of adequate progress toward the resumption of generation at the project. To date, the exemptee has failed to respond and the project remains inoperative. Commission staff continues to inspect the project every three years and reports that it remains inoperable and in poor condition. PO 00000 Frm 00028 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 l.
