SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On January 5, 2009, ITC applied to the DOE 
to amend Presidential Permit No. PP-230-3 by authorizing ITC to replace 
a failed 675-MVA transformer with two 700-MVA phase-shifting 
transformers connected in series at ITC's Bunce Creek Station in 
Marysville, Michigan.
    On August 9, 2011, DOE received Supplemental Reply Comments from 
ITC, which completed the ITC response to earlier comments filed in the 
proceeding by the Midwest Independent Transmission System Operator 
(MISO), Inc. and the Independent Electricity System Operator of 
Ontario. According to ITC, the supplemental filing provided the 
operational agreements required to complete ITC's application in the 
amendment proceeding, including a letter of agreement between ITC and 
MISO assigning functional control of the subject facilities at the 
Bunce Creek Station to MISO.
    DOE published a notice in the Federal Register on August 18, 2011 
(76 FR 52945) inviting comments from prior participants in the 
proceeding and other interested persons on the ITC supplemental filing 
until September 23, 2001. Specifically, DOE was interested in obtaining 
the views of other affected utilities and system operators on the 
sufficiency of the operating principles provided by ITC.
    In response to a motion from ITC filed on September 15, 2011, DOE 
extended the comment period on the supplemental filing through the 
publication of a notice in the Federal Register on September 27, 2011 
(76 FR 59668). The current comment period is scheduled to expire on 
October 14, 2011.
    On October 11, 2011 ITC filed a motion requesting an extension of 
the comment period for an additional week in order to allow more time 
for the parties in the case to finalize ongoing settlement discussions. 
In the interest of ensuring that there is sufficient time for the 
parties to be able to conclude the settlement and provide any 
additional comments that may be warranted, DOE has decided to extend 
the public comment period until November 4, 2011.
    Procedural Matters: Any person desiring to be heard in response to 
this notice should file written comments with DOE. Five copies of such 
comments should be sent to the address provided above on or before the 
date listed above.
