https://www.wapa.gov/dsw/pwrmkt.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the
April 27, 2011, Federal Register Notice
(FRN) (76 FR 23583), Western
announced that in marketing the BCP as
of October 1, 2017, it will apply the
Program’s Power Marketing Initiative
(PMI) and that all BCP electric service
contracts resulting from this marketing
effort shall have a term of thirty (30)
years commencing October 1, 2017. The
effective date of these decisions was
designated as May 27, 2011.
Subsequently, on May 24, 2011 (76 FR
30147), Western announced an
extension of the effective date of these
decisions to December 31, 2011.
In the April 27, 2011, FRN, Western
also made proposals and sought
comments on the amount of marketable
contingent capacity and firm energy to
be extended to existing contractors, the
size of the resource pool to be created,
and excess energy provisions.
On December 21, 2011 the Hoover
Power Allocation Act of 2011, Public
Law 112–72, was enacted into law. The
Act directs Western to market
contingent capacity and firm energy for
delivery to existing contractors in
amounts specified in the Act. Contracts
shall have a fifty (50) year term,
commencing October 1, 2017. The Act
also directs Western to create a resource
pool of contingent capacity and firm
energy to be offered to new allottees.
Western will implement these directives
in subsequent FRNs. Since the Act
supersedes Western’s decisions and
proposals pertaining to the BCP Post2017 marketing effort, Western
withdraws its decisions and proposals
as set forth in its April 27, 2011 FRN,
without further public procedure
including further response to comments
received related to the proposals.
Dated: December 16, 2011.
