SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: By
Delegation Order No. 00–037.00A, the
Secretary of Energy delegated: (1) The
authority to develop power and
transmission rates to Western’s
Administrator; (2) the authority to
confirm, approve, and place such rates
into effect on an interim basis to the
Deputy Secretary of Energy; and (3) the
authority to confirm, approve, and place
into effect on a final basis, to remand or
to disapprove such rates to the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).
This extension is issued pursuant to the
Delegation Order and Department of
Energy (DOE) rate extension procedures
at 10 CFR 903.23(a).
Under Delegation Order No. 0204–108
and existing DOE procedures for public
participation in rate adjustments at 10
CFR part 903, Western’s Provo River
Power Rate formula was submitted to
FERC for confirmation and approval on
February 2, 2010. The Provo River
Power Rate formula, Rate Order No.
WAPA–149, was approved for 5 years
beginning April 1, 2010, and ending
March 31, 2015.
The Provo River Project, which
includes Deer Creek Dam on the Provo
River in Utah, was authorized in 1935.
Construction of the dam began in 1938
and was completed in 1951. The Deer
Creek Powerplant was authorized on
August 20, 1951; construction began in
1956 and was completed in 1958;
generation began that same year. Its
maximum operating capacity is 5,200
kilowatts.
The Provo River Project’s power is
sold according to a marketing plan that
was published in the Federal Register
on November 21, 1994. This marketing
plan allows Western to sell the output
of the Provo River Project to Utah
Municipal Power Agency, Utah
Associated Municipal Power Systems,
and Heber Light and Power (Customers)
in the Provo River drainage area.
Contract Nos. 94–SLC–0253, 94–SLC–
0254, and 07–SLC–0601 between the
United States and Customers require
that each fiscal year (FY) a new annual
installment be calculated in advance by
Western and submitted to the Customers
on or before August 31 of the year
preceding the appropriate FY. Each FY,
Western prepares a power repayment
study, which includes estimates of
operation, maintenance, and
replacement costs for the Deer Creek
Powerplant. The annual installment is
adjusted on or before August 31 of the
year preceding the FY to which it
pertains, and Western identifies this

amount in contract revisions. Each
annual installment pays the amortized
portion of the United States’ investment
in the Deer Creek hydroelectric facilities
with interest and the associated
operation, maintenance, and
administrative costs. This repayment
schedule is not dependent upon the
capacity and associated energy made
available for sale each year.
Thirty days after this notice is
published, Western will take further
action on the proposed formula rate
extension for the Provo River Project,
pursuant to the Delegation Order and
DOE rate extension procedures at 10
CFR 903.23(a).
