FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms.
Regina Rieger, Rates Manager, Sierra
Nevada Region, Western Area Power
Administration, 114 Parkshore Drive,
Folsom, CA 95630–4710, (916) 353–
4629, email: SNR-Rates@wapa.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
existing formula rate provides sufficient
revenue to recover annual expenses,
interest, and capital requirements,
within the cost recovery criteria set
forth in DOE Order RA 6120.2;
therefore, WAPA proposes to extend the
current formula rate schedule for five
years.
By Delegation Order No. 00–037.00A,
effective October 25, 2013, the Secretary
of Energy delegated: (1) The authority to
develop power and transmission rates to
WAPA’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).
FERC confirmed and approved the
Washoe Project non-firm power formula
rate, Rate Schedule SNF–7, on April 16,
2009,1 and the subsequent extension on
September 5, 2013.2 In accordance with
10 CFR part 903.23(a), WAPA proposes
to extend the existing formula rate for
the period October 1, 2017, through
September 30, 2022.
U.S. Dept. of Energy, Western Area Power
Admin., 127 FERC ¶ 62,043 (2009).
2 See U.S. Dept. of Energy, Western Area Power
Admin., 144 FERC ¶ 62,213 (2013).
By way of background, Congress
declared all Washoe Project costs nonreimbursable except the Stampede
Powerplant.3 The average Stampede
generation, approximately 10 gigawatt
hours annually, is used principally to
provide energy for two Federal fish
hatcheries. Since the Washoe Project
has no Federally-owned transmission
lines, WAPA contracted with Truckee
Donner Public Utility District and the
City of Fallon (TDPUD/Fallon) to accept
Stampede generation and serve project
use loads. Energy in excess of project
use loads is integrated with the Central
Valley Project (CVP) and marketed
under the 2004 Power Marketing Plan.
Pursuant to Rate Schedule SNF–7, each
year, any remaining reimbursable
expenses, in excess of the revenue
collected under the TDPUD/Fallon
contract, are transferred to the CVP and
incorporated into the CVP power
revenue requirement.
In accordance with 10 CFR part
903.23(a)(2), WAPA determined it is not
necessary to hold a public information
or public comment forum, but is
providing a 30-day comment period.
Comments must be received by the end
of the comment period. WAPA will post
comments received to its Web site,
https://www.wapa.gov/regions/SN/
rates/Pages/rates.aspx. After
considering public comments, WAPA
will take further action on the proposed
formula rate extension consistent with
10 CFR part 903.23(a).
