National Advisory Council for Environmental Policy and Technology: Assumable Waters Subcommittee; Notice of Public Meeting, 1336-1337 [2016-31642]

Download as PDF 1336 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 3 / Thursday, January 5, 2017 / Notices years, without adjustment.3 In accordance with 10 CFR 903.23(a), WAPA provided for a consultation and comment period that ended on October 11, 2016. WAPA received no comments. Rate Schedule SNF–7 The formula rate for Stampede power is: (Supersedes Schedule SNF–6) Discussion Sierra Nevada Region, Washoe Project, Stampede Division Stampede Annual Transferred PRR = Stampede Annual PRR—Stampede Revenue Where: Stampede Annual Transferred Power Revenue Requirement (PRR) = Stampede Annual PRR as identified as a cost transferred to the CVP. Stampede Annual PRR = The total PRR for Stampede required to repay all annual costs, including interest, and the investment within the allowable period. Stampede Revenue = Revenue from applying the SEEA Rate to project generation. Billing: Billing for the SEEA Rate will be as specified in the service agreement. Adjustment for Losses: Losses will be accounted for under this rate schedule as stated in the service agreement. Rate Schedule SNF–7 provides sufficient annual revenue to recover annual expenses, interest, and capital investments, within the cost recovery criteria set forth in DOE Order RA 6120.2. Congress, by legislation, declared all Washoe Project costs to be non-reimbursable except the Stampede Powerplant (Stampede).4 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 contract, are incorporated into the CVP power revenue requirement. For the proposed extension period, WAPA forecasts the Washoe Project cost to CVP to be approximately $255,000 annually. Extending Rate Schedule SNF–7 will provide sufficient revenue to recover annual expenses, interest, and capital requirements, thus ensuring project repayment within the cost recovery criteria set forth in DOE Order RA 6120.2. mstockstill on DSK3G9T082PROD with NOTICES Order In view of the foregoing and under the authority delegated to me, I hereby extend, on an interim basis, the existing Washoe Project, Stampede Division, Non-Firm Power Formula Rate, Rate Schedule SNF–7. Rate Order No. WAPA–176 extends, without adjustment, Rate Schedule SNF-7 through September 30, 2022. Rate Schedule SNF–7 shall remain in effect on an interim basis, pending FERC’s confirmation and approval of this extension, or substitute formula rate, on a final basis.

Applicable: To preference customers under the 2004 Power Marketing Plan and the applicable third party(ies) who are under contract (Contractor) with the Western Area Power Administration (WAPA).

Non-Firm Power Formula Rate: In order to serve project use loads and effectively market the energy from Stampede, WAPA has contracted with a third party Contractor that provides for a Stampede Energy Exchange Account (SEEA). The SEEA is an annual energy exchange account for Stampede energy. In the SEEA, the revenues from sales (generation revenues) made at the SEEA Rate are reduced by the project use and station service power costs and SEEA administrative costs. WAPA applies the ratio of project use costs to the generation revenue recorded in the SEEA to determine a non-reimbursable percentage. One hundred percent minus this non-reimbursable percentage establishes a reimbursable percentage. This reimbursable percentage is then applied to the appropriate power-related costs to determine the reimbursable costs for repayment. The reimbursable costs are then netted against generation revenues made at the SEEA Rate. As stipulated under the 2004 Power Marketing Plan, any remaining reimbursable costs, to include interest and annual capital costs, are then transferred to the Central Valley Project for incorporation into the CVP Power Revenue Requirement.
