FERC on a final basis on January 9,
2014, for a period that ends September
30, 2017. Since the current Integrated
System Rate Schedules were first placed
in effect, there has been one change. A
specific section (2.3.6) within NonFederal Transmission Service (NFTS)
rate schedule NFTS–13 was added to
replace the stated-rate for customers
taking Southwest Power Pool (SPP)
Network Integration Transmission
Service (NITS) with a revenuerequirement based methodology that
includes determining the SPP NITS
Annual Revenue Requirement (ARR)
portion of Southwestern’s NFTS ARR.
The rate schedule was re-designated
NFTS–13A to reflect the change to the
initial rate schedule. This rate schedule
change was placed in effect on an
interim basis by the Deputy Secretary of
Energy effective January 1, 2017, and
confirmed and approved on a final basis
by the FERC on March 9, 2017, under
docket EF14–1–001. This revision had
no impact on the revenue requirements
for Southwestern’s Integrated System.
No change was made to the original
expiration date, September 30, 2017.
The Administrator will review and
consider all written comments and the
information gathered when submitting
the finalized Integrated System Rate
Schedules Extension to the Deputy
Secretary of Energy for confirmation and
approval on an interim basis.
Dated: May 31, 2017.
Scott Carpenter,
Administrator.
