SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On July 14, 2016, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) approved Rate Order No. WAPA–173,1 which extended the rates listed below for three years from October 1, 2016, through September 30, 2019. • CV–F13 (Base Resource and First Preference Power), • CPP–2 (Custom Product Power), • CV–T3 (Firm and Non-Firm Pointto-Point Transmission Service), • CV–NWT5 (Network Integration Transmission Service), • COTP–T3 (Firm and Non-Firm Point-to-Point Transmission Service), • PACI–T3 (Firm and Non-Firm Point-to-Point Transmission Service), • CV–TPT7 (Third-Party Transmission Service), • CV–UUP1 (Unreserved Use Penalties), • CV–RFS4 (Regulation and Frequency Response), • CV–SPR4 (Spinning Reserves), • CV–SUR4 (Supplemental Reserves), • CV–EID4 (Energy Imbalance Service), and • CV–GID1 (Generator Imbalance). WAPA proposes to extend the existing formula rates, without any adjustments, for five years from October 1, 2019, through September 30, 2024. WAPA is taking action under 10 CFR 903.23(a). These formula rates allow for recalculation of unit charges and revenue requirements at least annually. WAPA notifies customers of annual changes in writing, at customer meetings, and by posting on WAPA’s website. The existing formula rates provide sufficient revenue to pay all annual costs, including interest expense, and repay required investments within the allowable period consistent with the cost recovery criteria set forth in DOE Order RA 6120.2. Extending the rates through September 30, 2024, will: (1) Ensure continued cost recovery; (2) allow time to develop rates under the new power marketing plan effective January 1, 2025; and (3) provide WAPA and its customers time to evaluate the Bureau of Reclamation initiatives, including the final CVP Cost Allocation Study results amozie on DSK3GDR082PROD with NOTICES1 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 1 See U.S. Department of Energy, Western Area Power Administration, Docket No. EF16–3–000, 156 FERC ¶ 62,039 (2016).
