Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 39 / Tuesday, March 2, 2021 / Notices
2. The Commission requires sellers
with market-based rate authorization to
file Electric Quarterly Reports
summarizing contractual and
transaction information related to their
market-based power sales as a condition
for retaining that authorization.2
Commission staff’s review of the
Electric Quarterly Reports indicates that
the following 10 public utilities with
market-based rate authorization have
failed to file their Electric Quarterly
Reports: Palama, LLC; City Power
Marketing, LLC; Oracle Energy Services,
LLC; EmpireCo Limited Partnership;
Allied Energy Resources Corporation;
Entra Energy LLC; BlueRock Energy,
Inc.; Power Dave Fund LLC; ESS Lewes
Project, LLC; and ESS Snook Project,
LLC. This order notifies these public
utilities that their market-based rate
authorizations will be revoked unless
they comply with the Commission’s
requirements within 15 days of the date
of issuance of this order.
3. In Order No. 2001, the Commission
stated that,
[i]f a public utility fails to file a[n] Electric
Quarterly Report (without an appropriate
request for extension), or fails to report an
agreement in a report, that public utility may
forfeit its market-based rate authority and
may be required to file a new application for
market-based rate authority if it wishes to
resume making sales at market-based rates.3
4. The Commission further stated that,
[o]nce this rule becomes effective, the
requirement to comply with this rule will
supersede the conditions in public utilities’
market-based rate authorizations, and failure
to comply with the requirements of this rule
will subject public utilities to the same
consequences they would face for not
satisfying the conditions in their rate
authorizations, including possible revocation
of their authority to make wholesale power
sales at market-based rates.4

5. Pursuant to these requirements, the
Commission has revoked the marketbased rate tariffs of market-based rate
(2016) (clarifying Electric Quarterly Reports
reporting requirements and updating Data
Dictionary).

sellers that failed to submit their
Electric Quarterly Reports.5
6. Sellers must file Electric Quarterly
Reports consistent with the procedures
set forth in Order Nos. 2001, 768,6 and
770.7 The exact filing dates for Electric
Quarterly Reports are prescribed in 18
CFR 35.10b. As noted above,
Commission staff’s review of the
Electric Quarterly Reports for the period
up to the third quarter of 2020 identified
10 public utilities with market-based
rate authorization that failed to file
Electric Quarterly Reports. Commission
staff contacted or attempted to contact
these entities to remind them of their
regulatory obligations. Despite these
reminders, the public utilities listed in
the caption of this order have not met
these obligations. Accordingly, this
order notifies these public utilities that
their market-based rate authorizations
will be revoked unless they comply
with the Commission’s requirements
within 15 days of the issuance of this
order.
7. In the event that any of the abovecaptioned market-based rate sellers have
already filed their Electric Quarterly
Reports in compliance with the
Commission’s requirements, those
sellers’ inclusion herein is inadvertent.
Such market-based rate sellers are
directed, within 15 days of the date of
issuance of this order, to make a filing
with the Commission identifying
themselves and providing details about
their prior filings that establish that they
complied with the Commission’s
Electric Quarterly Report filing
requirements.
8. If any of the above-captioned
market-based rate sellers do not wish to
continue having market-based rate
authority, they may file a notice of
cancellation with the Commission
pursuant to section 205 of the FPA to
cancel their market-based rate tariff.
The Commission orders:
(A) Within 15 days of the date of
issuance of this order, each public
utility listed in the caption of this order
shall file with the Commission all
delinquent Electric Quarterly Reports. If
a public utility subject to this order fails
to make the filings required in this
order, the Commission will revoke that
public utility’s market-based rate
authorization and will terminate its
