Public Notice and Comment
Notice of a proposed rate adjustment
was published in the Federal Register
March 25, 2022 (87 FR 17080). The
notice advised interested parties of a
proposed reduction in the capacity rates
of approximately one percent (1%) and
an increase of four percent (4%) for
energy. The proposed increase in the
revenue requirement was about two
percent (2%). A public information and
comment forum was held April 26,
2022, in Atlanta, Georgia. Written
comments were accepted through June
23, 2022. Comments were received from
two parties at the forum. Written
comments were received from twelve
interested parties.
Comments received from interested
parties are summarized below.
Southeastern’s responses are also
provided.
Oral Comment 1: In reviewing the
public notice and the materials
submitted to date, it appears that the
rates as proposed are entirely consistent
with Section 5 of the Flood Control Act
of 1944 and the administrator has used
his discretion to set the rates as low as
possible consistent with sound business
principles, and the Southeastern Federal
Power Customers support that approach
and continued diligence by the
administrator. There are perhaps a
couple of questions that the materials
raise that we will follow up in further
inquiries in terms of Corps revenue and
Corps O&M projections, but at this time
E:\FR\FM\30AUN1.SGM
30AUN1
khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 167 / Tuesday, August 30, 2022 / Notices
that’s the sum and total of our
comments right now.
Oral Comment 2: We would like to
add that as we’ve most recently
reviewed potential costs associated with
stimulus dollars, that those stimulus
dollars monies not be included in any
future rate study. With that, that
concludes my report.
Written Comment 1: The public notice
represents that SEPA has proposed a de
minimis rate increase to account
increases in the costs of providing the
hydropower. We appreciate the efforts
of the SEPA staff to develop a rate that
provides the lowest possible increase in
the face of rising costs. Furthermore, we
understand that the proposed rate does
not include amounts for stimulus funds
that Congress provided to the Corps in
2021. We support this decision and
resulting rate.
Response to Oral Comments 1 and 2,
and Written Comment 1: Southeastern
continues to work with preference
customers and the Corps to review
operation and maintenance actual costs
and estimates to ensure accuracy of cost
assignment and projections to establish
the lowest possible rates consistent with
sound business principles within the
meaning of Section 5 of the Flood
Control Act of 1944. Southeastern will
continue to monitor costs and processes
to ensure only appropriate hydropower
program related costs are reflected in
power rates charged to customers.
Written Comment 2: SeFPC supports
the proposed rate adjustment for the
GA-AL-SC system of projects. SeFPC
also comments on the authority of the
Administrator to set the rates under
Section 5 of the Flood Control Act of
1944. SeFPC further comments on the
discretion SEPA enjoys in determining
how to structure the recovery of
prospective costs associated with the
federal hydropower purpose. At heart of
the SeFPC’s comments is the assertion
that stimulus funding provided to the
US Army Corps of Engineers in IIJA and
DRSA laws should only be included in
SEPA rates to the extent that the
expenditure is attributable to
hydropower purposes, regardless of
Corps cost accounting.
Response to Written Comment 2:
Southeastern has a statutory duty to
balance the recovery of costs of the
Corps projects in a reasonable number
of years while providing the lowest
possible rates to preference customers
consistent with sound business
principles. Southeastern has received no
financial documents from the Corps
regarding the assignment of costs to the
hydropower purpose related to the
funding referenced in the comment. As
Southeastern receives updated data, the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:24 Aug 29, 2022
Jkt 256001
Administrator will determine the
appropriate costs that are subject to
recovery though the rate in future
actions.
Discussion
System Repayment
An examination of Southeastern’s
revised system power repayment study,
prepared in December 2021, for the
Georgia-Alabama-South Carolina
System shows that with the proposed
rates, all system power costs are paid
within the appropriate repayment
period required by existing law and
DOE Order RA 6120.2. The
Administrator, Southeastern Power
Administration has certified that the
rates are consistent with applicable law
and that they are the lowest possible
rates to customers consistent with
sound business principles.
Legal Authority
Pursuant to Section 302(a) of the
Department of Energy Organization Act
(Pub. L. 95–91, 42 U.S.C. 7152(a)), the
functions of the Secretary of the Interior
and the Federal Power Commission
under Section 5 of the Flood Control
Act of 1944 (16 U.S.C. 825s), relating to
Southeastern, were transferred to and
vested in the Secretary of Energy. By
Delegation Nos. S1–DEL–RATES–2016
and S1–DEL–RATES–1993, effective
November 19, 2016, and November 4,
1993, respectively, the Secretary of
Energy delegated to the Administrator,
Southeastern Power Administration, the
authority to develop power and
transmission rates, to the Deputy
Secretary of Energy the authority to
confirm, approve, and place such rates
into effect on an interim basis, and to
FERC the authority to confirm, approve,
and place into effect on a final basis or
to disapprove rates developed by the
Administrator under the delegation. By
Delegation No. S1–DEL–S3–2022–2,
effective June 13, 2022, the Secretary of
Energy also delegated the authority to
confirm, approve, and place such rates
into effect on an interim basis to the
Under Secretary (for Infrastructure). By
Redelegation No. S3–DEL–SEPA1–2022,
effective June 13, 2022, the Secretary of
Energy, for the Under Secretary (for
Infrastructure), redelegated the authority
to confirm, approve, and place such
rates into effect on an interim basis to
the Administrator, Southeastern Power
Administration, under which this rate is
confirmed, approved, and placed into
effect on an interim basis by the
Administrator, Southeastern Power
Administration.

Environmental Impact
Southeastern has reviewed the
possible environmental impacts of the
rate adjustment under consideration and
has concluded that, because the
adjusted rates would not significantly
affect the quality of the human
environment within the meaning of the
National Environmental Policy Act of
1969, as amended, the proposed action
is not a major Federal action for which
preparation of an Environmental Impact
Statement is required.
Determination Under Executive Order
12866
Southeastern has an exemption from
centralized regulatory review under
Executive Order 12866; accordingly, no
clearance of this notice by the Office of
Management and Budget is required.
Availability of Information
Information regarding these rates,
including studies, and other supporting
materials, is available for public review
in the offices of Southeastern Power
Administration, 1166 Athens Tech
Road, Elberton, Georgia 30635–6711.
Order
In view of the foregoing and pursuant
to the authority delegated to me by the
Secretary of Energy, I hereby confirm
and approve on an interim basis,
effective October 1, 2022, attached
Wholesale Power Rate Schedules

Background
Power from the Georgia-Alabama-South Carolina Projects is presently
sold under Wholesale Power Rate Schedules SOCO-1-F, SOCO-2-F, SOCO-3-F,
SOCO-4-F, ALA-1-O, Duke-1-F, Duke-2-F, Duke-3-F, Duke-4-F, Santee-1-F,

Public Notice and Comment
Notice of a proposed rate adjustment was published in the Federal
Register March 25, 2022 (87 FR 17080). The notice advised interested
parties of a proposed reduction in the capacity rates of approximately
one percent (1%) and an increase of four percent (4%) for energy. The
proposed increase in the revenue requirement was about two percent
(2%). A public information and comment forum was held April 26, 2022,
in Atlanta, Georgia. Written comments were accepted through June 23,
2022. Comments were received from two parties at the forum. Written
comments were received from twelve interested parties.
Comments received from interested parties are summarized below.
Southeastern's responses are also provided.
Oral Comment 1: In reviewing the public notice and the materials
submitted to date, it appears that the rates as proposed are entirely
consistent with Section 5 of the Flood Control Act of 1944 and the
administrator has used his discretion to set the rates as low as
possible consistent with sound business principles, and the
Southeastern Federal Power Customers support that approach and
continued diligence by the administrator. There are perhaps a couple of
questions that the materials raise that we will follow up in further
inquiries in terms of Corps revenue and Corps O&M projections, but at
this time
[[Page 52953]]
that's the sum and total of our comments right now.
Oral Comment 2: We would like to add that as we've most recently
reviewed potential costs associated with stimulus dollars, that those
stimulus dollars monies not be included in any future rate study. With
that, that concludes my report.
Written Comment 1: The public notice represents that SEPA has
proposed a de minimis rate increase to account increases in the costs
of providing the hydropower. We appreciate the efforts of the SEPA
staff to develop a rate that provides the lowest possible increase in
the face of rising costs. Furthermore, we understand that the proposed
rate does not include amounts for stimulus funds that Congress provided
to the Corps in 2021. We support this decision and resulting rate.
Response to Oral Comments 1 and 2, and Written Comment 1:
Southeastern continues to work with preference customers and the Corps
to review operation and maintenance actual costs and estimates to
ensure accuracy of cost assignment and projections to establish the
lowest possible rates consistent with sound business principles within
the meaning of Section 5 of the Flood Control Act of 1944. Southeastern
will continue to monitor costs and processes to ensure only appropriate
hydropower program related costs are reflected in power rates charged
to customers.
Written Comment 2: SeFPC supports the proposed rate adjustment for
the GA-AL-SC system of projects. SeFPC also comments on the authority
of the Administrator to set the rates under Section 5 of the Flood
Control Act of 1944. SeFPC further comments on the discretion SEPA
enjoys in determining how to structure the recovery of prospective
costs associated with the federal hydropower purpose. At heart of the
SeFPC's comments is the assertion that stimulus funding provided to the
US Army Corps of Engineers in IIJA and DRSA laws should only be
included in SEPA rates to the extent that the expenditure is
attributable to hydropower purposes, regardless of Corps cost
accounting.
Response to Written Comment 2: Southeastern has a statutory duty to
balance the recovery of costs of the Corps projects in a reasonable
number of years while providing the lowest possible rates to preference
customers consistent with sound business principles. Southeastern has
received no financial documents from the Corps regarding the assignment
of costs to the hydropower purpose related to the funding referenced in
the comment. As Southeastern receives updated data, the Administrator
will determine the appropriate costs that are subject to recovery
though the rate in future actions.
Discussion
System Repayment
An examination of Southeastern's revised system power repayment
study, prepared in December 2021, for the Georgia-Alabama-South
Carolina System shows that with the proposed rates, all system power
costs are paid within the appropriate repayment period required by
existing law and DOE Order RA 6120.2. The Administrator, Southeastern
Power Administration has certified that the rates are consistent with
applicable law and that they are the lowest possible rates to customers
consistent with sound business principles.
Legal Authority
Pursuant to Section 302(a) of the Department of Energy Organization
Act (Pub. L. 95-91, 42 U.S.C. 7152(a)), the functions of the Secretary
of the Interior and the Federal Power Commission under Section 5 of the
Flood Control Act of 1944 (16 U.S.C. 825s), relating to Southeastern,
were transferred to and vested in the Secretary of Energy. By
Delegation Nos. S1-DEL-RATES-2016 and S1-DEL-RATES-1993, effective
November 19, 2016, and November 4, 1993, respectively, the Secretary of
Energy delegated to the Administrator, Southeastern Power
Administration, the authority to develop power and transmission rates,
to the Deputy Secretary of Energy the authority to confirm, approve,
and place such rates into effect on an interim basis, and to FERC the
authority to confirm, approve, and place into effect on a final basis
or to disapprove rates developed by the Administrator under the
delegation. By Delegation No. S1-DEL-S3-2022-2, effective June 13,
2022, the Secretary of Energy also delegated the authority to confirm,
approve, and place such rates into effect on an interim basis to the
Under Secretary (for Infrastructure). By Redelegation No. S3-DEL-SEPA1-
2022, effective June 13, 2022, the Secretary of Energy, for the Under
Secretary (for Infrastructure), redelegated the authority to confirm,
approve, and place such rates into effect on an interim basis to the
Administrator, Southeastern Power Administration, under which this rate
is confirmed, approved, and placed into effect on an interim basis by
the Administrator, Southeastern Power Administration.
Environmental Impact
Southeastern has reviewed the possible environmental impacts of the
rate adjustment under consideration and has concluded that, because the
adjusted rates would not significantly affect the quality of the human
environment within the meaning of the National Environmental Policy Act
of 1969, as amended, the proposed action is not a major Federal action
for which preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement is required.
Determination Under Executive Order 12866
Southeastern has an exemption from centralized regulatory review
under Executive Order 12866; accordingly, no clearance of this notice
by the Office of Management and Budget is required.
Availability of Information
