Yes. BIA will not implement the proposed 2022 rates. The final 2023 rates will be implemented as proposed. PO 00000 Frm 00082 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Did BIA receive any comments on the proposed electric power rate adjustments? Yes. BIA received nine (9) written comment submissions related to the proposed rate adjustments for SCIP/PD. What issues were of concern to the commenters? Written comments relating the proposed rate adjustment were received by letter and email. BIA’s summary of the issues and BIA’s responses are provided below: Comment: Commenters state a general opposition to the proposed electric power rate adjustments. Response: As noted when rates were proposed in the Federal Register on February 10, 2022 (87 FR 7863), BIA is required to establish power assessment rates that recover the costs to administer, operate, maintain, and rehabilitate our projects. As owner of SCIP/PD, it is our responsibility to ensure adequate resources are made available to meet the requirements noted above. BIA’s authority to assess rates dates to the Act of March 7, 1928 (45 Stat. 210–212) as amended, and 25 U.S.C. 385c, and is addressed in BIA’s regulations at 25 CFR 175. BIA must systematically review and evaluate power assessment rates and adjust them, when necessary, to reflect the full cost to operate and perform all appropriate maintenance to ensure safe and reliable service. If this review and adjustment is not accomplished, a rate deficiency can accumulate over time. Rate deficiencies force BIA to raise assessment rates in larger increments over shorter periods than would have otherwise been necessary. SCIP/PD’s assessment rates remained the same from 2007 to 2021 and did not keep up with the full cost of providing electrical service, the costs of system improvements, and the significant increase in purchased power costs. As a result, SCIP/PD exhausted its reserve fund in 2021. These circumstances required BIA to review and evaluate its assessment rates, implement a purchased power cost adjustment, and propose electric power rate adjustments to reflect the full cost to operate and perform all appropriate maintenance to ensure safe and reliable service. The SCIP/PD budget, upon which the proposed electric power rate adjustment is based, was prepared in accordance with BIA financial guidelines. BIA considers the following items when determining a power project’s budget: operation and maintenance costs, maintenance of reserve funds, repair and replacement costs, defraying E:\FR\FM\19DEN1.SGM 19DEN1
