Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 120 / Friday, June 21, 2024 / Notices
In American Clean Power Ass’n v.
FERC, the United States Court of
Appeals for the District of Columbia
Circuit remanded to the Commission
certain orders 1 concerning transmission
owner (TO) Initial Funding 2 in the
Midcontinent Independent System
Operator, Inc. (MISO) region.3 The
American Clean Power remand
proceeding is pending before the
Commission.
On June 13, 2024, the Commission
issued the Order to Show Cause finding
that the existing open access
transmission tariffs of certain regional
transmission organizations and
independent system operators,
including MISO, appear to be unjust,
unreasonable, and unduly
discriminatory or preferential because
they include provisions for transmission
owners to unilaterally elect TO Initial
Funding.4
Upon consideration, given the
common issues raised in the American
Clean Power remand proceeding and the
Order to Show Cause proceeding, notice
is hereby given that the American Clean
Power remand proceeding is held in
abeyance pending the outcome of the
Order to Show Cause proceeding.
Dated: June 13, 2024.

Acting Secretary.
