Preventing Undue Discrimination and Preference in Transmission Service
On May 19, 2006, the Commission issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NOPR) in this proceeding. Preventing Undue Discrimination and Preference in Transmission Service, 71 FR 32636 (June 6, 2006). In the NOPR, the Commission proposed, inter alia, to modify the redispatch obligations associated with long-term firm point-to-point service and, in addition, sought comments on whether the creation of a conditional firm product would represent a superior approach to address circumstances under which firm transmission service can be provided in most, but not all, of the hours of the request. Based on the comments received in response to the NOPR, the Commission is seeking further comment on the following two topics: the proposal of the Transparent Dispatch Advocates for transmission providers to post redispatch cost information and provide real-time redispatch; and specific questions related to the provision of conditional firm service.
