Energy Conservation Program for Certain Industrial Equipment: Energy Conservation Standards for Commercial Heating, Air-Conditioning, and Water-Heating Equipment
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is announcing the availability of an environmental assessment (EA) to accompany its notice of proposed rulemaking (NOPR) considering potential energy conservation standards for certain commercial and industrial equipment, including commercial heating, air-conditioning, and water-heating equipment, published in the Federal Register on March 20, 2009. Specifically, this EA includes a concise examination of the impacts of emission reductions likely to result from the proposed standards for commercial packaged boilers and water-cooled and evaporatively-cooled commercial package air conditioners and heat pumps with a cooling capacity at or above 240,000 Btu/h and less than 760,000 Btu/h. The EA has been incorporated as Chapter 8 in the NOPR technical support document (TSD). In addition, Chapter 9 of the NOPR TSD provides the results of DOE's monetization analysis of these potential emission

Pick-Sloan Missouri Basin Program-Eastern Division-Rate Order No. WAPA-144
The Western Area Power Administration (Western) is proposing to update its rates for transmission and ancillary services for the Pick-Sloan Missouri Basin ProgramEastern Division (P-SMBPED). Current formula rates, under Rate Schedules UGP-NT1, UGP-FPT1, UGP- NFPT1, UGP-AS1, UGP-AS2, UGP-AS3, UGP-AS4, UGP-AS5, and UGP-AS6 will expire on September 30, 2010. Western is also proposing to add a new rate schedule, Rate Schedule UGP-AS7, for Generator Imbalance Service. Western is proposing these rates to meet evolving and expanding transmission system and ancillary services requirements. Western will prepare a brochure that provides detailed information on the proposed rates to all interested parties. The proposed rates, under Rate Schedules UGP-NT1, UGP-FPT1, UGP-NFPT1, UGP-AS1, UGP-AS2, UGP-AS3, UGP- AS4, UGP-AS5, and UGP-AS6, are scheduled to go into effect on January 1, 2010, and will remain in effect through December 31, 2014, or until superseded. The new rate schedule for Generator Imbalance Service, under Rate Schedule UGP-AS7, is scheduled to go into effect on the latter of January 1, 2010, or when Western's Open Access Transmission Tariff (OATT) is revised to provide for Generator Imbalance Service. If implemented, Rate Schedule UGP-AS7 will also remain in effect through December 31, 2014, or until superseded, to coincide with the other ancillary service rates in this rate order. Publication of this Federal Register notice begins the formal process for the proposed formula rates.

Big Eddy-Knight Transmission Project
BPA intends to prepare an EIS in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) on the construction, operation, and maintenance of a proposed 500-kilovolt (kV) transmission line and substation. The project would be located in Wasco County, Oregon and Klickitat County, Washington. The new BPA transmission line would extend generally northeast from BPA's existing 500-kV Big Eddy Substation in The Dalles, Oregon, to a new BPA 500-kV substation proposed to be connected to BPA's existing Wautoma-Ostrander 500-kV transmission line approximately 4 miles northwest of Goldendale, Washington. The proposed BPA substation would be called Knight Substation. BPA is considering three routing alternatives for the proposed transmission line; portions of all three routes parallel existing BPA lines in the area. The lengths of the routing alternatives range from about 26 to 28 miles. The proposed Big Eddy-Knight transmission line is needed to increase transmission capacity to respond to requests for transmission service in this area.
