Merricourt Power Partners, LLC v. Midcontinent Independent System 
Operator, Inc.; Notice of Complaint

    Take notice that on August 17, 2015, pursuant to section 206 and 
306 of the Federal Power Act (FPA), 16 U.S.C. 824e and 825e and Rule 
206 of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) Rules of 
Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.206, Merricourt Power Partners, LLC 
(Merricourt or Complainant), filed a formal complaint against 
Midcontinent Independent System Operator, Inc. (Respondent or MISO) 
alleging that MISO's refusal to amend Complainant's generation 
interconnection agreement (GIA) to extend the commercial operation date 
is unjust, unreasonable and unduly discriminatory and preferential in 
violation of the FPA, as more fully explained in the complaint.
    Complainant certifies that copies of the complaint were served on 
the contacts for MISO and Montana-Dakota Utilities Company, the 
interconnecting transmission owner, as listed on the Commission's list 
of Corporate Officials and in the GIA.

considered by the Commission in determining the appropriate action to 
be taken, but will not serve to make protestants parties to the 
proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party must file a notice of 
intervention or motion to intervene, as appropriate. The Respondent's 
answer and all interventions, or protests must be filed on or before 
the comment date. The Respondent's answer, motions to intervene, and
