    Title: FERC-917 (Electric Transmission Facilities) and FERC-918 
(Standards for Business Practices and Communication Protocols for 
Public Utilities.

requirements.
    Abstract: On February 17, 2007, the Commission issued Order No. 890 
\1\ to address and remedy opportunities for undue discrimination under 
the pro forma Open Access Transmission Tariff (OATT) adopted in 1996 by 
Order No. 888.\2\ Through Order No. 890, the Commission:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Final Rule in Docket Nos. RM05-17-000 and RM05-25-000, 
issued 2/16/2007.
    \2\ Promoting Wholesale Competition Through Open Access Non-
discriminatory Transmission Services by Public Utilities; Recovery 
of Stranded Costs by Public Utilities and Transmitting Utilities,

Cir. 2000), aff'd sub nom. New York v. FERC, 535 U.S. 1 (2002).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Adopted pro forma OATT provisions necessary to keep 
imbalance charges closely related to incremental costs;
     Increased nondiscriminatory access to the grid by 
requiring public utilities, working through the North American Electric 
Reliability Corporation (NERC), to develop consistent methodologies for 
available transfer capability (ATC) calculation and to publish those 
methodologies to increase transparency;
     Required an open, transparent, and coordinated 
transmission planning process thereby increasing the ability of 
customers to access new generating resources and promote efficient 
utilization of transmission;
     Gave the right to customers to request from transmission 
providers, studies addressing congestion and/or integration of new 
resource loads in areas of the transmission system where they have 
encountered transmission problems due to congestion or where they 
believe upgrades and other investments may be necessary to reduce 
congestion and to integrate new resources;
     Required both the transmission provider's merchant 
function and network customers to include a statement with each 
application for network service or to designate a new network resource 
that attests, for each network resource identified, that the 
transmission customer owns or has committed to purchase the designated 
network resource and the designated network resource comports with the 
requirements for designated network resources. The network customer 
includes this attestation in the customer's comment section of the 
request when it confirms the request on the Open Access Same-Time 
Information System (OASIS);
     Required with regard to capacity reassignment that: (a) 
All sales or assignments of capacity be conducted through or otherwise 
posted on the transmission provider's OASIS on or before the date the 
reassigned service commences; (b) assignees of transmission capacity 
execute a service agreement prior to the date on which the reassigned 
service commences; and (c) transmission providers aggregate and 
summarize in an electric quarterly report the data contained in these 
service agreements;
     Adopted an operational penalties annual filing that 
provides information regarding the penalty revenue the transmission 
provider has received and distributed; and
     Required creditworthiness information to be included in a 
transmission provider's OATT. Attachment L must specify the qualitative 
and quantitative criteria that the transmission provider uses to

[[Page 21289]]

determine the level of secured and unsecured credit required.
    The Commission required a NERC/NAESB \3\ team to draft and review 
Order No. 890 reliability standards and business practices. The team 
was to solicit comment from each utility on developed standards and 
practices and utilities were to implement each, after Commission 
approval. Public utilities, working through NERC, were to revise 
reliability standards to require the exchange of data and coordination 
among transmission providers and, working through NAESB, were to 
develop complementary business practices.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ NAESB is the North American Energy Standards Board.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Required OASIS postings included:

     Explanations for changes in ATC values;
     Capacity benefit margin (CBM) reevaluations and quarterly 
postings;
     OASIS metrics and accepted/denied requests;
     Planning redispatch offers and reliability redispatch 
data;
     Curtailment data;
     Planning and system impact studies;
     Metrics for system impact studies; and
     All rules.

    Incorporating the Order No. 890 standards into the Commission's 
regulations benefits wholesale electric customers by streamlining 
utility business practices, transactional processes, and OASIS 
procedures, and by adopting a formal ongoing process for reviewing and 
upgrading the Commission's OASIS standards and other electric industry 
business practices. These practices and procedures benefit from the 
implementation of generic industry standards.
    The Commission's Order No. 890 regulations can be found in 18 CFR 
35.28 (pro forma tariff requirements), and 37.6 and 37.7 (OASIS 
requirements).
    Type of Respondents: Provide information on any types of entities 
who respond to the information collection.
    Estimate of Annual Burden \4\: The estimated annual public 
reporting burdens for FERC-917 (requirements in 18 CFR 35.28) and FERC-
918 (requirements in 18 CFR 37.6 and 37.7) are reduced from the 
original estimates made three years ago. The reductions are due to the 
incorporation and completion of:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The Commission defines burden as the total time, effort, or 
financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, 
retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal 
agency. For further explanation of what is included in the 
information collection burden, reference 5 Code of Federal 
Regulations 1320.3.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     One-time pro forma tariff and standards changes by 
utilities in existence at that time, which would not be needed unless 
the tariff and/or standards are changed again; and
     completed development and comment solicitation of the 
required NERC/NAESB reliability standards and business practices. The 
other activities are annual ongoing requirements. The estimated annual 
figures follow:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ Burden is defined as the total time, effort, or financial 
resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or 
disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. For 
further explanation of what is included in the information 
collection burden, refer to 5 Code of Federal Regulations 1320.3.
