Dear Mr. Allen:

On January 10, 2014, New York Independent System Operator, Inc. (NYISO) filed revisions to its Market Administration and Control Area Services Tariff (Services Tariff)[1] in compliance with the Commission’s December 4, 2013 Order.[2] NYISO states that the proposed revisions: (1) rearrange the content of section 5.14.2 in the most logical sequence and group content by topic; (2) clarify how shortfalls may be calculated; (3) conform the use of the terms “shortfall” and “deficiency” throughout section 5.14.2 to avoid potential ambiguity; and (4) make other ministerial changes.

Pursuant to the authority delegated to the Director, Division of Electric Power

Regulation – East, under 18 C.F.R. § 375.307, your submittal is accepted for filing, effective March 15, 2014, as requested, subject to a further compliance requirement.[3] NYISO shall submit a compliance filing revising section 5.14.1.2 of the Services Tariff to reflect the language accepted in New York Independent System Operator, Inc.[4]

The filing was noticed on January 14, 2014, with comments, interventions and protests due on or before January 24, 2014. Pursuant to Rule 214 (18 C.F.R. § 385.214 (2013)), to the extent that any timely filed motions to intervene and any motion to intervene out-of-time were filed before the issuance date of this order, such interventions are granted. Granting late interventions at this stage of the proceeding will not disrupt the proceeding or place additional burdens on existing parties.

This acceptance for filing shall not be construed as constituting approval of the referenced filing or of any rate, charge, classification, or any rule, regulation, or practice affecting such rate or service contained in your filing; nor shall such acceptance be deemed as recognition of any claimed contractual right or obligation associated therewith; and such acceptance is without prejudice to any findings or orders which have been or may hereafter be made by the Commission in any proceeding now pending or hereafter instituted by or against NYISO.

This order constitutes final agency action. Requests for rehearing by the Commission may be filed within 30 days of the date of issuance of this order, pursuant to 18 C.F.R. § 385.713.
