Reference:Compliance filing

 

Dear Ms. Lampi:

 

On September 23, 2014, New York Independent System Operator, Inc. (NYISO) submitted a compliance filing to comply with the requirements of the Commission’s September 9, 2014 Order[1] in this proceeding.  The September 9, 2014 Order required NYISO to submit a compliance filing that either (1) provides the location of the information it currently posts and demonstrates that it is consistent with or superior to the requirement of Order No. 784[2], or (2) specifies the date that it will begin posting Area Control Error data and whether the data will be posted on a six-second or on a one-minute/ten-minute average basis.[3]  You state that NYISO will post six-second ACE data for 2013 to its website before the end of October 2014.[4]  You further state that NYISO has begun the process of automating a monthly posting of six-second ACE data for the most recently concluded year and the most recently completed month, and this process will be deployed in February 2015.  NYISO’s compliance filing satisfactorily complies with the requirements of the September 9, 2014 Order.

 

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 as requested.

 

The filing was noticed on September 24, 2014, with comments, interventions and protests due on or before October 14, 2014.  Pursuant to Rule 214 (18 C.F.R. § 385.214 (2014)), 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.

 

Sincerely,
