WASHINGTON, D.C. 20426

OFFICE OF ENERGY MARKET REGULATION

New York Independent System Operator, Inc.

Docket No. ER11-4338-003

Issued:  5/12/17 

New York Independent System Operator, Inc.

10 Krey Boulevard

Rensselaer, NY 12144

Attention: Gregory J. Campbell

      Attorney

Reference: NYISO Order No. 745 Compliance

Dear Mr. Campbell:

On March 31, 2017, New York Independent System Operator, Inc. (NYISO) submitted tariff revisions in compliance with the Commission’s January 30, 2017 Order.[1]  You request a flexible effective date for these tariff revisions of no later than October 31, 2018,[2] and contend that NYISO is unable to propose a precise effective date for these revisions until it completes a full review, update, and testing of the software necessary to implement these changes.  NYISO proposes, therefore, to submit a further compliance filing at least two weeks prior to the proposed effective date that will specify the date on which the revisions take effect.  

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 March 31, 2017, with comments, interventions, and protests due on or before April 21, 2017.  Pursuant to Rule 214 (18 C.F.R. § 385.214 (2016)), 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,

Kurt M. Longo, Director

Division of Electric Power
