On March 18, 2020, New York Independent System Operator, Inc. (NYISO) submitted a compliance filing seeking to establish an effective date of April 7, 2020, for certain revisions to the Joint Operating Agreement (JOA) between NYISO and PJM Interconnection, L.L.C. (PJM).[1] You state that these revisions were developed to implement a streamlined and improved method of determining and calculating Market-to-Market Entitlements. You also state that these revisions were accepted with a flexible effective date in a Letter Order issued in this proceeding on August 28, 2019, and that the instant compliance filing is made pursuant to that Letter Order and the subsequent Notice of Extension of Time issued on January 23, 2020.

Pursuant to the authority delegated to the Director, Division of Electric Power Regulation – East, under 18 C.F.R. § 375.307 (2019), your submittal is accepted for filing, effective April 7, 2020, as requested.

Pursuant to Rule 214 (18 C.F.R. § 385.214 (2019)), 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 finding 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 or PJM.

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 (2019).
