Text for 2/10/14 doc-less motion to intervene in ER14-972-000

Pursuant to Rules 212 and 214 of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s (Commission) Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 C.F.R. §§ 385.212 & 385.214 (2012), the New York

Independent System Operator, Inc. (NYISO) hereby moves to intervene in the above-captioned proceeding.

The NYISO is a not-for-profit corporation responsible for providing open-access transmission
service and administering open and competitive wholesale markets in New York State. The
NYISO maintains and implements an Open Access Transmission Tariff and a Market
Administration and Control Area Services Tariff (collectively, the “Tariffs”). The NYISO is
responsible for the reliable operation of the bulk electricity grid, and both short-term and long-
term planning for the bulk power system in New York State.  The NYISO is also responsible for
the economic evaluation and scheduling of import offers and export bids between the New York
Control Area (“NYCA”) and neighboring Public Utilities, including PJM Interconnection, LLC
(“PJM”).

The NYISO and PJM coordinate the operation of 1000 MW Transmission Service Agreements (“1000 MW TSAs”) that source and sink in the NYCA, with through-and-out service in PJM. The procedures for operation and scheduling of energy associated with the 1000 MW TSAs are described in the Operating Protocol for the Implementation Of Con Ed - PJM Transmission Service Agreements, Schedule C to the NYISO/PJM Joint Operating Agreement (Section 35.22 of the NYISO Open Access Transmission Tariff).

Accordingly, the NYISO has an interest in this proceeding. This interest cannot be adequately
represented by any other party. The NYISO, therefore, should be permitted to intervene in this
proceeding.
