MOTION FOR FURTHER LIMITED EXTENSION OF TIME AND FOR SHORTENED
NOTICE AND COMMENT PERIOD AND FOR EXPEDITED ACTION OF
THE NEW YORK INDEPENDENT SYSTEM OPERATOR, INC.
Pursuant to Rules 212 and 2008 of the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure,1
the New York Independent System Operator, Inc. (“NYISO”) respectfully submits this motion
for a brief extension of time to submit its compliance tariff revisions in response to the
Commission’s May 20, 2010 order in the above captioned proceedings (“May 20 Order”).2
Specifically, the NYISO asks that it be given until August 12, 2010 to submit compliance
language so that it may first post draft tariff sheets for its stakeholders’ information and so that it
may have an opportunity to respond to stakeholder questions concerning the posted materials.
The NYISO is in the process of completing its development of a complete set of
compliance tariff revisions in response to the May 20 Order but has not yet had an opportunity to
make it available to its stakeholders. Granting the brief requested extension will thus allow
stakeholders to consider the NYISO’s proposal and permit the NYISO to conduct a “question
and answer” conference call before making the compliance filing.3 The NYISO respectfully
submits that no party’s interests would be harmed if its request were granted.
1 18 C.F.R. §§ 385.212 and 385.2008 (2009).
2 New York Independent System Operator, Inc., 131 FERC ¶ 61,170 (2010) (“May 20 Order”).
3 Under the NYISO’s “shared governance” model, stakeholder votes are not required in advance of
compliance filings, as opposed to filings under Section 205 of the Federal Power Act, but the NYISO often provides advance notice of compliance filing materials as a courtesy to stakeholders.
