    PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE State Administrative Procedure Act, NOTICE is hereby given of the following proposed rule:
    Proposed Action:
    The Commission is considering a proposal filed by the City of Jamestown Board of Public Utilities to incorporate LED options in its street and off-street service classifications in its electric tariff schedule, P.S.C. No. 7—Electricity.
    Statutory authority:
    Public Service Law, section 66(12)
    Subject:
    Addition of LED lighting options to SC No. 4—Off-Street Lighting and SC No. 5—Municipal Street Lighting Service.
    Purpose:
    To consider the addition of LED lighting options for Jamestown's street and off-street lighting service classifications.
    Substance of proposed rule:
    The Public Service Commission is considering a proposal filed by the City of Jamestown Board of Public Utilities (Jamestown) to update its electric tariff schedule, P.S.C. No. 7, to incorporate Light Emitting Diode (LED) options to Service Classification No. 4 – Off-Street and Service Classification No. 5 – Municipal Street lighting services. Jamestown proposes to offer 11 LED lighting options for new or replacement installations. For normal fixture replacements, a fully depreciated light will be replaced with a new LED fixture. For any requested larger volume change-outs from municipal customers, Jamestown will provide a stranded cost recovery estimate prior to initiating the replacements. The municipality will need to agree, in advance, to pay the stranded cost amount before the project begins. The proposed amendments have an effective date of February 1, 2017. The Commission may adopt, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the relief proposed and may resolve related matters.
