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 Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation d/b/a National Grid to update Service Classification No. 2 to incorporate LED options in its street lighting schedule, P.S.C. No. 214 — Electricity.

Statutory authority:

Subject:

Addition of LED options to NMPC's SC No. 2 in its street lighting schedule, P.S.C. No. 214—Electricity.

Purpose:

To consider the addition of LED options to NMPC's SC No. 2 in its street lighting schedule, P.S.C. No. 214—Electricity.

Substance of proposed rule:

The Public Service Commission is considering a proposal filed by Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation d/b/a National Grid (NMPC or the Company) to update Service Classification (SC) No. 2 — Street Lighting — Unmetered Company Owned/Company Maintained Facility to incorporate Light Emitting Diode (LED) options in its street lighting schedule, P.S.C. No. 214 — Electricity. NMPC proposes to offer four Roadway Luminaire LED fixture options (labeled as LED A through D) that will be available to replace existing non-LED luminaire fixtures in the current Roadway offerings of 70, 100, 150, 250 and 400 watts. For the conversion of a Company-owned non-LED facility to a Company-owned LED facility, removal costs will not be collected directly from the customer requesting the LED installations. The undepreciated net book value and system reconfiguration costs will be collected directly from the customer requesting the LED installations and such costs will be dependent upon the specific installations. The proposed amendments have an effective date of April 1, 2016. The Commission may adopt, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the relief proposed and may resolve related matters.
