I.D No. PSC-05-09-00008-P

Revenue Allocation, Rate Design, Performance Metrics, and Other Non-revenue Requirement Issues

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 parts of a proposal filed by Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc. (Company) to make various changes in the rates, charges, rules and regulations contained in its Schedules for electric service.

Statutory authority:

Public Service Law, section 66(12)

Subject:

Revenue allocation, rate design, performance metrics, and other non-revenue requirement issues.

Purpose:

To consider any remaining non-revenue requirement issues related to the Company's May 9, 2008 tariff filing.

Substance of proposed rule:

Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc. (Company) made a major electric rate case filing on May 9, 2008. Evidentiary hearings and opportunities for comment by the active parties and general public have already been afforded on all issues. However, due to the number and complexity of issues, it is possible, if not likely, that issues concerning the Company's electric revenue requirement, on the one hand, and those that do not concern the Company's electric revenue requirement, on the other, will be decided separately. If so, it is also anticipated that the electric revenue requirement issues would be decided first. Accordingly, a second notice of proposed rulemaking is being issued to allow for the possibility of a separate, second Commission decision on the non-revenue requirement issues presented.

Text of proposed rule and any required statements and analyses may be obtained by filing a Document Request Form (F-96) located on our website http://www.dps.state.ny.us/f96dir.htm. For questions, contact:

Leann Ayer, Public Service Commission, 3 Empire State Plaza, Albany, New York 12223-1350, [phone], email: [e-mail]

Data, views or arguments may be submitted to:

Jaclyn A. Brilling, Secretary, Public Service Commission, 3 Empire State Plaza, Albany, New York 12223-1350, [phone], email: [e-mail]

Public comment will be received until:

45 days after publication of this notice.

Regulatory Impact Statement, Regulatory Flexibility Analysis, Rural Area Flexibility Analysis and Job Impact Statement

Statements and analyses are not submitted with this notice because the proposed rule is within the definition contained in section 102(2)(a)(ii) of the State Administrative Procedure Act.
