5/1/13 N.Y. St. Reg. PSC-18-13-00010-P
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 whether to adopt or reject, in whole or in part, Con Edison's Report on 2012 Performance under the Electric Service Reliability Performance Mechanism, concluding that it met all targets and incurred no revenue adjustment.
Statutory authority:
Public Service Law, sections 65 and 66
Subject:
Con Edison's 2012 Performance Report concluding that it met all targets and incurred no revenue adjustment.
Purpose:
To consider Con Edison's 2012 Performance Report concluding that it met all targets and incurred no revenue adjustment.
Substance of proposed rule:
The Public Service Commission (Commission) is considering whether to adopt or reject, in whole or in part, Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc.’s (Con Edison or Company) Report on 2012 Performance under the Electric Service Reliability Performance Mechanism (2012 RPM Report), concluding that it met all targets and incurred no revenue adjustment. Specifically, the Commission will consider whether Con Edison has met all of the required performance standards set forth in the utility's rate plan. Con Edison states in its 2012 RPM Report that a revenue adjustment of $39 million is not applicable for its failure to meet its network duration, network outages per 1000 customers, and major outage metric because interruptions were caused by excludable overhead major storms that have impacted its network system. In addition, Con Edison states that a revenue adjustment of $1.5 million is not applicable for its failure to meet its shunt removal program standard due to a major storm. The utility states that it has met all the remaining performance metrics, which include the radial frequency and duration threshold standards, summer network feeder open automatics, radial restoration, pole repairs, no current streetlight and traffic signal repairs, remote monitoring system and over duty circuit breaker replacements.
