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 proposals to implement the Recharge New York Power Program delivery discounts of Economic Development Law Section 188-a(d).
Statutory authority:
Public Service Law, sections 4(1), 65, 66; Public Authorities Law, section 1005; Economic Development Law, section 188-a(d)
Subject:
Implementing delivery discounts for Recharge New York Power Program allocations.
Purpose:
Consideration of mechanisms for providing reduced delivery rates for power allocated to Recharge New York customers.
Substance of proposed rule:
By filing dated June 27, 2011, the New York Power Authority (NYPA) petitioned the Commission seeking to implement reduced delivery service rates, as well as terms and conditions, for allocations of Recharge New York Power Program (RNY) electricity to RNY program participants. NYPA’s petition was filed pursuant to Economic Development Law section 188-a(d) requiring NYPA, after consultation with Public Service Department Staff, to recommend to the Commission reduced rates for RNY power allocations. In its June 27, 2011 filing, NYPA proposed a discounted delivery rate consisting of exemptions to RNY customers of certain surcharges, as well as terms and conditions related to the respective roles of NYPA and New York’s electric utilities as related to RNY program participants. The Commission is considering whether to grant or deny, in whole or in part, approval of the NYPA’s proposals.
