that SPP is the better choice; will be aggressive in protecting its Members interest; and will work to help make the integration fair to all. RSC will need to continue to help with regional cost allocation, which will take on a whole new meaning. SPP is reviewing the order and will have recommendations for the RSC in the near future. FERC Mr. Patrick Clarey provided an update on recent FERC activities:

August FERC held five regional technical conferences on better coordination between natural gas and electricity markets. The conferences explored gas-electric interdependence as well as ways to improve coordination and communication between the two industries. The regions included the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Southeast, Central and West regions. FERC appreciates SPP’s participation in this effort. September FERC granted SPP’s Petition for Declaratory Order and conditionally accepted the proposed Western-SPP JOA, subject to a compliance filing.

Commission Chairman Jon Wellinghoff announced the creation of a new FERC office that will help the Commission focus on potential cyber and physical security risks to energy facilities under its jurisdiction. The new Office of Energy Infrastructure Security (OEIS) will provide leadership, expertise and assistance to the Commission to identify, communicate and seek comprehensive solutions to potential risks to FERC-jurisdictional facilities from cyber attacks and such physical threats as electromagnetic pulses. OEIS will be led by Joseph McClelland, who has been Director of the Office of Electric Reliability since its formation in 2006.

October Mr. Clarey congratulated SPP and its Members and noted that at the October Open Meeting, FERC conditionally accepted SPP’s Integrated Marketplace tariff filing including day-ahead and real-time energy and operating reserve markets. The Chairman announced that current FERC General Counsel Michael Bardee will be the new head of the Office of Electric Reliability. David Morneoff will step-in as acting General Counsel.

• In order to provide the best support for each rotating President of the RSC, the CAWG considered and recommends that:

The CAWG Chairman position be appointed each year by the RSC, such that, the Chairman

of the CAWG is from the same state as that of the President of the RSC. Tom Wright moved to approve; Kevin Gunn seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously.

• An observation was made at the July RSC meeting that Attachment J is very unclear as to when

the required 15 days notice for a waiver of the Safe Harbor Limits is to occur. The CAWG therefore recommends approval of BPR 25 as amended by the Markets and Operations Policy Committee (MOPC):

A customer may submit a waiver request for waiver of the Safe Harbor Limit, pursuant to

Attachment J Section III.C.1, at any time after the posting of the first iteration of the aggregate study, but not later than 15 days after being notified that the aggregate study is final. Kevin Gunn moved to approve BPR 25 as amended; Dana Murphy seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously.

• MOPC directed the Business Practices Working Group (BPWG) to identify a non-discriminatory

method that the Transmission Provider will use to calculate the amount of costs that are eligible for consideration for waivers to the Safe Harbor provisions of Attachment J. Addressing the five-year commitment period, the CAWG recommends the BPR 32 recommendation for calculation: ...by multiplying the number of years which the Duration of the Transmission Customer’s commitment to the new or changed Designated Resource exceeds the five year minimum commitment period, by 2.5%, multiplied by $180,000 per MW. Tom Wright moved to approve BPR 32; Kevin Gunn seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously.

Ms. Mosier provided an update of the RSC position of support regarding the SPP Order 1000 filing. RSC issued a letter specifically supporting SPP’s regional filing as well as providing individual state support.

Order 1000 Regional Update

Paul Suskie provided an update of Order 1000 analysis of both regional and interregional requirements (Order 1000 Update – Attachment 6). Mr. Suskie also provided information regarding the elimination of the Right of First Refusal (ROFR) and as a result, 4 limitations that would be added to Commission approved tariffs and agreements.

Order 1000 Regional Compliance Filing

Mr. Suskie reviewed TRR 077 revisions for the SPP Regional Compliance Filing for Order 1000, which will be presented to the SPP Board of Directors for approval on October 30, 2012. The filing will be submitted in two weeks.

Order 1000 Interregional Update Seams Steering Committee (SSC) Update Paul Malone presented a SSC update including an overview of responsibilities, SPP’s proposed interregional coordinated planning process, and a compliance timeline (SSC Report – Attachment 7).

Interregional Cost Allocation Task Force Update Sam Loudenslager reported on interregional cost allocation efforts of the Interregional Cost Allocation Task Force (ICATF Efforts – Attachment 8). The group approved principles and guidelines to use in discussions with seams neighbors, developed projects and will try to reach agreement with neighbors.

CAWG’s Recommendation of Cost Allocation of Interregional Project Costs Pat Mosier provided CAWG background regarding interregional cost allocation and offered cost assignment options presented to the CAWG as: 1) Assign all seams costs to the Regional Rate (i.e. Highway) and 2) Allocate seams costs pursuant to currently approved allocation methods (i.e. Highway/Byway dependent upon voltage of Seams Project) (CAWG’s Interregional Cost Allocation Recommendation – Attachment 9). Ms. Mosier stated that the CAWG passed the following recommendation with New Mexico and Texas voting against: CAWG recommends that the Regional State Committee adopt a 100% Regional allocation of costs related to interregional projects selected pursuant to interregional planning processes.

Following much discussion, Patrick Lyons moved to approve:

Adopt current Highway/Byway treatment of SPP’s portion of costs for interregional projects, with the option to seek waiver of that treatment if the interregional project can be shown to provide regional benefits. Donna Nelson seconded the motion, which failed with New Mexico and Texas for and five votes against.

Kevin Gunn moved to approve the CAWG recommendation:

CAWG recommends that the Regional State Committee adopt a 100% Regional allocation of costs related to interregional projects selected pursuant to interregional planning processes. Tom Wright seconded the motion. All voted in favor with New Mexico and Texas against.

Michael Siedschlag requested that the CAWG continue to monitor cost allocation and that the RSC revisit at the January 2013 meeting if circumstances warrant.

Waiver Request Lanny Nickell provided an overview of the transformer waiver process and presented background for the Nebraska Public Power District’s Neligh Waiver Request (NPPD Waiver Request – Attachment 10). Mr. Nickell stated that the MOPC recommends approval of the NPPD Neligh Transformer Waiver Request.

CAWG’s Recommendation on Waiver Requests Pat Mosier reviewed the CAWG discussion and recommendation regarding the NPPD waiver request. She then requested the following for endorsement from the RSC: The CAWG recommends that the RSC endorse the recommendation for the SPP Board to approve the NPPD Neligh Transformer Waiver Request. Tom Wright moved to endorse; Kevin Gunn seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously.

Update on Balanced Portfolio Lanny Nickell provided an update on the Balanced Portfolio (Balanced Portfolio – Attachment 11). Special Studies Update for the Mississippian Dana Murphy provided information regarding the Mississippian oil play (Mississippian – Attachment 12). Ms. Murphy stressed that it is extremely important to bridge the gap between producers, utilities, the Oklahoma and Kansas Corporation Commissions and SPP.

Southwest Power Pool REGIONAL STATE COMMITTEE

Marriott Country Club Plaza, Kansas City, Missouri July 30, 2012

• M I N U T E S •

Administrative Items: The following members were in attendance:

Kevin Gunn, Missouri Public Service Commission (MOPSC) Patrick Lyons, New Mexico Public Regulation Commission (NMPRC) Dana Murphy, Oklahoma Corporation Commission (OCC) Dana Murphy, proxy for Donna Nelson, Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) Olan Reeves, Arkansas Public Service Commission (APSC) Mike Siedschlag, Nebraska Power Review Board (NPRB) Thomas Wright, Kansas Corporation Commission (KCC)

President Olan Reeves called the meeting to order at 1:00 p.m. with roll call and a quorum was declared. He then requested a round of introductions. There were 106 in attendance either in person or via phone (Attendance & Proxies – Attachment 1). President Reeves asked for approval of the April 23, 2012 meeting minutes (RSC Minutes 4/23/12 - Attachment 2). Patrick Lyons moved to approve the minutes with one minor change; Tom Wright seconded the motion. The minutes were unanimously approved as amended. UPDATES

RSC Financial Report Paul Suskie provided the RSC Financial Report (Financial Report – Attachment 3). Mr. Suskie reported that the RSC is over budget due in part to travel expenses. Travel may need to be increased when drafting the 2013 Budget, which should also consider staff travel to the CAWG meetings. The final bill shown for the Seams Cost Allocation expense item was actually a 2011 Budget item. The 2013 Budget will be approved at the October 29 meeting. SPP Report Mr. Brown announced that SPP held a ribbon-cutting for the new facility on July 9 and moved onto the campus on July 16. Discussion regarding a new facility began in 2008, the SPP campus was approved in 2009 and ground-breaking took place in 2010. The building was on schedule and slightly under budget. After 67 years in leased space, the new facility is designed to meet SPP’s specific needs. Mr. Brown stated that the Integrated Marketplace has been divided into three components with the systems status moving from yellow to green. A push on staffing helped with the change of status as well as relying more on staff than external consultants. Internal and external audits continue to be performed to assess project status. Dana Murphy requested that members receive data in a timely fashion, that the time frame for integrating the system is shared with the members, and that the stakeholders are made aware of any additional costs with the system.

Mr. Brown announced that SPP received a senior unsecure rating of A from Fitch. FERC Mr. Patrick Clarey provided an update on recent FERC activities:

May FERC upheld its Order No. 1000 reforms to transmission planning and cost allocation. FERC denied rehearing of the July 2011 final rule establishing minimum criteria that a transmission planning process must satisfy, including general principles for cost allocation methods. The order also affirms the Commission’s actions in Order No. 1000 to promote competition in regional transmission planning by removing from Commission-approved tariffs and agreements any federal right of first refusal for transmission facilities selected in a regional transmission plan for purposes of cost allocation, subject to certain limitations. FERC recently approved SPP’s requested 32-day extension for a compliance filing for requirements of Order No. 1000. FERC approved a policy statement outlining how it will advise the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on requests for extra time for electric generators to comply with the new mercury and air toxics standards rule. The Commission will vote on its comments before providing them to EPA, but this will not constitute a final determination that a reliability standard has or will be violated, nor will it be considered a final agency action that would trigger civil penalties or other enforcement actions. June Commissioners Tony Clark and John Norris were sworn in for their new terms. FERC issued a proposal that would approve the North American Electric Reliability Corporation’s (NERC) revisions to the definition of the bulk electric system to provide greater clarity and ensure consistency in identifying system elements across the nation’s reliability regions. July FERC announced the dates and locations for five regional technical conferences on better coordination between natural gas and electricity markets. The conferences will explore gas-electric interdependence as well as ways to improve coordination and communication between the two industries. Discussion at each conference will focus on: (1) communications, coordination and information sharing; (2) scheduling; (3) market structures and rules; and (4) reliability concerns. The conferences will be open to the public, and Commission members will attend. SPP’s region will be included in an August 6th conference in St. Louis along with MISO and ERCOT.

At the July Open Meeting FERC proposed to clarify and refine its policies governing capacity allocation for new merchant transmission projects and new nonincumbent, cost-based, participant-funded transmission projects. FERC upheld NERC’s assessment of a $19,500 penalty against the Southwestern Power Administration for violations of certain reliability standards. Over objections from DOE, FERC found that under the FPA, it has the authority to impose a monetary penalty against a federal agency for violation of a mandatory reliability standard.

BUSINESS MEETING

No business was reported. REPORTS/PRESENTATIONS Cost Allocation Working Group Report Pat Mosier provided the CAWG report (CAWG Report – Attachment 4). Ms. Mosier presented a quarterly

overview of the group’s activities. Items addressed were:

• SPCTF on Order 1000• SPP Working Groups/Task Forces• Public Policy Requirements in Planning Survey• Ongoing consideration for Treatment of Cost overruns• Waiver Request: OMPA & AECC

Order 1000

Order 1000 ROFR Paul Suskie updated the group on the efforts of the SPCTF on Order 1000 and the Task Force’s Report recommendations to comply with Order 1000/1000-A on policy issues including the Right of First Refusal (ROFR) and the possible impacts on the Highway/Byway cost allocation methodology (Order 1000 – Attachment 5). Mr. Suskie stated that the group seeks RSC’s input on SPP’s compliance filing on ROFR in three areas:

  (1)   Whether or not the RSC supports SPP’s compliance filing seeking to maintain a ROFR for   projects (100 kV & below) in the five SPP zones with more than one transmission owner?    (The five zones with multiple transmission owners are AEP, OG&E, SPS, Mid‐Kansas, and   Westar.)

(2)   Whether or not the RSC supports SPP’s compliance filing seeking to maintain a ROFR for   SPP projects funded under the RSC’s Byway cost allocation methodology (100 kV to 300   kV upgrades)?

(3)   Whether or not the RSC supports SPP’s compliance filing seeking to maintain a ROFR for   short‐term reliability projects that are needed to be in‐service before SPP can complete a   Transmission  Owner  Selection  Process  and  before  a  selected  owner  could  obtain   necessary state approvals for a project that is needed to maintain reliability?

Following discussion including that CAWG supports the SPCTF position, Tom Wright moved to support the areas outlined; Dana Murphy seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously. Patrick Lyons and Dana Murphy suggested that the RSC should draft a letter to be included in SPP’s Order 1000/1000-A compliance filing showing the RSC’s support to retain ROFR for certain projects. Following discussion, Dana Murphy moved to draft a letter to the SPP Board of Directors and Nick Brown and Paul Suskie showing support for the retention of ROFR; Patrick Lyons seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously.

SPCTF on Order 1000 Ricky Bittle provided an update on SPCTF on Order 1000 (SPCTF Update – Attachment 6). Mr. Bittle stated that SPP had received an extension for compliance filings addressing the Order 1000 regional transmission planning and cost allocation requirements. The compliance filings addressing the interregional coordination and cost allocation requirements are due by April 11, 2013. Mr. Bittle reviewed eight recommendations to the SPP Board of Directors from the 1st SPCTF on Order 1000 Report:

1. Recommendation as to the Transmission Upgrades for which SPP should Seek to Retain the Federal ROFR.

2. Recommendation as to What Model SPP Should Use to Select Transmission Owners for Projects Without a Federal ROFR.

3. Recommendation as to Transmission Owner Qualification Criteria. 4. Recommendation as to Changes to SPP’s Membership Agreement and

transmission owner

The SPCTF recommendations for SPP’s compliance with Orders 1000/1000-A will be presented to the SPP Board of Directors on July 31, 2012. Seams Steering Committee (SSC) Paul Malone presented an SSC update (SSC Report – Attachment 7). Mr. Malone provided an overview of Order 1000 interregional planning requirements and stated that currently SPP was planning for three seams entities: MAPPCOR, AECI and MISO. The SSC has formed a Seams FERC Order 1000 Task Force (SFOTF) to develop an SPP proposal to address these requirements. Mr. Malone then presented a high level overview of the proposed process (Option 1), which the SSC unanimously approved as the SPP proposal to use in negotiating with each neighbor (See Attachment 7).

Interregional Cost Allocation TF (IRCATF) Update Chairman Kevin Gunn provided the IRCATF update (IRCATF Report – Attachment 8). Following a brief description of the group, Chairman Gunn presented General Benefit Principals and Interregional Cost Allocation Principles (as stated in the report). He then moved for adoption of these principles; Tom Wright seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously.

OMPA Waiver Request (75196276) Lanny Nickell reviewed the Aggregate Study Waiver Process under Attachment J and provided past history (Waiver Requests Report – Attachment 8). Mr. Nickell then presented OMPA Request 75196276 and offered the following recommendations:

• CAWG recommends the cost of this upgrade not be

directly assigned to the customer.

• MOPC recommends that the cost of this upgrade notbe allocated to OMPA’s request based on the increased flow being less than 1 MW.

• SPP Staff recommends that the cost of this upgradenot be allocated to OMPA’s request.

CAWG REPORT TO RSC

Attachment J requires that a request for a waiver of the Safe Harbor Limits must be made within 15 days of “notice” provided by the Transmission Provider. When that “notice” occurs has not always been clear which has resulted in several waiver requests being made very early in the studyseveral waiver requests being made very early in the study process when cost impacts are also not as clear.

The RSC made that observation in its July 2012 meeting applicable to AECC’s waiver request.

6

Page 25: Southwest Power Pool REGIONAL STATE COMMITTEE Southwest ... · the Office of Electric Reliability since its formation in 2006. October Mr. Clarey congratulated SPP and its Members

4

CAWG REPORT TO RSC

To address the uncertainty and allow a customer the ability to make its request when additional information through subsequent studies is available, the following language was added to the business practices:

A customer may submit a waiver request,y qpursuant to Attachment J Section III.C.1, at anytime after the posting of the first iteration of theaggregate study, but not later than 15 daysafter being notified that the aggregate study is final.

7

CAWG REPORT TO RSC

At its October meeting, MOPC amended BPR No. 25 to clarify that the business practice related to the Safe Harbor provisions of the tariff only, with that amendment as follows:

A customer may submit a waiver request for waiverof the Safe Harbor Limit pursuant to Attachmentof the Safe Harbor Limit, pursuant to AttachmentJ Section III.C.1, at any time after the postingof the first iteration of the aggregate study, butnot later than 15 days after being notifiedthat the aggregate study is final.

8

Page 26: Southwest Power Pool REGIONAL STATE COMMITTEE Southwest ... · the Office of Electric Reliability since its formation in 2006. October Mr. Clarey congratulated SPP and its Members

5

CAWG REPORT TO RSC

The CAWG agrees that the change provided by BPR No. 25 (including the clarification by MOPC) is appropriate, is more clearly defined, and provides the opportunity for better timing in pursuing a request for waivers of the Safe Harbor provisions. Therefore:

CAWG recommends the RSC support the approved BPR025.

9

CAWG REPORT TO RSC

MOPC directed the BPWG to identify a non-discriminatory method that the Transmission Provider will use to calculate the amount of the costs that are eligible for consideration for waivers to the Safe Harbor provisions of Attachment J.

Specifically, the BPWG was to address the calculation of the p y,amounts requested for waivers which were tied to the length of transmission or resource contracts which exceeded the five-year minimum eligibility requirements of Attachment J for Safe Harbor treatment.

In addressing this concern, BPR No. 32 amended the business practice such that the amount subject to waivers sought under this provision of Attachment J would be calculated. . .

Page 28: Southwest Power Pool REGIONAL STATE COMMITTEE Southwest ... · the Office of Electric Reliability since its formation in 2006. October Mr. Clarey congratulated SPP and its Members

7

CAWG REPORT TO RSC

CAWG notes that the standard calculation method set out by BPR No. 32 represents the method specifically proposed by CAWG and is the same method accepted by the RSCattendant to previous Waiver Requests brought before it. Such standard method, while not binding as to any final determination on the waiver request, provides a reasonable

d i t t h t t f th t fand consistent approach to measurement of the amount of that request. Therefore:

CAWG recommends the RSC support the approved BPR032.

13

CAWG REPORT TO RSC

In its July 2012 meeting, RSC agreed to issue a letter specifically supporting SPP’s Order 1000 regional filing in which SPP seeks to retain ROFR on projects:(1) 100 kV & below which are in zones with more than

one transmission owner;

14

(2) which are 100 kV to 300 kV funded under SPP’s Byway cost allocation method; and

(3) which are short-term reliability projects.

Order 1000 ‐ Elimination of ROFR 

6

ROFR Removal ‐ Public utility transmission providers must remove from theirOATTs or other FERC‐jurisdictional tariffs and agreements any provisions thatgrant a federal right of first refusal to transmission facilities that are selected in aregional transmission plan for purposes of cost allocation. [P 313] The focus ofthis requirement is transmission facilities that are evaluated at the regional leveland selected in the regional plan for purposes of cost allocation, as opposed tofacilities that are planned exclusively in the public utility transmission provider’slocal planning process and simply “rolled‐up” and listed in the regionaltransmission plan for informational purposes and analysis. [P 318 and n.299]

Applicability ‐ This requirement does not apply to the right of an incumbent utilityto build, own, and recover costs for upgrades to its existing transmission facilities,and does not alter an incumbent transmission provider’s use and control ofexisting rights of way, even if such upgrades or facilities on existing rights‐of‐wayare selected in the regional transmission plan for purposes of cost allocation. [P319]

Page 37: Southwest Power Pool REGIONAL STATE COMMITTEE Southwest ... · the Office of Electric Reliability since its formation in 2006. October Mr. Clarey congratulated SPP and its Members

ROFR’s 4 Limitations• Rule removing ROFR from Commission approved tariffs and

agreements is subject to four limitations:

(1) This does not apply to a transmission facility that is not selected ina regional transmission plan for purposes of cost allocation;

(2) This does not apply to upgrades to transmission facilities, such astower change outs or reconductoring;

(3) This allows, but does not require, the use of competitive bidding tosolicit transmission projects or project developers; and

(4) Nothing in this requirement affects state or local laws orregulations regarding the construction of transmission facilities,including but not limited to authority over siting or permitting oftransmission facilities.

7

Page 38: Southwest Power Pool REGIONAL STATE COMMITTEE Southwest ... · the Office of Electric Reliability since its formation in 2006. October Mr. Clarey congratulated SPP and its Members

Order 1000‐A; Paragraph 426.“Petitioners request clarification about whether a transmission facility is a localtransmission facility if it is selected in a regional transmission plan for purposes of costallocation and the costs are allocated to a single pricing zone in which the proposedtransmission facility is to be located, and that zone consists of more than onetransmission provider. . . . In general, any regional allocation of the cost of a newtransmission facility outside a single transmission provider’s retail distribution serviceterritory or footprint, including an allocation to a “zone” consisting of more than onetransmission provider, is an application of the regional cost allocation method and thatnew transmission facility is not a local transmission facility. “

* * * * *

“However, we recognize . . . that special consideration is needed when a smalltransmission provider is located within the footprint of another transmission provider. “

* * * * * 

“Accordingly, we will address whether a cost allocation to a multi‐transmission providerzone is regional on a case‐by‐case basis based on the specific facts presented. Specificsituations may be included in a compliance filing along with the filed regional costallocation method or methods.”

Order 1000‐B; LaFleur Dissent Page 2After further consideration, I believe the Commissionacted prematurely in concluding that any amount ofregional funding converts an otherwise local reliabilityproject to a regional project for purposes of the ROFR. Byreaching this conclusion in the abstract, without thebenefit of considering stakeholder‐vetted proposals todefine local projects in light of the principles underlyingelimination of the ROFR and the requirement that costsmust be allocated in a manner that is at least roughlycommensurate with benefits, the Commission has deniedtransmission planning regions the flexibility it wiselyacknowledged to be necessary with respect to the zoneissue. I agree with SPP and OGE that we should providethat flexibility.8 9

COST ALLOCATION OF INTERREGIONAL PROJECTS

7

Background

• How should the costs of interregional projects be allocated within SPP?

– The principles adopted by the Seams Steering Committee were developed almost two years ago; memorialized in whitepaper

– Reviewed and input provided by CAWG to the SSC

• SSC recommended that:

– “regardless of voltage class, costs allocated to SPP … should be recovered under SPP’s Region‐wide Charge on the same basis as Base‐Plan Upgrades whose nominal operating voltage level is greater than or equal to 300 kV.” 

8

Page 63: Southwest Power Pool REGIONAL STATE COMMITTEE Southwest ... · the Office of Electric Reliability since its formation in 2006. October Mr. Clarey congratulated SPP and its Members

5

Inter‐Regional Cost Allocation TF

• Recommendation On Cost Allocation of Inter‐Regional Projects

– Concluded Byway projects deemed to be “Interregional” could be either 1) highway/byway or 2) highway,

– Preferred “highway” for Interregional Projects regardless of voltage.

9

Planning In the Past

• Projects that have shown benefits to our seams neighbors were marginalized in part due to a lack of cost allocation methodology

• For example:

– Chamber Springs to NW Texarkana

– Dolet Hills to Messick

– Turk to McNeilTurk to McNeil

10

Page 64: Southwest Power Pool REGIONAL STATE COMMITTEE Southwest ... · the Office of Electric Reliability since its formation in 2006. October Mr. Clarey congratulated SPP and its Members

6

Why To Allocate Inter‐Regional Costs Only to the Highway?• Lower voltage, underlying facilities can be the 

limiting element for a flowgate that could restrictlimiting element for a flowgate that could restrict interregional transfer capability

• Relieving this constraint can alleviate problems and result in additional transmission service being sold

• Such a result provides regional benefits

11

Why (cont.)

• If the highway/byway methodology is used, the zone that the facility is constructed in would be forced to pay costs “well in excess of its load ratio share” when the project provides sufficient benefits to multiple zones and should be 100% shared regionally.

– Is this equitable?

• Costs should be allocated “roughly commensurate” i h b fiwith benefits

12

Page 65: Southwest Power Pool REGIONAL STATE COMMITTEE Southwest ... · the Office of Electric Reliability since its formation in 2006. October Mr. Clarey congratulated SPP and its Members

7

Other Considerations

• The majority of the tie‐lines that connect SPP to its neighbors are below 300kV

– Upgrades to these facilities should provide significant benefits to the SPP region

– Regional allocation of these costs would increase the interest in pursuing these upgrades

13

CAWG Action

• At it’s October meeting, the CAWG discussed the options for allocation of costs of Inter‐Regional projects

• Recommendation that was adopted by CAWG:

– CAWG recommends that the Regional State Committee adopt a 100% regional allocation of costs related to Inter‐Regional planning processes.

CAWG RECOMMENDATION TO RSC

BackgroundBackground• The RSC has not specifically voted on the Intra-Regional

Allocation Method to be used for Inter-Regional (Seams) Cost which will be allocated to the SPP Region.

However:• The Seams Steering Committee (SSC) provided its

recommendation on the appropriate Intra-Regional Allocation of Seams Costs in its February 2011 White Paper

Page 1 of 9

Seams Costs in its February 2011 White Paper,

• The Interregional Cost Allocation Task Force (ICATF) addressed Intra-Regional Allocation of Seams Costs as presented to the RSC at its July 2012 meeting.

CAWG RECOMMENDATION TO RSC

Cost Assignment Options As Presented to CAWG:

1. Assign All Seams Costs to the Regional Rate( i,e. Highway)

2. Allocate Seams Costs pursuant to Currently Approved Allocation Methods (i.e Highway/Byway-dependent upon voltage of Seams Project)

CAWG RECOMMENDATION TO RSC

• The SSC Supports Assignment of Seams Costs To the• The SSC Supports Assignment of Seams Costs To the Regional Rate (i.e. Highway) as reflected in 2011 Whitepaper

• The ICATF, in its presentation to the RSC in July 2012, advised that, while it could support either (1) Allocation of Seams Costs pursuant to the Currently Approved Tariff (i.e. Highway/Byway – dependent upon voltage) or (2) Assignment

f All C t T th R i l R t (i Hi h ) th ICATF’

of All Costs To the Regional Rate (i.e. Highway), the ICATF’s preference is Assignment of Seams Costs to the Regional Rate.

Page 3 of 9

CAWG RECOMMENDATION TO RSC

1. Assignment to the Regional Rate – CAWG Considerations for g gsupport of this treatment:

A. Projects chosen in an Inter-Regional Process differ from SPPregional projects:i. By definition, Inter-Regional Projects are measured to provide

benefits region- wide. ii. Inter-Regional Projects may be contained entirely in

the non-SPP region but with costs allocated to SPP. g

B. Regional Rate Treatment will encourage Inter-Regional Projects.

C. Regional Rate Treatment of Seams Projects, as Base PlanProjects, will help provide a better balance of costs and benefits under the currently approved allocation method.

CAWG RECOMMENDATION TO RSC

2. Use Current Highway/Byway (based on voltage) –2. Use Current Highway/Byway (based on voltage) Considerations for its support:

A. Assigning all Seams projects to the Regional Rate will require tariff change.

B. Highway/Byway is based on SPP studies and approved by FERC. C. There is no evidence that Highway/Byway treatment would “harm”

Seams projects.D Existing tariff allows for waivers of Highway/Byway as well as a 3

D. Existing tariff allows for waivers of Highway/Byway, as well as a 3-year review of any unintended consequences.

E. Assigning lower voltage seams projects to Regional Rate is notconsistent with SPP’s Order 1000 ROFR argument.

CAWG RECOMMENDATION TO RSC

2. Use Current Highway/Byway (based on voltage) – (cont )2. Use Current Highway/Byway (based on voltage) (cont.) Responses to Considerations for its support:

A. A tariff change will be required irrespective of allocation treatment.B. Seams projects will be based on Inter-regional studies for regional

benefits, with the inter-regional allocation of costs to the SPP regiondone using a significantly different method than used in current regional allocation.

6

C. Zonal assignment of all costs of seams projects, which by definition garner regional benefits, would be unfair to zone .

D. “Cost Allocation by waiver” is impractical, given the expected regional benefits seams projects should provide.

E. Order 1000-A ,irrespective of voltage or regional allocation, appears to eliminate Federal ROFR for all seams projects.

CAWG RECOMMENDATION TO RSC

Based on the unique qualities of seams projects, including the inter-q q p j , gregional process and cost assignment, the following motion was made to and passed by the majority of CAWG members:

CAWG recommends that the Regional State Committee adopt a 100% Regional allocation of costs related to inter-regional projects selected pursuant to inter-regional planning processes.

The roll call vote was as follows

The roll call vote was as follows:

New Mexico: No Nebraska: Yes Oklahoma: Yes Texas: NoKansas: Yes Missouri: Yes Arkansas: Yes

Page 7 of 9

CAWG RECOMMENDATION TO RSC

Note that, in dissenting with the CAWG majority, the Texas CAWG , g j y,representative suggested an alternative treatment, recommending that the RSC should adopt current Highway/Byway treatment of SPP’s portion of costs for inter-regional projects, with the option to seek waiver of that treatment if the inter-regional project can be shown to provide regional benefits.

In discussions on this suggestion, CAWG members determined that a t ll ti th d i t th id i h

8

set allocation method was more appropriate than considering each seams project’s allocation on a case-by-case basis (i.e. Allocation-by-Waiver).

CAWG RECOMMENDATION TO RSC

BACKGROUND:

1. Request:

As required by the timing requirements within the SPP Tariff, on July 26. 2012, Nebraska Public Power District (NPPD) sought a waiver of the current cost allocation requirements for a base plan transformerthe current cost allocation requirements for a base plan transformer to be installed at or near Neligh, Nebraska (Neligh Transformer). The Neligh Transformer is a 345/115 kV transformer and was part of a 345 kV ITP10 approved project. The current estimated allocated cost of the Transformer is $5,244,000.

CAWG RECOMMENDATION TO RSC

2. Tariff Requirements - Attachment J

A. Transformer Allocation Basis:Within a Base Plan Upgrade, a Transformer connected at two different voltage levels is considered to be at the lower voltage level for purposes of cost allocation.

B. Waiver of Allocation BasisA waiver to assume the higher voltage level for cost allocation may be requested based on actual use of the transformer.

CAWG RECOMMENDATION TO RSC

2. Tariff Requirements - Attachment J (cont)

D. Waiver Determinants:

Factors in this usage determination include but are not limited to:

(i) that power-flows are predominately from lower voltage to higher(i) that power-flows are predominately from lower voltage to higher voltage;

(ii) that the transformer is not necessary for the support of, or does not substantially benefit, the lower voltage system in the host zone to which it is connected.

3

CAWG RECOMMENDATION TO RSC

SPP/NPPD ANALYSIS

Analyses were conducted which captured the operation of the Neligh Transformer, the results of which were:

1. Flows were predominantly from the 115 kV side to 345 kV side of the Transformer - with 59% of hours flowing upthe Transformer - with 59% of hours flowing up.

2. The Neligh Transformer was not needed by the underlying system and “but for” the Neligh/Hoskins 345 kV project, would not have been required.

3

CAWG RECOMMENDATION TO RSC

CAWG CONCLUSION

Based on the analysis performed, the proposed Waiver request meets the Tariff minimum requirements to qualify the Neligh Transformer at the higher voltage level (i.e. 345 kV) for cost allocation purposes, with approval of that Waiver consistent with prior waiver request determinationsprior waiver request determinations.

5

CAWG RECOMMENDATION TO RSC

CAWG RECOMMENDATION:

SPP Staff will recommend approval of NPPD’s Waiver Request for the Neligh Transformer. Therefore,

CAWG recommends that the RSC endorse the recommendation for the SPP Board to approve the NPPD Neligh Transformerfor the SPP Board to approve the NPPD Neligh Transformer Waiver Request.

SPP Study Recommendations• Need more structured and understandable communication

between producers, utilities, OCC, and SPP. • SPP should set a “Date Certain” for AQ Study Process to

stop continual restarts on evaluations.• Consider Planning and Modeling group needs in order to

decrease response time• Need transparent tracking of requests as they go through

the process.• Consider outsourcing studies to accelerate process where

it makes sense.• Help identify potential transmission system solutions.• Consideration of specialist at SPP to work with producers

to better report anticipated needs.10

Southwest Power Pool, Inc. FOURTH QUARTERLY PROJECT TRACKING REPORT

October 2012

I. Project Tracking, Current SPP Process: SPP actively monitors and supports the progress of transmission expansion projects, emphasizing the importance of maintaining accountability for areas such as grid regional reliability standards, firm transmission commitments and tariff cost recovery. Each quarter SPP staff solicits feedback from the project owners to determine the progress of each approved transmission project. This quarterly report charts the progress of all SPP Transmission Expansion Plan (STEP) projects approved either directly by the Board of Directors or through a FERC filed service agreement under the SPP Open Access Transmission Tariff (OATT). In this Fourth Quarterly Report of 2012, the reporting period is June 1, 2012 through August 31, 2012.

II. Project Summary:

Figure 1 represents the summary of active projects for this quarter. Figure 1 reflects all upgrades, including transmission lines, transformers, substations, and devices. There were no Notifications to Construct issued this quarter, which is common following the large number of new upgrades issued in the 2nd Quarter.

Figure 2 shows the total miles of transmission lines currently planned within the portfolio, as well as miles by project voltage. Figure 3 reflects the percentage cost of each project type in the total active portfolio.

III. Regional Reliability Project Summary:

Regional reliability projects include all tariff signatory projects identified in an SPP study to meet regional reliability criteria for which NTC letters have been issued. Figure 4 shows the breakdown of the regional reliability projects.

There were 16 upgrades, with latest Engineering and Construction (E&C) cost estimates of $106 million completed in the timeframe of the 3rd Quarter of 2012. The largest project completed was the 46.5 miles of new 345kV line in Oklahoma Gas and Electric Company’s portion of the Rose Hill to Sooner project, estimated at $44.7 million. Also completed this quarter were 62 miles of 230kV line built from Hitchland-Moore County by Southwestern Public Service Company. The cost for the project was almost $37 million. Eleven projects that were on track to be completed this quarter have been delayed until later in the reporting period.

There are 54 upgrades, with latest E&C cost estimates of $386.4 million, on schedule to be completed within the next four years. 139 upgrades, with latest E&C cost estimates of $761 million, are in a delayed status with mitigation.

IV. Transmission Service/Generation Interconnection (TSR/GI) Project Summary:

This category contains upgrades identified as needed to support new Transmission Service (TSR) and Generation Interconnection (GI) service agreements. Figure 4 shows the details of the Transmission Service and Generation Interconnect projects.

Ten Transmission Service upgrades, with latest E&C cost estimates at $98 million were completed in the 3rd Quarter of 2012. American Electric Power’s Turk to Northwest Texarkana project completed this quarter with an estimated cost of $44 million, adding 33 miles of 345kV line into the footprint. Also completed was ITC Great Plains Valliant to Hugo project, delivering 19 miles of 345kV line and equipment at an estimated cost of $35 million. There are nine Transmission Service upgrades, with estimated E&C costs of $179.6 million, on schedule to be completed within the next four years. There are 12 Generation Interconnect upgrades, at an estimated E&C cost of $69.3 million, scheduled to be completed in the next four years.

V. Completed Projects Summary:

Figure 5 shows the number and costs for the projects completed over the last 12 month period. The 3rd Quarter of 2012 produced 26 projects that were completed with a total estimated cost of $204.4 million. Although 28 projects were completed for this same period in 2011, the total cost in the 3rd Quarter of 2011 was $84.1 million, which reflects a significantly larger investment in the footprint in the same period of 2012.

Previous quarter’s updated results are listed as the Transmission Owners may make adjustments to final costs and status of projects completed during the year. Corrections are listed for those projects reported complete after the 3rd Quarter reporting period had ended.

VI. Future Projections:

4th Quarter 2012:

The 4th Quarter of 2012, ending November 30, 2012 is scheduled to have 16 projects completed across all project types at an estimated cost of $44 million. The largest project is Midwest Energy-Westar Energy’s Rice-Circle 230kV conversion project at an estimated cost of $18.7 million. Figure 7 shows the 4th Quarter estimated completed projects broken out by Project Type.

There are 10 miles of new transmission scheduled to be completed in the next quarter, along with 25 miles of reconductored transmission added to the footprint. Figure 8 shows the details of the estimated transmission miles to be completed in the 4th Quarter.

September 2012 through August 2013:

The next 12 months are scheduled to have a total of 127 upgrades completed at an estimated cost of $752 million. This is higher than last quarter’s projections, as several projects were delayed into this 12 month period, along with the large amount of completed projects scheduled for June of 2013 (56). Figure 7 shows the next 12 months estimated completed projects broken out by Project Type.

Page 169: Southwest Power Pool REGIONAL STATE COMMITTEE Southwest ... · the Office of Electric Reliability since its formation in 2006. October Mr. Clarey congratulated SPP and its Members

There are scheduled to be 294 miles of new transmission added to the system during the next 12 month period. 161 miles of 345 kV transmission lines are still scheduled to be completed. There will also be 251 miles of reconductored transmission placed into the system. Figure 9 shows the details of the estimated transmission miles to be completed over the next 12 months.

Mitigation will not be needed. The 115 kV potion of this project is 100 % complete. The new 115/69 kV transformer at Eagle Creek is carrying load. The new 69 kV lines out of Eagle Creek are not complete. However the existing 69 kV lines are terminated on the Eagle Creek Substation 69 kV bus. To address the overload of one Artesia Interchange 115/69 kV transformer during the outage of the other Artesia Interchange 115/69 Kv transformer, the above latest model was used.
