Part II of the Federal Power Act ( 16 U.S.C. 824 et seq. ) is further amended by adding at the end the following: Any transmitting utility that owns, controls, or operates a transmission facility of national significance, or proposes to own, control, or operate a transmission facility of national significance, may file a tariff with the Commission in accordance with section 205 allocating the costs of constructing, modifying, and operating such transmission facility of national significance in accordance with paragraph (2). The Commission shall require that any tariff described in paragraph
(1)allocate the cost to construct, modify, and operate a transmission facility of national significance to customers within the applicable transmission planning region or regions in a manner that is roughly commensurate with the reasonably anticipated transmission benefits. In this section, the term transmission facility of national significance means— an interstate electric power transmission line (and any facilities necessary for the operation of such electric power transmission line)— that has a transmission capacity of not less than 1,000 megawatts; and the construction of which is completed on or after the date of enactment of this section; an electric power transmission line (and any facilities necessary for the operation of such electric power transmission line) that is located offshore, the construction of which is completed on or after the date of enactment of this section; or an expansion of, or upgrade to, an interstate electric power transmission line (and any facilities necessary for the operation of such electric power transmission line) that— increases the transmission capacity of such electric power transmission line by at least 500 megawatts; and the construction of which is completed on or after the date of enactment of this section. This section does not affect the authority of the Commission to approve the allocation of costs of transmission facilities other than transmission facilities of national significance. .
