BILLING CODE 6717-01-P DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Federal Energy Regulatory Commission [Docket No. EF02-4011-000] Southwestern Power Administration; Notice of Filing September 26, 2002. Take notice that the Secretary, U.S. Department of Energy on September 20, 2002, submitted to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) for confirmation and approval on a final basis, pursuant to the authority vested in the Commission by Delegation Order No. 00-037.00, effective December 6, 2001, the following Southwestern Power Administration (Southwestern) Integrated System rate schedules:
Rate Schedule P-02, Wholesale Rates for Hydro Peaking Power Rate Schedule NFTS-02, Wholesale Rates for Non-Federal Transmission/Interconnection Facilities Service Rate Schedule EE-02, Wholesale Rate for Excess Energy The Integrated System (System) rate schedules were confirmed and approved on an interim basis by the Secretary in Rate Order No. SWPA-48 for the period October 1, 2002, through September 30, 2006, and have been submitted to the Commission for confirmation and approval on a final basis for the same period.
The System rates will increase the annual revenue from $109,463,500 to $115,006,176 primarily to recover increased expenditures in operation and maintenance (O&M) and investment. In addition, an analysis of the Purchased Power Deferral Account indicates the need for an annual increase of $595,827 to recover the purchased energy costs. The total annual revenue increase will be $6,138,503, or 5.6 percent effective October 1, 2002. Southwestern has continued the rate structure that conforms with the intent of the Commission Order No. 888; consequently, the actual rate impact on each customer will vary based on the type of service requested and provided.
The proposal also includes a continuation of the Administrator's Discretionary Purchased Power Adder Adjustment, to adjust the purchased power adder annually up to $0.0011 per kilowatt-hour as necessary, under a formula-type rate, with notification to the Commission. The Secretary has also submitted for confirmation and approval on a final basis the previous extension of the Integrated System rates. The extension was confirmed and approved on an interim basis by the Deputy Secretary in Rate Order No.
