E-2 – Phillips 66 Company (Docket No. ER21-2283-000). On June 30, 2021, Phillips 66 Company (Phillips 66) filed a proposed amendment to its market-based rate schedule pursuant to section 205 of the Federal Power Act (FPA). In the filing, Phillips 66 seeks approval to remove affiliate restrictions from its rate schedule, citing a lack of necessity from this point forward due to the impending implementation of Order No. 860 and that Berkshire Hathaway Inc. has notified Phillips 66 it no longer has a ten percent or greater interest in the company and, therefore, does not treat Phillips 66 as an affiliate. On August 24, 2021, Phillips 66 submitted an amendment to the June 30 filing, namely furnishing information to confirm that it lacks horizontal market power in the balancing authority areas (BAAs) relevant to the proposed revisions. Agenda item E-2 may be an order on the proposed amendment to the market-based rate schedule of Phillips 66.

E-3 – CPRE 1 Lessee, LLC (Docket No. ER21-2426-000). On July 14, 2021, CPRE 1 Lessee, LLC (CPRE) filed an application for authorization of limited market-based wholesale sales of capacity and energy per the proposed market-based rate tariff, pursuant to section 205 of the FPA, Rules 204 and 205 of the Rules of Practice and Procedure of the Commission, and Part 35 of the regulations of the Commission. CPRE stated that, following Commission authorization to Duke Energy Corporation (Duke) in 2019 to make market-based rate sales to three companies through the mandated competitive procurement of renewable energy generation established by the North Carolina state legislature, it seeks limited market-based rate authority to make power sales to an affiliate and to overcome the existing geographic prohibition on Duke affiliates from making sales in the Duke BAA. In the filing, CPRE requested that the three companies be granted the same limited market-based rate authority, as the project developers will enter into a series of transactions that will create another unregulated affiliate but will not alter the terms and conditions of the existing power purchase agreements (PPAs) in any material way. On August 24, 2021, CPRE submitted additional information, namely the underlying PPAs held by the three companies that will be assigned to CPRE following consummation of the transaction. Agenda item E-3 may be an order on the market-based rate authority application by CPRE.

E-4 – Omitted

E-5 – Athens Utilities Board, Gibson Electric Membership Corporation, Joe Wheeler Electric Membership Corporation and Volunteer Energy Cooperative v. Tennessee Valley Authority (Docket Nos. EL21-40-000; TX21-1-000). On January 11, 2021, Athens Utilities Board, Gibson Electric Membership Corporation, Joe Wheeler Electric Membership Corporation and Volunteer Energy Cooperative (collectively, Petitioners) filed a complaint and petition for order against the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), pursuant to sections 210, 211A, 306, 307, 308, and 309 of the FPA and Rule 206 of the Rules of Practice and Procedure of the Commission. In the filing, Petitioners seek Commission action directing TVA to provide unbundled transmission service to Petitioners seeking to serve their load, as local power companies (LPCs), respectively, at rates and on terms and conditions comparable to TVA offers and to formalize interconnection arrangements and provide interconnection service to Petitioners upon the termination of existing full-requirements power supply contracts with TVA. Among a number of protests and substantive comments opposing the complaint, TVA filed a protest, answer, and motion to intervene on February 22, 2021. TVA asserted that the Commission lacks the statutory authority to grant the relief sought by Petitioners due to TVA existing as a federal agency required to balance the economic and energy considerations of the Tennessee Valley region. TVA stated that section 211A of the FPA authorizes the Commission to regulate rates, terms and conditions of transmission service that the TVA Board has already decided to provide, but does not authorize the Commission to require TVA to offer expanded transmission service. According to TVA, Congress gave the TVA Board (and not the Commission) authority to resolve the fundamental question whether to offer wheeling transmission service to LPCs. Agenda item E-5 may be an order on the complaint as raised by Petitioners or setting the matter for hearing and further judgment.

E-6 – Southern California Edison Company (Docket No. ER19-2505-004; ER19-2505-006). On July 13, 2021, Southern California Edison Company (SCE) filed an explanatory statement furnishing details regarding the offer of settlement purporting to resolve all issues in the ongoing proceedings related to its Wholesale Distribution Access Tariff (WDAT). SCE proposed amendments to the existing WDAT on March 30, 2018, whereby it would include inbound Charging Distribution Service (CDS) for storage resources (as-available only, not firm). The Commission ultimately rejected this proposal and directed SCE to provide storage resources the ability to obtain CDS with the same curtailment priority as other wholesale loads. Accordingly, SCE filed amendments to the WDAT CDS provisions on July 31, 2019 where it would offer as-available and firm services. On January 24, 2020, the Commission issued an order accepting the proposed revisions and established settlement judge procedures. On January 6, 2021, the parties involved reached a settlement in principle, and on March 8, 2021, the parties jointly submitted a motion to place certain rates, terms, and conditions of the settlement into effect on an interim basis. The presiding Chief Judge approved the motion on March 16, 2021. On August 24, 2021, the settlement judge issued a certification of uncontested settlement and terminated settlement judge procedures on August 30, 2021. Agenda item E-6 may be an order on the settlement as brought forward by SCE.

C-3 – Northern States Power Company, a Minnesota Corporation (Docket No. CP21-486-000). On August 19, 2021, Northern States Power Company, a Minnesota Corporation (NSPM) filed a petition for declaratory order regarding jurisdictional status and request for expedited action related to the prospective acquisition of certain natural gas supply assets. In the filing, NSPM requests that the Commission clarify its standing as a natural gas local distribution company exempt from Commission jurisdiction pursuant to the NGA and the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978. NSPM states that the proposed transaction would acquire supply facilities from an interstate natural gas pipeline company which would abandon by sale under the existing automatic blanket certificate possessed by the seller. The facilities would then be incorporated into the local distribution system network of NSPM and therefore used solely for non-jurisdictional activity of providing natural gas service to local distribution company customers. Agenda item C-3 may be an order on the petition as brought forward by NSPM.

C-4 – Northwest Pipeline LLC (Docket No. CP15-8-000). On October 27, 2014, Northwest Pipeline LLC (Northwest) filed an application, pursuant to section 7(c) of the NGA and Subpart A of Part 157 of the Regulations of the Commission, for a certificate of public convenience and necessity (CPCN) authorizing the construction and operation of the proposed Kalama Lateral Project. Northwest states that the Project would consist of 3.1 miles of new pipeline and related facilities in order to connect to a proposed methanol production plant located in Cowlitz County, Washington. A number of federal agencies with jurisdiction over various components of the Project filed scoping comments and requests for information in the ensuing months. On July 13, 2015, the Commission issued the Environmental Assessment for the Project, finding that, with appropriate mitigating measures as recommended by staff, approval would not constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. On April 11, 2016, the Commission issued an order granting the CPCN; subsequently, Northwest filed a notice of acceptance of the CPCN on April 19, 2016. Several intervening parties filed comments in opposition or requests to stay the CPCN, none of which were granted by the Commission. On August 20, 2021, Northwest filed a motion to vacate the CPCN authorization, citing that the purported sole customer of the Project had announced on June 11, 2021 the termination of the lease agreement with the Port of Kalama. Therefore, Northwest indicated there is uncertainty as to the future economic viability of the Project. Agenda item C-4 may be an order on the request to vacate CPCN authorization of the Kalama Lateral Project by Northwest.
