MOTION OF ELECTRIC POWER SUPPLY ASSOCIATION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO COMMENT ON MARKET-BASED RATE AUTHORIZATION INVESTIGATION

CONCLUSION

Recognizing the vast and uncertain consequences of this Order, the Commission should grant industry participants sufficient time to study and reply to the Commission in this docket. Prior to moving forward with an order that will have such a profound effect on electric generation and on wholesale trading, the Commission should gather a complete record. A 15-day comment period is simply not enough time for industry participants to meaningfully reply to the Commission on such important matters, particularly given the holiday season and the full plate of issues including the ANOPR on Generator Interconnection Procedures, the NOPR on Standards of Conduct, not to mention the continuing and ongoing proceedings on RTO development currently being considered by the Commission and the industry. For these reasons, the Commission should grant EPSA’s request for extension in this docket for 30 days to file initial comments and 30 days thereafter to file reply comments.

Respectfully submitted,
