Rates for Production and Delivery Services
PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE State Administrative Procedure Act, NOTICE is hereby given of the following action:
Action taken:
Redesign rates for production and delivery services charged to New York City Governmental Customers and Westchester County Governmental Customers.
Statutory authority:
Public Authorities Law, section 1005(6) and (11)
Subject:
Rates for production and delivery services.
Purpose:
To properly align costs with rates.
Substance of final rule:
The Power Authority’s Notice of Proposed Rulemaking published on April 13, 2011 proposed to redesign rates for both production and delivery services charged to New York City Governmental Customers and Westchester County Governmental Customers (collectively “Customers”) and to implement related tariff changes. This rate redesign will properly align costs with rates and is revenue neutral to the Authority. For production, the rate redesign immediately aligns cost with rates for Authority Customers. For delivery, the rate redesign gradually aligns costs with rates through a four-year phase-in.
Comments were received from the City of New York, Westchester County, the Port Authority of New York and Jersey (“Port Authority”), and the Metropolitan Transportation Authority. Based on those comments and staff’s analysis, except for certain changes regarding Port Authority production rates, the Authority adopts the rate redesign as originally proposed. The implementation of production minimum billing will be delayed until the 2012 rate year in order to allow Customers more time to understand the impact of these provisions. The rate redesign will become effective for the service period commencing July 2011.
Final rule as compared with last published rule:
Substantial revisions were made in section A, part 6.
Text of rule and any required statements and analyses may be obtained from:
Karen Delince, Corporate Secretary, Power Authority of the State of New York, 123 Main Street, 11-P, White Plains, New York 10601, (914) 390-8085, email: [email protected]
