I.D No. PSC-39-16-00025-P
Clean Energy Standard
PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE State Administrative Procedure Act, NOTICE is hereby given of the following proposed rule:
Proposed Action:
The Commission is considering a petition seeking rehearing of its August 1, 2016 Order Adopting a Clean Energy Standard filed on September 1, 2016 by the Public Utility Law Project, New York (PULP).
Statutory authority:
Public Service Law, sections 4(1), 5(1)(2) and 66(2); Energy Law, section 6-104(5)(b)
Subject:
Clean Energy Standard.
Purpose:
To promote and maintain renewable and zero-emission electric energy resources.
Substance of proposed rule:
The Public Service Commission is considering a petition filed on September 1, 2016 by the Public Utility Law Project of New York (PULP) that requests rehearing of the Commission’s August 1, 2016 Order Adopting a Clean Energy Standard (CES Order). PULP argues that the Commission’s CES Order violated the State Administrative Procedure Act (SAPA) by failing to provide an opportunity to be heard in a meaningful manner at a meaningful time related to Staff’s Responsive Proposal. PULP argues that Staff’s Responsive Proposal constitutes a substantial revision under SAPA § 102(9) from the original proposal and should have been subject to an additional 45 day comment period. PULP requests that the Commission reconsider its CES Order based on the alleged failure to comply with SAPA. The Commission may adopt, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the relief proposed and may resolve related matters.
