Repayment Study: Existing rate 

schedules are predicated upon an 

August 2011 repayment study and other 

supporting data contained in FERC 

docket number EF11–13–000. The 

annual revenue requirement in this 

study is $59,600,000. An updated 

repayment study, dated January 2015, 

indicates rates are not adequate to 

recover cost increases that have been 

identified and therefore do not meet 

repayment criteria. The additional costs 

are due to numerous factors. Corps 

Operation & Maintenance expenses have 

exceeded estimates and current rate 

schedules did not include costs 

associated with the dam safety repairs of 

the Wolf Creek and Center Hill Projects. 

The dam repair costs, after the 

application of the Dam Safety Act 

(Water Resources Development Act of 

1986 section 1203), are a combined 

$83,200,000. The Corps has also 

provided Southeastern with an updated 

plan of major replacements for the 

Cumberland System with the total cost 

of these planned replacements at 

$868,000,000. Also, TVA notified 

Southeastern on March 5, 2015 they will 

charge $1,009,850 per month for 

delivery of capacity and energy to the 

outside TVA customers. A revised 

repayment study demonstrates that a 

revenue increase to $78,500,000 per 

year will meet repayment criteria. The 

increase in the annual revenue 

requirement is $18,900,000 per year, or 

about 32 percent. 

Applicability of the Dam Safety Act: 

Under section 1203 of the Water 

Resources Development Act of 1986, 

otherwise known as the Dam Safety Act, 

Congress capped the percentage of dam 

repair costs that may be assigned to 

project purposes (such as hydropower) 

at 15 percent. This cap applies to dam 

modification costs, ‘‘the cause of which 

results from new hydrologic or seismic 

data or changes in the state-of-the-art 

design or construction criteria deemed 

necessary for safety purposes’’. 33 

U.S.C. 467n(a). When applicable, the 

Dam Safety Act requires that dam safety 

repair costs be recovered within thirty 

years of completion of the work. If the 

Dam Safety Act is not applied, 100 

percent of all costs are assigned to 

project purposes for cost recovery but 

the thirty-year cost recovery 

requirement does not attach. 

Southeastern continues to discuss, 

analyze and seek guidance on the issue 

from other relevant agencies. 

Proposed Rates: Southeastern is 

proposing three rate scenarios per rate 

schedule. All of the rate scenarios have 

an annual revenue requirement of 

$78,500,000. This annual revenue 

requirement was calculated using the 

lower bound of possible costs associated 

with the Wolf Creek and Center Hill 

Dam repairs: 15 percent assigned to 

project purposes and recovered within 

thirty years of completion, an amount 

that may be adjusted upward pending 

final determination of the Dam Safety 

Act’s applicability. 

The first rate scenario includes the 

rates necessary to recover costs under 

the Revised Interim Operating Plan. 

Under this scenario, the capacity rate at 

the TVA border is $2.28 per kilowatt per 

month and the energy charge is 14.79 

mills per kilowatt-hour. The outside 

customers would pay their portion of 

the transmission credit provided TVA 

for delivery of capacity and energy to 

neighboring system interconnection 

points, as agreed by contract between 

Southeastern and TVA. This rate would 

remain in effect under the Revised 

Interim Operating Plan. 

The second rate scenario would 

recover cost from capacity and energy. 

The revenue requirement under this 

alternative would be $78,500,000 per 

year. This scenario would be in effect if 

Southeastern changes the Revised 

Interim Operating Plan. 

The third rate scenario is based on the 

original Cumberland Marketing Policy. 

All costs are recovered from capacity 

and excess energy. The rates under this 

alternative would be as follows: 

Cumberland System Rates 

Third Scenario—Return to Original 

Marketing Policy 

Inside TVA Preference Customers 

Capacity and Base Energy: $3.733 per 

kW/Month 

Additional Energy: 13.914 mills per 

kWh 

Transmission: Pass-through 

Outside TVA Preference Customers 

(Excluding Customers served through 

Carolina Power & Light Company or 

East Kentucky Power Cooperative) 

Capacity and Base Energy: $3.733 per 

kW/Month 

Additional Energy: 13.914 mills per 

kWh 

Transmission: Monthly TVA 

Transmission Charge divided by 

545,000 

Customers Served Through Carolina 

Power & Light Company 

Capacity and Base Energy: $4.249 per 

kW/Month 

TVA Transmission: TVA rate at border 

as computed above, adjusted for DEP 

delivery. 

DEP Transmission: $1.546 per kW/

Month 

(As of 2/1/2015 and provided for 

illustrative purposes) 

East Kentucky Power Cooperative: 

Capacity: $1.994 per kW/Month 

Energy: 13.914 mills per kWh 

These rates would go into effect once 

the Corps lifts the restrictions on the 

operation of the Wolf Creek and Center 

Hill Projects and the Revised Interim 

Operating Plan and Southeastern 

returns to normal operations. 

The referenced repayment studies are 

available for examination at 1166 

Athens Tech Road, Elberton, Georgia 

30635–6711. The Proposed Rate 

Schedules CBR–1–I, CSI–1–I, CEK–1–I,

CTVI–1–B, and Replacement-3 are also

Abstract: These regulations apply to 

hot mix asphalt facilities comprised 

only of a combination of the following: 

Dryers; systems for screening, handling, 

storing, and weighing hot aggregate; 

systems for loading, transferring, and 

storing mineral filler; systems for 

mixing hot mix asphalt; and the loading, 

transfer, and storage systems associated 

with emission control systems. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: Hot 

mix asphalt facilities. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart I). 

Estimated number of respondents: 

4,640 (total). 

Frequency of response: Initially and 

occasionally. 

Total estimated burden: 19,000 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.3(b). 

Total estimated cost: $1,893,000 (per 

year), includes $0 annualized capital or 

operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

adjustment increase in the estimated 

burden as currently identified in the 

OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. 

The increase is not due to any program 

changes. The change in burden occurred 

because the number of respondents 

subject to the standard has increased 

since the last ICR renewal period. In 

addition, the use of more updated labor 

rates results in an increase in total labor 

costs.
