SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Commission is responding to comments 

on its request for a three-year extension 

of the information collected under 

FERC–919 (OMB Control No. 1902– 

0234) ‘‘Market Based Rates for 

Wholesale Sales of Electric Energy, 

Capacity and Ancillary Services by 

Public Utilities.’’ Order No. 697 1 was 

issued by the Commission on June 21, 

2007 to modify Subpart H to 18 Code of 

Federal Regulations (CFR) part 35, 

governing market-based authorization. 

In Order No. 697, the Commission 

revised and codified its standards for 

obtaining and retaining market-based 

rates for public utilities. Order No. 697 

also made minor adjustments to the 

change in status filing requirements 

adopted in Order No. 652.2 It added a 

requirement to include appendices of 

generation and transmission assets in 

the form provided in Appendix B of 

Order No. 697 when reporting a change 

in status regarding a change that 

impacts the pertinent assets held by a 

seller or its affiliates with market-based 

rate authorization. 

The market power analyses required 

by Order No. 697 help to inform the 

Commission as to whether an entity 

seeking market-based rate authority 

lacks market power, and whether rates 

charged by that entity will be just and 

reasonable. The updated market power 

analyses allow the Commission to 

monitor changes in a seller’s market 

presence or potential abuses of market 

power. The use of the Order No. 697 

screens and reviews for market power 

for all companies seeking authority for 

market-based rates and those who have 

been charging market based rates results 

in a consistent authorization and review 

process. It provides regulatory certainty 

while ensuring the Commission meets
