the Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission’s (Commission or FERC’s) 

regulations, 18 CFR part 380 (Order No. 

486, 52 FR 47897), the Office of Energy 

Projects has reviewed Reedsport OPT 

Wave Park, LLC’s application for license 

for the Reedsport OPT Wave Park 

Project (FERC Project No. 12713–002), 

which would be located in Oregon State 

territorial waters about 2.5 nautical 

miles off the coast near Reedsport, in 

Douglas County, Oregon. 

Staff prepared an environmental 

assessment (EA), which analyzes the 

potential environmental effects of 

licensing the project and concludes that 

licensing the project, with appropriate 

environmental protective measures, 

would not constitute a major federal 

action that would significantly affect the 

quality of the human environment. 

A copy of the EA is available for 

review at the Commission in the Public 

Reference Room or may be viewed on 

the Commission’s Web site at http:// 

www.ferc.gov using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link.

2015 Resource Pool—Sierra Nevada 

Region 

AGENCY: Western Area Power 

Administration, DOE. 

ACTION: Notice of Final Power 

Allocations. 

SUMMARY: The Western Area Power 

Administration (Western), a Federal 

power marketing administration of DOE, 

announces the Final 2015 Resource Pool 

allocations pursuant to its 2004 Power 

Marketing Plan (Marketing Plan) for the 

Sierra Nevada Customer Service Region 

(SNR). This notice includes a summary 

of the comments received on Western’s 

proposed 2015 Resource Pool 

allocations and Western’s responses. 

DATES: The Final 2015 Resource Pool 

allocations will become effective on 

January 10, 2011. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. 

Sonja Anderson, Power Marketing 

Manager, Western Area Power 

Administration, Sierra Nevada 

Customer Service Region, 114 Parkshore 

Drive, Folsom, CA 95630–4710, (916) 

353–4421, sanderso@wapa.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Western published its Marketing Plan 

for SNR in the Federal Register (64 FR 

34417, June 25, 1999). The Marketing 

Plan specifies the terms and conditions 

under which Western markets power 

from the Central Valley Project and the 

Washoe Project beginning January 1, 

2005, and continuing through December 

31, 2024. The Marketing Plan sets aside 

a portion of the SNR’s marketable power 

resources to establish a 2015 Resource 

Pool for new power allocations. 

On June 3, 2009, Western published 

the Call for 2015 Resource Pool 

Applications in the Federal Register (74 

FR 26671). On September 28, 2009, 

Western published a Notice of 

Extension in the Federal Register (74 FR 

49366). The Call for 2015 Resource Pool 

Applications required that applications 

be submitted by August 3, 2009, and the 

Notice of Extension extended the 

application date to October 28, 2009. In 

response to the call for applications, 

Western received 57 applications. After 

reviewing and considering the 

applications, on July 30, 2010, Western 

published the Proposed 2015 Resource 

Pool Allocations in the Federal Register 

(75 FR 44942) and opened a 30-day 

comment period on those allocations. 

The formal comment period on the 

proposed power allocations from the 

2015 Resource Pool ended on August 

30, 2010. A summary of the comments 

received and Western’s responses are 

provided below. After considering all 

comments, Western has decided to 

finalize the proposed power allocations. 

Responses to Comments Received on 

The Notice of Proposed 2015 Resource 

Pool Allocations (75 Fr 44942, July 30, 

2010) 

During the comment period, Western 

received six letters commenting on the 

proposed allocations from the 2015 

Resource Pool. Western reviewed and 

considered all comments. The 

comments and Western’s responses are 

provided below. 

Comment: Two commentors 

expressed their appreciation and 

support for the proposed 2015 Resource 

Pool allocations. 

Response: Western notes the 

comments of support for its 2015 

Resource Pool allocations. 

Comment: Three commentors 

requested that Western reconsider 

providing them with an allocation from 

the 2015 Resource Pool. One commentor 

stated the cost of electricity is critical to 

the success of its programs, which carry 

out energy-intensive scientific and 

national defense research. Another 

stated it is committed to the 

environment and that commitment is 

demonstrated through various projects 

using Western’s power such as 

providing power to docked ships and 

charging batteries for ground equipment 

at the airport. Another stated that it is 

ready and able to use an increased 

allocation to meet Reclamation Act 

goals of widespread use. 

Response: Western recognizes that the 

commentors perform important 

functions. Western has a limited amount 

of power to allocate, and not all 

applicants received an allocation of 

Federal power. The Resource Pool was 

made up of only 2 percent of the SNR’s 

resources available for marketing. 

Western received 57 applications for an 

allocation from the 2015 Resource Pool 

and evaluated those applications and 

made allocations according to the 

eligibility and allocation criteria set 

forth in the Marketing Plan. 

Comment: Four commentors 

requested that, in the event some 

allottees are unable to take the 

mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES

76976 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 237 / Friday, December 10, 2010 / Notices 

allocation, Western should consider 

providing the commentors with an 

allocation/increased allocation from the 

2015 Resource Pool. Three of those 

commentors are expecting their loads to 

increase in the coming years. 

Response: Western will allocate any 

available power according to the 

eligibility and allocation criteria set 

forth in the Marketing Plan. 

Comment: One commentor requested 

an increase in its allocation to the 

median level of the allocations. 

Response: Western considered the 

size of the applicants’ loads when it 

made the allocations according to the 

allocation criteria set forth in the 

Marketing Plan. Because not all 

applicants’ loads are the same size, the 

allocations were also not the same size. 

Comment: Two commentors asked 

Western to clarify the criteria it used in 

determining the allocations from the 

2015 Resource Pool. 

Response: Under the Marketing Plan, 

Western allocated power to the 

applicants that met the eligibility 

criteria set forth in the Marketing Plan. 

Western then applied the allocation 

criteria to all applicants receiving an 

allocation. The eligibility criteria and 

allocation criteria are discussed in the 

Marketing Plan and the Call for 

Applications. 

Final 2015 Resource Pool Allocations 

The final 2015 Resource Pool allottees 

are listed below. The allocations are 

expressed as percentages of the Base 

Resource (BR) with an estimated 

megawatthour (MWh) amount of each 

allocation. The estimated MWh for each 

allocation assumes an estimated average 

annual BR of 3,342,000 MWh and are 

rounded to the nearest MWh. The actual 

amount of BR a customer will receive 

will vary hourly, daily, monthly, and 

annually depending on hydrology and 

other constraints that may govern the 

CVP operations. The final allocations 

are as follows:

Contracting Process 

After the effective date of this notice, 

Western will begin the contracting 

process with allottees who are not 

currently customers. Allottees must 

execute and return without modification 

Western’s electric service contract to 

purchase the BR within 6 months of the 

contract offer, unless otherwise agreed 

to in writing by Western. Western 

reserves the right to withdraw and 

reallocate any power if an allottee does 

not execute the electric service contract 

within the 6-month period. The date of 

initial service under these contracts is 

January 1, 2015, and these contracts will 

remain in effect until midnight of 

December 31, 2024. Existing customers 

who received power allocations from 

the 2015 Resource Pool will receive a 

revised Exhibit A to their BR contracts 

increasing their percentage of the BR. 

If requested, Western will work with 

customers to develop a custom product 

to meet their needs. Custom products 

are described in the Marketing Plan and 

are offered under contracts separate 

from the BR. 

In the event there is any unallocated 

power after this process, Western 

reserves the right to reallocate such 

power according to the eligibility and 

allocation criteria set forth in the 

Marketing Plan. Entities who have 

submitted an application pursuant to 

this process need not re-submit an 

application if they wish to be 

considered. Western will contact such 

eligible entities. 

Authorities 

The Marketing Plan, published in the 

Federal Register (64 FR 34417) on June 

25, 1999, was established pursuant to 

the Department of Energy Organization 

Act (42 U.S.C. 7101–7352); the
