SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: By 

Delegation Order No. 00–037.00A, 

effective October 25, 2013, the Secretary 

of Energy delegated: (1) The authority to 

develop power and transmission rates to 

Western’s Administrator; (2) the 

authority to confirm, approve, and place 

such rates into effect on an interim basis 

to the Deputy Secretary of Energy; and 

(3) the authority to confirm, approve, 

and place into effect on a final basis, to 

remand, or to disapprove such rates to 

the Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission. 

The existing rate schedules consist of 

separate rates for firm and non-firm 

transmission rates and ancillary services 

rates for the transmission facilities in 

the P–SMBP—ED, which are integrated 

with transmission facilities of Basin 

Electric Power Cooperative and 

Heartland Consumers Power District 

such that transmission services are 

provided over an Integrated System (IS). 

The rates are sometimes referred to as IS 

Rates. Rate Schedules UGP–NT1, UGP– 

FPT1, UGP–NFPT1, UGP–AS1, UGP– 

AS2, UGP–AS3, UGP–AS4, UGP–AS5, 

UGP–AS6, UGP–AS7 and UGP–TSP1 

were approved under Rate Order Nos. 

WAPA–144 and WAPA–148 1 for a 5- 

year period beginning on January 1, 

2010, and ending December 31, 2014. 

The existing transmission and 

ancillary services rates provide adequate 

revenue to pay all annual costs, 

including interest expense, and to repay 

investment within the allowable period. 

The rates are calculated annually to 

ensure repayment of the project within 

the cost recovery criteria set forth in 

DOE Order RA 6120.2. 

Western is proposing no change at 

this time to the rate formulas. Since no 

changes are anticipated to the formulas 

and the existing formulary rates provide 

sufficient revenue to recover all 

appropriate costs, Western proposes to 

extend the current rate schedules 

through December 31, 2016, pursuant to 

10 CFR 903.23(a). 

All documents made or kept by 

Western for developing the proposed 

extension for the rate schedules are 

available for inspection and copying at 

the Upper Great Plains Region, Western 

Area Power Administration, 2900 4th 

Avenue North, Billings, MT 59101– 

1266. These documents are also 

available on Western’s Web site at: 

http://www.wapa.gov/ugp/rates/

default.htm. 

After review of public comments, 

Western will take further action on the 

proposed extension of formulary rates 

consistent with 10 CFR part 903. 

Dated: July 23, 2014.

Administrator.

the technical basis for Agency positions

the Federal Advisory Committee Act 

(FACA), 5 U.S.C., App. 2. The SAB will

Procedures for Providing Public Input: 

Public comment for consideration by 

EPA’s federal advisory committees and 

panels has a different purpose from 

public comment provided to EPA 

program offices. Therefore, the process 

for submitting comments to a federal 

advisory committee is different from the 

process used to submit comments to an 

EPA program office. Federal advisory 

committees and panels, including 

scientific advisory committees, provide 

independent advice to the EPA. 

Interested members of the public may 

submit relevant information on the topic 

of this advisory activity, and/or the 

group conducting the activity, for the 

SAB to consider during the advisory 

process. Input from the public to the 

SAB will have the most impact if it 

provides specific scientific or technical 

information or analysis for SAB 

committees and panels to consider or if 

it relates to the clarity or accuracy of the 

technical information. Members of the 

public wishing to provide comment 

should contact the DFO directly. Oral 

Statements: In general, individuals or 

groups requesting an oral presentation 

on a public teleconference will be 

limited to three minutes and an oral 

presentation at the face-to-face meeting 

will be limited to five minutes. 

Interested parties wishing to provide 

comments should contact Mr. Aaron 

Yeow (preferably via email) at the 

contact information noted above by 

September 23, 2014 to be placed on the 

list of public speakers for the 

teleconference and by November 11, 

2014 to be placed on the list of public 

speakers for the face-to-face meeting. 

Written Statements: Written statements 

will be accepted throughout the 

advisory process; however, for timely 

consideration by Committee/Panel 

members, statements should be 

supplied to the DFO via email at the 

contact information noted above by 

September 23, 2014, for the 

teleconference and by November 11, 

2014, for the face-to-face meeting. 

Written statements should be supplied 

in one of the following electronic 

formats: Adobe Acrobat PDF, MS Word, 

MS PowerPoint, or Rich Text files in 

IBM–PC/Windows 98/2000/XP format. 

It is the SAB Staff Office general policy 

to post written comments on the Web 

page for the advisory meeting or 

teleconference. Submitters are requested 

to provide an unsigned version of each 

document because the SAB Staff Office 

does not publish documents with 

signatures on its Web sites. Members of 

the public should be aware that their 

personal contact information, if 

included in any written comments, may 

be posted to the SAB Web site. 

Copyrighted material will not be posted 

without explicit permission of the 

copyright holder. 

Accessibility: For information on 

access or services for individuals with 

disabilities, please contact Mr. Aaron 

Yeow at (202) 564–2050 or yeow.aaron@

epa.gov. To request accommodation of a 

disability, please contact Mr. Yeow 

preferably at least ten days prior to the 

meeting to give EPA as much time as 

possible to process your request.
