DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Western Area Power Administration 

Loveland Area Projects, Western Area 

Colorado Missouri Balancing 

Authority, and Colorado River Storage 

Project—Rate Order No. WAPA–214 

AGENCY: Western Area Power 

Administration, DOE. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed extension of

(RM) of the Western Area Power 

Administration (WAPA) proposes to 

extend existing formula rates (without 

any changes) for the Loveland Area 

Projects (LAP), the Western Area 

Colorado Missouri Balancing Authority 

(WACM), and the Colorado River 

Storage Project (CRSP) through 

September 30, 2026. The existing rates 

RM proposes to extend are: L–NT1 

(network), L–FPT1 (firm point-topoint), L–NFPT1 (non-firm point-topoint), L–NFJDT (joint dispatch 

transmission), L–UU1 (unreserved use), 

L–AS1 (scheduling and dispatch), L– 

AS2 (reactive supply and voltage 

control (VAR) support), L–AS3 

(regulation), L–AS4 (energy imbalance), 

L–AS5 (spinning reserves), L–AS6 

(supplemental reserves), L–AS7 

(balancing authority (BA) real power 

losses), and L–AS9 (generator 

imbalance). The existing rates expire on 

September 30, 2024. 

DATES: A consultation and comment 

period will begin February 7, 2024, and 

end March 8, 2024. RM will accept 

written comments at any time during 

the consultation and comment period. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments and 

requests to be informed of Federal 

Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) 

actions concerning the proposed 

extension submitted by WAPA to FERC 

for approval should be sent to: Barton V. 

Barnhart, Regional Manager, Rocky 

Mountain Region, Western Area Power 

Administration, 5555 East Crossroads 

Boulevard, Loveland, CO 80538–8986, 

or email: LAPtransadj@wapa.gov. RM 

will post information about the 

proposed formula rate extension and 

written comments received to its 

website at: www.wapa.gov/2025- 

transmission-and-ancillary-servicesrate-extension. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Sheila D. Cook, Rates Manager, Rocky 

Mountain Region, Western Area Power 

Administration, 5555 East Crossroads 

Boulevard, Loveland, CO 80538–8986, 

(970) 685–9562 or email: LAPtransadj@

wapa.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 

9, 2017, FERC approved and confirmed 

LAP transmission and LAP, WACM, and 

CRSP ancillary services formula rates 

under Rate Schedules L–NT1, L–FPT1, 

L–NFPT1, L–UU1, L–AS1, L–AS2, L– 

AS3, L–AS4, L–AS5, L–AS6, L–AS7, 

and L–AS9 under Rate Order No. 

WAPA–174 for a 5-year period through 

September 30, 2021.1

On December 29, 2020, WAPA’s 

Administrator approved rates for shortterm sales for RM to use under the 

Western Energy Imbalance Service 

(WEIS) Market, which superseded rate 

schedules L–AS4, L–AS9, and L–AS7 

(BA real power losses), for the 8-month 

period of February 1, 2021, through 

September 30, 2021. 

On March 10, 2022, FERC confirmed 

and approved Rate Order No. WAPA– 

196 extending Rate Schedules L–NT1, 

L–FPT1, L–NFPT1, L–UU1, L–AS1, L– 

AS2, L–AS3, L–AS5, and L–AS6 

through September 30, 2024, on a final 

basis.2

On March 29, 2022, FERC confirmed 

and approved Rate Order No. WAPA– 

197, putting long-term rates in place for 

RM to use under the WEIS Market under 

Rate Schedules L–AS4, L–AS9, L–AS7, 

and L–NFJDT through September 30, 

2024, on a final basis.3

In accordance with 10 CFR 903.23(a),4

RM is proposing to extend the existing 

formula rates under Rate Schedules L– 

NT1, L–FPT1, L–NFPT1, L–NFJDT, L– 

UU1, L–AS1, L–AS2, L–AS3, L–AS4, L– 

AS5, L–AS6, L–AS7, and L–AS9 for the 

period of October 1, 2024, through 

September 30, 2026. The existing 

formula rates are viewable on WAPA’s 

website at: www.wapa.gov/about-wapa/ 

regions/rm/rm-rates/rate-schedules. The 

existing formula rates provide sufficient 

revenue to pay all annual costs, 

including interest expense, and repay 

investment within the allowable period 

consistent with the cost recovery criteria 

set forth in Department of Energy (DOE) 

Order RA 6120.2. 

On April 28, 2023, WAPA published 

a Federal Register notice titled 

‘‘Recommendation for Western Area 

Power Administration’s Rocky 

Mountain Region and Colorado River 

Storage Project Management Center to 

Pursue Final Negotiations Regarding 

Membership in the Southwest Power 

Pool Regional Transmission 

Organization and for the Upper Great 

Plains Region to Expand Its 

Participation’’.5 On September 8, 2023, 

WAPA’s Administrator authorized staff 

to move forward with the 

recommendation to pursue final 

negotiations for membership and 

expanded participation in the 

Southwest Power Pool Regional 

Transmission Organization (SPP RTO). 

RM and CRSP Management Center’s 

(MC) membership in the SPP RTO 

would have significant impacts on the 

above rate methodologies. Extending the 

existing rates for two years would allow 

RM and CRSP MC time to evaluate rate 

methodologies and then conduct major 

rate adjustment processes to put new 

rates in place that would become 

effective upon RM and CRSP MC joining
