SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

Pursuant to sections 102(c) and 301(d)

of PURPA, Pub. L. 95–617, 92 Stat. 3117

et seq. (16 U.S.C. 2601 et seq.,

hereinafter referred to as the Act) the

Department of Energy (DOE) is required

to publish a list of utilities to which

Titles I and III of PURPA apply in 1995.

State regulatory authorities are

required by the Act to notify the

Secretary of Energy as to their

ratemaking authority over the listed

utilities. The inclusion or exclusion of

any utility on or from the list does not

affect the legal obligations of such

utility or the responsible authority

under the Act.

The term ‘‘State regulatory authority’’

means any State, including the District

of Columbia and Puerto Rico, or a

political subdivision thereof, and any

agency or instrumentality, which has

authority to fix, modify, approve, or

disapprove rates with respect to the sale

of electric energy or natural gas by any

utility (other than such State agency). In

the case of a utility for which the

Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) has

ratemaking authority, the term ‘‘State

regulatory authority’’ means the TVA.

Title I of PURPA sets forth ratemaking

and regulatory policy standards with

respect to electric utilities. Section

102(c) of Title I requires the Secretary of

Energy to publish a list, before the

beginning of each calendar year,

identifying each electric utility to which

Title I applies during such calendar

year. An electric utility is defined as any

person, State agency, or Federal agency

that sells electric energy. An electric

utility is covered by Title I for any

calendar year if it had total sales of

electric energy, for purposes other than

resale, in excess of 500 million kilowatt-
