Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

18 CFR Part 35 

[Docket No. RM10–23–000] 

Transmission Planning and Cost 

Allocation by Transmission Owning 

and Operating Public Utilities 

September 29, 2010. 

AGENCY: Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission, DOE. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking; 

request for reply comments. 

SUMMARY: On June 17, 2010, the 

Commission issued a Notice of 

proposed rulemaking (75 FR 37884) 

proposing to amend the transmission 

planning and cost allocation 

requirements established in Order No. 

890 to ensure that Commissionjurisdictional services are provided on a 

basis that is just, reasonable and not 

unduly discriminatory or preferential. 

With respect to transmission planning, 

the proposed rule would provide that 

local and regional transmission 

planning processes account for 

transmission needs driven by public 

policy requirements established by state 

or federal laws or regulations; improve 

coordination between neighboring 

transmission planning regions with 

respect to interregional facilities; and 

remove from Commission-approved 

tariffs or agreements a right of first 

refusal created by those documents that 

provides an incumbent transmission 

provider with an undue advantage over 

a nonincumbent transmission 

developer. Neither incumbent nor 

nonincumbent transmission facility 

developers should, as a result of a 

Commission-approved tariff or 

agreement, receive different treatment in 

a regional transmission planning 

process. Further, both should share 

similar benefits and obligations 

commensurate with that participation, 

including the right, consistent with state 

or local laws or regulations, to construct 

and own a facility that it sponsors in a 

regional transmission planning process 

and that is selected for inclusion in the 

regional transmission plan. With respect 

to cost allocation, the proposed rule 

would establish a closer link between 

transmission planning processes and 

cost allocation and would require cost 

allocation methods for intraregional and 

interregional transmission facilities to 

satisfy newly established cost allocation 

principles. The Commission is 

providing interested persons an 

opportunity to file reply comments on 

the proposed rule. 

DATES: Reply comments to the proposed 

rule published June 30, 2010 (75 FR 

37884) are due November 12, 2010.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION 

AGENCY 

40 CFR Part 52 

[EPA–R04–OAR–2009–0041–200902; FRL– 

9211–4] 

Approval and Promulgation of 

Implementation Plans; State of 

Mississippi: Prevention of Significant 

Deterioration Rules: Nitrogen Oxide as 

a Precursor to Ozone 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve 

a portion of a revision to the Mississippi 

State Implementation Plan (SIP), 

submitted by the Mississippi 

Department of Environmental Quality 

(MDEQ), to EPA on November 28, 2007. 

The revision modifies Mississippi’s 

prevention of significant deterioration 

(PSD) permitting regulations in the SIP 

to address permit requirements 

promulgated in the 1997 8–Hour Ozone 

National Ambient Air Quality Standards 

(NAAQS) Implementation Rule-Phase II 

(hereafter referred to as the ‘‘Ozone 

Implementation New Source Review 

(NSR) Update’’). The Ozone 

Implementation NSR Update revised 

permit requirements relating to the 

implementation of the 1997 8-hour 

ozone NAAQS specifically 

incorporating nitrogen oxides (NOX) as 

a precursor to ozone. Specifically, this 

SIP revision incorporates by reference 

the Ozone Implementation NSR Update 

federal regulations into the Mississippi 

SIP through Air Pollution Control 

Section 5 (APC–S–5) ‘‘Regulations for 

the Prevention of Significant 

Deterioration of Air Quality.’’ EPA’s 

approval of Mississippi’s incorporation 

by reference of the Ozone 

Implementation NSR Update federal 

regulations, including provisions to 

recognize NOX as an ozone precursor, 

into the Mississippi SIP, is based on 

EPA’s determination that Mississippi’s 

revision related to these provisions 

complies with current Federal 

requirements and section 110 of the 

Clean Air Act (CAA). 

EPA is not taking action on two 

portions of Mississippi’s November 28, 

2007 submittal. The first is regarding 

Mississippi’s incorporation by reference 

of provisions promulgated by EPA on 

May 1, 2007, which exclude from the 

NSR major source permitting 

requirements ‘‘chemical process plants’’ 

that produce ethanol through a natural 

fermentation process (hereafter referred 

to as the ‘‘Ethanol Rule’’). See 72 FR 

24060. EPA may consider further action
