DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Western Area Power Administration 

Pick-Sloan Missouri Basin Program— 

Eastern Division-Rate Order No. 

WAPA–170 

AGENCY: Western Area Power 

Administration, DOE. 

ACTION: Notice of Proposed 

Transmission and Ancillary Services 

Formula Rates. 

SUMMARY: The Western Area Power 

Administration (Western), a power 

marketing administration within the 

Department of Energy (DOE), is 

proposing new formula transmission 

and ancillary services rates for the PickSloan Missouri Basin Program—Eastern 

Division (P–SMBP—ED). The proposed 

formula rates would become effective 

October 1, 2015, and remain in effect 

until September 30, 2020, or until 

Western changes the formula rates 

through another public rate process 

pursuant to 10 CFR part 903, whichever 

is sooner. Western’s Upper Great Plains 

Region (Western-UGP) has joined the 

Southwest Power Pool (SPP) Regional 

Transmission Organization (RTO) 

contingent upon Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (FERC) 

approval of Western-UGP’s negotiated 

provisions in the SPP Membership 

Agreement, Bylaws, and Tariff (SPP 

Governing Documents). Transmission 

and ancillary services will be provided 

over Western-UGP facilities under the 

SPP Open Access Transmission Tariff 

(Tariff) by SPP as the transmission 

service provider upon Western-UGP 

transferring functional control to SPP. 

Western-UGP needs to adopt new 

formula rates for these transmission and 

ancillary services so Western-UGP’s 

costs can be recovered under the SPP 

Tariff. These formula rates will provide 

Western sufficient revenue to pay all 

annual costs, including interest 

expenses, and repay required 

investments within the allowable
