Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 100 / Wednesday, May 27, 2009 / Notices 25235 

Year 2011/2012 and the third 

Incremental Auction (January 4–8, 2010) 

for Delivery Year 2010/2011 and asks 

the Commission to take action as 

necessary to correct this condition, if it 

agrees with the Market Monitor’s views 

regarding non-competitive market 

outcomes. 

PJM filed a responsive letter on April 

29, 2009, containing correspondence 

between PJM and the Market Monitor. 

In this correspondence, PJM stated that, 

in its view, an expedited tariff change is 

not necessary, and that it believes that 

the prices produced by use of the ACR 

values accepted in the March 26 Order 

will lead to rates that are within the 

range of reasonable variation. PJM also 

stated that the RPM market design does 

not anticipate the default ACR values 

changing for each Delivery Year, and 

recommends that rather than seeking a 

tariff change on an emergency basis, 

PJM’s stakeholders should consider this 

issue and, if they so choose, present this 

issue to the Commission in an orderly 

fashion. Therefore, while indicating that 

ACR changes are not feasible or 

advisable for the June 2009 Incremental 

Auction, PJM commits to add the topic 

of default ACR values to the agenda for 

the Capacity Markets Evolution 

Committee as an item to be discussed 

and resolved by stakeholders by 

September 1, 2009.
