NDPSC issues Certificates to transmission developers pursuant to [[North Dakota – N.D. Century Code §§ 49-22 et seq., Energy Conversion and Transmission Facility Siting Act|N.D. Century Code § 49-22]].
==8-ND-a.8 – Does NDPSC Grant the Waiver Request==
After conducting the hearing, if necessary, NDPSC makes a waiver determination. NDPSC grants the waiver if it finds that either, there is an existing emergency, or if the proposed facility will have minimal adverse effect. If a waiver is granted, NDPSC may issue a Certificate with any conditions as NDPSC may require. [[North Dakota – N.D. Century Code §§ 49-22 et seq., Energy Conversion and Transmission Facility Siting Act|N.D.C.C. § 49-22-07.2]]. The order issued also contains findings that support NDPSC’s decision. If the request is granted, the order also specifically describes the procedures and time schedules that are waived. [[North Dakota – N.D. Admin. Code §§ 69-06-06 et seq., Waiver of Procedures and Time Schedules|N.D.A.C. § 69-06-06-02]].
