Vermont Certificate of Public Good (7-VT-c)
In Vermont, a person (developer) may need a Certificate of Public Good (CPG), from the Vermont Public Service Board (Board) for transmission line extension projects, interconnected group net-metered hydroelectric power systems, and projects that sell retail electricity within Vermont. 30 V.S.A. § 248 et seq.
The Board will conduct a CPG review pursuant to 30 V.S.A. § 248 et seq. The Board must find that the project promotes the general good of the state in order to grant a CPG. 30 V.S.A. § 248 et seq.
7-VT-c.1 to 7-VT-c.2 — Will the Project Require a FERC License or Exemption?
The developer may not need to obtain a Certificate of Public Good (CPG) from the Vermont Public Service Board (Board) if the project requires a Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) license or exemption. Draft Guide to Filing a Petition under Section 248, at 1. Contact the Vermont Department of Public Service (Department) to determine if the project requires a CPG. FERC licensed or exempted hydroelectric facilities may still need a CPG for a transmission line extension project, interconnected group net-metered hydroelectric power systems, and project’s that sell retail electricity within Vermont.
7-VT-c.3 to 7-VT-c.4 — Does the Project Require an Amendment to an Existing Certificate of Public Good?
The developer should contact the Planning and Energy Resources Division of the Vermont Department of Public Service for details on how to amend a previously issued CPG for an existing hydroelectric project. For example, certain qualified facilities with Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act (PURPA) contracts that are set to expire may petition to amend a current CPG to reflect a net-metered system.
7-VT-c.5 — Is the Project Net-Metered?
The developer must obtain a CPG pursuant to CVR 30-000-048 § 5.110 (B)-(C) if the project is a net-metered project. CVR 30-000-048 § 5.110 (B)-(C). If the project is a net-metered go to 7-VT-c.27.
7-VT-c.6 to 7-VT-c.7 — Submit Notice Letter to Affected Municipality and Regional Planning Commission
The developer must submit the proposed project plans, 45 days prior to filing a petition for a CPG, notifying the affected municipal and regional planning commissions and municipal legislative bodies of the developer’s intent to submit a CPG petition to the Board. 30 V.S.A. § 248(f); CVR 30-000-056 § 5.402 (A). However, if the proposed project consists solely of the relocation of transmission facilities, the developer may submit the notice letter at least 21 days prior to filing a petition for a CPG. CVR 30-000-056 § 5.402 (A); 30 V.S.A. § 248(g). The project plans must include plans for construction of the project in sufficient detail to understand the overall proposed project, including but not limited to:
Identification and analysis of aesthetic impact;
Project plans, in as much detail as the developer can reasonably provide (including schematic and diagram depicting proposed structures);
A description of how equipment and materials will be transported to the site; and
Plans which indicate the approximate location of all proposed new infrastructure (e.g., transmission, roads, etc.) relative to the existing conditions.
CVR 30-000-056 § 5.402 (A)(4).
For proposed transmission projects, the developer must also include an evaluation of alternatives to the proposed project and the reasons why those alternatives were rejected. CVR 30-000-056 § 5.402 (A)(4).
A reference to the Board’s Citizen’s Guide to the Vermont Public Service Board’s Section 248 Process available on the Board’s website;
