Bulletin – Rule 007 Revisions
The AUC released this bulletin as a follow-up to Bulletin 2015-14 in which the AUC identified a need to work with stakeholders to identify improvements and revisions to Rule 007: Applications for Power Plants, Substations, Transmision Lines, Industrial System Designations and Hydro Developments (“Rule 7”) to reflect:
(a) Updates for environmental requirements, including checklists for transmission line and substations projects;
(b) Streamlined requirements for needs identification documents; and
(c) Elimination of applications for approval of certain isolated generating units.
After taking into account stakeholder comments, the AUC approved changes to Rule 7. These changes became effective on February 1, 2016.
