Rule 007 – Amendments
The AUC announced proposed changes to Rule 007: Applications for Power Plants, Substations, Transmission Lines, Industrial System Designations and Hydro Developments to reflect:
(a) Updates for environmental requirements, including environmental checklists for transmission line and substation projects;
(b) Streamlined application requirements for needs identification documents; and
(c) Elimination of applications for approval of certain isolated generating units.
The AUC noted that these requirements were most recently addressed in Bulletin 2014-03 and Bulletin 2015-12. Interested parties may provide final submissions by November 16, 2015.
