Tradução automática local · Idioma original da fonte
Resumo
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission is revising its regulations to expand delegations to the staff in the following areas: The Secretary would be authorized to toll the time for action on requests for rehearings and issue notices in compliance with section 206(b) of the Federal Power Act, as amended by the Regulatory Fairness Act; the Director of the Office of Electric Power Regulation would be authorized to take appropriate action on uncontested interim electric rate motions that would result in lower rates, pending Commission action on settlement agreements; and the General Counsel would be authorized to grant uncontested applications for exempt wholesale generator status that do not present unusual or interpretation issues and to act on uncontested motions to withdraw EWG applications. Because of increased workload, the Commission is taking these actions in the interest of administrative efficiency.
