Subject: NTTG Order 1000 Public Stakeholder Meeting
NTTG Stakeholders and Interested Parties:
The Northern Tier Transmission Group (NTTG) will conduct a public stakeholder meeting via
phone and web conference on September 18th starting at 1:00 p.m. (PPT). Updated
webinar/conference call information is attached and posted to the NTTG website Click Here.
In preparation for this call, NTTG will post the latest draft versions of an Order 1000-compliant
Attachment K and the Planning and Cost Allocation Practices document on the NTTG website by
Thursday, September 13th. A second notice with a link to the materials will be distributed once
materials are posted.
Revisions to these documents are largely due to reorganization to improve readability, and
incorporating additional details where required by Order 1000. With two exceptions, (i) the
proposal for reevaluation of projects and (ii) the approach and metrics for evaluating economic
benefits, the processes in these documents remain largely unchanged and the details have
been reviewed in prior stakeholder meetings. In order to focus on the substantive changes, the
format for this call will be to walk through the changes and proposals for (i) and (ii) above and
then open the floor to a Q/A session. We are hoping that this format will be more efficient
than conducting a page turn of each of the documents.
Please forward this notice to any parties who may be interested in participating. Stakeholder
input is important to Northern Tier and we hope that you will be able to participate. Feel free
to contact me at the phone or email address below if you have any questions.
Thank you all in advance.
