The tariff language in section
Attachment J. III.C.1 outlines the process for a customer to request a
waiver from the Safe Harbor Limits. It specifically states “The
affected Transmission Customer may request a waiver regarding the
costs in excess of the Safe Harbor Cost Limit within 15 days of such
notice form the Transmission Provider.”
Reason for Revision
The difficulty is determining when a customer is considered to have
been provided “notice.” Companies are concerned that they must
submit the request at the FIRST notice which is often a very early
stage of the study and based upon results which are unlikely to
represent the final study outcome.
