Common use of Current Actions Clause in Contracts

Current Actions. The EIA proposes the following changes: The EIA proposes the following changes to the form: • Eliminate Schedule 2, Capacity for Existing Generators in Reporting Year, as this information will be subsumed in Schedule 3. • Modify Schedule 3. Historical and Projected Demand and Capacity. The categories will explain the differences between net capacity reported to EIA by its respondents on the Form EIA–860 and the Planned Capacity Resource data reported by the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) on Schedule 3, Reconciliation between Total Generation Regional Capacity and Planned Regional Capacity Resources (summer, winter). It is proposed that reporting on Form EIA–411 become mandatory for all electric generators who are connected to the electricity grid. Over time, as utilities have sold their generating assets, the Form EIA–411 submission has become less inclusive of the entire electric power industry. Mandatory collection authority for Form EIA–411 is necessary for EIA to collect the comprehensive information needed for public and private analysts to accurately monitor the current status and trends of the electric power industry, as well as to evaluate the future of the industry. This change in the reporting obligation for the EIA–411 is consistent with NERC’s data program requirements because membership in NERC is now mandatory and data filing requirements by its members are also mandatory. It is proposed to reduce the due date for the form from 40 to 30 calendar days after the end of the reporting month to aid in validating the data against other survey data and to release the data to the public sooner. Schedule 1. Part C. Sales to Ultimate Customers, Delivery Only Service Additional requirement to provide the names of the energy service providers for whom distributors deliver electricity. In addition to the information previously reported to EIA on the forms being superseded by the EIA–923, EIA proposes to collect the following additional items: Schedule 2. Plant-Level • Commodity cost (only for coal and natural gas) for the quantity of fuel receipts. • Mercury content for the quality of fuel received (only for coal). • Primary and secondary mode of transportation (only for coal and natural gas). • Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) identification number (for coal mine type and location). • Also, all fossil fueled plants, including those which report to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) on the FERC Form 423 and with a capacity of 1 megawatt and greater, would now file this information. Schedule 3. Part A—Boiler-Level Consumption by energy source and heat content for plants with steam turbines of 10 megawatts or greater capacity that burn fossil or organic fuels (excluding steam turbines whose source of steam is from nuclear, geothermal or solar resources). Annual submitters would be required to provide 12 individual months worth of information. (Note: All other respondents would continue to provide prime mover level data on Schedule 4B.) Schedule 5. Part A—Prime Mover-Level Net and gross generation for all steam- electric plants; gross generation for combined heat and power plants; and consumption by fuel type and heat content for plants with steam turbines of 10 megawatts or greater capacity that burn fossil or organic fuel (excluding steam turbines whose source of steam is from nuclear, geothermal or solar resources). (Note: All other respondents would continue to provide prime mover level data on Schedule 5B.) Schedule 7. Plant-Level for Annual Data Sources and Disposition proposes to collect revenues associated with the resale of electricity. Schedule 8. Annual Environmental Information • Part A. Byproduct Disposition. • Part B. Financial Information. • Part C. Nitrogen Oxide Emission Controls. • Part D. Cooling System Information. • Part E. Flue Gas Particulate Collection Information. • Part F. Flue Gas Desulfurization Unit Information. The EIA proposes to collect the following additional items:
