{"abstract":"Bonneville is holding a proceeding pursuant to Section 7(i) of the Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning and Conservation Act (Northwest Power Act) to establish power and transmission rates for FY 2020-2021. Bonneville has designated this proceeding Docket No. BP-20. The Northwest Power Act provides that Bonneville must establish, and periodically review and revise, its power and transmission rates so that they recover, in accordance with sound business principles, the costs associated with the acquisition, conservation, and transmission of electric power, including amortization of the Federal investment in the Federal Columbia River Power System (FCRPS) over a reasonable number of years, and Bonneville's other costs and expenses. For transmission rates only, the Northwest Power Act requires that the costs of the Federal transmission system be equitably allocated between Federal and non-Federal power utilizing the system. The Northwest Power Act requires that Bonneville's rates be established based on the record of a formal hearing. By this notice, Bonneville announces the commencement of a power and transmission rate adjustment proceeding for power, transmission, and ancillary and control area services rates to be effective on October 1, 2019.","action":"Notice of FY 2020-2021 proposed power and transmission rate adjustments.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY","name":"Energy Department","id":136,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/energy-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/136","parent_id":null,"slug":"energy-department"},{"raw_name":"Bonneville Power Administration","name":"Bonneville Power Administration","id":40,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/bonneville-power-administration","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/40","parent_id":136,"slug":"bonneville-power-administration"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2018/12/06/2018-26422.html","cfr_references":[],"citation":"83 FR 62849","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Prehearing Conference: The BP-20 proceeding begins with a prehearing conference at 9:00 a.m. on Friday, December 7, 2018, in the Bonneville Rates Hearing Room, 1201 NE Lloyd Boulevard, Suite 200, Portland, Oregon 97232.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["BPA File No.: BP-20"],"dockets":[],"document_number":"2018-26422","effective_on":null,"end_page":62855,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"explanation":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2018/12/06/2018-26422.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2018/12/06/2018-26422/fiscal-year-fy-2020-2021-proposed-power-and-transmission-rate-adjustments-public-hearing-and","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/2018-26422?publication_date=2018-12-06","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2018-12-06/2018-26422/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":7,"page_views":{"count":309,"last_updated":"2026-04-04 18:15:03 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2018-12-06/pdf/2018-26422.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2018-26422.pdf?1543931131","publication_date":"2018-12-06","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2018/12/06/2018-26422.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"supporting_documents":[],"comments_url":"https://www.regulations.gov/docketBrowser?rpp=50&so=DESC&sb=postedDate&po=0&dct=PS&D=BPA_FRDOC_0001","supporting_documents_count":0,"docket_id":"BPA_FRDOC_0001","regulation_id_number":null,"title":"Recently Posted BPA Rules and Notices.","checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2018-12-26T11:00:25Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":62849,"subtype":null,"title":"Fiscal Year (FY) 2020-2021 Proposed Power and Transmission Rate Adjustments Public Hearing and Opportunities for Public Review and Comment","toc_doc":"Proposed Power and Transmission Rate Adjustments Public Hearing Fiscal Year (FY) 2020-2021: Opportunities for Public Review and Comment","toc_subject":null,"topics":[],"type":"Notice","volume":83}
