Order 693 Compliance
LTTIWG Conference Call

Order 693 Paragraph 1051

• The Commission directs the ERO, through the
  Reliability Standard development process, to
  modify FAC-012-1 and any other appropriate
  Reliability Standards to assure consistency in
  the determination of TTC/TFC for services
  provided under the pro forma OATT, and requires
  that those processes be the same as those used in
  operation and planning for native load and
  reliability assessment studies. Changes to the
  process of calculating TTC are appropriate if
  implementation is coordinated with revisions to
  the other applicable operating or planning
  standards. We acknowledge that reliability
  regions have historically calculated transfer
  capability using different approaches, and we
  agree that regional differences should be
  respected.336 However, as already discussed above
  regarding ATC, TTC requirements will be
  determined in the ERO Reliability Standards
  development process, and any request for a
  regional difference from the Reliability
  Standards must take place through the ERO
  process.
• 336 For example, WECC has a documented open
  process for establishing TTC for the Western
  Interconnection.

Ralph Honeycutt Questions

1. What changes or modifications has the ICT
   contemplated to comply with paragraph 1051 of
   Order 693, which requires consistency in the
   determination of TTC/TFC for services provided
   under the pro-forma OATT, and requires that those
   processes be the same as those used in operation
   and planning for native load and reliability
   assessment studies.? emphasis added

Ralph Honeycutt Questions

1. I do not recall this specific paragraph being
   specifically discussed as to what changes the ICT
   and Entergy are considering.  Perhaps this issue
   needs to be discussed at the next LTTIWG/NTTIWG
   meeting.  It seems that any changes may need to
   be reflected in the tariff.

ICT / Entergy Response
We do not believe any changes currently are
required.  However, we are awaiting NERC's
resolution of this requirement in FAC-012-1 and
related standards, at which point Entergy and the
ICT will review the current Entergy processes to
assure consistency with the requirements that are
put in place.
