Record of Decision

AGENCY: Bonneville Power Administration (BPA), Department of Energy 
(DOE).

ACTION: Record of decision (ROD) on non-federal participation capacity 
ownership.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The ROD documents the Administrator's decision to proceed with 
Capacity Ownership for Non-Federal parties. Capacity Ownership allows 
non-Federal utilities to collectively purchase 725 megawatts (MW) of 
contract rights to use BPA's share of alternating current (AC) Intertie 
capacity, which was increased upon completion of the Third AC Intertie 
transmission project. The Third AC Intertie project increased Pacific 
Northwest/Pacific Southwest AC Intertie transmission capacity by 1600 
MW bringing the total capacity to 4800 MW, north to south. BPA owns 
and/or controls about 1350 MW of this increased capacity.
