| Title: Revisions to Form, Procedures, and Criteria for Certification of Qualifying Facility Status for a Small Power Production or Cogeneration Facility | |
| Abstract: The Commission revised its regulations, which prior to the Final Rule provided the FERC Form No. 556, that is used in certification of qualifying status for an existing or a proposed small power production or cogeneration facility. The adopted revisions remove the contents of the Form No. 556 from the regulations, and, in their place, provide that an applicant seeking to certify qualifying facility (QF) status of a small power production or cogeneration facility must complete, and electronically file, the Form No. 556 that is in effect at the time of filing. The Commission reformatted the Form No. 556 to clarify the content of the form and to take advantage of newer technologies that will reduce both the filing burden for applicants and the processing burden for the Commission. The Commission also adopted an exemption, for generating facilities with net power production capacities of 1 MW or less, from the requirement that a generating facility, to be a QF, file either a notice of self-certification or an application for Commission certification, and codified the Commission's authority to waive the QF certification requirement for good cause. Finally, the Commission clarified and simplified certain sections of the regulations relating to certifying QF status. (Docket No. RM09-23-000). | |
