52808, on August 10, 1994, tendered for filing pursuant to Sec. 35.12
of the Regulations under the Federal Power Act the initial rate
schedules in the form of Facilities Schedule No. 3, relating to Walcott
Substation, dated July 12, 1994, and Facilities Schedule No. 4,
relating to Blue Grass REC, dated July 12, 1994, to Service Schedule C
to the Interconnection Agreement dated June 13, 1983, between Iowa-
Illinois and Central Iowa Power Cooperative (CIPCO).
Iowa-Illinois states that the Facilities Schedules are a part of a
major economic development effort by government and business leaders in
the state of Iowa to locate a new $360 million steel mill to be owned
and operated by IPSCO, Inc. (IPSCO) within the state. As a part of the
effort, the state of Iowa enacted new legislation to provide economic
incentives to IPSCO to locate the mill in Muscatine County, Iowa. The
construction of the mill in Iowa is expected to provide approximately
350 additional jobs by 1997 and an increase in state and local tax
revenues of approximately $143 million.
CIPCO will provide electric energy to the steel mill. However, to
deliver the electric energy to the steel mill, utilization of Iowa-
Illinois' transmission facilities and the construction of new
transmission facilities by CIPCO will be required. The Facilities
Schedules provide for the utilization, construction and modification of
these facilities.
CIPCO plans to serve IPSCO's steel mill through two transmission
sources utilizing Iowa-Illinois' transmission facilities. One source
will require CIPCO to convert an existing 69 kV line between Iowa-
Illinois' Substation 56 and CIPCO's Fair Station to 161 kV, disconnect
the line at Fair Station and connect it to the IPSCO Substation. The
other source will require CIPCO to construct a new 345 kV transmission
line extending from the new Walcott Substation and terminating at the
IPSCO Substation adjacent to the steel mill. Under Facilities Schedule
No. 3, CIPCO's new line will interconnect at the Walcott Substation
with Iowa-Illinois's 345 kV transmission line which extends from Hills
Substation to Substation 56. CIPCO will own Walcott Substation and
Iowa-Illinois will operate and maintain the substation at CIPCO's
expense.
The portion of the transmission service which uses the
interconnection at Substation 56 will be provided pursuant to the
Agreement for Interconnection of Transmission Facilities dated March 4,
1963 entered into by Iowa-Illinois, Iowa Electric Light and Power
Company (predecessor in interest to IES Utilities Inc.) and Eastern
Iowa Light and Power Cooperative (predecessor in interest to CIPCO).
The remaining transmission service will be provided as required by
Facilities Schedule No. 3.
Under Facilities Schedule No. 4, Iowa-Illinois will supply all
energy required at CIPCO's Blue Grass REC Substation to the Point of
Connection between CIPCO and Iowa-Illinois. CIPCO will deliver an
equivalent amount of energy including losses on a scheduled basis to
Iowa-Illinois at the Point of Connection.
The Facilities Schedules provide that they will be effective upon
their acceptance for filing by the Commission. Iowa-Illinois requests
the Commission to accept the Facilities Schedules for filing by
November 30, 1994.
Copies of the filing were served upon the Illinois Commerce
Commission, the Iowa Utilities Board and CIPCO.
Comment date: August 26, 1994, in accordance with Standard
