3. Norton Energy Storage, L.L.C.

[Docket No. EL01-70-000]

    Take notice that on April 26, 2001, Norton Energy Storage, L.L.C. 
(NES) filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission a Petition 
for Declaratory Order pursuant to Section 385.207 of the Commission's 
Regulations, 18 CFR 385.207.
    NES requests that the Commission declare that transactions 
involving the delivery of electric energy to NES' Compressed Air Energy 
Storage (CAES) generating facility (the NES Facility) for storage 
through the compression of air into a cavern for subsequent release 
through turbine generators to produce electric energy or ancillary 
services for sale or exchange at wholesale in interstate commerce are 
exclusively subject to the Commission's jurisdiction under Section 201 
of the Federal Power Act, 16 U.S.C. Secs. 824-825r (the FPA).
    NES states that it is developing its CAES generating facility at 
the site of an abandoned limestone mine in the City of Norton, Summit 
County, Ohio, near Akron. NES represents that the NES Facility will 
eventually include 2,700 MW of capacity, to be constructed in 
individual increments of 300 MW. According to NES, the NES Facility 
will be the first compressed air energy storage project to be developed 
in North America as a merchant facility, and only the third CAES 
facility in the world. NES states that the NES Facility will employ an 
innovative technology that will allow NES to ``store'' electric energy 
produced in one period for delivery, resale and use during a later 
period, much as a pumped storage hydroelectric facility does.
    NES states that the NES Facility's customers (including traditional 
public utilities, merchant generators and power marketers) will deliver 
electric energy to the NES Facility from time to time. This electric 
energy will be ``stored'' by compressing air into a sealed underground 
storage area. NES will maintain the injected air at high pressure until 
its controlled release through gas-fired turbine generators during peak 
electric demand periods. In this manner, according to NES, the NES

[[Page 23910]]

Facility will reclaim the ``compression power'' used to compress and 
store air, for purposes of generating electric energy for sale or 
exchange into wholesale markets. NES asserts that participants in 
electric energy markets will be able to use the NES Facility as a 
mechanism by which they can store electric energy obtained in wholesale 
markets during off-peak periods and exchange it for electric energy or 
ancillary services made available to wholesale markets during peak 
periods.
    NES asks in its Petition that the Commission confirm that the 
various ways in which electric energy may be stored and exchanged 
through the medium of the NES Facility qualify as transactions 
involving the sale of electric energy and ancillary services for resale 
in interstate commerce, i.e., as ``electric service,'' as that term is 
defined at 18 CFR 35.2(a), subject exclusively to the Commission's FPA 
jurisdiction.
    NES states that it is currently in the process of securing 
additional equity investors and arranging for the financing of the 
initial phase of its project. NES asserts that the financial markets, 
potential equity investors and would-be counter parties all require 
certainty as to how electric energy transactions involving the NES 
Facility will be treated for regulatory purposes. NES therefore asks 
that the requested declaratory order be issued by June 30, 2001.
    NES states that it has served copies of its Petition upon 
representatives of FirstEnergy Corp. and American Electric Power, the 
public utilities with which it will be interconnected, and upon 
representatives of the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio and the 
Attorney General of Ohio. Questions concerning this filing may be 
directed to counsel for NES, James F. Bowe, Jr., Dewey Ballantine LLP, 
at (202) 429-1444, fax (202) 429-1579, or [email protected].

15. Calpine Corporation

[Docket No. EL01-71-000]

    Take notice that on April 27, 2001, Calpine Corporation (Calpine) 
submitted for filing a Petition for an Enforcement Action and/or 
Declaratory Order and Request for Expedited Treatment pursuant to 
Section 210(h)(2)(B) of the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 
1978 (PURPA), 16 U.S.C.A.Sec. 824a-3(h)(2)(B) (2000), and Rule 207 of 
the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.207.
    Calpine alleges that Decision 01-03-067, issued by the California 
Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) on March 28, 2001 (Avoided Cost 
Decision), violates PURPA Section 210, 16 U.S.C. Sec. 824a-3 which 
requires, inter alia, that rates for purchases from QFs shall not 
exceed incremental cost to the utility, nor shall those rates 
discriminate against qualifying cogenerators or small power producers. 
The Avoided Cost Decision changes the formula by which avoided cost 
rates are calculated.
    This change violates PURPA, Calpine alleges, for three reasons: (i) 
The Avoided Cost Decision sets avoided costs in an arbitrary and 
unlawful manner, without any relationship whatsoever to the purchasing 
utility's ``full avoided costs,'' thus violating the PURPA avoided cost 
mandate; (ii) the Avoided Cost Decision subjects QFs to improper CPUC 
rate regulation, in contravention of PURPA and; (iii) the Avoided Cost 
Decision sets payments to QFs at price levels at which QFs cannot 
economically generate, contrary to the PURPA objective of encouraging 
generation. Calpine asks this Commission to institute an enforcement 
action and/or to issue a declaratory order, and requests that it do so 
using expedited treatment, to grant relief to the QFs from the Avoided 
Cost Decision.
    Comment date: May 25, 2001, in accordance with Standard Paragraph E 
at the end of this notice.
