[Docket No. AD04-13-000]


Assessing the State of Wind Energy in Wholesale Electricity 
Markets; Initial Notice of Technical Workshop

February 1, 2005.
    Take notice that the staffs of Bonneville Power Administration 
(BPA) and the Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) will 
participate with the staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 
(FERC) at a workshop on March 16-17, 2005, in Portland, Oregon. Further 
logistical details, including an agenda for the workshop, will be 
forthcoming. The workshop is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. and end at 
approximately 5 p.m. (PST) each day.
    The goal of the workshop is to work with interested market 
participants to develop clear definitions for additional wholesale 
electric transmission services, e.g., conditional firm transmission 
service, develop applicable pro forma tariff language that could be 
included in public utilities' open access transmission tariffs, and 
address attendant issues.
    The workshop is open for the public to attend, and preregistration 
is not required. There will be no on-line registration established for 
this event; on-site attendees may simply register on the day of the 
event.
    Capitol Connection offers the opportunity for remote listening of 
the conference via the Internet or a Phone Bridge Connection for a fee. 
Interested persons should make arrangements as soon as possible by 
visiting the Capitol Connection Web site at http://www.capitolconnection.gmu.edu and clicking on ``FERC.'' If you have any 
questions contact David Reininger or Julia Morelli at the Capitol 
Connection (703-993-3100).
