    As announced in the Notice of Technical Conference issued in this

approximately 8:45 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and Wednesday, September 11, 2019

will be held in Hearing Room 1 at Commission headquarters, 888 First

participate. The purpose of this conference is to discuss issues 
related to transmission line ratings, with a focus on dynamic and 
ambient-adjusted line ratings. In particular, this conference will 
explore what transmission line rating methodologies and related 
practices might constitute best practices, and what, if any, Commission 
action in these areas might be appropriate. There will be an 
opportunity to provide comments after the conference. A notice 
establishing a date when comments are due will be published after the 
conference.
    The conference will be open for the public to attend in person, or
