Item 8.01 Other Events.
On
May 17, 2006, the Midwest Independent Transmission System
Operator Inc. (MISO) and International
Transmission Company (ITCTransmission) jointly filed revised tariff sheets with the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to adjust the
implementation of ITCTransmissions Attachment
O formula rate. The proposed modification would allow ITCTransmission to recover its expenses and
investments in transmission on a current rather than a lagging basis, thereby enhancing
ITCTransmissions ability to continue to rebuild and strengthen the transmission grid in Southeast
Michigan. The revised Attachment O would include a true-up mechanism so that customers would pay
only the amounts that correspond to ITCTransmissions revenue requirement. The filing has been
assigned FERC Docket No. ER06-1006 and can be accessed at
FERCs website at http://www.ferc.gov and at
ITCTransmissions website at
http://www.itctransco.com/news_filings.php. The proposed changes to the Attachment O formula rate
are subject to FERC approval, following its standard procedural requirements. There can be no
assurance that the modified Attachment O will be approved by FERC in the form submitted by
ITCTransmission or as to the timing of the receipt of any such approval.
On
May 26, 2006, ITCTransmissions billed rate of
$1.744 per kW/month for the period from June 1, 2006 to
May 31, 2007 was posted by MISO. The billed rate is based on ITCTransmissions
Attachment O rate formula as currently in effect and FERC Form 1
data for the year ended December 31, 2005. This information can
be accessed on the Internet at http://oasis.midwestiso.org/oasis/DECO.
