2009-S7890 - Summary

Provides that the New York power authority shall have jurisdiction over any municipal corporation that owns and operates an electric distribution system and distributes any power from the authority.

                                 BILL NUMBER:  S7890

 TITLE OF BILL :

An act to amend the public authorities law and the general municipal
law, in relation to clarifying the regulatory authority of the New
York power authority


 PURPOSE :

This act would clarify that the New York  Power Authority retains
regulatory jurisdiction over all municipal electric utilities.

 SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS :

Section 1 amends section 1014 of the public authorities law to clarify
that municipal electric utilities who purchase and distribute power
from the New York Power Authority shall be regulated by the Authority
and not by the Public Service Commission.

Section 2 amends section 364 of the general municipal law to exempt
from regulation by the Public Service Commission those municipalities
who distribute power from the New York Power Authority but do not
generate power for distribution.

Section 3 sets forth the effective date of this Act.

 EXISTING LAW :
Currently, Public Authorities Law section 1014 states that entities
whose power is generated exclusively by the New York Power Authority
shall be regulated by the Authority and not the Public Service
Commission. General Municipal Law section 364 provides that municipal
electric utilities shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the Public
Service Commission.

 JUSTIFICATION :
Small municipalities across the state provide electric service to
their residents through electric distribution systems run by the
municipalities themselves.  Pursuant to state and federal law, these
municipalities receive an allocation of low-cost hydropower from the
Niagara Power Project and through the New York Power Authority.
Before the deregulation of the power industry, these municipalities
purchased all of their power through the Power Authority. After
deregulation, most municipalities now purchase a percentage of their
power on the open market.

As the law is written, this brings them under the regulatory
jurisdiction of the Public Service Commission. Accordingly, whenever a
municipality needs to change its rates, it must expend hundreds of
thousands of dollars to hire experts and participate in a relatively
adversarial rate-making process before the PSC. The PSC was created to
regulate the behavior of large, investor owned, for-profit utility
companies, and to hold consumers as shown by the records of the
utility, residing in the territory in which the utility rate or rates
referred to in said complaint is or are applicable.

(c) A municipal corporation that owns and operates an electric
distribution system and distributes any power from the New York Power
Authority shall be regulated by the New York Power Authority, and not
subject to article four of the public service law, except for those
municipalities that self generate power for distribution purposes.

Section 3. This act shall take effect January 1, 2011.

  law, in relation to clarifying the regulatory  authority  of  the  New
  York power authority

  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. Section 1014 of the public authorities law, as  amended  by
chapter 446 of the laws of 1972, is amended to read as follows:
  S  1014.  Public service law not applicable to authority; inconsistent
provisions in other acts superseded. The rates, services  and  practices
relating  to  the generation, transmission, distribution and sale by the
authority, of power to be generated from the projects authorized by this
title shall not be subject to the provisions of the public  service  law
nor  to  regulation by, nor the jurisdiction of the department of public
service.  IN PARTICULAR, THE AUTHORITY, AND NOT THE DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC
SERVICE, WILL HAVE REGULATORY AUTHORITY AND JURISDICTION OVER ANY  MUNI-
CIPALITY  THAT  OWNS  AND  OPERATES  AN ELECTRIC DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM AND
DISTRIBUTES ANY POWER FROM  THE  AUTHORITY,  EXCEPT  FOR  THOSE  MUNICI-
PALITIES  THAT  SELF GENERATE POWER FOR DISTRIBUTION PURPOSES. Except to
the extent article seven of the public service law applies to the siting
and operation of a major utility transmission facility as defined there-
in, and except to the extent section eighteen-a of such law provides for
assessment of the authority for  certain  costs  relating  thereto,  the
provisions  of  the  public  service law and of the conservation law and
every other law relating to the department  of  public  service  or  the
public  service  commission  or to the conservation department or to the
functions, powers or duties assigned to the division of water power  and
control by chapter six hundred nineteen, of the laws of nineteen hundred
twenty-six, shall so far as is necessary to make this title effective in
accordance  with  its terms and purposes be deemed to be superseded, and
wherever any provision of law  shall  be  found  in  conflict  with  the
provisions  of  this title or inconsistent with the purposes thereof, it

shall be deemed to be superseded, modified or repealed as the  case  may
require.
  S  2.  Subdivision  2  of  section 364 of the general municipal law is
amended by adding a new paragraph (c) to read as follows:
  (C) A  MUNICIPAL  CORPORATION  THAT  OWNS  AND  OPERATES  AN  ELECTRIC
DISTRIBUTION  SYSTEM  AND  DISTRIBUTES ANY POWER FROM THE NEW YORK POWER
AUTHORITY SHALL BE REGULATED BY THE NEW YORK POWER  AUTHORITY,  AND  NOT
SUBJECT  TO  ARTICLE  FOUR  OF  THE PUBLIC SERVICE LAW, EXCEPT FOR THOSE

them accountable to the public. Small municipal utilities are already
directly accountable to the public through local elections. It is for


this reason that similarly situated utilities, such as rural
cooperative electric utilities and municipal water utilities, are not
subjected to the PSC's regulatory authority in this manner.

This legislation would restore the former state of affairs, where NYPA
regulated all the municipal electric utilities. NYPA already works
extensively with the municipal utilities because the vast majority of
their power comes from NYPA. Moreover, NYPA already regulates several
of the municipalities who still receive all of their power from NYPA.

Moreover, NYPA already regulates several of the municipalities who

to serve areas outside of their corporate boundaries pursuant to
section 68 of the Public Service law.
