Description and background. The Regional Resource Adequacy Model (RAM) Working Group (formerly the JCAG Working Group) was set up to develop longer-range UCAP markets in NY, PJM and ISO-NE than currently exist. The RAM Working Group developed initial recommendations in mid-2002. The work plan was reassessed in light of the SMD NOPR and the ISOs/RTOs filed joint comments addressing resource adequacy on January 10, 2003. The comments described a central market-based resource adequacy framework, which is consistent with the goals of the SMD NOPR. XXXX was selected to analyze the proposed central resource adequacy market design, and presented their final report at the February 26 regional RAM meeting. A NYISO status report was filed with FERC on February 27, 2004. The broad range of concerns raised by stakeholder groups in each ISO/RTO make it unlikely that all of the ISO/RTOs will adopt the RAM proposal as it is currently formulated. It is anticipated that this effort may lead, instead, to enhancements in the capacity markets in each region. In enhancing their existing markets, the ISO/RTOs have committed to maintain the same product (UCAP) to enable trade between regions to occur and to identify and remove any remaining barriers to the trading of capacity between regions. Each region has Resource Adequacy/ICAP working groups looking at this issue. No plans have yet been established as yet to change the markets in any of the ISOs. The NYISO has submitted a hybrid proposal to its stakeholders for consideration which incorporates a forward capacity market for procurement of a portion of its future resource requirements.

Description and background. The elimination of export fees between ISO/RTO regions is an important objective of the FERC. The NYISO and ISO-NE have been working with their TOs and state regulators to accomplish this goal. During mid-2003, the NYISO and the New York transmission owners developed principles for the elimination of export charges from the New York Control Area, subject to reciprocity. The New England transmission owners included similar provisions in the RTO-NE filing with FERC on October 31, 2003. On March 24, 2004, FERC’s Order on RTO-NE was conditioned on the elimination of export fees between New York and New England by the end of 2004. In April 2004, an agreement in principle was achieved among ISO-NE, the NYISO, New York and NE state regulators calling for the elimination of export fees between the regions on or before December 2004.
Description and background. NYISO and ISO-NE have documented a technical definition of a virtual regional dispatch process and will proceed with further stakeholder meetings to finalize the technical definition and to work towards a joint stakeholder acceptance of the proposal.
Description and background. In January 2003, a Liaison Task Force was formed including all NPCC members as well as PJM to develop ways to improve the coordination of planning for the Northeast region. In December 2003 the ISOs achieved agreement on a draft protocol for the coordination of planning in the Northeast region. During the first quarter of 2004, ISO-NE, XXXXX and PJM solicited stakeholder input which was generally supportive of moving ahead with the protocol. • Milestones and timetable: ▪ The ISOs have developed a draft coordinated planning protocol document, have incorporated stakeholder input and plan to finalize the protocol document by mid-2004. [NOTE; UPDATE IF PROTOCOL IS EXECUTED PRIOR TO JUNE 22] This document provides the basis for standardizing data and information exchanges, developing a coordinated plan, and initiating a joint stakeholder process. ▪ The initial scope of work, to be implemented by Fall 2004, includes better coordination of information sharing by harmonizing the timing, development and exchange of data bases and modeling assumptions used in planning analysis, the establishment of standardized confidentiality agreements and building upon joint planning activities already under way. ▪ The intermediate term goal is to develop and issue an initial coordinated system plan by the end of 2004 which will cover the New York and New England region.

Description and background. In 1990, RIOC conceived of the Southtown Project, a collection of nine buildings located to the north of the Queensborough Bridge that would provide mixed income and affordable housing for thousands of new residents. RIOC completed an environmental impact statement in 1990. In 1999, RIOC approved more detailed plans for Southtown, approved design guidelines for the project and the following year signed a Development Agreement with Xxxxxx Companies Inc., which has built seven of the nine buildings. The developer now seeks RIOC’s approval of the final two buildings, issuance of zoning overrides and approval of ground leases. Although Buildings 8 and 9 are consistent with the earliest plans for Southtown and the 1990 environmental impact statement, RIOC has elected to prepare an environmental assessment and related documentation that conclude that the Proposed Action would not have any potential for significant adverse impacts. 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx XX 00000 T: (000) 000-0000 F: (000) 000-0000 xxxx.xx.xxx xxxxxxxxxxx@xxxx.xx.xxx PROPOSED ACTION Both buildings will exceed the NYC Zoning Resolution’s bulk limits and waterfront zoning regulations in several respects, which are explained in the environmental assessment. Notwithstanding these zoning exceedances, the Proposed Action and Buildings 8 and 9 would be consistent with the 1990 plan, the 1990 environmental impact statement and the 1999 design guidelines. REASONS SUPPORTING THE DETERMINATION OF NO SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: RIOC has required the developer to prepare a Full Environmental Assessment Form and Supplemental Environmental Studies (“Assessment”) to examine the potential environmental impacts of the Proposed Action, including the proposed changes. The Assessment examines the action’s potential to result in significant adverse impacts in the following areas: land use, zoning and public policy; socioeconomics; community facilities; open space and recreational facilities; shadows; cultural resources; urban design and visual resources; neighborhood character; natural resources; hazardous materials; waterfront revitalization plan; infrastructure; solid waste and sanitation services; use and conservation of energy; traffic and parking; transit and pedestrians; air quality; noise; construction impacts; and public health.
