Substation Visit Information. Once the NYISO has determined that the developer has submitted a valid Interconnection Request, Con Xxxxxx will allow the developer, upon the developer’s request and subject to executing the required agreements with Con Edison, access to the proposed interconnecting substation for the purpose of a site visit and technical evaluation. The two required agreements between Con Edison and the project’s developer that must be executed prior to the substation visit are: The Confidentiality Agreement and Exhibit A Letter Agreements, if any; and License Agreement. Both agreements are pro forma documents and may not be altered in any way. As part of the License Agreement, the developer will also need to provide a Certificate of Liability Insurance to Con Edison. In general, the insurance policy will need to cover liability of not less than $7,500,000. The specific requirements are contained in the License Agreement. Once License Agreement has been signed and Certificate of Liability Insurance has been provided, Con Edison requests that the developer give Con Xxxxxx a two-week advance notice prior to the planned date for the substation visit. This is needed to appropriately coordinate the availability of personnel from different organization such as Engineering, Substation, EH&S and Planning. Con Edison will not allow substation visits during any system emergency. For the substation visit, the developer and its consultant are required to have the appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). At a minimum, the PPE required will be hard hat (non- white color), safety shoes, cotton clothing and safety glasses. During a substation visit, the developer may be allowed to take photographs of certain substation equipment associated with the proposed Point of Interconnection. At the end of the substation visit, Con Edison personnel will review the photographs and assure that those images are acceptable for developer retention. These photographs constitute confidential information and are subjected to the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement.
