    On January 11, 2021, several utilities, including Athens Utilities Board and Gibson Electric Membership Corporation, filed a complaint against Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). They want FERC to require TVA to provide transmission services at fair rates and terms, similar to those TVA gives itself, and to formalize interconnection arrangements. The complaint also requests that others with an interest in the case file their responses or objections by February 1, 2021. This filing is part of a formal process allowing stakeholders to provide their input on the case.

    The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) issued a notice regarding the Northern States Power Company's intent to file a license application for the Gile Flowage Storage Reservoir Project in Wisconsin. The notice begins the pre-filing process and requests public comments on the Pre-Application Document (PAD) and Scoping Document 1, with a deadline for submissions set for March 17, 2021. The commission encourages electronic filing of comments and study requests, as part of the planning process for the project, without holding a public scoping meeting due to COVID-19 restrictions. The notice also discusses collaborations with various agencies and the Northern States as FERC’s non-federal representative for specific consultations.

    Simple Explanation

    The government is helping a company in Wisconsin get ready to ask for a special permission to use a lake for storing water, and they want to hear what people think before March 17, 2021. But because of a big sickness going around, they can't meet in person to talk about it, so they are asking everyone to send their thoughts online.
