Average System Cost Methodology (ASCM) Archives 2008 ASC Methodology Consultation Archives It is important to note that utilities interested in participating in the Residential Exchange Program in FY 2009 will need to send BPA a notice of intent to participate by February 22, 2008. BPA has identified an error in the Proposed 2008 ASC Methodology, Endnote b, regarding the calculation of return for Utilities that do not use depreciation or jurisdictional rate setting. BPA is currently reviewing this matter and will post a proposed revision to Endnote b as soon as possible. In addition, BPA will make a corresponding revision and posting to add language to the ASC Methodology template regarding this matter. The Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) hereby requests all interested parties to file a list of issues with BPA regarding BPA's proposed 2008 Average System Cost (ASC) Methodology by COB March 21, 2008. The list should include a statement of the issue (e.g., whether a certain cost should be included in ASC); a statement of the party's position on the issue; and a brief explanation in support of the party's position. The parties' lists will help BPA to identify the issues that must be discussed and resolved in the 2008 ASC Methodology consultation proceeding. The issues list can be submitted to BPAAverageSystemCost@bpa.gov.
