FERC dismisses Fuel Cell’s (Derby’s) request for waiver of Tariff Section III.13.A.2(b) (Interim Reconfiguration Auction Qualification) as unnecessary, finding entities that have achieved commercial operation (like Derby) need not elect Critical Path Monitoring to qualify for participation in the FCA18 reconfiguration auction.
