On 25 August 2010, NRPT has submitted two requests with OASIS TSRs # 74614403 and #74614407 to rollover its two existing transmission contracts of 25MW each on the BPAT-AESO path for a 5-year term. BC Hydro has evaluated all requests in the Long Term Point-to-Point queue and identifies BCPS's TSR# 71087057 that has met all criteria outline in section 16.4 of the Business Practice as the Competing Request. This Competing Request submitted on 9 November 2006 is requesting a capacity of 200MW on the BCTC-AESO path with a Start Date of 1 January 2011 for a 10-year term.
Pursuant to Business Practice Section 16, BC Hydro will initiate a Competing Process on 9 September 2010. The following outlines the steps that BC Hydro will take to execute the Competing Process.
1. BC Hydro notifies NRPT (Rollover Customer) by email on 7 September 2010 of its right of first refusal associated to Rollover Requests #74614403 and #74614407 in the Competing Process.
2. On 9 September 2010, BC Hydro will offer BCPS (Competing Request) by email a capacity of 50MW for a 10-year term with service starting 1 January 2011 on the condition that NRPT does not exercise its Right of First Refusal.
