Notice of Article 10 Siting Board Meeting

To: Article 10 Stakeholder Participants and ListServe Subscribers

The Siting Board met last week to initiation the process of promulgating
regulations to implement Article 10, and yesterday issued a number of
documents that you can access at the Siting Board website:
http://www.dps.ny.gov/SitingBoard/

The text of the proposed regulations is attached to two of the documents:
the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking and the Memorandum and Resolution. The
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking gives the instructions and deadlines for
submitting comments. The Memorandum and Resolution provides a considerable
discussion and analysis of the stakeholder recommendations and the
rationale and objectives behind the regulations.

Another more formal notice of proposed rulemaking with additional
information will be published in the State Register on April 11, 2012.
[See: http://www.dos.state.ny.us/info/register.htm]

You may begin submitting your written comments at any time. Comments will
be accepted until May 29, 2012. Those proposing a different balance among
the competing considerations are strongly encouraged to file comments by
April 25, 2012.

Persons wishing to receive email notification whenever comments are filed
and entered into the case record should create a DMM account and subscribe
as soon as possible to the service list for the case by following the
on-line instructions to “Subscribe to Service List” found on the screen
page for Case 12-F-0036.

Party status in this kind of a case does not mean much, and you do not need
to be a party to the case to submit comments, but if you desire party
status, you must register as a party.

Please contact me if I can be of assistance.

We appreciate your continued participation.
