Transmission Planning and Cost Management; Supplemental Notice of 
Technical Conference

    As announced in the Notice of Technical Conference issued in this 
proceeding on April 21, 2022, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 
(Commission) will convene a Commissioner-led technical conference 
regarding transmission planning and cost management for transmission 
facilities developed through local or regional transmission planning 
processes in the above-captioned proceeding on October 6, 2022, from 
approximately 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
    The purpose of this conference is to explore measures to ensure 
sufficient transparency into and cost effectiveness of local and 
regional transmission planning decisions, including: (1) the role of 
cost management measures in ensuring the cost-effective identification 
of local transmission needs (e.g., planning criteria) and solutions to 
address identified local transmission and regional reliability-related 
transmission needs; and (2) cost considerations and the processes 
through which transmission developers recover their costs to ensure 
just and reasonable transmission rates. Additionally, this conference 
will also discuss potential approaches to providing enhanced cost 
management measures and greater transparency and oversight if needed to 
ensure just and reasonable transmission rates.
    A finalized agenda for this technical conference is attached. This 
supplemental notice includes further details regarding the agenda and 
speakers for the technical conference. An additional supplemental 
notice will be issued following the technical conference with the 
opportunity for interested parties to submit post-technical conference 
comments.
