Change Request 2025-CRF-002

Some Participants have interpreted the language in BPM 108 Appendix A - FS Demonstration Attestation to mean they are attesting to meeting the applicable Season’s Monthly FS Capacity Requirements and FS Transmission Requirements. The intent of the attestation was a declaration that the resources and contracts in the FS could be used to interchangeably serve any of the loads in the same FS (i.e.  “deliverability”).

Edit the language in BPM 108 Appendix A – FS Demonstration Attestation to clarify the intent of a declaration of deliverability rather than a testament to meeting the FS Capacity Requirements and FS Transmission Requirements.

The attestation is necessary for Participants to declare their due diligence in providing best available information, as well as verifying that the capacity and transmission provided on a single FS Submittal can be utilized to serve the load in that FS Submittal (as opposed to providing multiple FS Submittals for pockets of load and associated resources when resources are not available to all of the Participant's loads).
