Section 3.2 Calculating Deficiency Charge

BOX Formula 3 refers to a Winter Season Annual CONE factor in accordance with Section 3.4 which does not seem to exist.

The layering of costs could grow to a point of seeming excessive, depending on the value of the CONE that is used. It would be helpful to have examples which demonstrate the magnitude of the potential penalty a Participant might have assigned for one or two consecutive deficiency seasons.

Although the tariff is explicit that the CONE be a based on a new natural gas generator, there is still a significant range of costs that could be included, or that could vary widely. Depending on cost assumptions adopted, the penalty could significantly change and Participants should understand the range of a potential penalty.
