continue to support the Commission's adoption of the terms of the Stipulation and Settlement.

November 18, 2025 as the deadline for all parties to file testimony and set December 2, 2025,and
continuing December 3-5, 2025 as needed, for the Technical Hearing. The Commission included
methods to participate in the Technical Hearing online and telephonically.
4. While FEA continues to support the Commission's adoption of the terms of the
Stipulation and Settlement, it does not intend to file testimony on November 18,2025. As a result,
FEA will not have a witness at the Technical Hearing. Additionally,FEA does not intend to cross-
examine any other party's witness.
5. FEA counsel resides and works in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.
6. Given the reasons set forth above, allowing FEA counsel to attend the hearing remotely
will promote judicial economy and avoid unnecessary travel expense, especially given the
uncertainty of funding due to the ongoing federal government shutdown.
7. Granting FEA's Motion will not prejudice any party to this case, nor will it impede the
hearing process.
WHEREFORE, FEA respectfully requests that this Commission grant its Motion and
permit FEA counsel to attend the Technical Hearing remotely and excuse in-person attendance.
