Required Notice to Utilities and State Regulatory Authorities Pursuant to l8 C.F.R. 5 292.207(aXii), you must provide a copy of your self-certification or request for Commission certification to the utilities with which the facility will interconnect and/or transacL as wellas to the State regulatory authorities of the states in which your facility and those utilities reside.

What to Expect From the Commission After You File An applicant filing a Form 556 electronically will receive an email message acknowledging receipt of the filing and showing the docket number assigned to the filing. Such email is typically sent within one business day. but may be delayed pending confirmation by the Secretary of the Commission of the contents of the filing. An applicant submitting a self-certification of QF status should expect to receive no documents from the Commission, other than the electronic acknowledgement of receipt described above. Consistent with its narne, a selFcertification is a certification by the applicontitserf that the facility meets the relevant reguirements for QF status, and does not involve a determination by the Commission as to the status of the facility. An acknowledgement of receipt of a self-certification, in particular, does not represent a determination by the Commission with regard to the QF status of the facility. An applicant self<ertifoing may, however, receive a rejection, revocation or deficiency letter if its application is found, during periodic compliance reviews, not to comply with the relevant requirements. An applicant submitting a request for Commission certification will receive an order either granting or denying certification of QF status, or a letter requesting additional information or rejecting the application. Pursuant to l8 C.F.R. 5 292.207(bX3), the Commission must act on an application for Commission certification within 90 days of the later of the filing date of the application orthe filing date of a supplemeng amendment or other change to the application. Waiver Requests l8 C.F.R. S 292.20a(aX3) allows an applicant to request a waiver to modify the method of calculation pursuant to 1 8 C.F.R. S 292.2ffilal(21to determine if two facilities are considered to be located at the same site, for good cause, 18 C.F.R. I 292.205(c) allows an applicant to reguest waiver of the requirements of l8 C.F.n. SS 292.205(a) and (b) for operating and efficiency upon a showing that the facility will produce significant energy savings. A request for waiver of these requirements must be submitted as a petition for declaratory order, with the appropriate filing fee for a petition for declaratory order. Applicants reguesting Commission recertification as part of a request for waiver of one of these requirements should electronically submit their completed Form 556 along with their petition for declaratory order, rather than filing their Form 556 as a separate request for Commission recertification. Only the filing fee for the petition for declaratory order must be paid to covet both the waiver reguest and the request for recertification if such requests are mode simultaneously. 1 8 C.F.R. S 292.203(dX2) allows an applicant to request a waiver of the Form 556 filing reguirements, for good cause. Applicants filing a petition for declaratory order requesting a waiver under 18 C.F.R, 5 292.203(dX2) do not need to complete or submit a Form 556 with their petition, FERC Form 556 Page 4 - lnstructions Geog raphic Coord i nates lf a street address does not exist for your facility, then line 3c of the Form 556 requires you to report your facility's geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude). Geographic coordinates may be obtained from severaldifferent sources.

The Commission's regulations provide a two.pronged approach to demonstrating compliance with the requirements for fundamental use of the facilityrs energy output. First the Commission has established in 18 C.F.R. S 292.205(d)(3) a 'fundamental use test' that can be used to demonstrate compliance with 18 C.F.R. 5 292.205(dX2). Under the fundamental use test, a facility is considered to comply with l8 C.F.R. 5 292.205(dX2) if at least 50 percent of the facility's total annual energy output (including electrical, thermal, chemical and mechanical energy output) is used for industrial, cornmercial, residential or institutional purposes. Second, an applicant for a facility that does not pass the fundamental use test may provide a narrative explanation of and support for its contention that the facility nonetheless meets the requirement that the electrical, thermal, chemical and mechanical output of an EPAct 2005 cogeneration facility is used fundamentally for industrial, commercial, residential or institutional purposes and is not intended fundamentally for sale to an electric utility, taking into account technological, efficiency, economic, and variable thermal energy requirements, as well as state laws applicable to sales of electric energy from a qualifoing facility to its host facility.

Applicant certifies its understanding that, if it is to rely upon passing the fundamental use test as a basis for complying with 't8 C.F.R. 5 292.205(dX2), then the facility must comply with the fundamental use test both in the I 2-month period beginning with the date the facility first produces electric energy, and in all subsequent calendar years. No. Your facility does not pass the fundamental use test. lnstead, you must provide in the Miscellaneous section starting on page 19 a narrative explanation of and support for why your facility meets the requirement that the electrical, thermal, chemlcal and mechanical output of an EPAct 2005 cogeneration facility ls used fundamentally for industrial, commercial, residential or institutional purposes and is not intended fundamentally for sale to an electric utility, taking into account technological, efficiency, economic. and variable thermal energy reguirements, as well as state laws applicable to sales of electric energy from a QF to its host facility. Applicants providing a narrative explanation of why their facility should be found to cornply with 18 C.F.R.

Applicant should also note that the percentage reported above will establish the standard that that facility must comply with, both for the 12-month period beginning with the date the facility first produces electric energy, and in all subsequent calendar years. See Order No. 671 at paragraph 51.
