NY Transco Settlement Conference Order Under ER26-893

FERC issued a procedural order scheduling the first settlement conference in the New York Transco LLC rate case (ER26-893). This administrative action sets the timeline for parties to engage in settlement negotiations before formal adjudication. The settlement judge assigned to the proceeding will oversee discussions aimed at resolving disputed rate matters.

Affected parties including transmission operators, utilities, and ratepayers should monitor this proceeding for updates. Settlement conferences typically delay formal rate case timelines but may result in negotiated rate adjustments that could affect transmission costs passed through to consumers. Parties should prepare settlement positions and consider participation in the conference process.
