HR 6336

This bill, the Fair Allocation of Interstate Rates Act, aims to prevent electric utilities that operate across state lines from unfairly shifting costs for transmission infrastructure to consumers in states that didn't agree to the project's underlying policies. Specifically, it restricts utilities from allocating costs for certain transmission facilities to consumers if the facility was built or implemented to support a policy of a state where those consumers reside and consented to the allocation. The bill also establishes presumptions about who is responsible for costs and requires the Federal Energy Commission to create implementing rules.
