PJM Transmission Owners’ Partial Compliance Filing 
 
Dear Secretary Reese: 
 
 
In partial compliance with the Commission’s June 18, 2026 order in Docket Nos. EL25-
49, et al.,1 the PJM Transmission Owners, acting through the Consolidated Transmission Owners 
Agreement,2 submit this filing.  As required under the June 18 Order, the PJM Transmission 
Owners are submitting new and revised tariff records to the PJM Open Access Transmission Tariff 
(“PJM Tariff”) necessary to implement the rate for Interim Network Integration Transmission 
Service (“Interim NITS”).3  
 
I. 
DESCRIPTION OF COMPLIANCE FILING 
 
 
In the June 18 Order in response to the record developed in the paper hearing, the 
Commission established as just and reasonable certain rates, terms, and conditions for the new 
transmission services directed in its December 18, 2025 order.4  The new transmission services 
are: Interim NITS, firm contract demand transmission service, and non-firm contract demand 
transmission service. 
 
 
1 PJM Interconnection, L.L.C., 195 FERC ¶ 61,209 (2026) (“June 18 Order”).  The PJM Transmission Owners note 
that the Commission’s directives being complied with herein are under challenge before the Commission and 
through petitions for review, such that the tendered tariff sheet revisions herein may be subject to a subsequent 
termination filing. 
2 Consolidated Transmission Owners Agreement, FERC Rate Schedule No. 42, § 7.3.  As the Commission has 
noted, the transmission owners in PJM have exclusive and unilateral rights regarding the cost allocation provisions 
of Schedule 12 of the PJM Tariff.  Neptune Regional Transmission System, LLC and Long Island Power Auth. v. 
PJM Interconnection, L.L.C., 175 FERC ¶ 61,247, at P 47 (2021).  See also PJM Tariff, Part I, Section 9.1(a). 
3 Pursuant to Order No. 714, this filing is being submitted by PJM Interconnection, L.L.C. ("PJM") on behalf of the 
PJM Transmission Owners as part of an XML filing package that conforms with the Commission's regulations.  
PJM has agreed to make all filings on behalf of the PJM Transmission Owners in order to retain administrative 
control over the PJM Tariff.  Thus, the PJM Transmission Owners requested that PJM submit the revisions to the 
PJM Tariff in the eTariff system as part of PJM's electronic Intra PJM Tariff.

In order to implement the new transmission services, the Commission directed PJM and 
the PJM Transmission Owners to file, within 60 days of the date of issuance of the June 18 Order, 
a compliance filing to revise the PJM Tariff.  On July 28, 2026, PJM and certain of the PJM 
Transmission Owners filed motions requesting that the Commission extend the compliance 
deadline in this proceeding for 90 days, until November 16, 2026, so that it aligns with the deadline 
by which PJM and certain PJM Transmission Owners have requested to submit filings in response 
to the Commission’s overlapping show cause order in Docket No. EL26-67-000.  On August 14, 
2026, the Commission granted these extension requests.   
 
 
Notwithstanding its request for extension, PJM committed to submit a compliance filing 
on August 17, 2026, addressing several compliance directives, including those related to Interim 
NITS.5  In order to align with PJM’s commitment to address Interim NITS by August 17, 2026, 
the PJM Transmission Owners are submitting this partial compliance filing to establish the rate for 
Interim NITS.  Accordingly, attached to this filing are new and revised tariff records for the PJM 
Tariff necessary to implement the rate for Interim NITS.  
 
 
Specifically, attached are: 
 
 
(i) 
New Sections 706 and 706.1 of Subpart A of new Part XI of the PJM Tariff.  New 
Part XI concerns Transmission Services Available for Eligible Customers Taking 
Service on Behalf of Co-Located Loads.  New Sections 706 and 706.1 specify the 
Interim NITS rate.  
 
(ii)  
Revisions to Section 1 of Part I of the PJM Tariff (Definitions) adding two new 
definitions for “Responsible Customer” and “Co-Located Gross Demand.”  
 
(iii) 
Revisions to Section (b)(viii) of Schedule 12 of the PJM Tariff (FERC Filing) 
replacing extraneous language with the newly defined term “Responsible 
Customer.” 
 
II. 
EFFECTIVE DATE 
 
The PJM Transmission Owners request that the revisions submitted with this partial 
compliance filing become effective on July 1, 2028.  It is the PJM Transmission Owners’ 
understanding that July 1, 2028 is the effective date that PJM will request for its related compliance 
filing concerning Interim NITS.
