`
`Basis for Intervening:
`Lyon­Lincoln Electric Cooperative, Inc. (â(cid:128)(cid:156)Lyon­Lincoln â(cid:128)(cid:157)) respectfully moves 
`to intervene in Docket No. ER20­2­000, in which Basin Electric Power Cooperative
`(â(cid:128)(cid:156)Basin Electric â(cid:128)(cid:157)) submits to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 
`(â(cid:128)(cid:156)Commission â(cid:128)(cid:157)) FERC Rate Schedules Nos. 1 through 19. The Rate Schedules 
`represent existing long­term, wholesale power supply contracts (â(cid:128)(cid:156)Wholesale 
`Power Contractsâ(cid:128)(cid:157)) between Basin Electric and its eighteen Class A member 
`cooperatives and one Class D member cooperative (individually, a â(cid:128)(cid:156)Member, â(cid:128)(cid:157) 
`and collectively, â(cid:128)(cid:156)Members â(cid:128)(cid:157)). Basin Electric explains that it submits this 
`filing because it will no longer qualify for an exemption from Commission 
`regulation under the Federal Power Act on the earlier of the date on which: (1) 
`it admits a Class A Member that does not qualify for such an exemption or (2) an
`existing Class A Member ceases to qualify for such an exemption.
`
`Lyon­Lincoln Electric Cooperative, Inc. (â(cid:128)(cid:156)Lyon­Lincoln â(cid:128)(cid:157)) respectfully moves 
`to intervene in Docket No. ER19­2909­000, in which Basin Electric Power 
`Cooperative (â(cid:128)(cid:156)Basin Electric â(cid:128)(cid:157)) submits Rate Schedule A to the Federal Energy
`Regulatory Commission (â(cid:128)(cid:156)Commission â(cid:128)(cid:157)) for approval. Rate Schedule A 
`establishes a comprehensive cost of service rate for the service that Basin 
`Electric provides to its eighteen Class A member cooperatives and one Class D 
`member cooperative (individually, a â(cid:128)(cid:156)Member, â(cid:128)(cid:157) and collectively, 
`â(cid:128)(cid:156)Members â(cid:128)(cid:157)) pursuant to the terms of wholesale power contracts ( â(cid:128)(cid:156)Wholesale 
`Power Contractsâ(cid:128)(cid:157)). Basin Electric explains that it makes this filing because 
`it will no longer qualify for an exemption from Commission regulation under the 
`Federal Power Act on the earlier of the date on which: (1) it admits a Class A 
`Member that does not qualify for such an exemption or (2) an existing Class A 
`Member ceases to qualify for such an exemption. Basin Electric requests waiver 
`of the Commissionâ(cid:128)(cid:153)s notice requirements and asks that the Commission permit 
`the Rate Schedules to go into effect on the date on which Basin Electric becomes
`subject to the Commissionâ(cid:128)(cid:153)s jurisdiction.
`
`Lyon­Lincoln is a not­for­profit member­owned electric cooperative based in 
`Tyler, Minnesota, serving approximately 3,300 members in southwestern Minnesota.
`Lyon­Lincoln is governed by a member­elected board of directors and is a 
`borrower under the United States Department of Agricultureâ(cid:128)(cid:153)s Rural Utilities 
`
`

`

`Service program. Because Lyon­Lincoln sells less than 4,000,000 megawatt hours 
`of electricity per year, it is not a â(cid:128)(cid:156)public utility â(cid:128)(cid:157) under section 201(e) 
`of the FPA by virtue of section 201(f) of the FPA. 16 U.S.C. Â§Â§ 824(e) and 
`824(f).  Lyon­Lincoln is an all­requirements member of East River Electric Power
`Cooperative, Inc. of Madison, South Dakota (â(cid:128)(cid:156)East River â(cid:128)(cid:157)).  East River is in
`turn a supplemental all­requirements member of Basin Electric and receives its 
`power and energy from both Basin Electric and Western Area Power Administration.
`Lyon­Lincoln is a member of both East River and Basin Electric.  
`
`As a Member of Basin Electric and East River, Lyon­Lincoln has a direct and 
`substantial interest in the outcome of these proceedings that cannot be 
`adequately represented by any other participant. Accordingly, Lyon­Lincoln 
`respectfully requests that it be granted full party status in these proceedings.
