The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) denied Consolidated Edison's request for a rehearing on the 1981 rule which automatically qualifies new diesel and dual-fueled cogeneration facilities under sections 201 and 210 of the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act. The petition was to return these two types of facilities on an interim exlusion status because of deficiencies in final environmental impact statements, faulty projections of the growth of cogeneration, socio-economic impacts, and tax effects. The article presents the arguments on both sides and FERC's conclusions.
