Under the Open Meetings Act, the Illinois Commerce Commission on June 16 held a special open meeting and approved comments to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) in docket ER25-2454-000 regarding Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) tariff provisions to amend its expedited resource addition, study, or ARRIS process, the commission said at the meeting.

The approval came by voice consent after the chair asked whether there were objections. "Are there any objections to approving the comments? Hearing none, the comments are approved," the chair said. Commissioners McCabe, Reddick and Paradis participated in Chicago and Commissioner Kerrigan joined from Springfield; the chair said the commission had a quorum.

Commissioners did not record amendments, a roll-call vote, or additional debate in the minutes of the special meeting. The chair opened and closed the meeting under the Open Meetings Act and the agenda listed a single item: the commission's comments to FERC in ER25-2454-000. The transcript records no further substantive discussion or conditions attached to the approval.

Judge Tee Kingsley asked whether there were any other matters, and replied to the chair when asked; the meeting was then adjourned. The transcript shows the action concluded the agenda for the special meeting.

The filing addressed in ER25-2454-000 pertains to MISO's proposed tariff changes to an expedited resource-addition/study process sometimes referenced as ARRIS. The commission's approval authorizes the filing of the commission's comments in that FERC docket. The transcript does not include the text of the comments or details on the commission's substantive positions within those comments.
