Father in heaven, we thank You for Your abundant blessings. Thank You for life itself, for the measure of health we need to fulfill our callings, for sustenance, and for the privilege of serving the people of the great state of Michigan.

In the Scriptures, You have said that citizens ought to obey the governing authorities since You have established those very authorities to promote peace, order, and justice. Therefore, today we pray for our Governor, Rick Snyder, all Senators, all Representatives, and all the various levels of state government. In particular, we pray that You will graciously grant them wisdom to govern amid the conflicting interests and issues of our times, a sense of the welfare and true needs of our people, a keen thirst for justice and righteousness, confidence in what is good and fitting, and the ability to work together in harmony even when there are honest disagreements.

We pray that You guide them as they work through the agenda set before them this day. Give them an assurance of what would please You and what would benefit those who live and work in and around our beloved state of Michigan.

We ask all these things through Christ our Lord. Amen.

The President, Lieutenant Governor Calley, led the members of the Senate in recital of the Pledge of Allegiance.

Resolutions

Senate Resolution No. 52

The resolution consent calendar was adopted.

Senator Jones offered the following resolution:

Senate Resolution No. 52.

A resolution declaring May 2011 as Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, It is most appropriate to join with motorcyclists throughout the state of Michigan in commemorating May 2011 as Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month. This prudent observation elicits all Michigan motorists the opportunity to re-dedicate themselves to the utmost standards of highway safety; and

Whereas, The emergence of spring is synonymous with the return of motorcycle mavens to our state’s roadways. Throughout Michigan, motorcyclists have been on the cutting edge of promoting the wise and sensible use of this enjoyable mode of travel. Indeed, the disproportionate number of motorcycle fatalities makes it vitally important to encourage motorcyclists to understand and practice the highest degree of safety. It is also important to remind other drivers that highway safety is beneficial to all parties traveling on public roadways; and

Whereas, Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month encourages motorcycle operators to don proper protective riding attire; maintain their motorcycles at a high level of safe operating conditions; abide by the laws of the road; and implement operating techniques providing an additional standard of safety. Additionally, car and truck drivers are informed of the fact that motorcyclists are resuming their travels on our public roadways, and each is encouraged to be exceptionally vigilant and watchful when approaching or passing a motorcycle on the highway. It is a distinct pleasure, on this occasion, to encourage all of those who share our streets that safety is every driver’s responsibility; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the Senate, That the members of this legislative body commemorate May 2011 as Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month in the state of Michigan. All of Michigan’s citizens are urged to identify and know the different types and scope of vehicles on our public roadways and to maintain a caring attitude toward proper allocation of lanes on the road, making the roads of our Great Lakes State safer for all.

Senators Anderson, Bieda, Booher, Caswell, Hansen, Hildenbrand, Hopgood, Kowall, Marleau, Proos and Richardville were named co‑sponsors of the resolution.

Senator Pavlov moved that consideration of the following resolutions be postponed for today:

Senate Resolution No. 30

Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 13

House Concurrent Resolution No. 7

House Concurrent Resolution No. 8

Senate Resolution No. 27

Senate Resolution No. 34

The motion prevailed.

House Concurrent Resolution No. 9.

A concurrent resolution to urge the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to grant a rehearing and modify its December 16, 2010 order approving the Midwest Independent Transmission System Operator’s cost allocation proposal to share transmission costs.

Whereas, The need for and cost of new, long distance transmission lines are important challenges facing the electric industry in the United States. New transmission facilities are needed to provide essential electric reliability and meet the future demands of a technologically driven economy. However, the Department of Energy estimates that expanding the use of wind power could require transmission expansion costs of $60 billion by 2030; and

Whereas, Ultimately, the costs of new transmission and who pays these costs are determined by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). Under the Federal Power Act, FERC has the authority to regulate interstate transmission and must ensure that transmission rates are just and reasonable. Justness is also a centerpiece of FERC’s Order 890, first issued in 2007, which establishes the commission’s transmission cost allocation principles. Under Order 890, FERC stated that when determining who pays for new transmission, it will first consider whether the cost allocation proposal fairly assigns costs among participants, including those who cause them to be incurred and those who otherwise benefit from them. FERC also stated the intent to consider the support of state authorities and participants when approving cost allocation proposals; and

Whereas, The transmission tariff proposed by the Midwest Independent Transmission System Operator (MISO), which controls the grid in Michigan, 12 other states, and the province of Manitoba, proposes to allocate 100 percent of the costs of certain transmission projects designated as “Multi Value Projects” (MVP) to all customers in the MISO region. The tariff does not consider the unique situation of Michigan as a peninsular state that may not benefit from the construction of transmission lines in other parts of the MISO region. Additionally, the tariff does not adequately consider the principle of cost causation with regard to lower voltage transmission facilities proposed for shared cost allocation; and

Whereas, Since Michigan accounts for 20 percent of the MISO load, Michigan consumers would be responsible for one-fifth of any new MVP transmission facilities approved to be built in the MISO region. FERC’s ruling allows for an uncommon method of allocating costs on a regional basis. There are concerns about the cost benefit analysis that is being used by MISO to approve MVP transmission facilities; and

Whereas, Several states, utilities, and ratepayer groups have filed for rehearing and clarification, including the Michigan Public Service Commission; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That we support the Michigan Public Service Commission’s and the MISO Northeast Transmission Customers’ requests for clarification and applications for rehearing of FERC’s December 16 Order approving the Midwest Independent Transmission System Operator’s cost allocation proposal to share transmission costs; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the Chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, the Chairman of the Michigan Public Service Commission, the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Midwest Independent Transmission System Operator, and the members of the Michigan congressional delegation.

The House of Representatives has adopted the concurrent resolution.

Pending the order that, under rule 3.204, the concurrent resolution be referred to the Committee on Government Operations,

Senator Pavlov moved that the rule be suspended.

The motion prevailed, a majority of the members serving voting therefor.

The question being on the adoption of the concurrent resolution,

Senator Pavlov moved that the concurrent resolution be referred to the Committee on Energy and Technology.

The motion prevailed.

Senators Hansen and Proos were named co‑sponsors of the concurrent resolution.
