Purpose of Local System Plan
Per Attachment K – Local, the LSP is a report that:
Describes projected improvements to non-PTF that are needed to maintain system reliability
Reflects: LSP Needs Assessments
Corresponding transmission system planning and expansion studies
Identifies: Local Planning Process
Criteria, Data, and Assumptions

LSP Project List
The LSP Project List is a cumulative listing of proposed regulated transmission solutions that may meet LSP needs.
Lower voltage facilities contained in the LSP Project List pertain to facilities supplying our wholesale municipal customers.
The LSP Project List contains the status of each project: Concept Proposed Planned Under Construction In Service

LSP Project List Definitions
Project Status Descriptions
(may vary slightly from RSP definitions)
Concept Project is under consideration as possible solution to a need, but little or no analysis is available
Proposed National Grid has internally determined that the project is an appropriate solution to a need, but has not yet obtained Proposed Plan Approval (PPA) from ISO-NE (1.3.9 ISO-NE approval)
Planned PPA has been approved (if required) and has internal approval.
Under Construction
Project has PPA approval and has internal approval.
In Service Project is complete

Local System Planning Process Local studies can result from:
Load Growth Area Reliability Assessments Point of Delivery Request from Customer Generation Interconnection Request Asset Replacements (included in list as a new addition)
A Planner – summarizes the results from the needs assessment and provides:
criteria, data and assumptions used in study builds study cases with proposed alternatives determines the most effective solution summarizes the results of the solutions study
