Yes. I read that.

I also read this:

A primary requirement is that "public utilities" under the Federal Power Act (FPA), mostly investor-owned utilities, must have an open access transmission tariff on file at FERC that offers the same or superior terms and conditions as a pro forma tariff that FERC included with the final rule. The tariff must offer transmission services comparable to those a transmission owner provides itself, which is known as FERC's "comparability standard." Utilities must offer point-to-point and network service and charge the same transmission rates or apply for new rates in a separate filing. Power pools must remove member-preferential access and pricing provisions and offer comparable terms and conditions to all transmission customers.

It simply says the tariffs must be non-discriminatory not that they can't charge what they want. They can gig everyone across the board provided they're willing to gig themselves or offer bargain rates to everyone across the board provided they're willing to offer bargain rates to themselves...non-discriminatory.

As I said before we disagree on what the term means.
