North Dakota’s commission rule (N.D. Admin. Code ch. 69-09-07 (Small Power Production and Cogeneration, PURPA implementation), esp. 69-09-07-11 Interconnection costs) does not bind municipal utilitys; City of Sharon sets its own interconnection policy. We confirm its form on the first project. Rural electric cooperatives and municipal utilities are not covered by the PSC net billing rule or any state interconnection standard; they follow their own policies and federal PURPA obligations.
