FERC shoots down request for revised market surveillance proposal ahead of comment deadline

摘要

January 22 is the deadline for comments to be filed with federal regulators on a proposal for new reporting requirements designed to help detect energy market manipulation, and calls for suspension of the comment period have been denied. Industry groups had hoped that FERC would delay the proposed market surveillance rule given outstanding questions on the scope of the rulemaking and a general lack of clarity on how market participants would be expected to comply.
