The Level 2 Interconnection Review shall then be conducted in accordance with the following procedures:

1. An EU shall, within 10 business days after receipt of the Interconnection Request, inform the Interconnection Customer in writing or by electronic mail that the Interconnection Request is complete or incomplete and indicate what, if any, materials are missing. As part of this process, the EU shall assign a Queue Position. The Queue Position of the Interconnection Request shall be used to determine the potential Adverse System Impact of the DGF based on the relevant screening criteria. If there are higher queued Interconnection Requests on the same radial line circuit, the EU shall evaluate the Interconnection Requests by performing any Level 2 screens requiring aggregate capacity calculations and determine if the DGF in combination with the higher queued Interconnection Requests exceeds any of the aggregate capacity requirements. If an aggregate capacity requirement is exceeded, the EU shall notify the Interconnection Customer and shall not be obligated to meet the timeline for reviewing the Interconnection Request until such time as the EU has completed the review of all other Interconnection Requests that have a higher Queue Position and impact the aggregate capacity calculation that has been exceeded.

2. At the time an EU determines additional information is required to complete an evaluation, the EU shall request the information. The time necessary to complete the evaluation may be extended by mutual agreement of the parties, but only to the extent of the time required for receipt of the additional information. During an extension of time to submit additional information, the EU may not alter the Interconnection Customer's Queue Position.

3. Within 20 business days after the EU notifies the Interconnection Customer that it has received a completed Interconnection Request, the EU shall:

a. Evaluate the Interconnection Request using the Level 2 screening criteria;

b. Review any analysis provided by the Interconnection Customer, using the same criteria used by the customer; and

c. Provide the Interconnection Customer with the EU's evaluation, including a comparison of the results of its own analyses with those of Interconnection Customer, if applicable. When an EU does not have a record of receipt of the Interconnection Request and the Interconnection Customer can demonstrate that the original Interconnection Request was delivered, the EU shall expedite its review to complete the evaluation of the Interconnection Request within 20 business days of the Interconnection Customer's re-submittal.
