The provisions of Section 24.C.2. and Section 24.D.2 provide that to the extent that in any month the balance of the TCR account and/or 636 Account reaches zero or is a net credit balance, the assessment and crediting of the TCR Reservation Change, the 636 Reservation Charge, and the TCR Usage Surcharge shall cease unless and until the TCR and/or 636 Account again reach a net debit balance. FGT states that it is filing concurrently herewith a Transition Cost Recovery Report (TCR Report) which reflects the payment by FGT of $1,750,000.00 and $12,159.49 recoverable under FGT's TCR mechanism and Order No. 636 mechanism respectively. The TCR report also reflects that, based upon estimated recoveries, FGT's Order No. 636 Account balance will be fully recovered during March, 1997 and the TCR Account balance will be fully recovered during April, 1997. Accordingly, FGT states that it is filing herein to suspend its TCR Reservation Charge, 636 Reservation Charge and TCR Usage Surcharge effective May 1, 1997. FGT states that it will make a supplemental filing no later than June 15, 1997 to reflect actual recoveries for the months of March and April, 1997 and to set forth its proposal to refund any overcollections that may occur during April, 1997. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 24, these charges and surcharges will remain suspended unless and until the TCR Account and/or the 636 Account reach a net debit balance. Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said filing should file a motion to intervene or protest with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, in accordance with Sections 385.211 and 385.214 of the Commission's Rules and Regulations.
