DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission


Notice of Change in Docketing and Processing for Market-Based 
Rate Quarterly Transaction Reports

April 18, 2000.
    Take notice that effective immediately the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission will consider all Quarterly Transaction Reports 
submitted by electric utilities with market-based rate authority to be 
informational in nature. This determination will result in the 
following listed modifications to the processing of these filings.
    The Secretary will no longer issue a public notice of Quarterly 
Transaction Reports. The reports will continue to be available to the 
public through the Commission's Records Information System (RIMS). To 
permit logical and easy access to the filings in RIMS, rather than 
being assigned new docket numbers, these items will be assigned the 
same docket number as the underlying proceeding in which the Commission 
granted the market-based rate authority. To insure the proper 
identification by docket number of each filing, the filing party must 
prominently identify on the filing the docket number in which the 
Commission granted the market-based rate authority.
    This notice is issued for the information and aid of all interested 
jurisdictional companies, the public and practitioners before the 
Commission as an explanation of the modified handling procedures for 
Quarterly Transaction Reports submitted by electric utilities with 
market-based rate authority. For further information, contact John 
Buckley at (202) 208-0275.

David P. Boergers,
Secretary.
