Procedures for the Payment of Refunds issued September 10, 1997, in 
Docket No. RP97-369-000, et al. (September 10, 1997 Order).
    PEPL states that Appendix A to its filing contains the Kansas Ad 
Valorem tax refunds due from PEPL's May 18, 1999 refund report, and 
reflects the adjustments for additional Kansas Ad Valorem tax refunds 
that would result from the Commission's Order on Remand issued on April

received refunds of Kansas Ad Valorem Taxes during the period April 
1998 through April 1999 totaling $125,724.51. PEPL has received no 
additional Kansas Ad Valorem Tax refunds from its producer suppliers 
during the twelve-month period April 1999 through March 2000. Pursuant 
to the Commission's September 10, 1997 order, PEPL will continue to
