[Docket No. EL03-41-000]


New York State Electric & Gas Corporation, Complainant, v. 
Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation, Respondent; Notice of Complaint

January 15, 2003.
    Take notice that on January 14, 2003, New York State Electric & Gas 
Corporation (NYSEG) tendered for filing a complaint alleging that the 
New York Independent System Operator, Inc. (NYISO) has failed to 
enforce the expiration date in Attachment L of the NYISO Open Access 
Transmission Tariff (OATT) with respect to grandfathering for a pre-
NYISO transmission service agreement (TSA) between Niagara Mohawk Power 
Corporation (NMPC) and Allegheny Electric Cooperative, Inc. (AEC). 
NYSEG requests that the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 
(Commission) issue an order that, among other things: (1) Requires the 
NYISO to provide to NYSEG the billing information needed by NYSEG to 
bill AEC (or its designated agent) for NYSEG's Transmission Service 
Charge (TSC) under the NYISO OATT commencing as of July 1, 2001; (2) 
requires AEC (or the party contractually obligated to pay NYISO OATT 
charges for AEC) to pay NYSEG's TSC under the NYISO OATT (plus 
interest) commencing as of July 1, 2001; and (3) to avoid double 
billing, directs NMPC to make all appropriate refunds to AEC (with 
interest) for transmission charges collected from AEC under the NMPC 
service agreement after its June 30, 2001 grandfathering expiration 
date.
    NYSEG states that copies of the filing were served upon the NYISO, 
NMPC, AEC, and the New York Power Authority.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest this filing should 
file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, 
NE., Washington, DC 20426, in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 and

party must file a motion to intervene. The answer to the complaint and
