Electric Quarterly Reports; Revised Public Utility Filing 
Requirements; Notice of Extension of Time

February 11, 2003.
    On December 19, 2002, the Commission issued Order 2001-C (published 
12/27/02, Vol. 67 FR 79077), requiring future Electric Quarterly 
Reports to be filed using the new Electric Quarterly Report Submission 
Software. The fourth quarter Electric Quarterly Reports were originally 
due to be filed on or before January 31, 2003. This deadline was 
previously extended to February 14, 2003.
    On February 10, 2003, a bug was found in the program that 
inactivated some of the error checking on imported transaction data. 
The submission capability was temporarily disabled in order to preclude 
erroneous data from being filed at the Commission. A new version of the 
software was released today which reactivated the edit checks. This 
version will be automatically uploaded to the respondents' computers 
upon opening the Electric Quarterly Report application. Utilities that 
had previously imported data which passed the data integrity checks may 
find that some of their data will not pass the current edits.
    In consideration of this situation, we would like to allow 
utilities more time to correct their data to ensure that they can file 
successfully. Notice is hereby given that the time to file the fourth 
quarter 2002 Electric Quarterly Report is extended to and including 
February 21, 2003.

Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
