of administering Part I. The Commission's June 18 Order, among other 
things, introduced a proposed new form to be used in submitting OFA 
costs. 107 FERC ] 61,277.

    The purpose of the instant notice is to issue a revised OFA form, 
as attached. This revised OFA form is posted on the Commission's Web 
site at http://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/hard-filing/ofa/ofa-form.doc.
