[Docket Nos. EL08-87-000; PL09-3-000]


Electric Power Supply Association; Control and Affiliation for 
Purposes of Market-Based Rate Requirements Under Section 205 of the 
Federal Power Act and the Requirements of Section 203 of the Federal 
Power Act; Notice Redocketing Proceeding

November 5, 2008.
    On September 2, 2008, the Electric Power Supply Association (EPSA) 
filed a petition with the Commission requesting guidance with respect 
to the question of when investments in publicly-held companies will be 
deemed to convey ``control'' or to result in ``affiliation'' for 
purposes of the Commission's market-based rate requirements under 
section 205 of the Federal Power Act (FPA) and the requirements of 
section 203 of the FPA. The filing was docketed as EL08-87-000.
    Examination of the filing shows that that EPSA's petition raises 
issues of generic implication to the electric utility industry, and 
thus should have been assigned a PL docket prefix indicating matters of 
general applicability. By this notice, the above-referenced proceeding 
is hereby redocketed as Docket No. PL09-3-000 and Docket No. EL08-87-
000 is hereby terminated. All pleadings filed in Docket No. EL08-87-000 
will also be redocketed in the new docket number, Docket No. PL09-3-
000. As the instant proceeding is matter of general applicability, 
interventions need not be filed.

Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
