SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 7, 2012, Southeastern published a 
Notice in the Federal Register at Vol. 77 FR 13594 that proposed new 
rate schedules to replace the current wholesale power schedules for the 
Georgia-Alabama-South Carolina System for a five-year period from 
October 1, 2012, to September 30, 2017. The Notice outlined a public 
comment process that included a public information and comment forum 
for the Georgia-Alabama-South Carolina customers and interested parties 
which was held in Atlanta, Georgia, on April 24, 2012. Pursuant to 10 
CFR 903.14, the public information process provided that additional 
written comments would be due to Southeastern on or before June 5, 
2012. The Georgia-Alabama-South Carolina customers, through their 
representatives, have requested an extension of the comment period from 
June 5, 2012, to close of business on June 19, 2012. The customers 
state that additional time is needed in order to review the extensive 
materials and information provided and developed at and after the forum 
and to allow sufficient time for such necessary review and preparation 
of informed comments regarding the new proposed rates. For the reasons 
stated above, and as provided for in 10 CFR 903.14, Southeastern hereby 
extends the period for submission of written comments to the close of 
business June 19, 2012.

    Dated: May 31, 2012.
