Operator, Inc.; Notice of Complaint

306 of the Federal Power Act, 16 U.S.C. 824(e) and 825(e) and Rule 206 
of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) Rules of 
Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.206, Otter Tail Power Company 
(Complainant), filed a formal complaint against Midcontinent 
Independent System Operator, Inc. (Respondent), alleging that the 
Respondent's Open Access Transmission, Energy and Operating Reserve

be taken, but will not serve to make protestants parties to the
