PP5L continues to be a member of the Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland Interconnection (PJM), and also continues to plan and operate its system in accordance with standards accepted by the PJM Management Committee consistent with the reliability principles and practices of the Mid-Atlantic Area Council (MAAC).
Since the Susquehanna SES construction permit antitrust review, which was completed in April,,1972, a number of modifications have been made in the PJM Interconnection Agreement, interconnection Agreements between PJM and other power pools, and the MAAC Agreement. These modifications. are detailed in the documents contained in Appendix A.
(2) Allegheny Electric has experienced no changes in structure, activities, policies, practices or membership of power pools or coordinating groups in which they are a participant.
SUSQUEHANNA SES INFORMATION REQUESTED FOR NRC ANTITRUST REVIEW UESTION 1 c Changes in transmission with respect to (1) the nuclear plant, (2) interconnections, or (3) connections to wholesale customers.
RESPONSE
(1) A description of PP5L's transmission system (PPOL defines transmission voltages as 230 kV and above) was included in Section 8.2 of the FSAR.
Changes in the transmission system associated with the Susquehanna SES since the submission of the construction permit application were discussed in the Environmental Re ort Amendment No. 4 Februa 1976 and Amendment No. 5 Jul 1976 .
In January, 1978, PP5L finalized an agreement with Allegheny Electric Cooperative, Inc. (AE) for the sale of a 10't undivided interest in the Susquehanna SES. Concurrently, PPgL and AE entered into an agreement whereby AE shall solely own a specific continuous section of the Susquehanna-Sunbury 500 kV line comprising approximately 95>o of the total line and a one-third undivided interest in the right-of-way on which AE's section of the line will be constrUcted. The remainder of the line and'right-of-way will be owned by PP5L. AE's section of the line will be constructed, maintained and operated by PP6L as agent for AE.
(2) PP5L's transmission system, including the interconnections with adjoining systems, is shown in Figure 8.2-3 of the FSAR. This figure reflects changes that have occurred since the PSAR ~see PSAR Amendment 2, Response to Question 8, map entitled, "Proposed Major Transmission System, Summer-1971") was submitted. None of these changes is significant with respect to PP5L's dealings with adjoining utilities.
There have been no changes in the interconnection arrangements for AE since its purchase of the 10'4 interest in Susquehanna SES.
(3) There have been no changes with respect to transmission connections to wholesale customers for either PP5L or AE.
SUSQUEHANNA SES INFORMATION REQUESTED FOR NRC ANTITRUST REVIEW UESTION 1 d Changes in the ownership or contractual allocation. of the output of the nuclear facility. Reasons and basis for such changes should be included.
RESPONSE
In January of 1978, the Pennsylvania Power 5 Light Company (PP5L) finalized'n agreement with Allegheny Electric Cooperative, Inc. (AE) for the sale of a 10< undivided interest in the two-unit (1050 MW/unit) Susquehanna Steam Electric Station (Susquehanna SES) according to the schedule below:
Ownership Percent PPOL 90 1890 AE 10 210 Total 1~00 2100 Under the terms of the agreement, the two parties are owners as tenants in common. PPPL, however, has the sole responsibility for planning, licensing, design, construction, testing, operation and maintenance of Susquehanna SES.
Through the AE's participation in Susquehanna SES, PP5L has reduced its financing burden by about $ 200 million. Wi'thout such participation, PPOL would have to sell an additional $ 200 million of its securities when its needs for outside financing are at an all time high. For example, PP5L's 1977-1979 construction program is expected to require the expenditure of
$ 1.3 billion with about three-quarters of this expected to be obtained from outside financing. In addition, about $ 25 million of maturing long-term debt obligations and $ 14 million of preferred and preference stock sinking fund requrements are planned to be met during 1977-1979 by sales of securities.

RESPONSE
(1) On December 29, 1975, in compliance with FPC Order No. 517, PP5L submitted a modification to its fuel adjustment clause applicable to its fifteen resale customers. Essentially, the change altered the clause from one which tracked fuel costs to one which tracked energy costs'y order at Docket No. ER 76-398, after a period of suspension, the FPC permitted the modification subject to refund to become effective March 15, 1976. Resale customers were permitted to intervene and hearings were held. The initial decision by the Administrative Law Judge was issued March 14, 1977, finding that PP5L's proposed modification to the clause to be just, reasonable and otherwise lawful. Briefs were filed by staff, intervenors and PP5L. To date, no further action has been taken.
There have been no other material changes in the design, provisions or conditions of PP5L rate schedules.

RESPONSE
(1) On November 22, 1977, a contract was signed between PP5L and UGI Corporation to supply its Luzerne Electric Division with any needed electric requirements above that of their generating capacity. This arrangement extends to 1986 with diminishing supply thereafter to terminate in 1989.
The status of the Borough of Hatfield changed from a partial requirements to a full requirements customer on April 23, 1977.
(2) On May 26, 1978, the Borough of Mifflinburg, served=by PPOL, elected to change the delivery voltage from 12,000 volts to 66,000 volts.
At the time 66,000 volt service was established, the customer was transferred from the rate applicable to 12,000 volt service to that applicable to 66,000 volt service. Copies of PP5L's rate schedules applicable to the 12,000 and 66,000 volt service are attached.
(3) There have been no changes in PP5L's service area.
(4) On December 31, 1976, PPOL acquired all the outstanding stock of Hershey Electric Company (HEC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hershey Estates. The acquisition of the capital stock and the repayment of all debts owned by Hersehy Electric approximated $ 7.9 million.
Hershey Electric Company is vested with lawful authority to supply and is supplying to the public electric, light, heat and power service in a 28-square mile territory in and around Hershey, Pennsylvania. At the time of acquisition, Hershey Electric Company had about 5,000 customers and operating revenue from the calendar year 1975 of
$ 8,690,000 and net income of $ 358,000. Hershey Electric Company presently operates as a wholly-owned electric distribution subsidiary of PP4L and it is intended to be merged into PP5L when the construction of the necessary tie-lines is complete.
Hershey Electric Company, having no generation capacity of its own, continues to purchase all of its requirements for electric power from Metropolitan Edison Company, a subsidiary company of General Public Utilities Corporation.

SUSQUEHANNA SES INFORMATION REQUESTED FOR NRC ANTITRUST REVIEW UESTION 1 List of those generating capacity additions committed for operation after the nucelar facility including ownership rights or power output allocations.
RESPONSE
(1) PP5L currently has no generating capacity additions committed for operation after the Susquehanna units are in-service. There is, however, the potential that PP5L's share of the Safe Harbor hydroelectric plant could be increased by 63 MW sometime after the Susquehanna units are in-service. PP5L owns one-third of the capital stock of Safe Harbor Water Power Corporation which holds a major project license for the operation of the Safe Harbor plant (230 MW) and is currently entitled to one-third of it's capacity (76 MW).
The 63 MW increase in capacity noted above is based on recent study results that indicate the feasibility of expanding the Safe Harbor plant from 230 MW to 417 MW by the addition of hydroelectric units into the five existing bays of the original p'ower house structure.
The current SO-year license for Safe Harbor expires on April 22, 1980.
In April, 1978, the Safe Harbor Water Power Corporation submitted an application to the Federal Power Commission, now known as the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission .(FERC) for a renewed 50-year operating license including installation of the five additional units. The final decision on whether any additions will be made is dependent upon receiving a new long-term license from FERC for the entire Safe Harbor generating station.
(2) AE's future capacity additions are discussed in EROLS Section l.la.

RESPONSE
In September 1975, the Borough of Lansdale requested PP5L to submit a proposal to supply the electrical requirements to the Borough of Lansdale. An outline of the proposal was submitted to the Borough in April of 1977 with discussions thereafter. At this time, there are no active discussions taking place, and the Borough continues to be served by Philadelphia Electric Co. In August 1978, the Borough requested discussions with regard to a wheeling service by PPOL; these discussions are expected to take place in the near future.
In response to an inquiry in November 1975 from the Borough of Kutztown, PPOL made an offer to supply the total power requirement of the Borough for resale service at 66,000 volts. The Borough elected to continue to purchase its power needs from Metropolitan Edison Company.
In December 1975, Allegheny Electric Cooperative, Inc. requested that PP5L review the possibility of providing 66,000 volt service to a proposed substation of the Tri-County REC of Mansfield, Pennsylvania.
Subsequently, service was requested at 12 kV. Tentative terms have been given for providing 12,000 volt service to Tri-County.
In May 1978, Allegheny Electric Cooperative requested PPOL to prepare a proposal to supply 12,000 volt service to Sullivan County REC. At this time, PP5L is preparing a response to Sullivan County REC outlining the terms and conditions for service.
In June 1978, the Borough of Perkasie, a resale customer being served at 12,000 volts, requested PP4L to investigate serving the Borough at 66,000 volts. This request is presently being evaluated.
In September 1977, the General Public Utilities Corporation expressed an interest in purchasing capacity in amounts up to 500 MW and associated energy from PPfL'.s Susquehanna SES for the period June 1981 through May 1984. Negotiations are underway.
In February 1978, the City of Vineland (New Jersey) expressed an interest in purchasing capacity in amounts up to 30 MW and associated energy from PP5L's generating stations beginning in 1983 and continuing for an undefined period or purchasing an ownership interest in PPOL's genexating stations. PPgL responded that an ownership
SUSQUEHANNA SES INFORMATION REQUESTED FOR NRC ANTITRUST REVIEW interest in Martins Creek SES Units 83 5 t4 and from Susquehanna SES could be considered. The City of Vineland then expressed interest in purchasing 'an ownership interest in Susquehanna SES or purchasing capacity and associated energy from Susquehanna SES. Negotiations are underway.
In January 1978, the Atlantic City Electric Company expressed an interest in purchasing from PPgL's generating station capacity and associated energy in the amount of about 100 MW in 1983 and increasing thereafter for an undefined period or purchasing an ownership interest in PP4L's generating stations. PP5L responded that an ownership interest in Susquehanna SES or firm purchases of capacity and associated energy from Martins Creek SES Units t3 and 84 and from Susquehanna SES could be considered. Negotiations are underway.
(2) Southern Maryland Electric Cooperative, Inc. (SMECO) has recently requested information from AE on the possibility of joint ownership in future generating facilities. Further discussions on this request are planned.

SUSQUEHANNA SES INFORMATION REQUESTED FOR NRC ANTITRUST REVIEW UESTION 1 List of those generating capacity additions committed for operation after the nucelar facility including ownership rights or power output allocations.
RESPONSE
(1) PP5L currently has no generating capacity additions committed for operation after the Susquehanna units are in-service. There is, however, the potential that PP5L's share of the Safe Harbor hydroelectric plant could be increased by 63 MW sometime after the Susquehanna units are in-service. PP5L owns one-third of the capital stock of Safe Harbor Water Power Corporation which holds a major project license for the operation of the Safe Harbor plant (230 MW) and is currently entitled to one-third of it's capacity (76 MW).
The 63 MW increase in capacity noted above is based on recent study results that indicate the feasibility of expanding the Safe Harbor plant from 230 MW to 417 MW by the addition of hydroelectric units into the five existing bays of the original p'ower house structure.
The current 50-year license for Safe Harbor expires on April 22, 1980.
In April, 1978, the Safe Harbor Water Power Corporation submitted an application to the Federal Power Commission, now known as the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission .(FERC) for a renewed 50-year operating license including installation of the five additional units. The final decision on whether any additions will be made is dependent upon receiving a new long-term license from FERC for the entire Safe Harbor generating station.
(2) AE's future capacity additions are discussed in EROLS Section l.la.
SUSQUEHANNA SES INFORMATION REQUESTED FOR NRC ANTITRUST. REVIEW UESTION 1 h Summary of requests or indications of interest by other electric power wholesale or retail distributors, and licensee's response, for any type of electric service or cooperative venture or study.
RESPONSE
In September 1975, the Borough of Lansdale requested PP5L to submit a proposal to supply the electrical requirements to the Borough of Lansdale. An outline of the proposal was submitted to the Borough in April of 1977 with discussions thereafter. At this time, there are no active discussions taking place, and the Borough continues to be served by Philadelphia Electric Co. In August 1978, the Borough requested discussions with regard to a wheeling service by PP5L; these discussions are expected to take place in the near future.
In response to an inquiry in November 1975 from the Borough of Kutztown, PP5L made an offer to supply the total power requirement of the Borough for resale service at 66,000 volts. The Borough elected to continue to purchase its power needs from Metropolitan Edison Company.
In December 1975, Allegheny Electric Cooperative, Inc. requested that PPOL review the possibility of providing 66,000 volt service to a proposed substation of the Tri-County REC of Mansfield, Pennsylvania.
Subsequently, service was requested at 12 kV. Tentative terms have been given for providing 12,000 volt service to Tri-County.
In May 1978, Allegheny Electric Cooperative requested PP5L to prepare a proposal to supply 12,000 volt service to Sullivan County REC. At this time, PP5L is preparing a response to Sullivan County REC outlining the terms and conditions for service.
In June 1978, the Borough of Perkasie, a resale customer being served at 12,000 volts, requested PPpL to investigate serving the Borough at 66,000 volts. This request is presently being evaluated.
In September 1977, the General Public Utilities Corporation expressed an interest in'urchasing capacity in amounts up to 500 MW and associated energy from PPPL'.s Susquehanna SES for the period June 1981 through May 1984. Negotiations are underway.
In February 1978, the City of Vineland (New Jersey) expressed an interest in purchasing capacity in amounts up to 30 MW and associated energy from PP4L's generating stations beginning in 1983 and continuing for an undefined period or purchasing an ownership interest in PPOL's generating stations. PPgL responded that an ownership

The City of Vineland then expressed interest in purchasing hn ownership interest in Susquehanna SES or purchasing capacity and associated energy from Susquehanna SES. Negotiations are underwayo In January 1978, the Atlantic City Electric Company expressed an interest in purchasing from PP5L's generating station capacity and associated energy in the amount of about 100 MW in 1983 and increasing thereafter for an undefined period or purchasing an ownership interest in PPgL's generating stations. PP5L responded that an ownership interest in Susquehanna SES or firm purchases of capacity and associated energy from Martins Creek SES Units 83 and ft4 and from Susquehanna SES could be considered. Negotiations are underway.
(2) Southern Maryland Electric Cooperative, Inc. (SMECO) has recently requested information from AE on the possibility of joint ownership in future generating facilities. Further discussions on this request are planned.

All of t)te Parti s to the Agreement have received copies of this filing which is made on behalf of such Parties by the undersigned in accordance with the author'.zation contained in Section 5.6 of the Agreement. The fo?.lowing documents are submitted herewith in connection with this filing:
- 1) Six (6) copies of .this letter.

- 5) Six (6) copies of a form of Notice of Agreement suitable for publication in the Federal Register.
- 6) A check covering the required filing fee.
The revisions contained in the Supplemental Agreement and the revised and new schedules are proposed: (1) to clarify the wording of the Agreement, (2) to bring it into closer conformity with other'agreements,-(3) to delete provisions which are no longer required, (4) to increase certain charges to a more equitable basis or to more nearly cover present costs of service, and (5) to provide for charges for new services and services involving third Parties. The reasons for the several changes involving pricing are more specifically described as follows:
Extended Emer encv Service - Proposed Schedule, 5.02 provides that, under certain specified conditions, an additional charge of $ 0.035 per kiloOatt per day, or alternatively, when the service is not provided directly but from third Parties, a charge of $ 0.021 per kilowatt per day, be applied in connection with the supply of emergency service. The $ 0.035 represents about half of a reasonable fixed charge for installed capacity service, i.e., about half of the fixed charge for Short Term Power
($ 0.50 per kilowatt per week is equivalent to $ 0.071 per kilowatt per day). The Extended Emergency Service is to be supplied when it is not possible or not appropriate to arrange for a Short Term Power Transaction. Because the added charge is applied automatically and for short periods and results from the mutual assistance that one Party provides for the other, it is appropriate that the rate be at a level less than the full capacity charge (approximately 50/. of th'e full capacity'charge).
Short Term Power - The rate for Short Term Power that is provided in Schedule 7.02 is increased and the conditions of supply are more" completely defined. The increase is to bring the price in line with present costs and other agreements of both Parties.
The better definition'f the service conditions is necessary be placed on such transactions and if if greater reliance is to they are to be effectively used in reducing the overall costs of providing capacity. The present Agreement provides for a charge of
$ 0.06 per kilowatt per day; based on a 5-day week this is equivalent to $ 0.30 per kilowatt per week. The revision increases this charge to $ 0.50 (based on a 6-day week);
it also provides that a charge of $ 0.125 per kilowatt per week be applied when the Short Term Power is delivered by either Party to or from another area.
There were no Short Term Power transactions between VEPCo and the PJM Grou:>
during the twelve months immediately preceding the date on which the proposed increase in rate pro"ided in Schedule 7.02 is to become effective. IIence, no comparison of revenues is possible. Rates are proposed for new services including Extended Emergency Service, and delivery of Short Term Power or Extended Em"rgency Service by either Party to or from a third Party. Because of the uncertainty of the needs of either Party or others for the services provided for, predict the transact.',ons and revenues und'er the proposed it is impossible to schedules.
The proposed rates for Short Term Power are sImilar to rates previously fi'.ed by VEPCo and the PJM Group under agreements with othe .s, and the proposed rates for Extended Emergency Service are similar to rates previously filed by the PJM Group in interconnection agreements with The Cleveland Electric Illuminat'ing Company, th '.
Allegheny Power System Group and the New York Power Pool except that in the lat:er agreement the service was identified as "Supplemental Operating Capacity". Sup port for the several proposed rates is provided in the enclosed statement.
No facilities 'are required to be installed or modified in order to provide the services covered by the proposed revisions.
Copies of this letter and all enclosures will be furnished promptly to the Regulatory Commissions of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, North Carolina, West Virginia and the District of Columbia for their information.
A check in the amount of $ 1,300 is enclosed to cover the filing fee in accordance with the Commission's Regulations determined as follows: $ 500 for a moderately complex Rate Schedule for one Party pursuant to Section 36.2(f) and
$ 100 for each additional submittal for each of the other Parties to the Agreement pursuant to Section 36.2(e).

This Schedule 9.01 is one
'uch additional Schedule.
The Parties recognize that from time to time occasions may arise when it may be impracticable to arrange Economy Energy transactions as provided for under Section 2 of Schedule 4.02 and at the same time one Party may have electric energy
("Other Energy" ) which it is willing to make available from its own system or from sources outside its own system, or both, that can be utilized advantageously for short intervals by the other Party. Either Party may schedule Other Energy from the other Party whenever, in the sole judgment of the Party requested to supply the same, such energy is available. Prior to each delivery of Other Energy, the'amount and time of delivex'y shall be detexmined by the Pa> ties.
Other Energy supplied by one Party shall be charged to,and paid for by the other Party on the basis of the cost of genexating it and the amount paid for i".
to such systems not a Pax ty to this Agreement, all adjusted for transmission lo>>ses,

VEPCo-PJH INTERCONNECTION AGREENENT Summar of Schedule Revisions and Addi.tions Schedule Present Schedules 1.01, 2.01 and 3.01 are deleted-4.02 Present Schedule 4.01 covers OPERATING CAPACITY TRANSACTIONS and the revised Schedule covers ECONO>1Y OPERATING CAPACITY AND ENERGY 'TRANSACTIONS.
5.02 Present .Schedule 5.01 covers ENERGY TRANSACTIONS and the revised Schedule covers EHERGENCY OPERATING CAPACITY AND ENERGY TRANSACTIONS ~
4.02 & The texts of present Schedules 4.01 and 5.01 have been rearranged
- 5. 02 to form the revised Schedules covering economy and emergency interchange, respectively; and that part of 5.01 which dealt with Inadvertent Inter-change is now included in revised Schedule 6.02. Revised Schedule 5.02 also includes provisions for additional fixed service charges for "Extended Emergency Service" which replace the provision in the present Schedule 4.01 for an additional charge applied to Emergency Operating Capacity.
- 6. 02 Present Schedule 6.01 has been rearianged with new subheadings, and the text on Inadvertent Interchange now in present Schedule 5.01 and a new section on Control of Kilovar Exchange are added.
7.02 The obligations involved in Sl>ort Term Power transactions under present Schedule 7.01 have been clarified; the demand rate applicablu to the amount of reserved power is increased; a charge fo'r services involving third parties applicable under certain conditions is inclu led, and the provision for a "Reactivation and Deactivation Charge" is de;eted.
9.01 This is a new Schedule covering Otner Energy Transactions.
VEPCo-P JH INTERCONNECTION AGREE>IENT STATE))ENT OF THE BASIS OF THE FIXED RATES FOR EXTENDED ENERGENCY AND SHORT TER)) PONER SERVICES AND SUPPORTING CO".1PUTATIONS The fixed rates for Extended Emergency and Short Term Power services specified in the proposed Schedules to the VEPCo-PJH Interconnection Agreement can be supported on a cost basis. These rates are:
- 1. The additional capacity charge of $ 0.035 per kilowatt per day specified in Schedule 5.02 and associated with the supply of Extended Emergency Service; and
- 2. The capacity charge of $ 0.50 per kilowatt per week specified in Schedule 7.02, Section 2.11 and associated with the supply of Short Term Power; and
- 3. The charge related to the delivery to or from third parties of certain capacity services of $ 0.021 per kilowatt per day specified in 5.02 and $ 0.125 per kilowatt per week specified in Schedule 7.02.
CAPACITY CHARGE IN SCHEDULE'5.02 The $ 0.035 per KM-day is a negotiated rate, intended to compensate the suppliers of Extended Emergency Service for some part of their fixed costs for investment in generating and transmission facilities. Out-of-pocket or variable costs are other-wise provided for in the charges for operating capacity and energy.
In the determination of the rate,'it was recognized that it should be less than (approximately half of) the full capacity cost as determined for Short Term Power on the premise that the supply of Extended Emergency Service is for short periods of time, does not constitute a firm capacity transaction, and results from the mutual assistance that one Party provides for the other.
CAPACITY CHARGE IN SCHEDULE 7.02 The $ 0.50 per KW-week is a negotiated rate intended to compensate the supplier of Short Term Power for full fixed annual costs for investment in generating and ransmission facilities, prorated for the period of the reservation, on the basis that Short Term Power is available capacity reserved by the supplying system for the deficient system for periods of one or more weeks and constitutes a firm capacity transaction. Out-of-pocket or variable ccsts are otherwise provided fo" in the charges for Short Term Operating Capacity er d Short Term Energy.
DELIVERY CHARGES IN SCHEDULES 5.02 AND 7.02 t The charge for. delivery of capa'city to or fron a third party is also a
- negotiated rate that is less than the full cost, b-sed on average transmission investment per unit of system peak load.

SUPPORTING COMPUTATIONS - PJM BASIS PJM costs necessarily represent a composite of various company costs, based on different capitalizations, different service lives, different methods of tax accounting, and different state and local tax obligations. On a representative basis, however, the PJM costs are above the amounts necessary to support the proposed rates. Consequently, the compromises involved in the determination of estimated costs on a PJM basis are not of critical importance. For further explanat:ion of computations, see notes which folio'w on next page.

SCHEDULE 8 01
'O INTERCONNECTION AGREEMENT BETWEEN VEPCO AND TILE PJM GROUP Issued , March 27, 1974 Effective January 1, 1974 FUEL CONSERVATION ENERGY Section 1.8 of this Agreement provi.des that VEPCO and the PJH Group shall set forth in additional schedules the arrangements for 'specific services to be rendered in furtherance of the intent of this Agreement. This Schedule 8.01 has been agreed to by the parties in accordance therewith.
Fuel Conservation Energy shall be considered to be electric energy that is t
If scheduled between the Parties during off-peak hours as defined in this Schedule, solely for the purpose of conserving fuel inventories. The following are the terms and conditions governing the generation and supply of such energy by one Party for the other, and also the transmission of Fuel Conservation Energy to and from systems interconnected with VEPCO or the PJM Group.
Section 1 Services ti~ be Rendered 1 1 Either Part'~ may arrange to obtain such Fuel Conservation Energy from the other whenever, in its sole judgment, the Party requested to supply the same has the capability and the fuel resources to make such energy available 1 ll. At the beginning of each week, upon request of the receiving party, the supplying pat:ty will furnish the receiving party a tentative'schedule of hourly energy deliveries. Prior to each hour, the dispatcher in the receiving system will notify the dispatcher in the supplying system of the amount
of Fuel Conservation Energy the receiving system 1
desires The dispatcher in the supplying system I
will res'pbnd by stating the amount of Fuel Conser-vation Energy to be made available in the next.
hour, and the estimated cost. thereof, for energy generated on his own system. The dispatcher for the supplying system will also provide, as available, the same information for energy supplied by a third party The dispatcher for the receiving party shall either accept or reject delivery, or accept a smaller amount of energy than that available.
1 12 If such energy is supplied from the supplying party' system, it may be reduced when during such period conditions arise that could not have been reasonably forseen and cause the supply of the energy to be burdensome to the supplying party's system. If the energy is transmitted by the supplying party from another system, it may be reduced (1) when and to the extent reduced by such other system or (2) when during such period conditions arise that could not have been reasonably foreseen and that cause the tran~mission of the energy to be burdensome to the supplying party's system, or (3) when a transmission or ot.her limitation in the system 'of the receiving part) or another system (other than the receiving part) ) interconnected directly or indirectly with the system of the receiving or supplying party makes it irrpractical, as a technical mat.,ter, to receive or deliver such energy The supply or transmission of
&3 W the energy shall be con'sidered burdensome if continuation would jeopardize service to firm 1
customers on the supplying party's system.
1.13 For the purpose of this Schedule, off-peak hours shall be defined to be between the hours of 10:00 p.'m.
and 7:00 a.m. Eastern Standard Time or Eastern Daylight
.Saving Time (whichever Time is in legal force on the system of the supplying Group) on any day other than Sunday, and during any hour on Sunday.
Section 2 Com ensation 2 1 The receiving party shall pay the supplying party for each kilowatthour of Fuel Conservation Energy supplied from the supplying party' system an amount equal to 110% of the out-of-pocket replacement cost of generating such energy plus three mills per kilowatthour.
2 2 The receiving party shall pay the supplying party for each kilowatthour of Fuel Conservation Energy purchased by the supplying party from another system the amount paid therefor by the supplying party plus 1 75 mills per kilowatthour.
2 3, For purposes of this Schedule, out-of-pocket replacement cost of supplying Fuel Conservation Energy shall mean out-of-pocket cost of generating such energy plus or minus .m adjustment (to be made by sup'plemental bill) to reflect increases or. decreases in the cost of fuel on a Btu basis between the average cost of fuel at the stations from which the energy was d .livered during the month in which the energy was delivered and th average cost of purchased
\
fuel for these stations for the second m>nth after such month of delivery.
Section 3 - Billin s and Payments All bills for'mounts=owe'd by one party to the other shall be due and payable on the first banking day common to both parties following the nineteenth day of the
'onth in which they are rendered, or on the fifteenth day following receipt 'of bill, whichever date be later. Interest on unpaid amounts shall accrue at,ten p'ercent (10/
per annum from the date due until the date upon which payment is made. Unless other-.j'ise agreed upon a calendar month shall be the standard monthly period for the
) purpose of settlements under this agreement.
Section 4 - Termination This Schedule shall remain in effect for one year unless extended by mutual agreement of the parties.

WITNESS ETH:
WHEREAS, the signatories hereto are either signatories or associated in operation with signatories to an agreement, dated September 26, 1956, as amended and supplemented, known as the Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland Interconnection Agreeme'nt (PJM Agreement); and ~
WHEREAS, the signatories hereto are all among the signatorie's in the Mid-Atlantic Area Coordination Agreement (MAAC Agreement), dated April 23, 1971; WHEREAS, the signatories hereto own and operate fully interconnected elec-tric supply systems, and the planning and operations of the bu]k power supply facil-ities of such systems are coordinated pursuant to various agreements, including both the PJM Agreement and the MAAC Agreement; and 7/HEREAS, current conditions involving fuel availability demand the prompt development of all possible measures for fuel conservation; and WHEREAS, by Order No. 496, issued November 29, 1973, the Federal
'Power Commission (FPC) has determined that'he regulatory and policy guidance of that Commission, state public service commissions,.governors and other Fed-eral, state or local officials should be invoked to achieve all possible reductions by ultimate consumers in the use of electric power and energy for residential, commercial, industrial, transportation or other uses consistent with human health, "safety and public welfare needs; and II VfHEREAS, each signatory hereto is a public utility subject to the jurisdic-tion of the FPC and under orders and regulations of that Commission is requested to e'ffect all possible savings in the consumption of energy and to advise the Com-
~ission of the specific steps undertaken to effect such reductions in the consump-tron of electrxc power and energy, and VQIERZAS, by virtue of the PJM and MAAC Agreements each signatory hereto relies on the bulk power apply systems of the other signatories hereto in providing adequate and reliable service to its customers; and VfHEREAS, the coordinated planning and operations under the PJM and MAAC Agreements.and the resulting reliance of each signatory on the others re-quires that the steps to effect reductions in the consumption of electric energy be taken on a coordinated basis in order to best serve the interests of all our custom-ers and to minimize impact on the adequacy and reliability of service, and lVHEREAS,. policies and procedures should be established for conserving energy and for coordinating any reductions in energy use made necessary by in-adequate supplies of fuel; NOAV, THEREFORE, the signatories hereto agree as follows:
SECTION 1 It is the policy of the signatories hereto and of PJM to operate on a one- ~
system basis, utilizing available fuel resources to produce electrical energy to supply the loads of all PJM signatories and associated systems, regardless of any such individual system s fuel or eriergy availability, under the principl'e of economic dispatch within constraints of reliability and fuel availability.
SECTION 2 To conserve energy and to permit the substitution of a more abundant fuel for one that is in short supply," measures shall be taken from time to time, as di-rected by the Management Committee established under the PJM Agreement, which t may affect the supply of electric energy to customers.
will be related generally The extent of these measures to the availability of fuel in storage or expected from cur-rent deliveries. As available fuel suppli.'es diminish, conservation of energy re-sources shall be accomplished initially by voltage reductions and by voluntary cus-to'mer reductions in energy u'se. If further reductions in energy use are required by r
continuing decreases in the availability of fuel, the steps to be taken in the reductions in energy use program shall be as set forth in Schedule 1 attacQed hereto and made a part of this Agreement.
SECTION 3
~ Under present conditions and without regard to the amount of fuel available, certain departures from normal operating procedures, which have an acceptable impact on reliability and economy, shall be made effective. These include, but are not limited to:
(a) Rescheduling of maintenance, to permit best use of coal-fired generation during the winter period, even though some mainte-nance must be done during a possibly high load period of summer.
(b) Maximum practicable use of PJM coal-fired generation and of pur-chases of coal-fixed generation from other arias, even when this is not in accord with economic dispatch.
(c) Opening of limiting transmission lines and increases in trans-mission line ratings, based on temperature, to avoid operation of capacity with limited fuel availability that would otherwise be required to control line loadings.
.r
~ '~(d) .Reduction of the spinning component of the PZM operating re-serve requirement, to avoid operation of capacity with limited fuel availability so long as quick-starting units are available for operation.
. (c) Reliance on manual tripping of pump storage hydro units, operat-
'ng as pumps, to limit use of capacity with limited fuel availability that otherwise would be required to control line loadings following a contingency.
SECTION 4 Each signatory hereto shall promptly confer. with the appropriate Govern-.
mental agencies with respect to the implementation of the reductions in energy use I
program that may be made necessary by the unavailability of adequate fuel supplies.
SECTION 5 Each signatory shall establish procedures. for informing its customers of the
need for energy conservation and of the steps to be taken in carrying out the re-r auctions in energy use program, and shall file with the appropriate regulatory authorities its p)an to terminate or suspend service for violation of lawful orders
'I to curtail the use of service.
SECTION' Any energy or operating capacity transactions that may be required by or among the signatories hereto as a result of their actions to conserve energy shall be carried out under the provisions of existing agreements, including the -PZM Agreement, agreements of PZM with others, and separate agreements among two or more of the signatories hereto.
SECTION 7 This Agreement is subject to compliance with the applicable requirements
~
of all regulatory authorities havin jurisdiction in the premises.
SECTION 8 No signatory shall be liable for the failure of any other signatory to perform its obligations hereunder.
SECTION 9 4
C Any waiver of the rights of any signat'ory as to any default of any other sig-natory or any other matter arising hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver as to any other default or other matter arising hereunder.

Attention: Mr. Kenneth F. Plumb, Secretary Gentlemen:
There is filed herewith, on behalf of the following listed companies, proposed Schedule 7.03, Revision No. 1 and proposed Schedule 5.04 modifying the original Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland Interconnection (PJM) Agreement as heretofore amended and supplemented, which is on file with the Commission and is ident'ified by the Rate Schedule designation shown for each. listed company.
Rate Schedule Public Service Electric and Gas Company FPC No. 23 Philadelphia Electric Company 21 Pennsylvania Power & Light Company 21 Baltimore Gas and Electric Company 9 Jersey Central Power & Light Company 7 Metropolitan Edison Company 7 Pennsylvania Electric Company 24 Potomac Electric Power Company . 19 All of the above listed parties to the PJM Agreement have received copies of and have approved this filing which is made on behalf of such parties by the under-signed in accordance with the authorization contained in Section 3.3 (vi) of the PJM Agreement.
The following documents are submitted herewith in connection with this filing:
- 1) Six (6) copies of this letter;')
Twenty-two (22) copies of proposed Schedule 7.03, Revision No. 1;
- 3) Twenty-two (22) copies of proposed Schedule.5.04;
- 4) Six (6) copies of a form of 'Notice of Application suitable for publication in the Federal Register;

I The proposed schedules provide for the sharing among the PJM companies of amounts paid or received by PJM for generating and/or transmitting Conservation Energy, as defined in agreements with others. Therefore, the proposed schedules are being filed concurrently with new Conservation Energy schedules. of the APS-PJM and NYPF<PJM Agreements. An effective date of Janua'ry 1, 1978 has been requested for the latter schedules because transactions to conserve coal may be needed by that date. Consequently, the proposed schedules filed herewith should be effective on the same date to provide the accounting procedures internal to PJM for Conservation ~
Energy transactions with others. Therefore it is respectfully submitted that good cause exists for waiver of notice of requirements and the Commission is hereby requested, pursuant to Section 35.11 of its Regulations, to .waive notice of require-ments and order the proposed Schedule 7.03, Revi.sion 1 and proposed Schedule 5.04 to be effective as of January 1, 1978.
I Proposed Schedule 7.03, Revision 1, which will supercede Schedule 7.03, is not intended to and will not change current allocation procedures of existing Schedules.'he Schedule, as revised, provides for the internal allocation of Conservation Energy received or delivered and the payments and charges associated with the generation of such energy. When PJM generates Conservation Energy for others, the supplying com-panies will be identified and credited for the energy supplied using the same method as currently in effect under Schedule 7.03(e), except, special provision is made to account for supplemental charges for the replacement cost of fuel. Such special
"'rovision is required due to the retroactive nature of such charges. Conservation Energy received by PJM will be allocated internally to those companies whose generation is curtailed to conserve energy, but only if that company is receiving energy that hour and then only to the extent of such receipt Any remaining Con-servation Energy would then be allocated among all remaining receiving companies.
Such energy received will be accounted for using the same method as currently in effect under Schedule 7.03(d) except, special provision is made to account for any supplemental bills from others to adjust for the suppliers'ut<<'of-pocket cost of replacement fuel, due to the retroactive nature of such bi.lls.
Proposed new Schedule 5.04 provides for the allocation of the fixed charge for generation service (3.75 mills/kwh for PJM) and the fixed charge, for transmission service (1.75 mills/kwh for PJM). When PJM is generating or receiving Conservation Energy, the associated fixed charges will be allocated in the same manner as presently provided in Schedule 5.02 for fixed charges associated with Extended Emergency and Supplemental Operating Capacity. transactions between PJM and others. 'hen PJM is transmitting Conservation Energy i:t is proposed to allocate the fixed charge for transmission service in proportion to the components comprising the basis for the charge as follows:
'C Corn onents of Service Char e*
mills/kwh '7, of total 1
(a) Transmission investment 1.22 577. In accordance with Schedule 5.03 which allocates payments to PJM for transmission services.

(b) Administrative expense ~ 25 12' In accordance with Schedule 9.01 which 7L allocates the expenses of the Office of the PJM Interconnection (c) Transmission losses .66 317. . Based on computer load flow analyses, one-third of the additional losses will be on the 500 KV system and will be allocated in accordance with Schedule I 12.03 of the EHV Agreement which allocates losses on the 500 KV system.
The balance of the additional losses will be on lower voltage lines and C
will be allocated in proportion to the change in losses for each PJH company determined by computer load flow analysis for typi'cal transfers of conservation energy. s
~
In response to Section 35.13(b) of the Commission's Regulations, it is pointed out that because of the uncertainty of the duration of the .coal miner's strike or other events which might determine the need for Conservation Energy transfers and because of variable operating restrictions in'the event the transfers are required, estimates of the charges and payments to be allocated under the proposed Schedules have not been made. To the extent that Section 35.13(b)(1) of the Commission's Regulations is deemed applicable to this filing, waiver of that regulation is requested based on the foregoing.
Copies of this letter and all enclosures will be furnished promptly to the Regulatory Commissions of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia and the District of Columbia for their infoxmation.
A check in the amount of $ 800 is 'enclosed pursuant to Section 36.2(e) of the Commission's Regulations to cover the filing fee determined as follows: $ 100 for a nominal rate schedule for one party', and $ 100 for each additional submittal for each of the other parties to the'PJM Agxeement.

SCHEDULE 7.03 REVISION NO. 1 (Supersedes Initial Schedule Issued June 15, 1977)
Issued: December 12, 1977 Effective:
ACCOUNTING FOR INTERCHANGE OF ENERGY'ITH OTHERS (a) Accounting among the Part'.. " Hereto for the interchange of scheduled and 4
inadvertent energy between THE INTERCONNECTION and others not party to the AGREEMENT shall be made in accordance with this schedule.
SCHEDULED INTERCHANGE I
(b) Except as provided in (c), (d), and (e), when scheduled energy is received by THE INTERCONNECTION from others, the amount and value of avoided gen ration of each Party Hereto shall be determined each hour by the Office of THE INTERCONNECTION based on the ascending order of unit operating costs provided by the Parties Hereto. Each Party Hereto whose generation was avoided shall be debited for the amount of such avoided generation at a rate per kilowatth'our halfway between its value of avoided generation per kilowatthour and the average billing rate paid by THE INTERCONNECTION for the energy scheduled to be received during that hour, but in no event shall such debit exceed its value. The information provided under Schedule 7.01(a) by each Party Hereto whose generation was avoided shall be ad]usted by the amount and value of its avoided generation, to reflect the receipt of such energy from others.
(c) Prior to the pumping cycle in the operation of pumped storage hydro plants of the Parties Hereto, the Office of THE ItlTERCONNECTION shall determine for each plant a pumping cutoff rate defined as the generation rate per kilowatt-hour on THE INTERCONNECTION at which pumping shall be reduced or discontinued because energy generated above that rate for pumping would provide uneconomical I I
Page 2 of 5 energy during the generating cycle. During .any hour in which economy
~ i energy is received by THE INTERCONNECTION from others and the amount of energy utilized by the Parties Hereto for pumping exceeds the amount that could have been generated on THE INTERCONNECTION at or below the pumping cutoff rate, such amount of excess shall be considered avoided generation valued at the pumping cutoff rate in determining the value of avoided generation in (b).
(d) When scheduled energy 1's received by THE INTERCONNECTION from others, any part of which is Emergency, Supplemental or Short Ter:n energy, as defined in agreements between the Parties Hereto and others, the amount of'uch part shall be allocated each hour by the Office of THE INTER-CONNECTION among the Parties Hereto in proportion to their respective energy receipts as reported under Schedule 7.01(a) for which they cannot provide replacement values (including pumping energy receipts, if any).
The corresponding value of such energy to each Party Hereto shall be determined by the Office of THE INTERCONNECTION as the average cost to generate such energy by others, increased by 207.. Each Party Hereto who received an allocated share of such energy shall be debited for the amount of its share at a rate per kilowatthour halfway between its assigned value per kilowatthour and the average billing rate paid by THE INTERCONNECTION for Emergency, Supplemental or Short Term energy received during that hour.
The information provided under Schedule 7.01(a) by each Party Hereto who received 'a share of such energy shall be adjusted by the amount allocated to each, to reflect the receipt of such energy from others.
(e) When scheduled energy is received by THE INTERCONNECTION from others, any part of which is Conservation Energy, as defined in agreements between the Parties Hereto and others, the amount of such part shall be allocated each hour by the Office of THE INTERCONNECTION among the Parties Hereto in the following sequential steps:
~ '1) To those who Parties Hereto whose generation was report energy receipts under 'Schedule 7.01(a) in pro-Page 3 curtailed and of 6 portion to their respective amounts of curtailed generation but not 'in excess of their energy receipts, and (2) Any remaining amount after .step '(1) to all Barties Hereto who report energy receipts under Schedule 7.01(a) in proportion to 4
such 'receipts after adjustment for the allocation in step (1).
The corresponding value of such energy to each Party Hereto shall be deter-mined by the Office of THE INTERCONNECTION as the average cost to supply such energy by others, increased by 207.. Each Party Hereto who received an allocated share of such energy shall be debited for the amount of its I share at a rate per kilowatthour halfway between its assigned value per kilowatthour and the average billing rate paid by THE INTERCONNECTION for Conservation Energy received during that hour., The information provided under Schedule 7.01(a) by each Party Hereto who received a share of such energy shall be adjusted by the amount allocated to each, to reflect the receipt of such energy from others. Each Party Hereto who received a share of such energy shall be debited or credited, as the case may be,- for its share of any supplemental bill from others to adjust for the suppliers'ut-of-pocket cost of replacement fuel, as provided for in the agreements with others, in proportion to its allocation of Conservation Energy.
(f) When scheduled energy is supplied by THE INTERCONNECTION to others, the amount and cost of generation increased by each Party. Hereto to supply the energy shall be determined each hour by the Office of THE INTERCONNECTION based on unit operating costs provided by the Parties Hereto. When such scheduled energy is Emergency, Conservation, Supplemental or Short Term
.Page 4 of G the cost of generation increased by each Party Hereto shall include the operating capacity costs. Each Party Hereto whose generation was I
~ L increased shall be credited for the energy supplied at a rate per kilo-watthour halfway between its cost per kilowatthour and the average billing rate paid by= others to THE ItlTERCONNECTION for the scheduled energy supplied t
-during that hour, but in no event shall such credit by less than its cost.
The information provided under Schedule 7.01(a) by each Party Hereto who supplied energy to others shall be adjusted by the amount and cost of the energy supplied, to reflect the delivery of such energy to others. Whenever THE INTERCONNECTION renders a supplemental bill to others for the supply of Conservation Energy, as provided for in agreements. with others, each Party, Hereto with billing adjustments shall be debited or credited, as the case may be, its respective amounts of'such supplemental bill.
(g) The difference between the sum of the amounts 'debited or credited to the Paities Hereto under (b), (d), (e), and (f) and the amounts paid to or received from others by THE INTERCONNECTION shall be allocated as a credit to all Parties Hereto as follows:
(1) One-third in proportion to the System Capacity of each Party Hereto at the time of the transaction.
(2) Two-thirds in proportion to the transmission investment of Party Hereto effective for the then current revision of I'ach Schedule 5.03.
(h) When the scheduled interchange with others in an hour is such that all'r part of the energy received by THE INTERCONNECTION is equal in amount to all or part of the energy supplied by THE INTERCONNECTION, the difference between the billing amounts paid and received by THE INTERCONNECTION for. the equal amount of energy shall be determined and each Party Hereto shall be credited for a share of such difference allocated as provided in (g).
'f
(
Page 5 of 6 INADVERTENT INTERCHANGE (i$aL Inadvertent interchange shall be determined by the Office of THE INTERCONNECTION as the net difference each hour between the nletered 4
and the scheduled interchange with others.
(j) Inadvertent interchange shall be accounted for each hour by the Office of THE INTERCONNECTION as follows:
(1) When the metered interchange exceeds the scheduled interchange, the inadvertent interchange shall be accounted for at the average rate per kilowatthour of all generation avoided or supplied by the Parties Hereto, depending on the direction of inadvertent flow.
(2) When the scheduled interchange exceeds the metered 1
interchange, the inadvertent interchange shall be accounted for at the average billing rate p'aid to ox received from others, depending on the direction of inadvertent flow.

ALLOCATION AMONG PARTIES HERETO OF PAYMENTS AND CHARGES FOR CONSERVATION ENERGY (a) Agreements between the Parties Hereto, acting as a group, and others not party to the AGREEMENT, provide for the generation and delivery of Conservation Energy as defined in sdch agreements. Allocation among Parties Hereto of those portions of the payments and charges for Conservation Energy which are determined at specified rates under such agreements, and the billing within THE INTERCONNECTION in connection t therewith, shall tion be made in accordance with this schedule.
(b) Those portions of such charges by others for the generation of Conserva-Energy and those portions of such payments to the Parties Hereto for the generation of Conservation Energy shall be accounted for and billed ig within THE INTERCONNECTION in accordance with Schedule 7.03 of this AGREEMENT.
(c) When the Parties Hereto purchase Conservation Energy from others, each Party Hereto shall pay to the billing agent. a share of the charges described 'in .(a) in proportion to its Accounted-For Obligation (as the same may be adjusted in accordance with Schedule 2.21 (e)) in that portion of the Planning Period in which the energy was purchased.
('d) When others purchase Conservation Energy fiom the Parties Hereto, "the portion of the payments described in (a) shall be divided as follows:
(1) 707. representing payment for generating capacity shall be allocated among the Parties Hereto in proportion to their respective actual Contract Capacities in that portion of the Planning Period in which the seriices were provided, after adjustments for sales and purchases
Page 2 of 2 under Schedules 3.01 and 5.01.
(4) 307. representing payment for transmission services shall be allocated as provided in Schedule 5.03.
The foregoing division of payments shall be reviewed from time to time and shall be revised upon approval by the MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE. Each Party Hereto shall receive from the billing agent i& share of the payments as so allocated.
4 (e) When the Parties Hereto transmit Conservation Energy for others, the por-tion of the payments described in-(a) shall be divided as follows:
(1) 57% representing payment for transmission services shall be allocated as provided in Schedule 5.03; (2) 12% representing payment for administrative expenses shall be allocated as provided in Schedule 9.01; (3) 317. representing payment for transmission losses shall be allocated in two parts:
(A) One-third representing payment for additional losses on the 500 KV systems shall be allocated in accordance with Schedule 12.03 or revision thereof of the Extra High Voltage Transmission System (EHV) Agreement".
(B) Two-thirds representing payment for additional losses on the lower voltage transmission lines shall be allocated in, proportion to the additional losses incurred by each Party Hereto as deter-mined by computer load flow analysis for typical transactions.
The foregoing division of payments shall be reviewed from time to time and shall be revised upon approval by the MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE. Each Party Hereto shall receive from the billing agent its share of the payments as so allocated.

- 3) Six (6) copies of Exhibit 1 - a summary 'of proposed new schedules and proposed changes to pres'ent schedules of the PJM Agreement.
- 4) Six (6) copies of a Notice, suitable for publication in the Federal Register.
- 5) A check covering the required filing fee.
The Supplemental Agreement sets forth additional rights and obligations of the PJM companies with respect to coordinating the installation and operation of generating capacity and major transmission facilities, and modifies the provisions for the sharing of the costs and benefits of coordinated 'operation.
Article 7 covering Operating Capacity Requirement and Obligations has been-clarified and updated to include provision, for regulating capability. Provisions of the'present Agreement covering accounting for energy and operating cap'acity have been transferred to'roposed new schedules. This approach is consistent with the cbanges made in Capacity Accounting'in the April 1; 1974 Supplemental Agreement.
Previous supplements to the PJM Agreement contained in Standard Practices 2>>5, 3-7, and 6-1 have been transferred to new schedules and provision made to'ancel these Standard Practices. Provisions to account internally for energy and operating capacity transactions with non-members previously covered in Standard Practice 3-7, have been revised to recognize the participation of the parties in the outside trans-action, rather than allocate equal shares of such outside transactions to all parties as under the present Agreement. One-half of the PJM savings on outside transactions will be allocated among the participant parties (in the same manner as savings are shared on internal transactions) and the other half will be shared by all parties I
~in proportion to size as measured one-third by System Capacity and two-thirds by Transmission Investment (Schedule 5.03). Each party's percentage share based on data as of June 1, 1977 is listed in Exhibit 1 under Schedule 6.04. No change is proposed in the accounting and billing for the interchange of 'energy and operating capacity between the parties themselves.
With the changes proposed in accounting for interchange, 'all savings will be allocated by participation and/or size. It is also proposed to change the allo-cation among the parties of the expenses of the Office of the Interconnection from equal shares to a method which also .recognizes participation and size.. Each party' percentage share based on data for the 1976-1977 Planning Period is listed in Exhibit 1 under Schedule 9.01.
Y Summarized on Exhibit 1 attached are the proposed changes, to present schedules and the content of proposed new schedules, which are herewith submitted for filing with the Supplemental Agreement.
There are no new rates proposed for which a billing comparison can be made in accordance with Section 35.13(b)(l) of the Commission's Regulations. It is recog-nized that the change proposed in accounting for outside transactions wi'll affect the total debits and credits of the parties. In the past it has not been lto'identify the individual parties whose equipment participated in outside necessary trans-actions. There are no data available from which the individual participants in outside transactions over the twelve 'months prior to August 1, 1977 can be determined.
)It,is also not possible to predict the outside transactions and individual participant
~parties to such transactions over the twelve months following August 1, 1977. There-fore, while individual parties may have attempted general judgmental evaluations of the impact of the proposed changes, no mathematical quantification or of
'the effect of the proposed changes is possible and none has been made. computation To the extent that Section 35.13(b)(l) of the Commission's Regulations is deemed applicable to this filing, waiver of that regulation is requested based on the foregoing.

SCHEDULE 6.03 Issued: June 15, 1977 Effective: August 1, 1977 ACCOUNTING FOR OPERATING CAPACITY (a) For the purpose of accounting under this AGREEMENT, the Operating Capacity Obligation of each Party Hereto shall be an amount of synchronized capacity equal to:.
(1) During a peak period, its estimated peak load for that period, adjusted for its share of estimated load diversity applied in the determination of the estimated peak load for THE INTERCONNECTION, plus its share of the Spinning Reserve Requirement allocated in accordance with Schedule 6.02.
(2) During all other hours, its actual load plus its share of the Spinning Reserve Requirement allocated in accordance with Schedule 6.02.
The time and duration of the peak periods each day shall be specified by the Office'f THE INTERCONNECTION.
s (b) Load diversity on THE INTERCONNECTION, for the purpose of this schedule, s
shall be the remainder obtained by subtracting the estimated peak load of THE INTERCONNECTION for any period from the sum of the estimated individual System peak loads of the Parties Hereto for such period. The proportional share of the estimated load diversity on THE lNTERCONNECTlON in any peak period allocated to each Party .Hereto shall be determined by the same ratio as in Schedule 6 02(d).
Page 2 of 4 SCHEDULE 6 '3 (c) A Party Hereto whose synchronized capacity during a peak period .is more or less than its obligation,,as determined under (a) shall be considered to have an excess or deficiency, respectively, by the amount of such difference.
(d) Each Party Hereto that 'has a deficiency of synchronized capacity shall I
determine its replacement value as the avoided cost to operate available equipment in amount equal to its .deficiency. 'In the event that the.
capacity of available equipment of a Party Hereto is le'ss than its deficiency, it shall use as the replacement value for such difference the weighted average cost per kilowatt, increased by 20%y of the highest s
cost capacity operated on, THE INTERCONNECTION by Parties Hereto, equal in amount of capacity to the total synchronized capacity deficiencies of all Parties Hereto for which equipment is not available to determine replace-ment values.
(e) Each Party Hereto that supplies excess synchronized capacity by operating equipment for THE INTERCONNECTION which is excess to its own,requirements l
shall determine its cost to operate such equipment and shall charge such cost in the'perating Capacity 'Account. In the event the total capacity of such equipment exceeds the sum of the deficiencies of the Parties Hereto, the costs for the highest cost equipment in amount of capacity equivalent to such sum shall be charged in the Operating Capacity Account I
and the costs for the remaining equipment shall be charged in the Energy Account.
(f) Each Party Hereto that supplies excess synchronized capacity by operating equipment for THE INTERCONNECTION but uses any part of such equipment !
to meet its own requirements (incidental excess) shall charge for such
I I Page 3 of 4 SCHEDULE 6 '3 excess in the Operating Capacity Account either at zero cost or in a manner specified by the OPERATING COMMITTEE. In the event the total of the deficiencies of the Parties Hereto is greater than 'the total y
l, amount of capacity operated for THE INTERCONNECTION by Parties Hereto I
I having excesses for which costs are charged in the Operating Capacity Account, the difference shall be allocated equally to the extent possible I
to the Parties Hereto having incidental excesses
~
except that the amount allocated to any Party Hereto shall not exceed the amount of its incidenta excess.
(g) The daily savings accruing to the Parties Hereto for the supply and receipt of operating capacity during peak periods shall be computed as the difference between (l) the total costs'harged in the Operating Capacity Account for all peak periods of a day of Parti'es Hereto having excesses and (2) the total replacement values for all peak periods of a day of the Parties Hereto having deficiencies. One-half of the daily savings shall be allocated to those Parties Hereto supply operating 1
capacity in proportion to the amount of capacity so supplied, and the other half shall be allocated to those Parties Hereto receiving operating capacity in proportion to the total replacement values of each such Party Hereto.
(h) Each Party Hereto that has a deficiency in operating capacity during peak periods shall be debj.ted in the Operating Capacity Account its total replacement value for all peak periods of the day less its allocated share of the daily savings. Each Party Hereto that supplies operating capacity during peak periods shall be credited in the Operating Capacity Account for its total cost for all peak periods of
Page 4 of 4' SCHEDULE 6.03 the 'day plus its allocated share of the daily savings.
(i) All debits and credits arising from a deficiency in the Operating Capacity Obligation of any Party Hereto in hours other than during peak periods shall be entered in the Energy Account.

(b) When economy operating capacity is received by THE INTERCONNECTION from others, the 'amount and value of avoided operation of each Party Hereto each day shall be determined by the Office of THE INTERCONNECTION based on unit operating costs provided by the Parties Hereto. Each Party Hereto who avoided operating its generating equipment shall be debited an amount halfway between its value of avoided operation and the billing amount paid by THE INTERCONNECTION to others for an equivalent amount of operating capacity received, but in no event shall such debit exceed its value. The amount of operating capacity from others received by each Party Hereto shall be considered as synchronized capacity for purposes. of accounting under Schedule 6.03.
(c) When Emergency, Supplemental or Short Term operating capacity, as defined in agreements between the Parties Hereto and others, is received without energy by THE INTERCONNECTION from other's during peqk periods of a day, it shall be allocated each peak period by the Office of THE INTERCONNECTION among the Parties Hereto in proportion to their deficiencies, as determined in Schedule 6.03(c), for which they cannot provide replacement values on their own equipment. The corresponding value of such operating capacity
Page 2 of <
SCHEDVLE 6.04 to each Party Hereto shall be determined by'the Office'f THE INTER-CONNECTION as the average cost of the operating capacity supplied by others-, increased by 207.. Each Party Hereto who received an allocated share shall be debited an amount halfway between, its assigned value and its allocated share of the total billing amount paid by THE INTERCONNECTION for the operating capacity received. The amount of operating capacity from others allocated to each Party Hereto shall be considered as syn-V chronized capacity for purposes of accounting under Schedule 6.03.
(d) When Emergency, Supplemental or Short Term operating capacity is A
received with energy by THE INTERCONNECTION from others during peak periods of a day, and when Emergency, Supplemental or Short Term operating capacity is received by THE INTERCONNECTION from others in hours other than during peak periods, the operating capacity costs charged by others will be included in the allocation and accounting for Emergency, Supplemental or Short Term energy under Schedule 7.03(d).

Each Party Hereto whose generating equipment was operated for such supply shall be credited an amount halfway between its cost and the billing amount paid by others to THE INTERCONNECTION for the operating capacity supplied from its equipment, but in no event shall such credit be less than its cost.
(f) When operating capacity is supplied without energy by THE INTERCONNECTION to others during peak periods of a day from excess synchronized capacity.
Page 3 of 4 SCHEDULE 6.04 operating for THE INTERCONNECTION, the cost of supply in each peak period shall be determined by the Office of THE INTERCONNECTION based on unit operating costs provided by the Parties Hereto. Each Party Hereto shall be credited a share of the billing amount paid by others for the operating capacity supplied in proport'ion .to its share of the Spinning Reserve Requirement determined in 'accordance with Schedule 6.02(d).
(g) When Emergency, Supplemental or Short Term operating capacity is supplied with energy by THE INTERCONNECTION to others during peak periods of a day, and when Emergency,. Supplemental or Short Term operating capacity is supplied by THE INTERCONNECTION to others in hours other than during peak periods, the cost of generation increased by each Party Hereto as determined under Schedule 7.03(e) shall include the operating capacity costs and all debits and credits shall be entered in the Energy Account.
(h) The difference between the sum of the amounts debited or credited to the Parties Hereto under (b)., (c) and.(e) and the amounts paid to or received from others by THE INTERCONNECTION shall be allocated as a
\
credit to all Parties Hereto as follows:

(1) Each Party Hereto receiving energy from THE INTERCONNECTION shall be debited for energy received at a rate per kilowatthour half-way between its replacement value per kilowatthour and the weighted average cost per kilowatthour of all Parties Hereto supplying energy to THE INTERCONNECTION during that hour.
SCHEDULE 7 ~ 01 Page 2 of 2
( 2) Each Party Hereto supplying energy to THE INTERCONNECTION r
shall be credited for energy supplied at a rate per kilowatthour halfway between its cost per kilowatthour and the weighted average replacement value per kilowatthour of all Parties Hereto receiving energy from THE INTERCONNECTION during that hour.
(3) When a Party Hereto operates or'ould have operated boiler capacity and/or machine capacity solely for economical energy generation, the cost or replacement value of such operating capacity shall be considered as a part of the total cost or replacement value of its energy interchanged during that hour-(4) When a Party Hereto .receives energy from THE INTERCONNECTION to supply pumping energy for its pumped storage hydro capacity, it shall use as the replacement value of such energy, the weighted average cost per kilowatthour, increased by 20%, of the highest cost block of energy generated on THE INTERCONNECTION in'the same hour, equal in amount to the total pumping energy received from THE INTERCONNECTION by all Parties Hereto in that hour.
When a Party Hereto receives energy from THE INTERCONNECTION for which it has no replacement value, it shall use as the replacement value of such energy the weighted average cost per kilowatthour, increased by 20%, of the next highest cost block, below the block determined in (4), of energy generated on THE INTER-CONNECTION in the same hour equal in amount to the total energy of all Parties Hereto for which there is no replacement value.

SCHEDULED INTERCHANGE (b) Except as provided in (c) and (d), when scheduled energy is received by t
THE INTERCONNECTION from others, the amount and value of avoided generation of each Party Hereto shall be determined each hour by the Office of THE INTERCONNECTION based on the ascending order of unit operating costs provided by the Parties Hereto.'ach Party Hereto whose gene-ation was avoided shall be debited for the amount of such avoided generation at a rate per kilowatthour halfway between its value of avoided generation per kilowatthour and the average billing rate paid by THE INTERCONNECTION for the energy scheduled to, be received during that hour, but in no event shall such debit exceed its value. The information provided under Schedule 7.01(a) by each Party Hereto whose generation was P
avoided. shall be adjusted by the amount and value of its avoided generation, to reflect the receipt of such energy from others.
(c) Prior to the pumping cycle in the operation of pumped storage hydro plants of the Parties Hereto, the Office of THE INTERCONNECTION shall determine for .each plant a pumping cutoff rate defined as the generation rate per kilowatthour on THE INTERCONNECTION at which pumping shall be reduced or discontinued because energy generated above that rate for pumping would provide uneconomical energy during the generating cycle. During any hour in which economy energy is received by THE INTERCONNECTION from others and
Page =2 of 4 SCHEDULE 7.03 the amount of enargy utilized by. the Parties Hereto for pumping exceeds the amount that could have been generated on THE INTERCONNECTION at or below the pumping cutoff rate,,such amount of excess shall be considered avoided generation valued at the pumping cutoff rate in determining the value of avoided generation in (b).

(e) When scheduled energy is supplied by THE INTERCONNECTION to others, the amount and cost of generation increased by each Party Hereto to supply the energy shall be determined each hour by the Office of THE INTERCONNECTION
Page 3 of 4 SCHEDULE 7 '3 based on unit operating costs, provided by the Parties Hereto. When such scheduled energy is Emergency', Supplemental or Short Term, the cost of generation increased by each Party Hereto shall include the operating capacity costs. Each Party Hereto whose generation was increased shall be credited for the energy supplied at a rate per
\
kilowatthour halfway between its cost per kilowatthour and the average billing rate paid by others to THE INTERCONNECTION for the scheduled energy supplied during that hour, but in no event shall such credit be less than its cost. The information provided under Schedule 7.01(a) by each Party Hereto who supplied energy'o others shall be adjusted by the amount and cost of the energy supplied, to reflect the delivery of such energy to others'f)

PJM COORDINATED PROGRAM FOR REDUCTION IN ENERGY USE In late'973 the electric public utilities which make up the Pennsylvania-'ew Jersey-Maryland Interconnection (PJM), became concerned with the problems associated with the adequacy of their fuel supplies. They concluded that it was essential to adopt an advanced planning approach to deal with periods when their available fuel supplies may be dangerously low. In considering this action, some background information may provide helpful perspective. The PJM utilities have for many years planned and operated their systems on a coordinated basis. One of the pioneer power pools, PJM has fostered the concept that the interconnected companies should be operated on the basis of. the lowest overall costs consistent with providing reliable service.
In meeting the objectives of efficient operation of systems spread across a region including all or parts of five states and the District of Columbia, PJM has had the cooperation of both federal and state regulatory authorities. The PJM concept requires the commitment of each system to each other system in the coordinated supply to the entire area covered. Provincial interests have been set aside in the optimized operation to the ultimate benefit of all customers throughout the PJM region.
Coordinated action has,dealt with emergency circumstances, as well as efficiencies of operation. In the late 1960's, the spectre of blackouts and brownouts arose due to possible generating capacity deficiencies in periods of extremely high demand caused by unforeseen load growth. Circumstances called for a coordinated plan to deal with curtailing load to protect all systems in PJM. Such a plan was developed and formed the basis of discussions or filings by the members with the several state utility commissions and the FPC. The plan, which provided measures ranging from requests for voluntary customer curtailment to actually interrupting customer service on a selective basis, is consistent throughout the region served by
PJM companies. It is effective without regard to the actual generating capacity situation on any one system.
Since 1973 the utilities of PJM have been threatened by an equally serious problem. It concerns the supplies of. fuel which they must have in order to provide electric service. Utilities are consumers of fossil fuel resources. PJM companies require large amounts of coal and oil as well as smaller, but also vital amounts r
of uranium in order to produce electricity. If their supply of such fuels is seriously diminished or cut off, it can only mean curtailed production of electricity.
Experience since 1973 has proven that the supply of oil for such purposes is dependent on many circumstances over which PJM and its members have little, if any, control. Coal supplies, which until now have been reasonably adequate, have helped PJM meet its energy demands despite the oil supply situation. However, a significant strike in the coal 'industry could create a fuel supply crisis for PJM much more serious than that experienced with oil supplies.
Events such as natural disasters, national defense circumstances, international trade obstruction, and governmental directives, may also disrupt fuel supplies and therefore affect or limit the ability to generate electricity. The threat of these circumstances require prudent management to plan, recognizing that such conditions may develop, and that the fuel supply situation in PJM will be critical for the foreseeable future. It will require constant and careful monitoring of the fuel situation in order, for the PJM companies to do a competent job of meeting energy requirements with the fuel resources on hand and reasonably available.
The PJM utilities have, of course, all taken steps to promote energy conservation, both by their customers and in their own operations. These steps clearly have been quite helpful in conserving fuel resources when current consumption is considered ln the light of prior use and growth patterns..
2
Another step taken by PJM has been that of scheduling its generating capacity with the objective of conserving available fuel resources. These actions have to date been primarily aimed at conservation of oil supplies which became critically low during the 1973 oil embargo. Coal-fired generation was operated more to achieve this result. This policy could be applied in the opposite direction--
to use more oil in the event a severe coal supply problem were to develop.
Despite all these measures, there may be periods when overall fuel supplies in PJM may be seriously inadequate. Cognizant of the fact that such an event might border on catastrophe, the PJM utilities prepared to act on a coordinated basis and in a consistent manner. A comprehensive energy reduction program was devised. The terms ofthis procedure were set forth in an agreement among the PJM utilities, dated March 8, 1974, to coordinate the reduction in energy use, should such action become necessary. By its own terms, the 1974 Agreement expired after one year. At the end of that year it was considered that the procedure was still valid and that the Agreement could be re-enstated on short notice, if necessary Formal extension of the Agreement was not considered necessary at that time.
An awareness of the present energy situation and analysis of potential fuel supply developments has convinced the PJM members that an advanced planning approach to their fuel supply situation is again imperative. This has resulted in a reexam-ination of the concepts of the 1974 Agreement in the light of current considerations.
The process has resulted in the execution by the PJM member companies of a new agreement, the 1977 Energy Use Reduction Agreement, as an on-going procedure to deal with major potential fuel shortage situations. The Agreement incorporates the fuel conservation generation measures already referred to. It provides for continual monitoring of fuel supplies and analysis of the fuel energy situation. Moreover, if fuel supplies diminish to the danger level, the plan provides for the conservation of available fuel resources by reduction in energy use by customers.
The program initially attempts to accomplish conservation by way of voltage reductions and by voluntary customer reductions in use. However, if fuel supplies continue to drop, the program provides a number of additional steps to curtail f
energy consumption. These'easures are tough. They go so far as to actually restrict many customer choices heretofore considered to be entirely matters of sole concern to the customer. They provide for limitations upon business opera-tions and recreational activities. They ultimately include selective interruption of customer service to prevent electric energy use in order to conserve fuel.
The measures proposed in the energy reduction plan are both revolutionary and extreme when viewed against the historical pattern of the energy industry in this nation. But if available fuel supplies diminish drastically, they may provide the only means available to conserve available fuel and maintain essential electric service. Because the program is so comprehensive and goes beyond voluntary cooperation, there is a basic question of authority to carry out such measures.
The utilities of PJM operate under different state laws. Even within a particular state, there can be differences in interpretation as to the legal authority of the utility-to adopt and enforce such a program. Overall, the general feeling is that the explicit mandate and sanction of the police power of the state itself is required to carry out such a program, exercised by way of executive order, or utility comnission action or otherwise. But one thing is certain. If an enforced and comprehensive energy reduction program is to be effective, it must have appropriate authorization under law in all the jurisdictions in which PJM utilities operate. Moreover, it requires the active participation of the multi'-'tate governmental authorities on a consistent basis.
The energy reduction program conceived by the PJM utilities is embodied in f
an Agreement between PJM utilities and associated companies in the power pool.
The heart of the program and the PJM approach are clearly set out in Section 1 of the Agreement:
It is the policy of the signatories hereto and of PJM to operate on a one-system basis, utilizing available fuel resources to produce electrical energy to supply the loads of all PJM signatories and associated systems, regardless of any such individual system's fuel or energy availability, under the principle of economical dispatch within constraints of reliability and fuel availability.
The specific energy use reduction plan is contained in Schedule 1 of the Agreement. It was developed by the utilities. A review of the drastic actions set out in this schedule clearly shows the need for government involvement and action in the event of serious fuel shortages. As already noted, there is no way that sufficient electricity can be produced in PJM without an adequate supply of fuel. Without sufficient fuel, the only recourse is to reduce the use of electric energy. The means of accomplishing reduction of energy use is what the schedule is all about.
The various steps of the schedule provide the ability to meet different and changing situations. A brief review will illustrate the comprehensive nature of the several measures.
Upon identification that a fuel shortage is developing, the public will be notified of the situation and requested to reduce electric energy use.
Large commercial and industrial customers would be contacted individually and asked to implement a voluntary en'ergy reduction plan. Based on recent past experience of conservation measures, it is believed that this public appeal, the voluntary plan, along with a 3% voltage reduction, will result in a reduction in energy use of about 57., resulting in a similar reduction in the need for fuel.
It is anticipated that such reduction would vary greatly from customer to customer, based on individual conditions and commitment. Thus, it is important that the customers understand the reasoning for the appeal, and that they be
'dvised of specific measures that they may take to effect further reductions in use.'
5-
If the appeals do not produce sufficient reductions in use to meet the rate of change in diminishing fuel supplies, further reductions in use must be made.
It is at this point that stronger appeals must be made and that, as contrasted to the first appeal, these reductions may involve substantial ".sacrifices" by the customer.
Support by all governmental agencies becomes especially important at this stage, since the steps call for moving from the purely voluntary reduction to a mandatory reduction. The items included in Step B of the program cover a range of severe restrictions on use. They include, for example, the curtailing of night recreational activities and closing of businesses through evening and nighttime hours. The mandate and sanction of the police power of government is essential if these steps are to be implemented.
In the event these measures do not produce sufficient reductions, the next step entails a form of "rationing of available fuel" by directing customers to reduce electric energy use as compared to the same billing period in the preceding 12 months. It is recognized that this is a serious step, and that each utility must be cognizant of the diverse customer concerns and problems which will develop.
Each utility will establish a review procedure to provide customers with responsible answers to questions about levels of prior use and any special situations prevailing.
Here again, positive authorization of governmental agencies is critical, since the customer is being required to depart from his historical relationship with the utility in which the customer "purchased what he wanted".
In the event the fuel situation continues to deteriorate, further and more drastic action will be required to prevent total failure of the electric system.
The ultimate step in the program is to sequentially interrupt essentially all customers each and every day. If even more curtailment is required, progressive further reduction in use by all customers would be required.
The steps outlined above dramatize what a serious effect a fuel shortage emergency could have on the electric energy customers and on the life style and tQe economy of the region. The utilities recognize that electric energy is a part of a much larger total and extremely complex energy picture. Although they cannot predict today if any of the steps of the emergency plan may ever be needed, they are convinced that a potential serious fuel supply situation exists today and will continue for some years into the future. The PJM companies believe their plan, if supported by the necessary authorizations by the states involved, and if applied in a uniform manner, will minimize the impact on the region of a shortage of fuel to generate electric energy.

Washington, D.C. 20426 Attention: Mr. Kenneth F. Plumb, Secretary Gentlemen:
Enclosed herewith for filing on behalf of the following listed parties to the Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland (PJM) Interconnection Agreement are sixteen (16) copies of proposed Schedule 6.01 modifying the original Interconnection Agreement dated September 26; 1956, as heretofore amended and supplemented, which is on file with the Commission under the followi'ng Rate Schedule designations.
~Com nn Rate Schedule Public Service Electric and Gas Company FPC No. 23 Philadelphia Electric Company 21 Pennsylvania Power & Light Company 21 .
Baltimore Gas and Electric Company 9 Potomac Electric Power Company 19 Jersey Central Power & Light Company 7 Metropolitan Edison Company 7 Pennsylvania Electric Company 24 The proposed Schedule provides for the accounting and billing among the parties to the PJM Agreement for excesses and deficiencies of regulating capability as defined in the proposed Schedule. The parties request that the proposed Schedule become effective on June 1, 1976.
Operating practices in effect on the PJM Interconnection require each party to provide its share of the regulating capability required to control tie line loadings and frequency in accordance with nationally adopted criteria for interconnected operation. For various reasons, such as, the scheduled outage for maintenance of generating units- and the relative fuel costs of operating units capable of regulating, some parties from time-to-time provide more than their share of the regulating capability required, and other parties less. The recent rapid escalation in fossil fuel costs has aggravated the economic burden 'of those parties which supply more than their share of the required regulating capability. Hence, the parties have agreed uponi the procedure set forth in the proposed Schedule whereby the excesses and deficiencies of regulating capability among the parties will be accounted for hourly and those General Public Utllltics Corporation PublIc Service Electric and Gas Company Jersey Central Power G Light Company Philadelphia Electric Company Metropolitan Edison Company Pennsylvania Power & Llcht Company Pennsylvania Electric Company Saltimore Gas end Electric Company Potomac Electric Power Company
<<2 parties which provide less than their share of the required regulating'capability on PJM will make payments to those. parties which provide more than their share, at rates representative of the cost of providing such excess capability.
The regulating capability required each hour on PJM may be assigned to different types of units as dictated by economic dispatch, the availability of generating units, and the load level on the interconnection. For example, at heavy load levels, marginal fossil-fired steam units and possibly combustion tur'bines would be in operation and could be assigned a portion of the regulating, capability required, while at light and medium load levels, these units would not be in operation and the regu-lating capability would be assigned to base load fossil-fired steam units. Since the nature of regulating capability is to respond instantly to system control signals to it I
maintain tie line loadings and system frequency at scheduled values, is difficult to determine accuratelyhowmuch, if any, of the regulating capability assigned to a given unit is actually delivered, and equally difficult to determine the true, cost of energy obtained by the owner of a regulating unit to replace energy which may not have been generated by that unit. Furthermore, the owners of units which provide regulating capability incur additional expenses associated with reduced efficiency and increased maintenance, which are difficult to determine. Therefore, the proposed Schedule provides that the accounting be based on rates which are representative of the energy replacement costs and other vari'able operating costs on the PJM Interconnection for the particular types of equipment which may be operated to provide the regulating capability required on PJM.
In response to Section 35.1(b) of the Commission's Regulations, it is pointed out that because the delivery and receipts of regulating capability depend on many variable factors among which are the availability of generating units having regulating capability, the PJM running rate, and the total regulating capability it is impossible to predict the transactions and revenues to be accounted 'equired, for under the proposed Schedule.
No facilities are required to be installed or modified in order to provide the services covered by the proposed Schedule.
In response to Section 35.8(a) of the Commission's Regulations, there are enclosed three copies of a form of Notice of Application suitable for publication in the Federal Register.
A check in the amount of $ 800 is enclosed pursuant to Section 36.2(e) of the Commission's Regulations to cover the filing fee determined as follows: $ 100 for a nominal rate schedule for one party and $ 100 for each additional submittal for each of the other parties to the Agreement.
All parties to the PJM Agreement have approved this filing and have received copies thereof. This filing is made on behalf of the parties by the undersigned in accordance with Section 35.1(b) of the Commission's Regulations and the authorization contained in Section 3.3(vi) of the PJM Agreement.
Copies of this letter and its enclosures will be furnished promptly to the Regulatory Commissions of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia and the District of Columbia for their information.

SCHEDULE 2. 213 Page 1 of 2 LARGE UNIT AD USTMENTS U Issued: April 1, 1974 Effective: June 1, 1974 (a) Large unit adjustments of the Parties Hereto (U) in a Planning Period shall be determined in accordance with this schedule whenever the Net Capability of units included in the planned System Capacity of a Party Hereto as of Sept-x ember 30 of the Planning Period is in excess of the specified size of unit defined herein.
(b) The large unit adjustment shall be five percent of t'e amount, in megawatts, by which such excess of a Party Hereto is more or less than a proportionate part of the total of such excesses'of all Parties Hereto, allocated to each Party Hereto in accordance with the ratio of its forecast diversified Planning Period peak to the Planning Period peak of THE INTERCONNECTION. If more, such adjustment shall be considered plus (+) in the equati'on in Schedule 2.21 (b);
if less, such adjustment shall be considered minus (-) in such equation. For use in such equation, the adjustment of a Party Hereto shall be expressed in percent of its forecast diversified Planning Period peak. The specified size of unit initially shall be 900 MW.
(c) Whenever through ownershi'p or purchase the System Capacity of a Party Hereto includes a portion of the capability of a unit larger than the specified size, the megawatts assigned to the Party Hereto with respect to the capability of such unit in excess of the specified size shall be in proportion to the ownership or purchase by the Party Hereto.
SCHEDULE 2.213 Page 2 of 2 (d) The five percent factor in item (b) represents the effect on the requirement for capacity to be installed on THE INTERCONNECTION of the operation of units larger than the specified size, as planned at the time this Schedule initially becomes effective. Such factor, and the specified size of unit, shall be regularly reviewed (initially annually) by the PLANNING AND ENGINEER-ING COMMITTEE in connection with its calculations of Forecast Requirements of THE INTERCONNECTION, using methods and data consistent with those utilized therein. If such review indicates a difference in the effect on capacity require-ments, or that the specified size of unit should be increased, the PLANNING AND ENGINEERING COMMITTEE shall report its finding and recommendation to the MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE. Upon approval of a change by the MANAGE-MENT COMMITTEE, this Schedule shall be appropriately revised and supple-mented and shall thereupon be made effective as to Planning Periods for which capacity commitments have not yet been made in accordance with Schedule 2.01 (e).
SCHEDULE 2. 214 Page 1 of 2 LOAD DROP AD USTMENTS D Issued: April 1, 1974 Effective: June 1, 1974 P
(a) Load drop adjustments (D) of the Parties Hereto in a Planning Period shall be determined in accordance with this schedule.
(b) A Party Hereto shall be considered to have a need for load drop when in a Planning Period the ratio (load drop ratio) of the algebraic sum of (1) the fore-cast average of its 52 weekly peak loads, (2) the forecast average of its Unavail-able Capability in each week because of planned and maintenance outages, and (3) the forecast average of its miscellaneous adjustments, to its Planning Period peak, is greater than the load drop ratio for THE INTERCONNECTION.
~ (c) For the purposes of this schedule, the load drop ratto for THE INTERCONNECTION shall be the average of the load drop ratios of all the Parties Hereto weighted by their respective Planning Period peaks.
(d) The load drop adjustment, expressed in megawatts, of a Party Hereto having a I
need for load drop shall be (1) the increase in percent reserve requirement on THE INTERCONNECTION corresponding to the load drop ratio of such Party Hereto, less the increase in percent reserve requirement on THE INTERCONNECTION corresponding to the load drop ratio of THE INTER'CONNECTION, multiplied by (2) the Planning Period peak of the Party Hereto, and (3) 0.5, to reflect a sharing of such needs and the supplying thereof among the Parties Hereto. For each Planning Period, the relationship of increases in percent reserve requirement of THE INTERCONNECTION to various load drop ratios of THE INTERCONNECTION
SCHEDULE 2,214 Page 2 of 2 shall be determined by the PLANNING AND ENGINEERING COMMITTEE in con-nection with its calculation of the Forecast Requirement of THE INTERCONNECTION for the Planning Period, using methods and data consistent with those utilized therein.
(e) The total of the load drop adjustments of Parties Hereto having need for load drop (total adjustment) shall be considered as supplied by the Parties Hereto having load drop ratios equal to or less than the load drop ratio of THE INTER-CONNECTION.
(fl The load drop adjustment of a Party Hereto supplying load drop shall be the total adjustment times the ratio of (1) the product of the Planning Period peak of such Party Hereto and the excess of the load drop ratio of THE INTERCON-NECTION over the load drop ratio of such Party Hereto, to (2) the sum of such products of all Parties Hereto supplying load drop.
(g) The load drop adjustments, as expressed in megawatts, shall be converted to percentages, for use in the equation in Schedule 2.21 (b), by dividing . the respective megawatt amounts by the diversified Planning Period peaks of the several Parties Hereto, Load drop adjustments of Parties Hereto needing load drop shall be considered plus (+), and adjustments of the Parties Hereto sup-plying load drop shall be considered minus (-) in such equation.
SCHEDULE 3. 01 Page 1 of 3
~ i ACCOUNTED-FOR REQUIREMENTS AND OBLIGATIONS Issued: 'pril 1, 1974 Effective; June 1, 1974 (a) 'ection 6.3 of this AGREEMENT provides that an Accounted-For Requirement for electric generating capacity of THE INTERCONNECTION shall be determined for each Planning Period and be equitably shared among the Parties Hereto. The Accounted-For Requirement of THE INTERCONNECTION as determined in para-graph (c) hereof and the equitable shares thereof shall be expressed in megawatts.
{b) The equitable share {herein called Accounted-For Obligation) for each Party Hereto of the Accounted-For Requirement of THE INTERCONNECTION shall be equal to its Forecast Obligation for a Planning Period, plus an adjustment equal to the (1) The actual average of its 52 weekly peak loads during the Planning Period minus the forecast average of its 52 weekly peak loads; and (2) The actual average of its 52 weekly Unavailable Capabilities during the Planning Period minus the forecast average of its 52 weekly Un-available Capabilities, all multiplied by 0.5. The forecast average of its 52 weekly Unavailable Capabilities shall be determined as the algebraic sum of:
(i) its forecast average System Capacity during the Planning Period times its forecast average forced outage rate, (ii) the forecast average of its Unavailable Capability in each week because of planned and maintenance outages, and
SCHEDULE 3,01 Page 2 of 3 (iii) the forecast average of its miscellaneous adjustments in each I
week.
The factor 0.5 may be changed from time to time by the MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE to reflect current conditions.

- 4. Six (6) copies of a form of Yotice of Agreement suitable for publication in the Federal Register.
- 5. A check covering the required filing fee.
In view of the strike by coal miners which adversely affects the supply .of coal to the parties, and in keeping with the Order of the Federal Power Commission under Docket RH74-22, the Parties to th'e Agreement have prepared the proposed Schedule 8.02, which provides for the transfer of energy between the Groups during an energy emergency. The Schedule also provides the flexibility to permit transfers of energy to and from systems interconnected with HYPP or PJH. Proposed Schedule 8.02 replaces Schedule 8.01 which expired on December 31, 1975. In view of the to conserve coal may necessitate near term use of the proposed Schedule.
foregoing,'ransactions Therefore, it is respectfully submitted that good cause exists for waiver of notice of requirements and the Commission is hereby requested, pursuant to Section 35.11 of its Regulations, to ~~aive notice requirements and order the proposed Schedule to be effective as of January 1, 1978. It is proposed tha't the Schedule will terminate on December 31, 1978 unless extended by mutual agreement.
Proposed Schedule 8.02 is not intended to and will not take the place of existing Schedules. The Schedule provides that, for the purpose of conserving energy resources, either NYPP or PJH may arrange to obtain from the other con-servation energy when, in the other's judgment, it has the capability -and fuel resources to provide the same. Such arrangements are to be scheduled for per.'ods of one or more weeks. The arrangements, including the number of megawatts per hour to be supplied, the period of suppl'y, the source and destination, and the estimated cost, as well as modifications thereto, are subject to mutual agreement in advance of supply. The Schedule also provides the method for determining com-pensation for such service.
All of the signatories to the Agreement have'pproved this filing and have received copies thereof. This filing is being made on behalf of such signatories by the undersigned in accordance with the authorization contained in Section 5.08 of the Agreement.
In response to Section 35.13(a) of the Commission's Regulate.ons, it is pointed out that Subsection 2.1 of 'the proposed Schedule provides that the charge for con-servation energy generated on the supplying group's system will be 110%.of the out-of-pocket replacement cost of generating the energy, plus' generation service charge of 3.75 mills per kilowatthour. Subsection 2.3 of the Schedule defines replacement cost of generating the energy as out-of-pocket cost of generating sai,d energy, plus or minus an adjustmcnt (to be made by supplemental bill). to reflect increases or decreases, if any, in the cost of fuel, on a Btu basis, between the month in which the energy is delivered and the second month after such month of delivery. The 3.75 mill per kilowatthour charge is intended to assure that conservation energy service does not adversely affect the financial capa-bility of the supplying system or result in discrimination to its customers. Tlute charge will cover standby and extra maintenance costs and is intended to provide a reasonable contribution to the carrying charges on the facilities involved in generating and transmitting conservation energy. The development of these charges are shown on Attachments I and II hereto.
Subsection 2.2 of the proposed Schcdulc prove.dcs for a service charge of 1.75 mills pcr kilowatthour for dclivcrics of conservation energy from systems inter-connected with NYPP or PJM. This charge is intended to cover losses, administrative charges and other costs oC arranging for and delivering conservation energy from the interconnected systems and to make a reasonable cohtribution to the carrying charges of the transmission facilities required to make thc trans'actions possible..
The development of this charge is shown on Attachments I and XI hereto.
In response to Section 35.13(b) of the Commission's Regulations, it out that because of the uncertainty of the coal miner's 'strike or other cvcnts is pointed which might determine the need for conservation energy transfers and because of variable operating restrictions in the event the transfers are required, estimates of the transactions and revenues under the proposed S'chedul.e have not been made.
To the extent that Section 35.13'(b)(1) of the Commission's Regulations is dccmed applicable to this filing, waiver of that regulation is requested based on the foregoing.
Copies of this letter and its enclosures will be furnished promptly to the Regulatory Commissions of New Yoxk, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, and the District of Columbia, for their information.
'I A check in the amount of $ 600.00 is enclosed pursuant to Section 36.2(f) of i the Commission's Regulations to covex the filing fee determined as follows:
$ 500 for a moderately complex rate schedule for one Group and $ 100 for concurrence by the other Group.

Page 1 of '4 PJM SUPPORT FOR FIXED RATES IN SCllEDULE 8.02 ISSUED DECEHBI',R 12'977 PJM -costs necess..rily represent a composite, of various company costs', based on different'plent sites and types of construction, different c..pitalizations, different service lives, different methods of tax accounting, and different state and local tax obligations. For the purpose of these supporting computations, average PJH values are used and the computed costs in all cases are higher tl>an the proposed fixed rates.
Char e for Generation Service The fixed charge for generation service is based on the following components.
'a) The levelized annual cost of a current installation of a combustion turbine, which is the same approach used for installed capacity charges internal to PJH (Docket No. ER 77-301).
(b) The annual cost for the combined investments of the PJM companies in transmission facilities 110 KV and above.
Since such investments were m de over .". span of. years, the return rate used is based on average embedded costs.

'l) Page 1 3 INTERCONNECTION AGREE!'IENT BET'WEEN THE NYPP GROUP AND HE PJM GROUP Issued: December 12, 1977 Effective:
CONS ERVATIOt1 ENERGY Section 1.10 of this Agreement provides that the NYPP Group and the PJH Group shall set forth in additional schedules the arrangements for specific services to be rendered in furtherance of the intent of this Agreement. This Schedul~ 8.02 becomes effective according to terms of the accepted filing and replaces Schedule 8.01, which by its terms expired on December 31, 1975.
Conservation Energy shall be considered to be electric energy that is scheduled between the Groups solely for the purpose of meeting an energv shortage which is caused by curtailments of energy sources which result from fuel unavail-ability, governmental actions or widespread disasters, any one of which i., beyond control of the Groups, making it necessary for the deficient Group to conserve energy resources over an extended period of time. The following are the terms and conditions governing the generation and supply of such Energy by one Group for the other, and also the transmission of Conservation Energy to and from systems inter-connected with the NYPP Group or the PJH Group. As used herein'he term "week" shall mean any seven consecutive days.
Section 1 - Services to be Rendered 1.1 Either Group may arrange with the other, for periods of one or more weeks, for the delivery of Conservation Energy. The Groups shall determine the number of megawatts per hour to be supplied, the period of'upply, the estimated cost and the source of supply if the supplying Group is in turn obtaining it from another system, or the ultimate destination if a Group is
Page 2 of 3 in turn arranging for the supply for another system.
1.2 During each weekly period for which Conservation Energy has been
/
arranged, the Group that has agreed to supply such Energy will,'pon call, deliver megawatt-hours to the receiving Group in amounts up to and including the number of megawatt-hours equal to the product of the period of supply in hours and the number of megawatts then arranged for, at a rate of delivery which is agreeable to both Groups. After arrangements for. Conservation Energy have been made the deliveries may be reduced only when conditions arise that could not have been reasonably foreseen at the time of the arrangement and cause the arrangement to be burdensome to the supplying, 'receiving or trans-mitting systems.
Section 2 - Compensation 2.1 The receiving Group shall pay the supplying Group for each kilowatt-hour of Conservation Energy supplied from the supplying Group's system an amount equal to 1107. of the out-of-pocket replacement costs of generating such Energy plus 3.75 mills per kilowatt-hour.
2.2 The receiving Group shall pay the supplying Group for each kilowatt-
,hour of Conservation Energy purchased by the supplying Group from another system for delivery to the receiving Group, the amount paid therefor by the 1
supplying Group plus 1. 75 mills per ki iowa t t-hour.
2.3 For 'purposes of this Schedule, out-of-pocket replacement cost of supplying Conservation Energy shall mean out-of-pocket cost of generating such Energy plus or minus an adjustment (tb be made by supplemental bill) to reflect increases or decreases in the cost of fuel on a Btu basis between the cost of fuel at the stations from which the'nergy was delivered during the month in which the Energy was deliverec and the cost of such fuel for the second month after such month of delivery; rovided however, that in circumstances
Page 3 of 3 in which the supplying Group anticipates that it will be unable, despite diligent efforts to ascertain the replacement cost of fuel until I a date subsequent to the second month after the month of delivery, and notification is provided in writing by the supplying Group to the receiving Group, such adjustment shall be made by supplemental bill whenever such replacement cost of fuel becomes available.
Section 3 - Billings an'd Pa ments Bills for the charges fox sexvices supplied in accordance with this Schedule during each month will be rendered by the tenth day of the following month and will be payable on the first banking day common to the parties hereto following the nineteenth day of the month in which they the fifteenth day following receipt of bill. Interest on unpaid amounts on any bill rendered under this Schedule shall accrue at ten percent ( H)%)
per annum from the date due until the date upon which payment is madi .
Section 4 - Termination This Schedule shall remain in effect until December 31, 1978 unless extended by mutual agreement of the HYPP Group and the PJN Group, except the terms of Section 2 and Section 3 shall continue in effect until all bills for Conservation Energy are rendered and payment made therefor.

Enclosed herewith for filing on behalf of the following listed companies are thirty (30) copies of proposed Schedule 8.01 to the NYPP-PJM Interconnection Agreement dated April 9, 1974 which was tendered for filing on June 27, 1974 and assigned Docket No. E-8876.
Central Hudson Gas & Electric Corporation Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Incorporated Long Island Lighting, Company
~ ( New York State Electric & Gas Corporation Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation Orange and Rockland Utilities, Incorporated Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation Referred to collectively as NYPP Group Public Service Electric and Gas Company Philadelphia Electric Company Pennsylvania Power & Light Company Baltimore Gas and Electric Company Potomac Electric Power Company Pennsylvania Electric Company Metropolitan Edison Company Jersey Central Power & Light Company Referred to collectively as PJM Group By Order of the Commission under Docket RM 74-22 (Page 30), the utilities in the Middle Atlantic region were requested to continue to develop appropriate rate schedule supplements for the generation of electric energy as they may be capable of generating to help coal burning utilities should the latter, experience fuel supply emergencies. Pursuant to that request, proposed Schedule 8.01 has been prepared by the parties to expand the provisions for Fuel Conservation Energy transactions contained in the NYPP-PJM Agreement dated March 26, 1974 (Docket No- E-8702) which is on file with the Commission (for example, Central Hudson Gas & Electric Corporation FPC Rate Schedule No. 46).
2>>
Proposed Schedule 8.01 provides for the same arrangements and rates for delivery of Fuel Conservation Energy as contained in the present NYPP-PJH Agreement dated March 26, 1974 and also includes provision for the generation of Fuel Conservation Energy by either Group for the other. Because of the effect of the recent miners'trike on" the coal supply situation, it is xespectfully submitted that good cause exists for waiver of notice requirements and the Commission is hereby requested, pursuant to Section 35.11 of'its Regulations, to waive notice requirements and order the proposed Schedule to be effective as of December 1, 1974. It is further proposed that Schedule 8.01 remain in effect until December 31, 1975, unless extended by mutual agreement of the parties'n view of the fact that the NYPP-PJM Interconnection Agreement dated April 9, 1974 and proposed Schedule 8.01 contain all of the provisions set forth in the NYPP-PJM Agreement dated March 26, 1974, it is requested that the latter Agreement be cancelled as of the time the proposed Schedule 8.01 becomes effective.
All of the signatories to the Agreement have approved this filing and have received copies thereof. This filing is being made on behalf of such signatories by the undersigned in accordance with the authorization contained in Section 5.08 of the NYPP-PJM Interconnection Agreement dated April 9, 1974.
In response to Section 35.12 (a) of the Commission's Regulations, it is pointed out with respect to the fixed rate of 3.0 mills per kilowatthour specified in Section 2.1 for generating Fuel Conservation Energy, that only the NYPP Group is expected to generate such energy under this Agreement, at least for the immediate present. In support of such rate, the NYPP Group stipulates that an incentive must be added to the incremental costs of supplying Fuel Conservation Energy to insure that there is a clear economic reason to encourage the generation of such energy.
The figure of 3.0 mills per kilowatthour was arrived at through negotiations and t;he NYPP Group considers it (
to be an appropriate amount to provide an incentive to encourage the generation of Fuel Conservation Energy. The fixed rate of 1.75 mills per kilowatthour specified in Section 2.2 for delivery of Fuel Conservation Energy from other systems is the same rate as contained in the present NYPP-PJH Agreement dated March 26, 1974-In response to Section 35.12 (b) of the Commission's Regulations, it is pointed out that because of the uncertainty of the availability of fuels, both coal and oil, operating restrictions, and the capability of the supplying party, estimates of the transactions and revenues under the proposed Schedule are impossible to predict.
No new facilities will be installed or modified in order to supply the service..
In response to Section 35.8 (a) of the Commission's Regulations, there are enclosed three copies of a form of Notice of Agreement suitable for pu<lication Sn the Federal Register.
A check in the amount of $ 500 is enclosed pursuant to Section 36.2 (f) of he Commission's Regulations to cover the filing fee.
Copies of this letter and its enclosures will be furnished promptly to the Regulatory Commissions of New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, and the District of Columbia for their information.

Section 1 - Services to be Rendered 1.1 Either Group may arrange with the other, for periods of one or more weeks, for the delivery of Fuel Conservation Energy whenever, in its sole judgment, the Group requested to supply the same has the capability and the fuel resources to make it available.
1.11 Prior to such arrangement for Fuel Conservation Energy,'he number of megawatts to be supplied, the period of supply, the estimated cost, and the sources of supply if the supplying Group is in turn obtaining it from another system, or the ultimate destination if a Group is in turn
2>> Schedule 8.01 arranging for the supply for another system, shall be determined by the Groups. Such determination shall be confirmed in writing, if requested
, by either Group.
1 ~ 12 If such Energy is supplied from the supplying Group's system, it may be reduced only when during such period conditions arise that could not have been reasonably foreseen at the time of the arrangement and cause the arrangement to be burdensome to the supplying Group's system. If the Energy is transmitted by the supplying Group from another system, it may be reduced only (1) when and to"the extent reduced by such other system or (2) when during such period conditions arise that could not have been reasonably foreseen at the time of the arrangement and cause the transmission of the Energy to be burdensome to the supplying Group's system or (3) when a transmission or other limitation in the system of the receiving Group or another'system (other than the receiving Group) interconnected directly or indirectly with the system of the receiving or supplying Group makes it impracticable, as a technical matter, to receive or deliver such'nergy. The supply or transmission of the Energy shall be considered burdensome if continuation would jeopardize service to firm customers on the supplying Group's system.
1.13 For. the purpose of this Schedule, off-peak hours shall be defined to be between the hours of 11:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. Eastern Standard Time or Eastern Daylight Saving Time (whichever Time is in legal force on the system of the supplying Group) on any day other than Sunday, and certain legal holidays, and during any hour on Sunday and such legal holidays.
1 ~ 14 During each weekly period that Fuel Conservation Energy has been arranged for, the Group that has agreed 'to supply such Energy shall upon call deliver megawatthours to the rechiving Group in amounts up to and
0 3<< Schedule 8.01 including the number of megawatt-hours equal to the product of seventy-two (72) hours and the number of megawatts then arranged for ("receiving Group's
. Entitlement" ).
1 15 During the period of the arrangement, the supplying Group and the receiving Group may arrange, as dictated by operating conditions, available generating capability and fuel resources, to deliver and to take, respectively, (1) amounts of Fuel Conservation Energy at a rate of delivery exceeding the number of megawatts then arranged for during the hours specified in Subsection 1.13 or, (2} the receiving Group's Entitlement or some portion thereof, in part during the hours specified in Subsection 1.13, and in part during other hours.
Section 2 - Com ensation 2.1 The receiving Group shall pay the supplying Group for each kilowatt-hour of Fuel Conservation Energy supplied from the supplying Group', ystem an amount equal to 110% of the out-of-pocket replacement cost of generating such Energy plus 3.0 mills'per kilowatthour.
2.2 The receiving Group shall pay the supplying Group for each kilowatt-hour of Fuel Conservation Energy purchased by the supplying Group from another system and supplied during the period of the arrangement the amount paid therefor by the supplying Group, including interest, if any, plus 1.75 mills per kilowatthour which includes compensation for supplying transmission losses.
2.3 For purposes of this Schedule, out-of-pocket replacement cost of supplying Fuel Conservation Energy shall mpan out-of-poaket cost of generating such Energy plus or minus an adjustment (to be made by supplemental bill) to reflect increases or decreases in the cost of fuel on a Btu basis between the cost of fuel at the stations from which the Energy was delivered during the
Schedule 8.01 month in which the Energy was delivered and the cost of such fuel for the second month after such month of delivery; rovided however, that in
. circumstances in which the supplying Group anticipates that it will be unable, despite diligent efforts, to ascertain the replacement cost of fuel until a date subsequent to th'e second month after the month of delivery, and notification is provided in writing by the supplying Group to the receiving Group, such adjustment shall be made by supplemental bill whenever such replacement cost of fuel becomes available.

Washington, D. C. 20426 Attention: Mr. Kenneth F. Plumb, Secretary Gentlemen:
There are filed herewith, on behalf of the following listed companies, thirty (30) conformed copies of a new Interconnection Agreement dated April 9, 1974 between those listed as the NYPP Group and those listed as the PJMl Group:
~ ( Central Hudson Gas & Electric Corporation Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Incorporated Long Island Lighting Company New York St'.ate Electric & Gas Corporation Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation Orange and Rockland Utilities, Incorporated Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation Referred to collectively as NYPP Group Public Service Electric and Gas Company Philadelphia Electric Company Pennsylvania Power & Light Company Baltimore Gas and Elec'tric Company Potomac Electric Power Company Pennsylvania Electric Company Metropolitan Edison Company Jersey Central Power & Light Compdny Referred to collectively as PJM Group The Agreement will be known as the NYPP-PJM Interconnection Agreement and it is requested that it become effective on August 1, 1974.
The documents accompanying this letter include:
- 1. The above mentioned copies of the NYPP-PJM Interconnection Agreement.
June 26, 1974
- 2. A statement of the basis for the fixed rates for capacity and transmission services used in the Agreement and computations in support of these rates.
- 3. A check covering the required filing fee.
- 4. Three copies of a form of Notice of Agreement suitable for publi-cation in the Federal Register, in accordance with the requirements of Section 35.8(a) of the Commission's Regulations.
The NYPP-PJM Interconnection Agreement has been distributed to and has been signed by all parties, indicating the requisite agreement among them. When the Agreement was prepared for signature, an effective date of June 1, 1974 was envisaged, and was so stated on the several schedules. That stated date will be superseded by the effective date assigned when the Agreement is accepted for filing by the Commission. As heretofore mentioned, it is requested that the Agreement become effective on August 1, 1974.
The creation of the NYPP and the construction of new high capacity ties between PJM and southeastern New York made comprehensive pooling arrangements between the PJM Group and the NYPP Group desirable. Interchange transactions between the Groups are currently carried out under an existing agreement now on file with the Commission.
It was made originally in 1951 and has been supplemented or revised on numerous t
occasions. However, of the NYPP Group, only Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation and New York State Electric 6 Gas Corporation are signatories. Thus, it does not provide an appropriate basis on which to build an expanded interconnection agreement suitable to present-day conditions. Accordingly, it is intended that such agreement be cancelled as of the time the NYPP-PJM Interconnection Agreement becomes effective, and an appropriate filing is being made with the Commission to this effect.
'I The NYPP-PJM Intercohnection Agreement provides for the continued parallel operation of the electric systems of the two Groups, for cooperation with regard to matters affecting the development of such systems and the reliable operation of such systems, and for capacity and energy interchange transactions between the two Groups. Except for the addition of new parties, there is no change from existing day-to-day operations or in basic economy and emergency interchange transactions. No new facilities will be installed or modified in connection with instituting this Agreement.
New services are specified for new conditions, including Supplemental Operating Capacity and Energy, Non-Replacement Energy, and transmission related to various capacity transactions. Otherwise, the scope of the Agreement generally parallels that of the PJM Group's agreements with .the Allegheny Power System companies, Virginia Electric and Power Company, and The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company; all of which are on file as rate schedules with the Commission.
Because the services provided and accounted for in the NYPP-PJM Interconnection Agreement are limited to various classes of interchange and related transmission charges, it is impossible to predict the transactions which will take place there-under. The rates for interchange on an economy, emergency, or non-replacement basis will be determined by the same methods used in other interchange agreements of the parties. The PJM Group has no other rates for supplemental services. Neither the NYPP Group nor the PJM Group presently have rates for transmission comparable to those specified in Schedule 6.01. As indicated above, support for the fixed rates for capacity and transmission services is provided in the statement attached.
June 26, 1970 In accordance with Section 36.2(f) of the Commission's Regulations, this
~ (
filing is accompanied by a check for $ '500.
This filing is made by the Manager of the Office of the PJM Interconnection, on behalf of all the parties, under the authorization contain'ed in Section 5.08 of the NYPP-PJM Interconnection Agreement.
Conformed copies of the NYFF-PJM Interconnection Agreement together with copies of this letter and its enclosures will be furnished promptly to the Regulatory Commissions of New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia and the District of Columbia for their information.
Very truly yours, Wilmer S. Kleinbach Manager Enclosure
NYPP-P JM INTERCONNECTION AGREEMENT STATEMENT OF THE jjASIS OF TjjE RATES FOR CAPACITY AND TRANSMISSION SERVICES AND SUPPORTING COi REPUTATIONS The fixed rates for capacity and transmission services specified in the NYPP-PJM Intercqnnection Agreement can be supported, on a cost basis. These rates are:
- 1. The additional capacity charge of $ 35 per megawatt per day, specified in Schedule 3.01, Section 2.2 and associated with the supply of Supplemental Operating Capacity; and
- 2. The charge for transmission service, related to the delivery or transrqission of certain capacity services, of $ 20 per megawatt per dey, specified in Schedule 6.01, Section 2.1.
~( CAPACITY CjjARGE IN ScjjEDULE 3.01 The $ 35 peg HW-day i's a SECTION 2.2 negotiated rate, intended to compensate the suppliers of the capacity service for some part of their fixed costs for investment in generating and transmission facilities. Out-of-pocket or variable costs are otherwise provided for in the charges for operating capacity.
The considerations entering into the determination of the rate were:
(1) its comparability to a rate used in NYPP for supplemental capacity supplied and utilized within that Group, and (2) recognition that it sjtould be less than (approximately half of) the full capacity cost, such as might be determined for Short-Term Power or comparable firm services. This second consideration is based on the premise that the supply of such capacity service often results in a sharing of reserves and the dependence of o'e Group on the other for reserve capacity, and, consequently, the rate for such service should recognize a sharing of the benefits.
TRANSMISSION CHARGE IN SCHEDULE 6.01 SECTION 2.1 The charge for transmission of capacity is also a negotiated rate that is less than the full cost, based on average transmission investment per unit of system peak load.
SUPPORTING COMPUTATIONS - PJM BASIS PJM costs necessarily represent a composite of various company costs, based on different capitalizations, different service lives, different methods of tax accounting, and different state and local tax obligations. On a representative basis, however, the PJM costs are above the amounts necessary. to support the proposed rates'. Consequently, the compromises involved in the determination of estimated costs on a PJM basis are not of critical importance. For fQrther explanation of computations, see notes whi.ch follow on next page.
Since Supplemental Operating Capaci.ty will most often be supplied by combustion turbines, costs have been determined on the basis of such supply.

Nssss
- 1. Capacity costs are based on the current average PJM companies'nvestment
~
cost for combustion turbine installations, which amounts to $ 110/Kif.
Because the current average age of CT's in PJM is only about 3 years, i.t is appropriate to consider carrying charges based on current rates for debt and preferred stock. The nature of the transactions involved are such that it is appropriate to consider income taxes as being normalized.
Book life for CT's (20 and 25 years in several companies) is considered to be 22.5 years, this being the same as the ADR life used for tax purposes.
s
- 2. Transmission costs are based on 1973 FPC Form 1 total transmission plant investments for PJM companies ($ 2, 140 million), adjusted to exclude the estimated investment ($ 563 million) in facilities used for, or related to step-down transformation to voltages below 110 KVP divided by the 1973 PJM peak load of 30,993 !Q, which amounts to $ 51/KW. Such trans-mission has a greater current average age than the CT's. Return on that transmission investment is, therefore, based on representative imbedded costs; and the income tax computation provides fo'r a deduction representing the levelized difference between tax and book depreciation.
- 3. Computed income taxes are those applicable in Pennsylvania, where t he composite rate is 53%, which is equal to the state rate of 9.5% plus 48% (100-9.5). Other taxes are assumed to be a nominal 1% of depreci.ated plant, which is less than the rate applicable in some parts of PJMP other than Pennsylvania.
4 Fixed 0 & M expenses are estimated at $ 0.50/104/YR for CT's and 2% of gross plant for transmission. A credit against expense is indicated for the CT's, this representing certain benefits retained by the owning company, and hence a reduction in the net cost of the capacity made available to others.
4 The NYPP costs are derived from the composite investment costs to which are applied a levelized annual fixed charge rate. As with the PJH companies, the NYPP member companies utilize different capitalizations, different service lives, different methods of tax accounting and different local tax obligations. The NYPP systems have also used costs determined on the basis of using combustion turbines as a source of supplemental operating capacity.

In view of the strike by coal miners which adversely affects the supply of coal to the parties, and in keeping with the Order of the Federal Power Commission under Docket RM74-22, the Parties to the Agreement have prepared the proposed Schedule 8.02, which provides for the transfer of energy between the Groups during an energy emergency. The Schedule also provides the flexibility to permit transfers of energy to and from systems interconnected with APS or PJM. Proposed Schedule 8.02 replaces Schedule 8.01 which expired on December 31, 1975, In view of the foregoing, transactions to conserve coal may necessitate near term use of the proposed Schedule.
Therefore, it is respectfully submitted that good cause exists for waiver of notice of requirements and the Commission is hereby requested, pursuant to Section 35.11 of its Regulations, to waive notice requirements and order the proposed Schedule to be effective as of January 1, 1978. It is proposed that the Schedule will terminate on December 31, 1978 unless extended by mutual agreement.
Proposed Schedule 8.02 is not intended to and will not take the place of existing Schedules; The Schedule provides that, for the purpose of conserving energy resources, either APS or PJM may 'arrange to obtain from the other con-servation energy when, in the other's judgement, it has the capability and fuel resources to provide the same. Such arrangements are to be scheduled for periods of one or more weeks. The arrangements, including the number of megawatts per hour to be supplied, the period of supply, the source and destination, and the estimated cost, as well as modifications thereto, are subject to mutual a"reement in advance of supply. The Schedule also provides the method for determining com-pensation for such service.
'4 All of the s'gnatories to the Agreement have approved this filing and have received copies thereof. This filing is being made on behalf of such signatories by the undersigned in accordance with the authorization contained in Section 5.6 of the Agreement.
In response to Section 35.13(a) of the Commission's Regulations, it is pointed out that Subsection 2.1 of the proposed Schedule provides that the charge for con-servation energy generated on the supplying group's system will be 110% of the out-of-pocket replacement cost of generating the energy, plus a generation service charge of 3.75 mills per kilowatthour. Subsection 2.3 of the Schedule defines replacement cost of generating the energy as out-of-pocket cost of generating said energy, plus or minus an adjustment (to be made by supplemental bill) to reflect increases or decreases, if any, in the cost of fuel, on a Btu basis, between the month in which the energy is delivered and the second month after such month of delivery. The 3.75 mill per kilowatthour charge is intended to assure that con-servation energy service does not adversely affect the financial capability of the supplying system or result in discrimination to its customers. The charge will cover standby and extra maintenance costs ynd is intended to provide a reasonable contribution to the carrying charges on the facilities involved in generating and transmitting conservation energy. The development of these charges ere shown on Attacl~ents I and II hereto.
Subsection 2.2 of the proposed Schedule provides for a service charge of 1.75 mills per kilowatthour for deliveries of'conservation energy from systems inter-connected with APS ~r PJM. This charge is inteaded to cover losses, administrative
charges and other costs of arranging for and delivering conservation energy from the interconnected systems and to make a reasonable contribution to .the carrying charges of the transmission facilities required to make the transactions possible.
The development of this charge is shown on Attachments' and II hereto.
In response to Section 35.13(b) of the Commission's Regulations, it is pointed out that because of the uncertainty of the coal miner's strike or other events which might determine the need for conservation energy transfers and because of variable operating restrictions in the event the transfers are required, estimates of the transactions and revenues under the proposed Schedule have not been made.
To the extent that Section 35.13(b)(1). of the Commission's Regulations is deemed applicable to this filing, waiver of that regulation is requested based on the foregoing.
'opies of this letter and i'ts enclosures will be furnished promptly to the Regulatory Commissions of Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia, for their information.
A check in the amount of $ 600.00 is enclosed .pursuant to Section 36.2(f) of the Commission's Regulations to cover the filing fee determined as follows:
$ 500 for a moderately complex rate schedule for one Group and $ 100 for concurrence by the other Group.

SCHEDULE 8.02 Page 1 of 3 (REPLACING SCHEDULE 8.01)
TO INTERCONNECTION AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE APS GROUP AND THE PJM GROUP Issued: December 12, 1977 Effective:
COiVSERVATION ENERGY Section 1.8 of this Agreement provides that the APS Group and the PJM Group shall set forth in additional schedules the arrangements for specific services to be rendered in furtherance of the intent of this Agreement. This Schedule 8.02 becomes effective according to terms of the accepted filing and replaces Schedule 8.01, which expired on December 31, 1975 Energy shall be considered to be
'onservation electric energy that is scheduled between the, Groups solely for the purpose of meeting an energy shortage which is caused by curtailments of energy sources which result from fuel unavail-ability, governmental actions or widespread disasters, any one of which is beyond control of the Groups, making it necessary for the deficient Group to conserve energy resources over an extended period of time. The following are the terms and conditions governing the generation and supply of such En r"y by one Group for the other, and also the transmission of Conservation Energy to and from systems inter-connected with the APS Group or the PJM Group. As used herein the term "week" shall mean any seven consecutive days.
Section 1 - Services to be Rendered 1.1 Either Group may arrange with the other, for periods of one or more weeks, for the delivery of Conservation Energy. The Groups shall determine the number of megawatts per hour to be supplied, the period of supply, th estimated cost and the source of supply if the supplying Group is in turn obtaining it from 'another system, or the ultimate destination if a Group 's
Page 2 of 3 in turn arranging for the supply for another system.
1.2 During each weekly period for 'which Conservation Energy has been arranged, the Group that has agreed to supply such Energy will, upon cal'1, deliver megawatt-hours to the receiving Group in amounts up to and including the number of megawatt-hours equal to the product of the period of supply in hours and the number of megawatts. then arranged for, at '
a rate of delivery which is agreeable to both Groups. After arrangements for Conservation Energy have been made the deliveries may be reduced only when conditions arise that could not have been reasonably foreseen at the time of the arrangement and cause the arrangement to be burdensome to the, supplying, receiving or trans-mitting systems.
Section 2 - Compensation 2.1 The receiving Group shall pay the supplying Group for each kilowatt-hour of Conservation Energy supplied from the supplying Group's system an amount equal to 1107. of the out-of-pocket replacement costs of generating such Energy plus 3.75 mills per kilowatt-hour.
receiving Group shall pay the supplying Group for each kilowatt-I'.2 The
,hour of Conservation Energy purchased by the supplying Group from another system for delivery to the receiving Group, the amount paid therefor by the supplying Group plus 1.75 mills per kilowatt-hour.
2.3 For purposes of this Schedule, out-of-pocket replacement cost of supplying Conservation Energy shall mean out-of-pocket cost of generating such Energy plus or minus an adjustment (to be made by supplemental bill) to reflect increases or decreases in the cost of fuel on a Btu basis between the cost of fuel at the stations from which the'nergy was delivered during the month in which the Energy was deliverec and the cost of such fuel for the second month after such month of delivery; rovided however, that in circumstances
Page 3 of 3 month in which the Energy was delivered and the cost of such fuel for the second month after such month of delivery; rovided however, that in circum-stances in which the supplying Group anticipates that it will be unable, despite diligent efforts, to ascertain the replacement cost of fuel until a date subsequent to the second month after the month of delivery, and notification is provided in writing by the supplying Group to the receiving Group, such adjustment shall be made by supplemental bill whenever such replacement cost of fuel becomes available.
Section 3 - Billings and Pa ents Bills for the, charges for services supplied in accordance with this Schedule during each month will be rendered by the tenth day of the following month and will be, payable on the first banking day common to the parties hereto following the nineteenth day of the month in which they are rendered, exce~tthat supplemental bills shall be due and payable on the fifteenth day>following receipt of bill. Interest on unpaid amounts on any bill rendered under this Schedule shall accrue at ten percent (10%) per annum from the date due until the date upon which payment is made.
Section 4 - Termination This Schedule shall remain in effect until December 31, 1978 unless extended by mutual agreement of the APS Group and the PJM Group, except the terms of Section 2 and Section 3 shall continue in effect until all bills for Conservation Energy are rendered and payment made therefor.

Sincerely, Wilmer S. 1U.einbach Manager WSK:par Attachments cc: Parties to the PJH Agreement APS-PJM Agreement NYPP<<PJM Agreement Messrs. D. J. Bardin W. W. Lindsay
Attachment 1 FERC Re uest (1) Cost support justifying the level of the 20% amount by which energy values are increased under Sections (d) ancZ (e) of Schedule 7 '3 - Revision No. 1 to the PJM Agreemeat.
PJM Res onse Schedule 7.03 covers the accounting among the parties to the PJM Agreement fox interchange of energy with others not party to that Agreement.
The proposed revision makes no change in Section (d) which has been in effect since September 1, 1977 and provides for PJM receipts of Emergency,,
4 Supplemental or Short Term energy. Under the terms of PJM'a Agreements with outside systems, such energy is billed to PZf at the aupplier's cost plus 10%. This bill is paid by thc PJM party 'or parties which receive energy for which they cannot provide replacement va'lu s because they have insufficient available generating capacity to supply their individual system load. Following the accepted procedure for all PJM interchange accounting, which is to allocate to the supplying and receiving parties equal shares of the difference between the cost and the replacement value, it is necessary under computer process ng of the accounting, to assign a value, of the supplier's cost plus 20% to those PJM parties receiving such outside energy in order to develop the PJM bill of the supplier's cost plus 10%. ~
A new Section (e) for PJM receipts of Conservation Energy is proposed in Revision No. 1 to Schedule 7.03 to accommodate the special internal allocations required for such transactions. However, the internal accounting procedures with respect to replacement values and the reascas therefor are the same as Section (d).
2-1 Attachment 2 FFRC Request (2) The cost components contained in the out-of-pocket replacement costs of generating Conservation Energy together with justification for the '107. adder to such costs.
(3) The proposed method of computing thc replacement cost of fuel.
~Res onse The proposed provisions for compensating the supplier of Conservation Energy are the same as were in effect during 1974 and follow the guidelines set forth in FPC Order No. 520 (Docket No. 75-3) issued November 29, 1974, which prescribed the following costing method:
"---the generating---systems shall each be entitled to recover the following costs:
(c) incremental cost associated with its respective generation of emergency service to meet inadequate supplies of fuel or energy. Incremental costs shall mean such operating and main'tcnance expenses incurred that would not have been otherwise incurred if such service had not been furnished. Such expenses shall include the incremental exp nses incurred in the production of the energy so furnished, including incremental fuel expense (i.e., replacement fuel costs),
incremental operating labor and supplies, incremental maintenance, labor and suppli.es, and incremental administrative and general expenses."
Section 2.3 of proposed Schedule 8.02 to both the APS-PB1 Agreement and the NYPP-PJM Agreement states the general concepts involved in computing the out-of-pocket replacement cost of fuel. These are the same concepts that were in effect during 1974 as contained in former Schedule 8.01 to both Agreemcnts. The following elaborates on these concepts:
Generation cost rates for each unit are based on current costs of fuel which are usually based on long-term contractual commitments with suppliers. These commitments, in turn, are related to anticipated normal
2-2 fuel use. When generating units are called upon to supply Conservation Energy, several factors affect thc" fuel cost.
(1) Some major source of fuel - in this instance coal - is in critically short supply on a regional basis.
(2) Unusually high demands will develop for alternate fuels.
(3) Spot purchases of alternate fuels ~.-ill be needed because the requirements will most likely exceed pxevious contrac-tual commitments.
(4) The cost of spot purchases will fluctuate and will not be available in time to adjust the generation cost rates at the time of delivery of Conservation Energy.
(5) Thc energy content (BTV) of spot-purchased fuel may be different from the fuel covered by previous contractual commitmcnts.
When Conservation Energy is supplied, the generation cost rates that are applied in the billing include a certain fuel cost in cents per million BTU. When the cost and BTU content of thc additional fuel needed to generate such energy are finally determined, any difference (increase or decrease) in the fuel cost in cents per mi)lion BTU from that used in the original billing will be billed by sup'plemental bill.
These arxangements axe designed to avoid the supplier of Conscrva-tion Energy suffering a loss due to the unpredictable fluctuations in fuel cost brought on by a regional ox rational shortage or curtailment ox a major energy source, Experience with spot purchases of coal during thc oil embargo in 1974 and with spot purchases of oil in early 1977 when abnormally cold weather curtailed coal-fixed generation has demonstrated the need and justification for these arrangements.
'I
2-3
\
The 10% adder to out-of-pocket replacement costs of generation is customarily applied throughout the electric utility industry to adjust the bills determined by certain known costs to reflect those other costs incurred in the generation and delivery of energy in emer-gency situations which, because the actual amounts are not known with certainty, are not included as known quantities in the generation cost rate. In the supply of Conservation Energy, cost uncertainties include.'a)
Reduced efficiency due to fuel auali.tv. Muchof the conservation energy will necessarily be generated from fuel not delivered under long-term contracts or as part of the utility's normal fuel purchase practices Unusual quantities of fuel purchased on the spot market, perhaps from different suppliers, may well be of a different quality than that assumed in determining the generation cost rate.
(b) Accuracy of heat rates. There are likely to be some uncertainties as to the absolute accuracy of the heat rates used in pricing incremental fuel costs.
(c) Incidental additional ooeratins. labor costs. The supply of Conservation Energy will result in higher than normal hours of unit operati'on This is likely to result in a certain amount of overtime and unusual labor expenses difficult to quantify.
(d) Unusual fuel Durchase. stora e and financing costs. Spot-purchased fuel, in addition to being of different quality than that utilized as part of the util.ity's normal supply, customarily involves above-normal expenses in the purchase,,
storage and financing of the fuel

(c) The estimated generating costs of 30 mills per kilowatthour used in the computation of losses was based on the following criteria.
Current operating conditions on the NYPP system indicate that the energy produced to provide conservation energy would be supplied from low-sulphur residual fuel oil generation and, on occasion, from combustion turbines. Energy produced to replace system losses would be generated from the same equip.-..ent.
Currently, energy costs on the older low-sulphur residual fuel oil fired units are about 26.5 mills per kilowatthour. Current energy costs on'the combustion turbines are in excess of 43 mills per kilowatthour. Given the approximate mix of the two types or units in generating conservation energy, the figure of 30 mills pez kilowatthour to proviae losses was estimated.

~Rcs onset The previously filed Schedules 8.01 to the APS-PZif and NYPP-PZii Agreemcnts, which were in effect during 1974, provided for a generation service charge of 3.0 mills/KHiiR for thc supply of Conservation Energy. Those schedules werc accepted for filing only thxce years ago after lengthy conferences by the FPC with respect to Docket No. 74-22. In proposed Schedules 8.02, this scrvicc charge has been incrcascd to 3.75 mills/KUR to reflect thc increases that have taken place in the past three years in plant investmcnt for generation and transmission facilities, and in annual charges associated therewith.
Following the FPC Order under Docket No. 74-22, the FPC issued on November 29, 1974 Order No. 520 (Docket No. 75-3) amending the Re ulations under the Federal Power Act with respect to the operational and ratemaking principles and guidelines which the Commission will apply to requests for "emergency" orders pursuant to Section 202 (c) of the Act. Part 32.62 of said Order entitled "Emergencies Related to Inadequate Supplies of Fuel and Enexgy for Electric Generating Plants" provides in Section E for Rates and Charges as follows:
"If the service to be rendered has characteristics of firm service similar to that rendered by the supplier to its other customers, the generating and transmitting systems shall each be enti led to recover the following costs:
(a) an allocable portion of 'nvestment costs of its respective i production plant, including return on 'nvestment, depreciation, income taxes, property and othcx taxes related to plant investment and insurance; (b) an <<llocable portion of investment costs of its respective transmission plant, including return on investment, depxcciation, income taxes, proper y and other taxes related to plant investment and insurance;"
5-2 The parties proposing new Schedu'es 8.02 for Conservation Energy transactions consider the supply of such energy as a firm service since it is arranged in advance for periods of one or more weeks and for specified quantities of hourly delivery.
Such arranged-for deliveries may be reduced only i'f unforeseen conditions cause the delivery to be burdensom to any system involved in the transaction. Therefore, the foregoing FPC guidelines for firm service hav been applied in the development of the 3.75 mills/KWHR service charge which is a negotiated charge acceptable to all parties to these Agreements. This charge for all groups of parties is lower than the computed annual charges on an hourly basis per KW as shown below.

The only change proposed in Schedule 7.03 is a change in the fixed capacity charge associated with the supply of Short Term Power from $ 450 to $ 500 per megawatt per week. The proposed increase is to bring the price in line with present costs.
The proposed rate is the same as accepted for filing by the Commission for similar services under agreements between the PJM Group and CEI and between the APS Group and AEP. Support for the proposed rate is provided in the enclosed statement.
Because of the uncertainty of the needs of either party or others for Short Term Power, it is impossible to predict the transactions and revenues under the proposed Schedule.
No facilities are required to be installed or, modified in order to provide the services covered by the proposed Schedule.
Copies of this letter and its enclosures will be furnished promptly to the Regulatory Commissions of Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, West Virginia and the District of Columbia for their information.
A check in the amount of $ 1,100 is enclosed pursuant to Section 36.2(e) of the Commission's Regulations to cover the filing fee determined as follows: $ 100 for a nominal rate schedule for one party and $ 100 for each additional submittal for each of the other parties to the Agreement.

SCHEDULE 7.03 (REPLACING SCHEDULE 7.02)
TO INTERCONNECTION AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE APS GROUP AND THE PJM GROUP Issued August 16, 1976 Effective September 20, 1976 SHORT TERM POWER Section 1.8 of this Agreement provides that the APS Group and the PJM Group shall set forth additional schedules to this Agreement to provide for special services to be rendered in furtherance of the intent of this Agreement.
This Schedule 7.03 replaces Schedule 7.02 as one such additional schedule.
Short Term Power shall be considered to be electric power that is scheduled on a weekly basis between the Groups to meet the needs of a deficient Group from a Group having'excess or from others with which it has similar agreements. Schedules may be established for one or more weeks and as used herein the term "week" shall mean any seven consecutive days.
Section 1 - Services to be Rendered F 1 Either Group may arrange to reserve from the other, for periods of one or more weeks, such Short Term Power whenever, in the sole judgment of the party requested to reserve the same, such power is available. Upon request the supplying party shall furnish to the reserving party estimates of loads, capacities, and other relevant data by means of which the reserving party can assess the availab'ility of such poser 1.11 Prior to each reservation of Short, Term Power, the number of megawatts to, be reserved, the period of reservation, and the source of the power if the supplying party is in turn reserving power from another system, or the ultimate destination of the power if the reserving party is in turn reserving power for another system, shall be determined by
Schedule 7 03 the parties. Such determination shall be confirmed in writing.
1 12 If the reservation is supplied from the supplying party' system, it may be reduced only when during such period conditions arise that could not have been reasonably foreseen at the time of the reservation and cause the I
reservation to be burdensome to the supplying party' system. If the reservat.ion is transmitted by the supplying party from another system, it may be reduced only when and to the extent reduced by such other system or when during such period conditions arise that could not have been reasonably foreseen at the time of the reservation and cause the trans-mission to be burdensome to the supplying party's system.
The supply or transmission of the reservation shall be considered burdensome if continuation would jeopardize service to firm customers on the supplying party's system or interrupt prior commitments by the supplying party for the delivery of similar conmitments to another system or systems.
Any reduction in reservation shall be confirmed in writing by the supplying party and shall specify the amount of megawatts reduced and the period of reduction.
1.13 luring each period that Short Term Power has been reserved, the party that has agreed to supply such power shall upon call provide operating capacity ("S'.sort Term Operating Capaci.ty") of up to and including the number of megawatts then reserved and deliver electric energy ("Short Term Energy" )
to the reserving party at a rate during each hour of up to and including such number
3w Schedule 7.03 Section 2 - Com ensation 2.1 The reserving party shall pay the sup'plying party for any period that Short Term Power is reserved.
2 ll $ 500 per megawatt reserved per week to be supplied from the supplying party's system less, for each day (other than Sunday) during any part of which the amount of such Short Term Power from the supplying party.'s system is reduced by the supplying party, one-sixth of said $ 500 per megawatt of the reduction; plus 2.12 for each megawatt of the reserved Short Term Power purchased by the supplying party from another system (a) the amount paid therefor by the supplying party plus (b) for each week such Short Term Power is reaerved $ 125 per megawatt less, for each day (other than Sunday) during any part of which the amount of such Short Term Power is reduced by the supplying party for reasons as set forth in 1.12, one-sixth of said $ 125 per megawatt of the reduction; plus 2.13 1107. of the cost of providing Short Term Operating Capacity called for under Subsection 1.13 of this Schedule that is relat. d to the Short Term Power provided on the supplying party's own system and 110/ of the amount paid by the supplging party for all other such Short Term 'Operating Capacity; plus 2 14 1107. of the cost, adjusted for trarsmission losses, of supplying Short Term Energy called for under Subsection 1 ~ 13 of this Schedule that is related to the Short Term Power provided on the supplying party's own system and 1107. <<f the amount paid by the supplying party, adjusted for transmission losses. for all other such Short Term Energy

APS GROUP-PJM GROUP INTERCONNECTION AGREEMENT STATEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE FIXED RATE FOR SHORT TERM P(MER AND SUPPORTING COMPUTATIONS The f$,xed capacity charge of $ 500 per megawatt per week specified in Schedule 7.03, Section 2.11 is a negotiated rate intended to compensate the supplier of Short Term Power for full fixed annual costs for investment in generating ynd transmission facilities, prorated for the period of the reservation, on the basis that Short Term Power is available capacity reserved by the supplying system for the deficient system for periods of one or more weeks and constitutes a firm capacity transaction. Out-of-pocket or variable costs are otherwise provided for in the charges for Short Term Operating Capacity and Short Term Energy.

The 17% and 15% figures is believed, under it all the circumstances and taken in the aggregate, will provide a fair return over the life of the agreement and with the recognition that particular com-ponents may vary somewhat from time to time during the life of the agreement.
The negotiated $ 0.50 short-term power capacity charge theoretically produces an annual carrying charge rate on the basis of production and tra~.s-mission plant of 10.8% and a cost of money corn>onent of approximately 7.5%.
The reciprocal short-term power capacity "ate was negotiated at arms-1ength. The contribution to fixed charges as evidenced by the carrying charge rate and cost of money component above are acc ptable only as to this type of reciprocal transaction and the publishing by the Allegheny System of such rates $ s not to be deemed for any purpose whatsoever, that such carrying charge rate oz co~t of money component thereof is adequate or reasonable for any other typo of service.
SUPPORTING COMPVI'ATIONS - PJM BASIS PJM costs necessari represent a composite. of various company costs, based, on different capitalizations, different service lives, different methods of t z accounting, and different state and local tax obligations. On a representative basis, however, the PJM costs are above the amounts necessary to support the proposed rates. Consequently, the compromises involved in the determina ion o estimated costs on a PJM basis are not of critical importance. For further.
explanation of computations, see notes which follow 'on next page.
Since Extended Emergency and Short Term Power services will most often be supplied by combustion turbines, costs have been determined on the basis of such supply.

Notes
- 1. Capacity costs are based on the current average PJM companies'nvestment cost for combustion turbine installations, which amounts to 4112/IG<. The return used for combustion turbines is based on rates for debt and preferred equity which are representative of the rates incurred by the member companies during the period when the bulk of the PJM combustion turbines were installed.
- 2. Transmission costs are based on the 1975 FPC Form 1 total transmission plant investments for PJM companies, adjusted to exclude the estimated investment in facilities used. for or related to step-down transformation to voltages below 110 KV. This transmission investment ($ 1807 million), divided by the all-time PJM peak of 30,993 YiW yields $ 58/KH. Such transmission has been installed over many years, and. accordingly the return on transmission investment is based. on representative imbedded costs.
- 3. In addition to return, depreciation, and. income tax', the carrying charge rates reflect the use of double declining balance depreciation, an R-2 mortality dispersion characteristic, the 4$ investment tax credit and lpga other taxes. The composite
~
income tax rate is 52.Q which includes the Pennsylvania gross receipts tax.
- 4. Fixed 0&M expenses are estimated at $ 0.50/KW/YR for CT's and @ of gross plant for transmission.

This Schedule 8.01 has been agreed to by the parties in accordance therewith.
Fuel Conservation Energy shall be considered to be electric energy that is scheduled between the Groups, for periods of one or more weeks during off-peak hours as defined in this Schedule, solely for the purpose of conserving fuel inventories. The following are the terms and conditions governing the generation and supply of such Energy by one Group for the other, and also the transmission of Fuel Conservation Energy to and from systems interconnected with the APS Group or the PJM Group. As used herein the term "week" shall mean any seven consecutive days.
Section 1 - Services to be Rendered 1.1 Either Group may arrange with the other, for periods of one or more weelcs) for the delivery of Fuel,Conservation Energy whenever, in its sole judgment, the Group requested to supply the same has the capability and the fuel resources to make it available.
1.11 Prior to such arrangement for Fuel Conservation Energy, the number of megawatts to be supplied, the period of supply', the estimated cost, and the sources of supply if the supplying Group is in turn obtaining it from another system, or the ultimate destination if a Group is in turn
arranging for the supply for another system, shall be determined by the Groups. Such determination shall be confirmed in writing, if requested by either Group.
1.12 Lf such Energy is supplied from the supplying Group's system, it may be reduced only when during such period conditions arise that could not have been reason..ble foreseen at the time of the arrangement'nd cause the arrangement to be burdensome to the supplying Group's system. If the Energy is transmitted by the supplying Group from another system, it may be reduced only (1) when and to the extent reduced by such other system or (2) when during such period conditions arise that could not have been reasonably foreseen at the time of the arrangement and cause the transmission of the Energy to be burdensome to the supplying Group's system or (3) when a transmi sion or other limitation in the system of the receiving Group or another system (other than the receiving Group) interconnected directly or indirectly with the system of the receiving Group makes it impracticable, as a technical matter, to receive such delivery from the supplying Group. Any reduction in the amount of Ene gy shall be confirmed in writing by the supplying or receiving Group as the case may be, and shall specify the amount of megawatts reduced and the period of reduction.
1 13 For the purpose of this Schedule, off-peak hours shall be defined to be between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. Eastern Standard Time or Eastern Daylight Saving Time (whichever Time is in legal force on the system of the supplying Group) on any day other than Sunday, and certain legal holidays, and during any hour on Sunday and such legal holidays.
1.14 During each weekly period that Fuel Conservation Energy has been arranged for, the Group that has agreed to supply such Energy shall upon
call deliver megawatthours to the receiving Group in amounts up to and including the number of megawatt-hours equal to the product of seventy-two (72) hours and the number of megawatts then arranged for ("receiving Group's Entitlement" ).
1 15 During the period of the arrangement, the supplying Group and the receiving Group may arrange, as dictated by operating conditions, available generating capability and fuel resources, to deliver and to take, respectively, (1) amounts of Fuel Conservation Energy at a rate I
of delivery exceeding the number of megawatts then arranged for during l
the hours specified in Subsection 1.13 or, (2) the receiving Group's Entitlement or some portion thereof, in part during the hours specified in Subsection 1.13, and in part during other hours.
Section 2 - Com ensation 2.1 The receiving Group shall pay the supplying Group for each kilowatt-hour of Fuel Conservation Energy supplied from the supplying Group's system an amount equal to 110% of the out-of-pocket replacement cost of generating such Energy plus 3.0 mills per kilowatthour.
2 2 The receiving Group shall pay the supplying Group for each kilowa t-hour of Fuel Conservation Energy purchased by the supplying Group from another system and supplied during the period of the arrangement the amount paid therefor by the supplying Group plus 1.75 mills per kilowatthour.
2.3 For purposes of this Schedule, out-of-pocket replacement cost of supplying Fuel Conservation Energy shall mean out-of-pocket cost of generating such Energy plus or minus an adjustment (to be made by supplemental bill) to reflect increases or decreases in the cost of fuel on a Btu basis between the cost of fuel at the stations from which the Energy was delivered during the month in which the Energy was delivered and the cost of such fuel for the second month after such month of delivery.
4 Section 3 Termination This Schedule shall remain in effect for one year unless extended by mutual agreement of the APS Group and the PJM Group.

- 1) Proposed Schedules 1.06, 4.02, 5.02, 6.02, 7.02 and 9.01, all dated November 14, 1974.
- 2) A summary of Schedule revisions and additions.
- 3) A statement of the basis for the fixed rates for services provided in the Agreement and computations in support of these rates.
- 4) A check covering the required filing fee.
- 5) Three copies of a form of Notice of Agreement suitable for publication in the Federal Register, in accordance with the rcquircments of Section 35.8 (a) of the CDIIJttission's Regulations
It is requested that the proposed Schedules become effective on December 16, 1974.
,All of the parties to the Agreement have "approved this filing and have received copies thereof. This filing is being made by the Manager of the Office of the PJH Interconnection on behalf of all the parties, under the authorization contained in Section 5.6 of the Agreement.
Copies of this letter and all enclosures will be furnished promptly to the Regulatory Commissions of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, West Virginia, Ohio and the District of Columbia for their information.
The revisions are proposed (1) to clarify the wording of the Agreement, (2) to bring it more nearly in conformance with other agreements, (3) to increase certain charges to a more equitable basis or to more nearly cover present costs of service, and (4) to provide for charges for new services and services involving third parties. The reasons for the several changes involving pricing are more specifically described as follows:
Emer,encv Enemy 'Transactions - In Schedule 5.02, provision is made for alternative pricing for emergency energy. The existing agreement provides only for a charge based on the supplying Group's cost plus 10%. Where there is normally a wide spread between the generating costs of the two Groups, pricing on this basis sometimes results in a charge for emergency energy that is less than the charge that, except for the emergency classification, would be made at the same time for an economy transaction. Also, where there is a wide spread, the costs for emergency transactions in one direction are sometimes far different from those in the other direction. It is the agreement of the Groups that these differences are neither desirable nor equitable, and the proposed alternative pricing will tend to correct this condition.
Extended Emergency Service - Schedule -5.02 also provides that an additional charge of $ 35 per megawatt per day, or alternatively, when the service is not provided directly but from third parties, a charge of $ 21 per, megawatt per day be applied in connection with the supply of emergency service. The $ 35 represents about half of a x'easonable fixed charge for installed capacity service, i.e., about half of the fixed charge for Short Term Power ($ 450 per megawatt per week spread over six days equals
$ 75 00 per megawatt per day). The Extended Emergency Service is to be supplied when it is not possible or not appropriate to arrange for a Short Term Power transaction.
Because the added charge is applied automatically and for short periods and results from the mutual assistance that one Group provides for the other, it is appropriate that the rate be at such level (approximately 50% of the full capacity charge) that there is a sharing of benefits of the reduction in capacity that results from interconnected operation.
Short Term Power >> The rate for Short Term Power that is provided in Schedule 7~02 is increased and the conditions of supply are more completely defined. The increase is to bring the price in line with present costs and other agreements of the APS Group. The better definition of the service conditions is necessary if greater reliance is to be placed on such transactions and if they are to be effectively used in reducing the overall costs of providing capacity. The present agreement provides for a charge of $ 0.06 per kilowatt per day; based on a 5-day week this is equivalent to $ 300 per megawatt per week. The revision increases this charge to $ 450 (based on a 6-day week); it also provides that a charge of $ 125 per megawatt per week be applied when the Short Term Power is delivered by either Group to or from another area.
There werc no Short Term Power transactions between the APS Group and the PJM Group during the twelve months immediately preceding the date on which the proposed increase in rate provided in Schedule 7.02 is to become effective.
Hence, no comparison of revenues is possible. Rates are proposed for new services including Extended Emergency Service, and delivery of Short Term Power or Extended Emergency Servicq by either Group to or from a third party. Because of the uncertainty of the needs of either Group or others for the services provided for, it is impossible to predict the transactions and revenues under the proposed schedules.
The proposed rates for Short Term Power are similar to rates previously filed by the APS Group, and the proposed rates for Extended Emergency service are similar to rates previously filed by the PJM Group in an interconnection agreement with the llew York Power Pool except that in the latter agreement the
, service was identified as "Supplemental Operating Capacity". Support for the several proposed pates is provided in the enclosed statement.
No facilities are required to be installed or modified in order to provide the services covered by the proposed revisions.
A check i.n the amount of $ 500 is enclosed pursuant to Section 36.2 (f) of the Commission's Regulations to cover the filing fee.

SCflEDULE 7. 02 (REPLACING SCHEDULE 7.01)
TO INTERCONNECTION AGREEl KNT BETWEEN THE APS GROUP AND THE PZif GROUP Issued November 14, 1974 Effective December 16, 1974 SHORT TERM POWER Section 1.8 of this Agreement provides that the APS Group and the PJM Group shall set forth additional schedules to this Agreement to provide for special services to be rendered in furtherance of the intent of this Agreement.
This Schedule 7,02 replaces Schedule 7.01 as one such additional schedule.
Short Term Power shall be considered to be electric power that is scheduled on a weekly basis between the Groups to meet the needs of a deficient Group from a Group having excess or from others with which it has similar agreements. Schedules may be established for one or more weeks and as used herein the term "week" shall mean any seven consecutive days.
Section 1 - Services to be Rendered 1..1 Either Group may arrange to reserve from the other, for periods of one or more weeks, such Short Term Power whenever, in the sole judgment of the party requested to reserve the same, such power is available. Upon request the supplying party shall furnish to the reserving party estimates of loads, capacities, and other relevant data by means of which the reserving I
party can assess the availability of such power.
1.11 Prior to each reservation of Short Term Power, the number of megawatts to be reserved, the period of reservation, and the source of the power if the supplying party is in turn reserving power from another system, or the ultimate destination of the power if the reserving party is in turn reserving power for another system, shall be determined by
Schedule 7.02 the parties. Such determination shall be confirmed in writing.
1.12 If the reservation is supplied from the supplying party' system, it may be reduced only when during such period conditions arise that could not have been reasonably foreseen at the time of the reservation and cause the reservation to be burdensome to the supplying party' system. If the reservation is transmitted by the supplying party from another system, it may be reduced only when and to the extent reduced by such other system or when during such period conditions arise that could not have been reasonably foreseen at the time of the reservation and cause the trans-mission to be burdensome to the supplying party'. system.
The supply or transmission of the reservation shall be considered burdensome if continuation: would jeopardize service to firm customers on the supplying party's system or interrupt prior commitments by the supplying party for the delivery of similar commitments to 'another system or systems.
Any reduction in reservation shall be confirmed in writing by the supplying party and shall specify the amount of megawatts reduced and the period of reduction.
1~ 13 During each period that Short Term Power has been reserved, the party that has agreed to supply such power shall upon call provide operating capacity ("Short Term Operating Capacity" ) of up to and including the number of megawatts then reserved and deliver electric energy ("Short Term Energy" )
to the reserving party at a rate during each hour of,up to and including such number.
w3w Schedule 7.02 Section 2 - Com ensation 2.1 The reserving party shall pay the supplying party for any r
period that Short Term Power is reserved.
2.11 $ 450 per megawatt reserved per week to be supplied from the supplying party's system less, for each day (other than Sunday) during any part of which the amount of such Short Term Power from the supplying party's system is reduced by the supplying party, one-sixth of said $ 450 per megawatt of the reduction; plus 2.12 for each megawatt of the reserved Short Term Power purchased by the supplying party from another system (a) the amount paid therefor by the supplying party plus (b) for each week such Short Term Power is reserved $ 125 per megawatt less, for each day (other than Sunday) during any part of which the amount of such Short Term Power is reduced by the supplying pa'rty for reasons as set forth in 1.12, one-sixth of said $ 125 per megawatt of the reduction; plus 2.13 110% of the cost of providing Short Term Operating Capacity called for under Subsection 1.13 of this Schedule that is related to the Short Term Power provided on the supplying party's own system and 110% of the amount paid by the supplying party for all other such Short Term Operating Capacity; plus 2.14 110% of the cost, adjusted for transmission losses, of supplying Short Term Energy called for under Subsection 1.13 of this Schedule that is related to the Short Term Power provided on the supplying party's own system and 110% of the amount paid by the supplying party, adjusted for transmission losses, for all other such Short Term Energy.

. Section 3 - Termination 3.1 Either party upon one year prior written notice to the other may terminate this Schedule.
SCHEDULE 9.01 TO INTERCOiVNECTIOiV AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE APS GROUP AViD THE PS) GROUP Issued November 14, 1974 Effective December 16, 1974 NON-REPLACEMENT ENERGY TRANSACTIOVi S Section 1.8 of this Agreement provides that the APS Group and the PJM Group shall set forth additional schedules to this Agreement to provide for special services to be rendered in furtherance of the intent of this Agreement. This Schedule 9.01 is one such additional schedule.
The Parties recognize that from time to time occasions may arise when it may be impracticable to arrange Economy Energy transactions as provided for under Section 2 of Schedule 4.02 and at the same time one Group may have electric energy
("Non-Replacement Energy" ) which it is willing to make available from its own system or from sources outside its own system, or both, that can. be utilized advantageously for short intervals by the other Croup. Either Group may schedule from the other Non-Replacement Energy whenever, in the sole judgment of the Group requested to supply the same, such energy is available. Prior to each delivery of Non-Replacement Energy, the amount and time of delivery shall be determined by the Parties.
Non-Replacement Energy supplied by one Group shall be charged to and paid for by the other Group on the basis of the cost of gener'ating it and the amount paid for it to such systems not a.party to this Agreement, all adjusted for transmission losses, plus ten percent (10%) of such cost and amount as so adjusted.
APS-P JH INTERCONNECTIOiN AGREEtKilT STATEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE FIXED RATES FOR EXTENDED EMERGENCY AND SHORT TERM POWER SERVICES AND SUPPORTING COMPUTATIONS The fixed routes for Extended Em rgency and Short Term Power services specified in the APS-PJM Interconnection Agreement can be supported on a
'ost basis. These rates are:
1 The additional capacity charge of $ 35 per megawatt per day specifi'ed in Schedule 5.02 and associated with the supply of Extended Emergency Service; and
- 2. The capacity charge of $ 450 per megawatt per week specified in Schedule 7.02, Section F 11 and associated with the supply of Short Term Power; and
- 3. The charge related to the delivery to or from third parties of certain capacity services of $ 21 per megawatt per day specified in 5.02 and $ 125 per megawatt per week speci. fied in Schedule 7.02.
CAPACITY CHARGE IN SCHEDULE 5.02 II The $ 35 per MW-day is a negotiated rate, intended to compensate t;he suppliers of Extended Emergency Service for some part of their fixed costs for investment in generating and transmission facilities. Out-of-pocket or variable costs are other-wise provided for in the charges for operating, capacity and energy.
In the determination of the rate, it was recognized that it should be less than (approximately half of) the full capacity cost as determined for Short Term Power on the premise that the supply of Extended Emerg'ency Service often results in a, sharing of reserves and the dependence of one Group on the other for reserve capacity, and, consequently, the rate for such sergei.ce should recognize a sharing of the benefits.
CAPACITY CHARGE IN SCHEDULE 7.02 The $ 450 per MW-week is a negotiated. rate intended to compensate the supplier of Short Term Power for full fixed annual costs for investment in generating and transmission facilities, prorated for the period of the reservation, on the basis that Short Term Power is available capacity reserved by the supplying system for the deficient system for periods of one or more weeks and constitutes a firm capacity transaction. Out<<of-pocket or variable costs are otherwise provided for in the charges for Short Term Operating Capacity and Short Term Energy.
DELIVERY CHARGES IN SCHEDULES 5.02 AND 7-02 The charge for delivery of capacity to or from a third party is also a negotiated rate that is less than the full cost, based on average transmission investment per unit of system peak load.
I
SUPPORTING COMPUTATIONS - PJM BASIS PJM costs necessarily represent a composite of various company costs, based on different capitalizations, different service lives, different methods of tax accounting, and different state and local tax obligations. On a representative
( basis, however, the PJM costs are above the amounts necessary to support the proposed rates. Consequently, the compromises involved in the determination of
~
estimated costs on a PJM basis are not of critical importance. For further explanation of computations, see notes which follow on next page.
Since Extended Emergency and Short Term Power services will most often be supplied 1
~
by combustion turbines, costs have be"n determined on the basis of such supply.

Notes r
1 Capacity costs are based on the current average PJM companies'nvestment cost for combustion turbine installations, which amounts to $ 110/KW.
Because the current average age of CT's in PJM is only about 3 years, it is appropriate to consider carrying charges based on current rates for debt and preferred stock. The nature of the transactions involved is such that it is appropriate to consider income taxes as being normalized.
Book lifo for CT's (20 and 25 years in several companies) is considered to be 22,5 years, this being the same as the ADR life used for tax p<<poseO ~
2 Transmission costs are based on 1973 FPC Form 1 total transmission plant investments for PJH companies ($ 2,140 million), adjusted to exclude the estimated investment ($ 563 million) in facilities used for, or related to step-down transformation to voltages below 110 KV, divided by the 1973 PJM peak load of 30,993 MW, which amounts to $ 51/KW. Such trans-mission has a greater current average age than the CT's Return on that transmission investment is, therefore, based on representative imbeddeg costs; and the income tax computation provides for a deduction representing the levelized difference between tax and book depreciation.
- 3. Computer income taxes are those applicable in Pennsylvania, where the composite rate is 53%, which is equal to the state rate of 9.5/ plus 48/e (100-9.5). Other taxes are assumed to be a nominal 1/ of depreciated plant, which is less than the rate applicable in some parts of PJM, other than Pennsylvania.
- 4. Fixed 0 & M expenses are estimated at $ 0 '0/KW/YR for CT's and 2% of gross plant for transmission. A credit against expense is indicated for the CT's, this representing certain benefits retained by the owning, company, and hence -a reduction in the net cost of the capacity made available to others.

Taking into account our best estimate of future conditions, an annual rate of 17/ (including operation and maintenance) has been used in this study. Where inclusion of operation and maintenance charges is not appropriate 15% has been used. When considered over the entire life of the agreement, the above figures are of necessity approximations of the components. It is not intended'o in-dicate that each such component will or should be fixed, at all times, at any given figure. The 17% and 15% figures it is believed, under all the circum-stances and taken in the aggregate, will provide a fair return over the life of the agreement and with the recognition that particular components may vary some-what from time to time during the life of the agreement.

- 1) Proposed Schedules 1.02, 4.02, 5.02, 6.02, 7.02 and 9,01, all dyted November 12, '1975.
- 2) A summary of Schedule revisions and additions.
- 3) A statement of the basis for the fixed rates for services provided in the Agreement and computations in support of these routes.
- 4) A check covering the required, filing fee.
- 5) Three copies of a form of Notice of Agreement suitable for publication in the Federal Register, 'in accordance with the requirements of Section 35.8 (a) of the Commission's Regulations.
It .is requested that the proposed Schedules become effective on December 15, 1975.
All of the Parties to the Agreement have approved this filing and have received copies thereof. This filing is being made by the Manager of the Office of the PJM Interconnection on behalf of all the Parties, under the authorization contained in Section 5.6 of the Agreement.
Copies of this letter and all enclosures will be furnished promptly to the Regulatory Commissions of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, Ohio and the District of Columbia for their information.
The revisions are proposed (1) to clarify the wording of the Agreement, (2) to bring it more nearly in conformance with other agreements, (3) to increase certain charges to a more. equitable basis or to more nearly cover present costs of service, and (4) to provide for charges for new services and services involving third Parties. The reasons for the several changes involving pricing are more specifically described as follows:
Extended Emer enc Service - Proposed Schedule 5.02 provides that, under certain specified conditions, an additional charge of $ 35 per megawatt per day, or alternatively, when the service is not provided directly but from third Paities, a charge of $ 21 per megawatt per day, be applied in connection with the s'upply of emergency service. The $ 35 represents about half of a reasonable fixed charge for installed capacity service, i.e., about half of the fixed charge for Short Term Power ($ 500 per megawatt per week is equivalent to $ 71.00 per megawatt per day).
The Extended Emergency Service is to be supplied when it is not possible or not appropriate to arrange for a Short Term Power transaction. Because the added charge is applied automatically and for short periods and results from the mutual assistance'hat one Party provides for the other, it is appropriate that the rate be at such level (approximately 50% of the full capacity charge) that there is a sharing of benefits of the reduction in capacity that results from interconnected operation.
Short Term Power - The rate for Short Term Power that is provided in Schedule 7.02 is increased and the conditions of supply are more completely defined.
The increase is to bring the price in line with present costs and other agreements of CEI. The better definition of the service conditions is necessary if greater reliance is to be placed on such transactions and if they are to be effectively used in reducing the overall costs of providing capacity. The present agreement provides for a charge of $ 0.06 per kilowatt per day; based on a 5-day week this is equivalent to $ 300 per megawatt per week. The revision increases this charge to $ 500 (based on a 6-day week); it also provides that a charge of $ 125 per megawatt per week be. applied when the Short, Term Power is delivered by either Party.to or from another aiea.
There were, no Short Term Power transactions between CEI and the PJM Group during the twelve months immediately preceding the date on which the proposed increase in rate provided in Schedule 7.02 is to become effective. Hence, no comparison of revenues is possible. - Rates are proposed for new services including Extended Emergency Service, and delivery of Short Term Power or Extended Emergency Service by either Party to or from a third Party. Because of the
't uncertainty of the needs of either Party or others for the services provided for, is impossible to predict the transactions and revenues under the proposed Schedules.
The proposed pates for Short Term Power are similar to rates previously filed by CEI, and the proposed rates for Extended Emergency Service are similar to rates previously filed by the PJH Group in interconnection agreements with the Allegheny Power Syst: em Group and the New York Power Pool except that in the latter agreement the service was identified as "Supplemental Operating Capacity".
Support for the several proposed rates is provided in the enclosed statement.
No facilities are required to be installed or modified in order to provide the services covered by the proposed revisions.
A check in the amount of $ I,300 is enclosed to cover the filing fee in accordance with the Commission's Regulations determined as follows: $ 500 for a moderately complex Rate Schedule for one Party pursuant to Section 36.2 (f) and
$ 100 for each additional submittal for each of the other Parties to the Agreement pursuant to Section 36.2 (e).

TO INTERCONNECTION AGREEMENT BETWEEN CEI AND THE PJM GROUP Issued November 12, 1975 Effective December 15, 1975 EMERGENCY OPERATING CAPACITY AND ENERGY TRANSACTIONS
.Section 1.5 of this Agreement provides for emergency operating capacity and emergency energy transactions. Such emergency transactions shall be defined and accounted for as outlined below.
Section 1 Emer enc 0 eratin Ca acit 1.1 An emergency operating capacity transaction is a scheduled trans-action wherein one Party supplies operating capacity for the other Party which said other Party cannot supply in its own system.
1.2 Emergency operating capacity supplied by one Party shall be charged to and paid for by the other Party on the basis of the cost of such supply and the amount paid for capacity obtained for this purpose from other systems not Signatories to this Agreement, plus ten percent (10%) in each case. When a Party supplies such emergency operating capacity to the other Party from generating capacity not specifically operated for such supply, the cost of the supplying Party shall be the weighted average cost of its highest cost marginal capacity in operation at the time which is equal in amount to such emergency operating capacity.
Section 2 - Emer enc Ener 2.1 An emergency energy transaction is a scheduled transaction wherein one Party supplies energy to the other Party which said other Party cannot supply in 'its own system.
<<2 Schedule 5.02 2.2 Emergency energy supplied by one Party shall be charged to and paid for by the other Party on the basis of the cost of generating it and the amount paid for it to systems not Signatories to this Agreement, all adjusted for transmission losses, plus ten percent (10/) of such cost and amount as so adjusted.
Section 3 Extended Emer enc Service 3.1 whenever emergency operating capacity or emergency energy is supplied by one Party to the other Party for a period exceeding two f
calendar days, the above charges and payments shall be increased by an additional capacity charge of $ 35 per megawatt per day based on the maximum hourly supply of capacity or energy, so long as the capacity and energy so supplied is supplied directly by the supplying Party from its own capacity. To the extent the maximum capacity or energy supplied exceeds the capacity or energy which could have been supplied directly, an additional transmission charge of $ 21 per megawatt per day shall be substituted for the $ 35 per megawatt.
3.2 In the event the emergency operating capacity-or energy supplied by one Party to the other is scheduled for delivery to a system not a Signatory to this Agreement, the above mentioned additional charges shall be applied on the- first day of such supply and all subsequent days thereafter.

SCHEDULE,7. 02 (REPLACING SCHEDULE 7.01)
TO INTERCONNECTION AGREEMENT BETWEEN CEI AND THE PJM GROUP Issued November 12, 1975 Effective December 15, 1975 SHORT TERM POWER Section 1.8 of this Agreement provides that CEI and the PJM Group shall set forth additional schedules to this Agreement to provide for special services to be rendered in furtherance of the intent of this. Agreement. This Schedule 7.02 replaces Schedule 7.01 as one such addit,ional schedule.
Short Term Power shall be considered to be electric power that is scheduled on a weekly basis between the Parties to meet the needs of a deficient Party from a Party having excess or from others with which it has similar agreements. Schedules may be established for one or more weeks.and as used herein the term "week" shall mean any seven consecutive days.
Section 1 - Services to be Rendered 1.1 Either Party may arrange to reserve from the other, for periods of one or more weeks, such Short Term Power whenever, in the sole judgment of the Party requested to reserve the same, such power is available. Upon request the supplying Party shall furnish to the reserving Party estimates of loads, capacities, 'and other relevant data by means of which the reserving P
Party can assess the availability- of such power.
1'.ll Prior to each reservation of Short Term Power, the number of megawatts to be reserved, the-period of reservation, and the source of the, power if the supplying Party is in turn reserving power from another system, or the ultimate destination of the power if the reserving Party is in turn reserving power for another system, shall be determined by
Schedule 7.02
'he Parties. Such, determination shall be confirmed in writing.
1.12 If the reservation is supplied from the supplying Party' system, it may be reduced only when during such period con-ditions arise that could not have been reasonably foreseen at the time of the reservation and cause the reservation to .
be burdensome to the supplying Party's system. If the reservation is transmitted by the supplying Party from another system, it may be reduced only when and to the extent reduced by such other system or when during such period conditions arise that could not have been reasonably foreseen at the time of the reservation and cause the transmission to be burdensome to the supplying Party's system. The supply or transmission of the reservation shall be considered burdemsome if continuation would jeopardize service to firm customers on the supplying Party's system or interrupt prior corznitments by the supplying Party for the ddlivery of similar commitments to another system or systems. The supplying Party shall notify the receiving Party promptly of any reduction in reservation and shall specify the amount of megawatts reduced and the period of reduction. Such notification shall be confirmed in writing.
1.13 During each period that Short Te'rm Power has been reserved, the Party that has agreed to supply such power shall upon call ~
provide operating capacity ("Short Term Operating Capacity" ) of up to and including th'e number ofI megawatts then reserved and deliver electric energy ("Short Term Energy" ) to the reserving Party at a rate during each hour of up to and including such number.
~ 03<< Schedule 7.02 Section 2 - Com ensation 2.1 The reserving Party shall pay the supplying Party for any
~ 'eriod that Short Term Power is reserved.
2.11 $ 500 per megawatt reserved per week to be supplied from the supplying Party's system less, for each day (other than Sunday) during any part of which the amount of such Short Term Power from the supplying Party's system is reduced by the supplying Party, one-sixth of said $ 500 per megawatt of the reduction; plus 2.12 for each megawatt of the reserved Short Term Power purchased by the supplying Party from another system (a) the amount paid therefor by the supplying Party plus (b) for each week such Short Term Power is 'reserved $ 125 per megawatt less, for each day (other than Sunday) during any part of which the amount af such Short Term Power is reduced by the supplying Party k

'arty's own system and 110% of the amount paid by the supplying Party for all other such Short. Term Operating Capacity; plus 2.14 110% of the cost, adjusted for transmission losses, of supplying Short Term Energy called for under Subsection 1.13 of this Schedule that. is related to the Short Term Power provided on the supplying Party's own system and 110% of the amount paid by the supplying Party, adjusted for transmission losses, for all other such Short Term Energy
Schedule 7.02 Section 3 - Termination 3.1 Either Party upon one year prior written notice to the other may terminate this Schedule.
SCHEDULE 9.01 TO INTERCONNECTlON AGREEiKNT BETWEEN CEI AND THE PJM GROUP Issued November 12, 1975 Effective December 15, 1975 NON REPLACEMENT ENERGY TRANSACTIONS Section 1.8 of this Agreement provides tl>at CEI and the PJM Group shall set forth additional schedules to this Agreement to provide for special services to be rendered in furtherance of the intent of this Agreement. This Schedule 9.01 is one such additional schedule.
The Parties recognize that from time to time occasions may arise when it may be impracticable to arrange Economy Energy transactions as provided for under Section 2 of Schedule 4.02 and at the same time one Party may have electric energy I
("Non-Replacement Energy" ) which it is willing to make available from its own system or from sources outside its own system, or both, that can be utilized advantageously for short intervals by the other Party. Either Party may schedule from the other Non-Replacement Energy whenever, in the sole judgment of the Party requested to supply the same, such energy is available. Prior to each delivery of Non-Replacement Energy, the amount and time of delivery shall be determined by the Parties.
Non-Replacement Energy supplied by one Party shall be charged to .and paid for by the other Party on the basis of the cost of generating
\
it and the amount paid for it to such systems not a Signatory to this Agreement, all adjusted for transmission losses, plus ten percent (10%) of such co t and amount as so adjusted.
tg CEI-PZif INTERCONNECTION AGREE/KNT STATEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE FIXED RATES FOR EXTENDED EMERGENCY AND SHORT TERH POWER SERVICES AND SUPPORTING COHPUTATIONS The fixed rates for Extended Emergency and Short Term Power services specified in the proposed Schedules to the CEI-PJM Interconnection Agreement can be supported on a cost basis. These rates are:
- 1. The additional capacity charge of $ 35 per megawatt per day specified in Schedule 5;02 and associated with the supply of Extended Emergency Service; and
- 2. The capacity charge. of $ 500 per megawatt per week specified in Schedule 7.02, Section 2.11 and associated with the supply of Short Term Power; and
- 3. The charge related to the delivery to or irom third parties of certain capacity services of $ 21 per megawatt per day specified in 5.02 and $ 125 per megawatt per week specified in Schedule 7.02.
CAPACITY CHARGE IN SCHEDULE 5.02 The $ 35 per N4-day is a negotiated rate, intended to compensate the suppliers of Extended Emergency Service for some part of their fixed costs for investment in generating and transmission facilities. Out-of-pocket or variable costs are other-wise provided for in the charges for operating capacity and energy.
In the determination of the rate, it was recognized that it should be less than (approximately half of) the full capacity cost as determined for Short Te~ Power on the premise that the supply of Extended Emergency Service often results in a sharing of reserves and the dependence of one Party on the other for reserve capacity, and, consequently, 'the rate for such service. should recognize a sharing of the benefits.
CAPACITY CHARGE IN SCHEDULE 7.02 r
The $ 500 per HM-week is a negotiated rate intended to compensate the supplier of Short Term Power for full fixed annual costs for investment in generating and transmission facilities, prorated for the period of the reservation, on the basis that Short Term Power is available capacity reserved by the supplying system f'r the deficient system for periods of one or more weeks and constitutes a firm capa'city transaction. Out-of-pocket or variable costs are otherwise provided for in the charges for Short Term Operating Capacity and Short Term Energy.
DELIVERY CHARGES IN SCHEDULES 5.02 AND 7.02 t The charge for delivery of capacity to or from a third party is also a negotiated rate that is less than the full cost, based on average transmission investment per unit of system peak load.
SUPPORTING C041PUTATIONS P Jt i BASIS PJH costs necessarily represent. a composite of various company costs, based on different capitalizations, different service lives, differ'ent methods of tax accounting, and different state and local tax obligations. On a representative basis, however, the PJH costs are above the amounts necessary to support the proposed rates. Consequently, the compromises involved in the determination of estimated costs on a PJM basis are not of critical importance. For further explanation of computations, see notes whi.ch follow on next page.

SUPPORTING COMPUTATIONS - PJM BASIS (CONT'D) r Notes
- 1. Capacity costs are based on the current average PJM companies'nvestment cost for combustion turbine installations, which amounts to $ 110/KW.
Because the current average age of CT's in PJM is only about 3 years, it is appropriate to consider carrying charges based on current rates for debt and preferred stock. The nature of the transactions involved is such that it is appropriate to consider income taxes as being normalized Book life. for CT's (20 and 25 years in several companies) is considered to be 22.5 years, this being the same as the ADR life used for tax purposes.
- 2. Transmission costs are based on 1973 FPC Form 1 total transmission plant investments for PJM companies ($ 2,140 million), adjusted to exclude the estimated investment ($ 563 million) in facilities used for, or related to step-down transformation to voltages below 110 KV, divided by the 1973 PJM peak load of 30,993 MW, which amounts to $ 51/KM. Such trans-mission has a greater current average age than the CT's. Return on that transmission investment is, therefore, based on representative imbedded costs; and the income tax computation provides for a deduction representing the levelized difference between tax and book depreciation.
- 3. Computed income taxes are those applicable in Pennsylvania, where the composite rate is 53%, which is equal to the state rate of 9.5% plus 48% (100-9.5). Other taxes are assumed to be a nominal 1% of depreciated plant, which is less than the rate applicable in some parts of PJM, other
'han Pennsylvania.
- 4. Fixed 0 6 M expenses are estimated at $ 0.50/lQ</YR for CT's and 2% of gross plant for transmission. A credit against expense is indicated for
.the CT's, this representing certain benefits retained by the owning company, and hence a reduction in the net cost of the capacity made available to others.
, These supporting computations for PJM are identical 'with those submitted'o the Federal Power Commission in 1974 in support of rates contained in revisions to the APS-PJM Agreement (Docket E-9111) and in the new NYPP-PJM Agreement (Docket E-8876). Both submittals were accepted for filing. The same computations are submitted here-with because changes in-pertinent financial data since the previous'ilings are such that the computed costs would not be significantly different using later data.
The computed costs shown above adequately support the rates proposed in this submittal which are identical with those o'f the previous filings except the proposed rate for Short Term Power is $ 500 per megawatt per week instead of $ 450., '

Enclosed herewith for filing with the Commission are eighteen (18) copies of proposed Schedule 8.02 replacing Schedule 8.01 of the Interconnection Agreement
.between The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company (CEI) and the Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland (PJM) Group dated September 30, 1965, as supplemented (the Agreement), which is on file with the Commission and is identified by the Rate Schedule numbers shown for each listed company.
~Com an FPC Rate Schedule Number The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company 4 Public Service Electric and Gas Company 38 Philadelphia Electric Company 29 Pennsylvania Power & Light Company 44 Baltimore Gas and Electric Company 19 Potomac Electric Power Company 24 Pennsylvania Electric Company 49 Metropolitan Edison Company 29 Jersey Central Power & Light Company 24 By Order of the Commission under Docket RM74-22 (Page 30), the utilities in the Middle Atlantic region were requested to continue to develop appropriate rate schedule supplements for the generation of electric energy as they may be capable of generating to help coal burning utilities should the latter experience fuel supply emergencies. Pursuant to that request, proposed Schedule 8.02 has been prepared by the Parties to the Agreement to expand the provisions for Fuel Conservation Energy transactions contained in Schedule 8.01 dated April 5, 19?4 which became effective January 1, 1974 as part of the Order under Docket RM74-22.
Present Schedule 8.01 provides only for the delivery by CEI to the PJM Grottp of Fuel Conservation. Energy. Proposed Schedule 8.02 includes the same provisions and rate as contained in present Schedule 8.01 and also includes provision for
the generation of Fuel Conservation Energy by the PJM Group for CEI and the delivery by the PJM Group to CEI of such energy from other'systems. Because of the effect of the recent miners'trike on the coal supply situation, it is respectfully submitted that good cause exists for waiver of notice requirements and the Commission is herePy requested, pursuant to Section 35.11 of its Regulations, to waive notice requirements and order the proposed Schedule to be effective as of December 1, 1974.
It is proposed that Schedule 8.02 remain in effect until December 31, 1975, unless extended by mutual agreement of the Parties.
All of the signatories to the Agreement have approved this filing and have received copies thereof. This filing is being made on behalf of such signatories by the undersigned in accordance with the authorization contained in Section 5.6 of the Agreement.
In response to Section 35.12 (a) of the Commission's Regulations, it is pointed out that the fixed rates proposed in Section 2 for generating Fuel Conservation Energy, and for delivery of such energy from other systems, were arrived at through negotiation and are intended to make a reasonable contribution to the fixed charges and expenses, other than fuel, associated with the generation and transmission facilities required to make the transactions possible, and to cover the cost of average transmission system losses, administrative and other costs of arranging for and delivering Fuel Conserve'ation Energy. For PJM, such costs are in excess of the generation rate of 3.0 mills per kilowatthour in Section 2.1 and the delivery rate of 1.75 mills per kilowatthour in Section 2.2, as shown in the attached state-ment. The CEI delivery rate of 1.25 mills per kilowatthour in Section 2.3 is the same rate specified in present Schedule 8.01 and CEI's costs are in excess of that rate.
In response to Section 35.12 (b) of the Commission's Regulations,'t is pointed out that because of the uncertainty of the availability of fuels, both coal and oil, operating restrictions, and the capability of the supplying party, estimates of the transactions and revenues under the proposed Schedule are impossible to predict.
No new facilities will be installed or modified in order to supply the service.
In response to Section 35.8 (a) of the Commission's Regulations, there are enclosed three copies of a form of Notice of Agreement suitable for publication in the Federal Register.
A check in the amount of $ 500 is enclosed pursuant to Section 36.2 (f) of the Commission's Regulations to cover the filing fee.
~ 1 Copies of this letter and its enclosures will be furnished promptly to the Regulatory Commissions of Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, and the District of Columbia for their information.
Very truly yours, L

SCHEDULE 8.02 OF THE CEI-PJM INTERCONNECTION AGREEMENT PJM STATEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE FIXED RATES FOR GENERATION AND DELIVERY OF FUEL CONSERVATION ENERGY AND SUPPORTING COMPUTATIONS The PJM fixed rates for generation and delivery of Fuel Conservation Energy specified in Section 2.1 and 2.2 in Schedule 8.02 of the CEI-PJM Interconnection Agreement are negotiated rates intended to make a reasonable contribution to the fixed annual charges and expenses, other than fuel, associated with the generation and transmission facilities required to make the transactions possible, and to cover the cost of average transmi'ssion system losses, administrative, and other costs of arranging for and delivering Fuel Conservation Energy. These rates can be supported on a cost basis as shown on page 2.
The cost data used in support of these rates is the same as submitted by PJM in support of other fixed rates specified in the NYPP-PJM Interconnection Agreement dated April 9, 1974 which was tendered for filing on June 27, 1974 and assigned Docket No. E-8876, and in proposed revised Schedules to the APS-PJM Interconnection Agreement which were tendered for filing on November 15, 1974 and assigned Docket No.
E-9111.
The capacity cost data, shown was developed for combustion turbines because the services provided for in the Agreements listed in the second paragraph above will most often be supplied by such equipment. It is recognized that Fuel Conservation Energy will most likely be supplied from fossil-fired steam units which would have higher investment costs. Because the proposed fixed rate for generating Fuel Conservation Energy is less than the costs shown for combustion turbines, no effort was made to develop the higher costs for fossil-fired steam units.
The transmission cost data excludes that portion of total transmission plant investments below 110 KV because such lower voltage facilities would generally not be involved in;bulk power transfers.
The transmission losses were determined by load flow analysis using off-peak system loads and reasonable transfers of Fuel Conservation Energy in both directions - east to west transfers for coal conservation and west to east transfers for oil conservation. Although the magnitude of the losses was different depending on the direction of the transfer, the cost to supply the losses was also different.
One off-set the other, with 'the result that the cost of supplying average system losses
'for transfers in either direction was essentially the same.
The administrative component was determined by dividing the annual expenses of operating the PJM Interconnection Office in 1973 by the quantity of energy interchanged among PJM systems and between PJM and adjacent systems.
PJM SUPPORTING COMPUTATIONS PJM costs necessarily represent a composite of various company costs, based on different capitalizations, different service lives, different methods of tax accounting, and different state and local tax obligations. On a representative basis, however, the PJH costs are above the amounts necessary to support the proposed rates. Consequently, the compromises involved in the determination of c:atimated costs on a PJH basis are not of critical importance.

PJH SUPPORTING COi~fPUTATIONS Notes 1~ Capacity costs are based on the current average PJii1 companies'nvestment cost for combustion turbine installations, which amounts to, $ 110/KW.
Because the current average age of CT's in PWi is only about 3 years, it is appropriate to consider carrying charges based on current rates for debt and preferred stock. The nature of the transactions involved is such that it is appropriate to consider income taxes as being normalized.
Book life for CT's (20 and 25 years in several companies) is considered to be 22 5 years, this being the same as the ADR life used for tax purposes.
2 Transmission costs are based on 1973 FPC Form 1 total transmission plant investments for PJM companies ($ 2,140 million), adjusted to exclude the estimated investment ($ 563 million) in facilities used for, or related to step-down transformation to voltages below llOKV, divided by the 1973 PJM peak load of 30,993 bM, which amounts to $ 51/KA. Such trans-mission has a greater current average age than the CT's. Return on that transmission investment is, therefore, based on representative imbedded costs; and the income tax computation provides for a deduction representing the levelized difference between tax and book depreciation.
3 Computed income taxes are those applicable in Pennsylvania, where the composite rate is 53%, which is equal to the'tate rate of 9.5% plus
.48% (100-9.5). Other, taxes are assumed to be a nominal 1% of depreciated plant, which is less than the rate applicable in some parts of PJH, other than Pennsylvania.
- 4. Fixed 0 6c 11 expenses are estimated at $ 0.50/KU/YR for CT's and 2% of gxoss plant for tiansmission. A credit against expense is lndicated for the CT's, this representing certain benefits retained by the owning company, and hence a reduction in the net, cost of the capacity made available to others.
UNITED STATES OF iQKRICA FEDERAL POMER COMMISSION CEI - PJM Group ) Docket No. E-Inteiconnection Agreement ) Date NOTICE OF INTERCONNECTION AGREEMENT Take notice that on December , 1974 The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company (CEI) and the Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland Group (PJM Group) tendered for filing proposed Schedule 8.02 dated 1974, to the Interconnection Agreement between them dated September 30, 1965, which is filed with the Commission under the following Rate Schedule designations:
~tom an FPC Rate. Schedule The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company FPC No. 4 Public Service Electric and Gas Company 38 Philadelphia Electric Company 29 Pennsylvania Power & Light Company 44 Baltimore Gas and Electric Company 19 Potomac Electric Power Company 24 Pennsylvania Electric Company 49 Metropolitan Edison Company 29 Jersey Central Power & Light Company 24 The proposed Schedule expands the provisions for Fuel Conservation Energy transactions by making provision and specifying charges for the generation of Fuel Conse'rvation Energy by the PJM Group for CEI and the delivery by the PJM Group to CEI of such energy from other systems. The proposed fixed charges for such services were'rrived at through negotiation and are the same as specified in other Energy filings by the PJM Group. Because of the current uncertainty of Fuel'onservation fuel supplies and the possibility that transactions will be required imminently under the
proposed Schedule, the Parties have requested that the Commission waive its notice requirements and that the proposed Schedule become effective December 1, 1974. It shall remain in effect until December 31, 1975 unless extended by the Parties. No new facilities will be installed nor will existing facilities be modified in connection with the proposed Schedule.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with reference to the subject matter of this Notice should, on or before file with the Federal Power Commission, 825 North Capitol Street, N.E., Washingtin, D.C. 20426, petitions to intervene or pr'otest in accordance with the requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 1.8 or 1.10). All protests filed with the Commission will be considered by it in determining the appropriate action to be taken but will not serve to make the protestants parties to the proceeding. Persons wishing to participate as a party in any hearing therein must file petitions to intervene in accordance with the Commission's Rules. The documents referred to herein are on file with the Commission and available for public inspection.

SCHEDULE 8.02 (REPLACING SCHEDULE 8.01)
TO INTERCONNECTION AGREEMENT BETWEEN CEI AND THE PJM GROUP Issued December 11, 1974 Effective December 1, 1974 FUEL CONSERVATION ENERGY Section 1.8 of this Agreement provides that CEI and the PJM Group shall set forth in additional schedules the arrangements for specific services to be rendered in furtherance of the intent of this Agreement. This Schedule 8.02> which replaces Schedule 8.01, has been agreed to by the Parties in accordance therewith.
Fuel Conservation Energy shall be considered to be electric energy that is scheduled between the Parties during off-peak hours as defined in this Schedule, solely for the purpose of conserving fuel inventories. The following are the terms and conditions govexning the generation and supply of such Energy by the PJM Group for CEI, and also the transmission of Fuel Conservation Energy to and from systems interconnected with CEI or the PJM Group.
Section 1 - Services to be Rendered 1.1 CEI may arrange with the PJM Group for periods of one or more weeks for I
the generation and supply of Fuel Conservation Energy whenever, in its sole judgment, the PJM Group has the capability and the fuel resources to make such Energy available. Either Party may arrange with the other for the delivery of Fuel Conservation Energy to and from other systems interconnected with CEI or the PJM Group.
1 ll Prior to such arrangement for Fuel Conservation Energy, the number of megawatts to be supplied, the period of supply, the estimated cost, and the sources, of supply if the supplying Party is in turn obtaining it from another system, or the ultimate
destination if a Party is in turn arranging for the supply for another system, shall be determined by the Parties.
Such determination shall be confirmed in writing, if requested. by either Party.
1.12 If such Energy is supplied from the PJM system, it may be reduced only when during such period conditions arise that could not have been reasonably foreseen at the time of the arrangement and cause the arrangement to be burdensome to the PJM system. If the Energy is transmitted by the supplying Party from another system, it may be reduced only (1) when and to the extent reduced by such other system or (2) when during such period conditions arise that could not
'ave been reasonably foreseen at the time of the arrangement and cause the transmission of the Energy to be burdensome to the supplying Party's system or (3) when a transmission or other limitation in the system of the receiving Party or another system (other than the receiving Party) interconnected directly or indirectly with the system of the receiving or supplying Party makes it impracticable, as a technical matter, to receive or deliver such Energy. The supply or transmission of the Energy shall be considered burdensome if continuation would jeopardize service to firm customers of the supplying Party's system.
1 ~ 13 For the purpose of this Schedule, off-peak hours shall be defined to be between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m.
Eastern Standard Time or Eastern Daylight Saving Time (which-ever Time is in legal force on the system of the supplying Group)
'n any day other than Sunday, and certain legal holidays, and during any hour on Sunday and such legal holidays.
1~ 14 During each weekly period that Fuel Conservation Energy has been arranged to be generated and supplied by the PJM Group, the PJM Group shall upon call deliver megawatthours to CEI in amounts up to and including the number of megawatthours equal to the product of seventy-two (72) hours and the number of megawatts then arranged for ("CEI's Entitlement" ).
1.15 During the period of the arrangement, the PJM Group and CEI may arrange, as dictated by operating conditions, available generating capability and fuel resources, to deliver and to take, respectively, (1) amounts of Fuel Conservation Energy at a rate of delivery exceeding the number of megawatts then arranged for during the hours specified in Subsection 1.13 or, (2) CEI's Entitlement or some portion thereof, in part during the hours specified in Subsection 1.13, and in part during other hours.
Section 2 - Com ensation 2.1 CEX shall pay the PJM Group for each kilowatthour of Fuel Conservation Energy supplied from the PJM Group's system an amount equal to 110/ of the out-of-pocket replacement cost of generating such Energy plus three (3.0) mills per kilowatthour.
2.2 CEI shall pay the PJH Group for each kilowatthour of Fuel Conservation Energy purchased by the PJM Group from another system and supplied to CEI during the period of the arrangement the amount paid therefore by the PJM Group plus one and three-quarter (1.75) mills per kilowatthour.
2.3 The PJM Group shall pay CEI for each kilowatthour of Fuel Conservation Energy purchased by CEI from another system and supplied to the PZi Group during the period of the arrangement the amount paid therefore by CEI plus one and one-quarter (1.25) mills per kilowatthour.
2.4 For purposes of this Schedule, out-of-pocket replacement cost of supplying Fuel Conservation Energy shall mean out-of-pocket cost of generating such Energy plus or minus an adjustment (to be made by supplemental bill) to reflect increases or decreases in the cost of fuel on a Btu basis between the cost of fuel at the stations from which the Energy was delivered during the month in which the Energy was delivered and the cost of such fuel for the second month after such month of delivery.
Section 3 - Billin s and Pa ents Bills for the charges for services supplied in accordance with thi,s Schedule during each month will be rendered by the tenth day of the following month and will be payable on the first banking day common to the parti'es hereto following the bills shall be due and payable on the fifteenth day following receipt of bill.
Interest on unpaid amounts on any bill rendered under this Schedule shall accrue at ten percent (10%) per annum from the date due until the date upon which payment is made.
Section 4 - Termination This Schedule shall terminate December 31, 1975 unless extended by mutual agreement of the parties.
