The Cleveland Municipal Electric system, being com-pletely isolated and physically surrounded by CEI has managed with increasing difficulty to maintain a competitive posicion for the benefit of its consumers.

Cleveland has on numerous occasions, beginning with the allocation of power from he Niagara-Hydro Project in 1957 tried, unsuccessfully, to ob:ain a source of power other than its own generation and to make ar-rangements with another bulk power supplier :c coordina:e power supply so as to reduce reserve requirements of Cleveland anc

hereby minimize expense.

5.

For many months Cleveland has sough:

o nego;;ccc 2

per=anen interrie with CZI, but CEI has only engagec in delay ng

accics wherein it :or many monens encouragec v.eveland c he_ievc-l 1: would be willing to have so=e such arrangemen:.

In addi:;cn effor:s to coordinate pcwer supply with CFI, Cleveland me

o 1:3 w :n representatives or suc.< eye rower, nc., Apri i,,.,

.vi.

c explore the possibility of buying bulk power from the Carcina_

?cwer plant which supplies 3uckeye.

The effor was unsuccessful owing to the fac: that Buckeye scated CZ: mus: gran: Cleveland an

_n:erconnection point for delivsry of power if luckeys power were t u-A. as systema:1cs2_y cenics

s be 50.,

to C.. eve anc.

au

.i

Cleveland the use of its transmission system for delivery of power from other systems as it has denied Cleveland a per a-nant interconnection for coordination of power supply between CEI and Cleveland.

6.

Having failed to obtain the proper arrange =ent with CEI, Cleveland filed a complaint against CEI with the Federal Power Coumission May 13, 1971, now docketed as :he Ci:v cf Cleveland, Ohio v. Cleveland Electric Illuminatin2 Com0any, No. E-7631.

This cc= plaint in eart requests an order of :he 7ederal ?cwer Co-wission directing a permanen interconne::Lon between Cleveland and CEI and requests 7?C to fix the carso and condicions of coordination of power supply ~aerween che sys: ens.

No hearing has yet been held in this matter by 72C.

7.

CEI as a me=ber of the CA?CO pool, experiences significan: advantages as to reliability anc cos: of servica.

Cleveland by virtue of the fact that it is an isola ed syst.e is not able to obtain membership in the CA?CO pool, anc th u suffers economic disadv-a3e as a competing power supplier in the Cleveland area.

6.

Cleveland in planning its futura power supply fcresees a neec of 200 Megawsts of ganeration by the :: e cae Cavio-les sa plan: Can be pu in CoC=dreial operation.

If Cleveland 15 :o

t

.S i

remain a competitor in the business of electric power supply it must obtain advantages of scale such as will 'ce achieved

,i by the Davis-Besse plant.

It is, therefore, vitally incarasted i

in the matter of allocation of power from Davis-Besse and it i

is willing and able to pay its proportionate share for cen-struction, operation, maintenance and all other capital anc I

1 operating costs should it obtain an allocation of power from Davis-Besse.

'EEREF0E Cleveland prays the Commission to grant inter-t vent,.on and allow Cleve.and to participate as a ru.. perty in in: crest herein.

Cleveland further prays :he Comm;.sa cn c
