Dear Mr. Schur:
By various letters dated August 1971, Assistant Attorney General Richard W. McLaren requested the comments of certain Georgia Power Company customers regarding antitrust aspects of the operations of the Georgia Power Company in conjunction with his investigation of the Company's application to the Atomic EnergyThe Commission for a nuclear fueled electric Power Section of the Georgia Municipal power generating plant license.
Association has undertakego rcspond to that letter and to you directly on behalf of 48 municipalities- in the State of Georgia which currently operate their own electric power systems and purchase electric energy at wholesale from the Georgia Power Company. A copy of this letter is being forwarded to Mr. McLaren.

As demonstrated below, the Georgia Power Company k i has ach and maintained its monopoly position in the electric We, therefore, energy request that the supply m Georgia in violation of the antitrust laws.
Commission schedule a full hearing on this matter and pre-condition it an nuclear plant license on the Company's termination of its unlawful restr on trade in the power supply market in Georgia.
- 1. The Electric Energy Industry in the State of Georgia The supply of electric energy in the State of Georgia is totally The Company, y operating ti dominated by the Georgia Power Company. l affiliate in the Southern Company holding company system.._. sells e power in Georgia at wholesale to 50 municipalities As theand sole 39 ele ahip corporations and at retailto customers-in 645 communities.
has a complete monopoly on the State's-bulk ively controls the sale of electric energy to all consumers of elect The Company also monopolizes the generation of electric energy in Georgia.
It has acted in concert with.its sister operating companies sinc the 1920's to coordinate the development of.nearly all i sources t al of stea electric energy generation facilities and since 1930 has engaged n cen load dispatching, creating what is commonly referred to as "the So Pool. "
During the 1940's the federal government began In i d States. developin of hydro electric generating facilities in the Southeastern lus Un power te accordance with federal " preference laws" (16 U. S. C. 825s) the surp t generated at these government dams was made available by Power Admmistration (SEPA) to publicly owned electric system Due to the lack of municipally owned ndtransm tracts were entered into between SEPA,. the municipally sup- o the Georgia Power Company.

low cost 3 EPA energy. In return, the Company receives all non-firm capa-biliths of the facilities and is also allowed to schedule and take the energy output of the SEPA dams to suit its overall system needs.
The Georgia Power Company remains today as the sole entity in bulk power supply industry in Georgia. It controls all facilities to generate
, and transmit electric energy in the State. As is demonstrated below, its monopoly position is maintained by the contractual details of its arrangements with SEPA and the municipal systems which purchase wholesale energy from the Company.
- 2. Competitive Implications of Georgia Power Company Activities Beyond the assumption of its- role as sole firm.in the bulk power supply market in Georgia, the Georgia Power Company has continually pur-sued an active policy to maintain its monopoly position. Through its critical role as the delivery agent for SEPA power, the Company has imposed many anti-competitive restraints on publicly owned systems which are unrelated to its transmission function. These anti-competitive restraints have had the effect of not only preventing municipal. systems from developing facilities to reduce their own energy costs or develop alternative sources of energy but also of makmg the consequences of an attempt to develop such alternatives so catastrophic as to preclude their consideration..
These anti-competitive restraints have been imposed upon the municipal systems by various contractual arrangements over a span of years. ,
They are presently contained in four contracts which are attached hereto as exhibits:
Erhibit 1: SEPA-Georgia. Power. Contraet (June 19,.1970)

- a. " Full Requirements" Clause. The most onerous anti-competi-tive restriction to which thegunicipal systems have been subjected is the
" full requirements" clause.- It essentially disables municipal systems to the point where they cannot seriously compete with the Company for new in-dustrial customers at the retail level.
The full requirements clause precludes municipal systems from looking to any alternative sources of wholesale power which include self generation or purchase from TVA and power companies in South Carolina, Florida and Alabama. The terms of the interlocking SEPA-Company and SEPA-Municipal contracts would cause the municipalities to lose their SEPA allocations.should they in any way seek to improve their power costs by ob-taining.any portion of their system requirements from a source other than the- Georgia Power Company. Thus, under the contracts, the municipalities may neither separately or together generate energy to meet future loads nor " peak shave" to reduce their current energy costs.
b.. "Ratcheted' Demand. The company employs a ratchet.5,/i n its rate. schedules to determine the municipal customers' peak demand which compounds the burden of the prohibition against " peak shaving. " We note that such a ratchet was viewed as a potentially dangerous anti-competitive device by the Justice Department in its letter to the Atomic Energy Com-mission of August 2,1971, relating to the Duke Power Company. We believe it u equally serious implications in this case. .
- c. Restricted Voltages and Delivery Points. The Company has restricted the voltage level it will deliver energy to municipal purchasersb which further limits any cornpetitive force that municipal systems might otherwise exert.. The Company supplies energy at no more than 12. 5 KV to wholesale cusMmers at multiple delivery points. Due to the distance limita-tion on the transmission of large blocks of energy at such low voltages, when additional service is needed for a large new customer or for genera 11oad growth new delivery points become necessary. New industrial customers 4_/ Exhibit 1, p.13, 54.2; Exhibit 2, p. 5 51(a)(3); Exhibit 3, p.1; Exhibit 4, First Revised Sheet No. 23 and Second Revised Sheet No. 35.

The Company has also been reluc-tant to establish new delivery points further impairing the municipal systems' ability to serve their customers.
These practices create three additional burdens on the municipali-ties. First, they force the municipalities to sectionalize their systems and operate them in isolation for each delivery point because no single delivery point is capabl e of handling the load of any other delivery point in the event of outages. Thus, a. municipality is prevented from providing effective internal service protection. Second, the proliferation of delivery points creates an excessive capital cost burden on wholesale service which is directly charged to-the municipalities. Third, as a municipality grows and delivery points pro-liferate,.the municipal system becomes completely surrounded by the Company's distribution facilities which are then used to serve new areas which would rmrrndly constitute the anticipated growth areas of the municipal system.
- d. Resale Limitations. Finally, the Company further restricts its wholesale customers by p ohibiting them fro reselling any energy beyond the_ Georgia Power Company service area.7 Thus a municipal system has very little, if any, opportunity to successfully achieve coordination with another energy source beyond the Georgia service area since it would be prohibited from selling. energy.

Dear Mr. Schur:
By various letters dated August 1971, Assistant Attorney General Richard W. McLaren requested the comments of certain Georgia Power Company customers regarding antitrust aspects of the operations of the Georgia Power Company in conjunction with his investigation of the Company's application to the Atomic Energy Commission for a nuclear fueled electric The Power Section of the Georgia Municipal power generating plant license.
Association has undertakego respond to that letter and to you directly on behalf of 48 municipalities- in the State of Georgia which currently operate their own electric power systems and purchase electric energy at wholesale from the Georgia Power Company. A copy of this letter is being forwarded to Mr. McLaren.

The Georgia Power Company remains today as the sole entity in bulk power supply industry in Georgia. It controls all facilities to generate and transmit electric energy in the State. As is demonstrated below, its monopoly position is maintained by the contractual details of its arrangements with SEPA and the municipal systems which purchase wholesale energy from the Company.
- 2. Competitive Irnplications of Georgia Power Company Activities Beyond the assumption of its- role as sole firm in the bulk power
~
supply market in Georgia, the Georgia Power Company has continually pur-sued an e policy to maintain its monopoly position. Through its critical role as relivery agent for SEPA power, the Company has imposed many anti-com, aitive restraints on publicly owned systems which are unrelated to its transmission function. These anti-competitive restraints have had the effect of not only preventing municipal systems from developing facilities to reduce their own energy costs or develop alternative sources of energy but also of makmg the consequences of an attempt to develop such alternatives so catastrophic as to preclude their consideration..
These anti-competitive restraints have been imposed upon the municipal systems by various contractual arrangements over a span of years. ,
They are presently contained in four contracts which are attached hereto as exhibits:
Erhthit 1: SEPA-Georgia Power.Contraet (June 19,.1970)
Exhibit 2: SEPA-Municipal Contract (June 20,1970)
Exhibit 3: "WR-4" Rate Schedule 3_/
3 "WR-6" Rate Schedule,/and other Exhibit 4: l excerpts from Tariff filed June 1, 1970, FPC Doc. No. E-7548 3_/
These are rate schedules under which the Company sells energy to publicly owned systems. The Company has proposed a rate increase pending now before the FPC (Doc. No. E-7548) which would supplant the WR-4 Schedule with higher rates contained in the WR-6 Schedule.
