Take notice that the following filings have been made with the Commission:

1. Commonwealth Edison Company

Take notice that on December 21, 2000, Exelon Corporation (Exelon), on behalf of its subsidiaries, Commonwealth Edison Company (ComEd) and Exelon Generation, L.L.C. (Exelon Generation), tendered for filing an amendment to its December 8, 2000, filing of a form of agreement entitled Ancillary and Other Control Area Services Resource Purchase Agreement (hereafter the Agreement). Due to an administrative oversight, the Agreement references various Schedules which were inadvertently omitted in Exelon's December 8, 2000 filing. Per an informal request of FERC Staff, ComEd is accordingly submitting with this transmittal letter the Agreement, along with the previously omitted Schedules referenced in said Agreement.

FERC Staff has advised ComEd that making this amended filing should not affect the effective date of January 1, 2001 requested by ComEd in its December 8, 2000 filing in this docket.

Per an informal request of FERC Staff, ComEd is amending its filing to include Schedule 1 of the Agreement as Attachment A to Schedule 4, instead of merely referencing it in Schedule 4 to ComEd's OATT.
