E7-21159. Southeastern Power Administration; Notice of Filing

October 19, 2007.

Take notice that on October 15, 2007, Southeastern Power Administration (Southeastern) filed an appeal of the September 25, 2007 decision of the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) to include Southeastern Power Administration on the NERC compliance registry within the SERC Reliability Corporation for the function of transmission operator and resource planner. Southeastern states that it has the responsibility to market the electric power generated at reservoir projects owned and operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in the southeast and neither owns or operates a generation or transmission system. Southeastern asks the Commission to reverse the NERC's decision to register Southeastern as a transmission operator and resource planner.

Any person desiring to intervene or to protest this filing must file in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211, 385.214). Protests will be considered by the Commission in determining the appropriate action to be taken, but will not serve to make protestants parties to the proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party must file a notice of intervention or motion to intervene, as appropriate. Such notices, motions, or protests must be filed on or before the comment date. On or before the comment date, it is not necessary to serve motions to intervene or protests on persons other than the Applicant.
