once the PGA is eliminated; (3) to recover from its jurisdictional 
customers the Commission's Annual Charge Adjustment assessed pursuant 
to Part 382 of the regulations; (4) to revise its tariff to permit it 
to negotiate rates with its customers; and (5) to correct a 
typographical error on the Preliminary Statement in its tariff.

file a motion to intervene or protest with the Federal Energy

Rules and Regulations. All such motions or protests must be filed in
