MWGen states that if the Commission accepts MWGen's Tariff without change and without setting it for hearing, then MWGen does not require the relief requested in this conditional complaint and therefore withdraws it. However, if the Commission sets MWGen's Tariff for hearing or does not accept it as proposed, then MWGen requests that the Commission conduct a hearing regarding ComEd's Reactive Power payments to Exelon Generation and require ComEd to compensate MWGen for Reactive Power to the same degree that it compensates its affiliate, Exelon Generation.

MWGen states that it has served a copy of this filing on ComEd, Exelon Generation and the Illinois Commerce Commission.
