    summary: On December 23, 1993, the Commission issued revised record 
    formats and edit-checks for the FERC Form No. 2. Most of the changes to 
    the record formats and edit checks were necessary to accommodate 
    certain new accounting requirements and new and revised pages for the 
    Form No. 2 that were established in Order No. 552, issued March 31, 
    1993. This version of the Form No. 2 software provides for the new 
    accounting and reporting requirements of Order No. 552; includes 
    ``cosmetic'' enhancements to improve the readability of the printed 
    output pages; and expands the validation of the electronically filed 
    Form No. 2 data through additional edit-checking equations.
        The Form No. 2 edit-checking and print software modules are 
    distributed as one package. Details on how to obtain the software are 
    explained in the ADDRESSES and SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION sections of 
    this Notice.
        An errata notice to correct several errors in the Form No. 2 list 
    of new and revised record formats and edit check equations released on 
    December 23, 1993, is provided in Appendix A.
