The Eastern Division Firm Power Rate Schedule would be increased

so as to yield an average return of approximately 4.78 mills per

kilowatt-hour which would be an average increase of approximstely

0.4 mill per kilowatt-hour over the average return of 4.38 mills
per kilowatt-hour that would be received from the sale of firm and

additional firm power under the existing MRB-F5 rate schedule with

expected load characteristics. This would be an increase in average

revenue from these classes of service of approximately 9 percent.

The Eastern Division Firm Peaking Power Rate Schedule would be

increased so as to yield a 10-percent increase in revenue.

Certain existing rate schedules for special purposes that are

meant to be equal to the Firm Power Rate Schedule would be

changed to agree with a new Firm Power Rate Schedule.

Structural changes proposed in the rate schedules are as follows:

1. Fi rm Powe r

a. Increase the monthly capacity charge from $1.00

per kilowatt to $l.l3 per kilowatt.

b. Change the monthly energy charge from the single
step energy charge of 3.0 mills per kilowatt-hour to

a two-step charge of 3.00 mills per kilowatt-hour for

the first 438 kilowatt-hours per kilowatt of monthly

demand and 5.00 mills per kilowatt-hour for all

additional energy.
