Thus the <br />fillinG criteria would continue until terminated at some <br />later date. We anticipate there would be no chanGe in the <br />manner of determining deficiencies in Hoover Generation <br />durinG the remainder of the fillinG period, but the matter <br />of payments for such deficiencies would be Governed bv <br />section 502 of the bill."
