6. Rayburn Country Electric

Cooperative, Inc.

[Docket No. ER98–2717–000]

Take notice that Rayburn Country

Electric Cooperative, Inc. (Rayburn

Electric), on April 28, 1998, tendered a

rate change filing pursuant to Section

205 of the Federal Power Act and

Section 35.13 of the regulations of the

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

(FERC, or Commission). Rayburn

Electric proposes to implement changes

to its tariff which are revenue-neutral to

its system wide rates approved by the

Commission in 1995, and by the Public

Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) in

1994. Rayburn Electric indicates that its

FERC-jurisdictional rate resulting from

the proposed rate change will not

increase. Rayburn states that all

wholesale customers that belong to the

affected rate class consent to the

proposed rate change. Rayburn Electric

requests an effective date of June 1,

1998, or such other date as may be

approved by the PUCT regarding

Rayburn Electric’s companion rate filing

submitted to the PUCT, and requests

any waivers or other authority deemed

necessary by the FERC to permit its rate

change to become effective as proposed.

Rayburn Electric proposes changes to

its rates currently charged to its member

cooperatives, as presently reflected in

Rayburn Electric’s Rate Schedule WP–2

on file with the FERC. The changes are

proposed primarily due to new power

supply arrangements that Rayburn

Electric has entered into on behalf of its

member cooperatives, which will result

in substantial savings in purchased

power costs. Although Rayburn Electric

indicates that the new power supply

arrangements affect only the portion of

Rayburn Electric’s load in the Electric

Reliability Council of Texas, the savings

under the new arrangements, according

to Rayburn Electric, will benefit all of

Rayburn Electric’s load through the

blended, system wide rates.

Rayburn Electric has served copies of

this filing on each of the parties to the

Agreement, its member/customers and

the PUCT.

Comment date: May 18, 1998, in

accordance with Standard Paragraph E

at the end of this notice.
