    Take notice that on February 6, 1995, Wisconsin Electric Power 
Company (Wisconsin Electric or the Company), tendered for filing 
revisions to its coordination rate schedules between itself and a 
number of present and prospective wholesale energy purchasers. The 
revisions would allow Wisconsin Electric to recoup the cost of sulphur 
dioxide emission allowances associated with the production of energy 
under these agreements and rate schedules. Under the federal Clean Air 
Act (42 U.S.C. Section 7401 et seq.), Wisconsin Electric would assume 
liability for the costs of procurement of these emission allowances. 
The rate revisions would allow reimbursement, in cash or in kind, up to 
100% of the replacement cost in all service schedules using incremental 
costs. Energy purchasers would be allowed to defer reimbursement of 
emission allowances until such time as the Company must surrender 
emission allowances to the federal Environmental Protection Agency.
    The filing designates the Cantor Fitzgerald Environmental Brokerage 
Service as the Company's monthly market index to be used in instances 
where the energy purchaser decides to reimburse Wisconsin Electric in 
cash. The submittal also explains Wisconsin Electric's least cost plan 
that incorporates the Clean Air Act's reduced utilization provisions 
for Phase 1 affected units may cause the Company's cost recovery to be 
less than total replacement cost.
    Wisconsin Electric respectfully requests an effective date of April 
1, 1995.
    Copies of the filing have been served on all affected wholesale 
purchasers, the Michigan Public Service Commission, and the Public 
Service Commission of Wisconsin.
