35210 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 130 / Friday, July 5, 1996 / Notices

marketed as an isolated project under a

contract through which the customer,

Sam Rayburn Municipal Power Agency

(SRMPA), receives the entire output of

the project for a period of 50 years as a

result of funding the construction of the

hydroelectric facilities at the project. A

separate power repayment study is

prepared for each project which has a

special rate based on its isolated project

determination.

Following Department of Energy

Order Number RA 6120.2, the

Administrator, Southwestern, prepared

a current power repayment study for the

Robert D. Willis project using the

existing annual rate of $294,312. The

study indicated that maintaining the

current rate will create a revenue

surplus for the project. This is primarily

a result of adding the remote operation

of the Whitney Project, beginning in FY

1997, by the Corps of Engineers from the

Sam Rayburn Project. The Revised

Power Repayment Study for the isolated

Willis project shows that a decrease of

$27,384 (a 9.3 percent decrease)

annually will satisfy repayment criteria.

This decrease would change annual

revenues produced by the Willis Project

from $294,312 to $266,928 and satisfy

the present financial criteria for

repayment of the project.

Opportunity is presented for

customers and interested parties to

receive copies of the studies and

proposed rate schedule for the Willis

project. If you desire a copy of the

Repayment Study Data Package for the

Willis project, please do not hesitate to

submit your request to: Mr. George C.

Grisaffe, Assistant Administrator, Office

of Administration and Rates, P.O. Box

1619, Tulsa, OK 74101, (918) 595–6628.

project, in support of the proposed rates,

Statute (5 U.S.C. 7111(f)(1) and 5 U.S.C.

7120); and (2) the criteria to be used by
