California Municipal Utilities Association; Cities of Anaheim, 
Azusa, Banning, Colton, Pasadena, and Riverside, CA; City and County of 
San Francisco; Northern California Power Agency; Sacramento Municipal 
Utility District; Modesto Irrigation District; Transmission Agency of 
Northern California, Complainants, v. California Independent System 
Operator Corporation, Respondent; Notice of Complaint

March 5, 2009.
    Take notice that on March 4, 2009, the California Municipal 
Utilities Association, (CMUA) on behalf of itself and its members, the 
Cities of Anaheim, Azusa, Banning, Colton, Pasadena, and Riverside, 
California (the Six Cities); the City and County of San Francisco 
(CCSF); the Northern California Power Agency (NCPA); the Sacramento 
Municipal Utility District (SMUD); the Modesto Irrigation District 
(MID); and the Transmission Agency of Northern California (TANC), filed 
a formal complaint against the California Independent System Operator 
Corporation (CASIO), pursuant to sections 206, 306 and 309 of the 
Federal Power Act and Rule 206 of the Federal Energy Regulatory 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, alleging that the absence 
of Tariff provisions to protect Market Participants against charges 
incurred upon implementation of the Market Redesign and Technology 
Upgrade Tariff that are dramatically in excess of those levied during 
prior historic periods is unjust and unreasonable in violation of the 
Federal Power Act.
    Complainants certify that copies of the complaint were served on 
the contacts for the CASIO as listed on the Commission's list of 
Corporate Officials.
    Any person desiring to intervene or to protest this filing must 
file in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of 
Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211, 385.214). Protests will be 
considered by the Commission in determining the appropriate action to 
be taken, but will not serve to make protestants parties to the 
proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party must file a notice of 
intervention or motion to intervene, as appropriate. The Respondent's 
answer and all interventions, or protests must be filed on or before 
the comment date. The Respondent's answer, motions to intervene, and 
protests must be served on the Complainants.
    The Commission encourages electronic submission of protests and 
interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link at http://
www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should submit an 
original and 14 copies of the protest or intervention to the Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 
20426.
    This filing is accessible on-line at http://www.ferc.gov, using the 
``eLibrary'' link and is available for review in the Commission's
