DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Docket No. AC03-46-000, et al.]
First Energy, et al.; Electric Rate and Corporate Filings
July 9, 2003.
The following filings have been made with the Commission. The
filings are listed in ascending order within each docket
classification.
1. First Energy
[Docket No. AC03-46-000]
Take notice that on June 18, 2003, the Lake County, Ohio Auditor
and the Lake County, Ohio Board of Revision (Auditor and Board of
Revision) submitted a request for a ruling on the appropriate
accounting for the reactor building complex at First Energy's Perry
Plant. The Auditor and Board of Revision contend that the majority of
the costs of the reactor building complex should have been classified
to 18 CFR part 101, Account 321, Structures and Improvements, and not
to 18 CFR part 101, Account 322, Reactor Plant Equipment. The Auditor
and the Board of Revision explain that classification to the former
account would result in the costs being taxed as real property by Lake
County, while classification to the latter account would result in the
costs being taxed as personal property by the State of Ohio.
