assessments within the 12-month period ending with the current month; 
and
    (3) Deduct from Account 518 one-twelfth of any refunds of payments 
made for special assessments received within the 12-month period ending 
with the current month that is received from the Federal government 
because the public utility has contested a special assessment or 
overpaid a special assessment.
    (b) Cost of service data requirements. Public utilities filing rate 
applications under Sec. Sec. 35.12 or 35.13 (regardless of whether the

or Period II cost support requirements) must submit cost data that is 
computed in accordance with the requirements specified in paragraphs (a) 
(1), (2) and (3) of this section.
    (c) Formula rates. Public utilities with formula rates on file that 
provide for the automatic recovery of nuclear fuel costs must reflect 
the costs of special assessments in accordance with the requirements 
specified in paragraphs (a) (1), (2) and (3) of this section.
