Start Preamble February 27, 2003.

Take notice that on February 26, 2003, North Hartland LLC tendered for filing with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) a Request for Declaratory Order to Resolve a Controversy of Obligation to Pay Interconnection Cost. North Hartland LLC objects to the use charge. It argues that Central Vermont, the interconnecting utility, is not entitled to a 10% after tax rate of return on the project's investment in interconnection facilities, and the calculated use charge is fatally flawed.

Any person desiring to intervene or to protest this filing should file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 and 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 motion to intervene. All such motions or protests should be filed on or before the comment date, and, to the extent applicable, must be served on the applicant and on any other person designated on the official service list.
