Public notice will be given through news media before such operational procedures are implemented. D.As used in this rule: (1)"Major Use Customer" is a customer who used 75,000 Kwh in anymonthly billing cycle in the Base Period, or who would use 75,000 Kwh (without curtailment) in any monthly billing cycle in the 12-month period beginning the previous August 1. (2)"Base Period" is the corresponding monthly billing cycle in a 12-month period ending the previous July 31. E.The Base Period loads of Major Use Customers will be adjusted to take intoaccount installed increase in normal load. Customers becoming Major Use Customers in the period after August 1 of the curtailment year by reason of increased usage shall have a Base Period load determined by the Company on the basis of the projected usage before curtailment. F.The Base Period loads of customers other than Major Use Customers may be modified where additional load requirements have occurred and where suchadditional load cannot be avoided during the curtailment period. A customer desiring such modification shall notify the Company with description of reasons therefor. G.Prior to implementing Step (7), the Company will establish the Base Period load for Major Use Customers in consultation with such customers, where required. H.In the event a customer and the Company cannot agree on the Base Period load, the matter may be submitted by the customer to the Commission, and, pending final decision by the Commission, the Base Period load shall be thatdetermined by the Company. I.The percentage specified for mandatory curtailment under Step (7) may beincreased or decreased as system conditions require, or as established by governmental authority.

BUY-BACK OF CUSTOMER POWER:Where customer premises is supplied through one meter installation for a demand of not less than 3,000 Kva, the Customer may voluntarily curtail power usage with Company agreement and receive a billing credit with the specific credit amount and period of load curtailment specified by written agreement. The highest credit amount received by any customer will be provided to all other customers taking service on that day under this rule. The minimum curtailment period is one day (midnight to midnight) and the minimum amount of curtailment is one megawatt hour. The curtailed amount will be calculated by comparing the difference between energy consumed each day during the load curtailment period and energy consumed on the 14 work week days immediately preceding the load curtailment period. Other methods of verification may be utilitized with mutual written agreement between the customer and the Company.
