Floor Packet Page No. 25
      Amend CSSB 7, Section 40, Sec. 39.252, subsection (b) to read
as follows:
      (b)  Recovery of retail stranded costs by an electric utility
shall be from all existing or future retail customers, including
the facilities, premises, and loads of those retail customers,
within the utility's geographical certificated service area as it
existed on May 1, 1999. A retail customer may not avoid stranded
cost recovery charges by switching to new on-site generation except
as provided by Section 39.262(k). For purposes of this subchapter,
"new on-site generation" means electric generation capacity capable
of being lawfully delivered to the site without use of utility
distribution or transmission facilities and which was not, on or
before May 1, 1999, either:
            (1)  a fully operational facility, or
            (2)  a project supported by substantially complete
filings for all necessary site-specific environmental permits under
the rules of the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission in
effect at the time of filing.
      If a customer commences taking energy from new on-site
generation which materially reduces the customer's use of energy
delivered through the utility's facilities, the customer shall pay
an amount each month computed by multiplying the output of the new
sum of competition transition charges under Section 39.201 and
transition charges under subchapter G which are in effect during
that month. Payment shall be made to the utilitiy, its successors,
an assignee or other collection agent responsible for collecting
the competitive transition charges and transition charges and shall
be collected in addition to the competition transition charges and
transition charges applicable to energy actually delivered to the
customer through the utility's facilities.
