	Amend CSSB 408 by adding the following appropriately numbered 
SECTIONS and renumbering subsequent SECTIONS accordingly:
	SECTION ____.  Subchapter E, Chapter 39, Utilities Code, is 
amended by adding Section 39.2025 to read as follows:
	Sec. 39.2025.  FUEL FACTOR ADJUSTMENTS.  (a)  An affiliated 
retail electric provider may request the commission to increase the 
provider's fuel factor originally established under Section 
39.202(b) not more than twice a year.  To obtain an increase under 
this subsection, the provider must demonstrate that the fuel factor 
does not adequately reflect significant changes in purchased energy 
costs incurred in serving the customers to whom the provider is 
required to offer the price to beat under Section 39.202.
	(b)  The commission may decrease a fuel factor originally 
established under Section 39.202(b) on the request of an affiliated 
retail electric provider, a regulatory authority, an affected 
customer, or the office of public utility counsel.
	(c)  An affiliated retail electric provider may recover only 
eligible fuel expenses through the fuel factor originally 
established under Section 39.202(b).  This section does not 
authorize an affiliated retail electric provider to recover through 
that fuel factor generation costs that are otherwise recoverable 
through the provider's base rates.
	SECTION ____.  Section 39.202(l), Utilities Code, is 
repealed.
