Public Service Company of Oklahoma, (Docket No. EL06-95-000); 
Lawton Cogeneration, L.L.C., (Docket No. QF02-16-004); Notice of Filing

August 4, 2006.
    Take notice on August 1, 2006, pursuant to Rule 215(a)(3)(i), 
Public Service Company of Oklahoma (PSO) filed an amended motion for 
revocation of the qualifying facility (QF) status of the cogeneration 
facility proposed by Lawton Cogeneration, L.L.C. (Lawton) which was 
obtained by self recertification and a petition for declaratory order 
asking the Commission to find: Any further amendments to the QF would 
render the Lawton Facility a new cogeneration facility pursuant to CFR 
292.205(d); if the Lawton Facility does not meet the standards pursuant 
to Sec.  292.205(a) when it commences operations, PSO will not have to 
purchase power from the Lawton Facility and cannot be compelled to 
enter into a contract that requires otherwise; if the Oklahoma 
Corporation Commission (OCC) compels PSO to pay Lawton an avoided 
energy cost based on heat rate of a peaking plant it would be in 
contravention of the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978; 
and that the OCC has no authority to compel PSO to name Lawton as a 
designated Network Resource of PSO, as such as is preempted by the 
Federal Power Act, an in any event Order 888 does not compel utilities 
to purchase transmission service for any third party.
    Any person desiring to intervene or to protest this filing must 
file in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of 
Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211, 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 notice of 
intervention or motion to intervene, as appropriate. Such notices, 
motions, or protests must be filed on or before the comment date. 
Anyone filing a motion to intervene or protest must serve a copy of

interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link at http://www.ferc.gov.
