Notice

Notice is hereby given, pursuant to article IV, section 21(D)(1) of the Louisiana Constitution, that on May 15, 2007, Entergy Louisiana, LLC ("ELL") an electric public utility providing retail electric service to customers in forty-three (43) Parishes of the State of Louisiana, filed with the Louisiana Public Service Commission ("LPSC") its Formula Rate Plan ("FRP") Rider FRP for the test year ending December 31, 2006 pursuant to the FRP adopted by the Commission in Consolidated Order No. U-29205 RRF 2004.
The filing indicates that the Company requires an annual FRP rider revenue decrease of approximately $6.9 million dollars after reflecting certain adjustments, including several that are due to the extraordinary effects of Hurricane Katrina. The primary adjustments that are reflected in this case include: (1) an increase of approximately $39.8 million annually for unrecovered fixed cost associated with the loss of customers in St. Bernard, Plaquemines, and lower Jefferson parishes; (2) a decrease of approximately $18.7 million annually in the collection of a storm reserve in anticipation of the Commission entering an order in Docket No. U-29203 that approves the current stipulation among ELL, the Commission Staff, and most of the intervenors establishing a securitized storm reserve; (3) a decrease of approximately $4.0 million annually pursuant to FRP Section 3.D to reflect a reduction in additional capacity costs; and (4) a decrease of approximately $24.2 million annually which reflects the termination of interim storm cost recovery in connection with final Commission resolution of Docket No. U-29203. Interim storm recovery will be replaced by permanent storm costs recovery.
Based upon the May billed fuel adjustment, this prospective rate decrease would have the following effects: A typical bill for Residential Service for 1,000 kWh would decrease $0.37 from $102.66 to $102.29. A bill for Small General Service for 50 kW and 12,500 kWh would decrease $5.32 from $1,383.03 to $1,377.71. A bill for Large General Service for 500 kW and 225,000 kWh would decrease $58.49 from $19,329.57 to $19,271.08. Pursuant to FRP section 2.B. these rates or such corrected Rate Adjustments as determined under the FRP may become effective on or after the first billing cycle of September. At this time, ELL expects this annual FRP rate decrease to become effective coincident with the effective date of whatever rate increase is ordered by the Commission in Docket No. U-29203. ELL anticipates that the latter will exceed the former, such that the net effect on customers will likely be a rate increase.
The Company's filing and proposed changes to its rates and charges may be viewed in the Office of the Louisiana Public Service Commission in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
Entergy Louisiana, LLC.
