   [Docket No. EL04-84-000]

   Take notice that on February 23, 2004, South Mississippi Electric Power Association (SMEPA), (Complainant), filed a Complaint Concerning Improper Reactive Power Charges against Entergy Corp., Entergy Services, Inc., Entergy Mississippi, Inc., Entergy Arkansas, Inc., Entergy Gulf States, Inc., Entergy Louisiana, Inc., and Entergy New Orleans, Inc. (collectively Entergy) pursuant to Sections 201, 206, and 306 of the Federal Power Act and Rule 206 of the Commission's Rules (18 CFR 385.206).

   Complainant requests that the Commission find that Entergy's reactive power charges for the transmission of SMEPA's 75 MW purchase from the Big Cajun II Generating Plant violate the SMEPA-Entergy pre- Order No. 888 transmission contract because it prohibits imposition of additional charges absent SMEPA's consent, and, in addition, even if they were applicable, Entergy's Open Access Transmission Tariff and Order No. 888, because SMEPA is self-supplying reactive power to Entergy. Complainant further requests that the Commission determine that Entergy's reactive power charges to SMEPA are unduly discriminatory. Complainant requests that the Commission order Entergy to cease billing SMEPA for Schedule 2 charges for the transmission of SMEPA's 75 MW purchase from Big Cajun II and order Entergy to return, with interest, the Schedule 2 charges which SMEPA has paid under protest.
