Transmission Tariff (OATT), FERC Electric Tariff, volume No. 7. Also 
submitted are three short term firm transmission service agreements 
with Wisconsin Public Service Corporation (WPSC), Madison Gas and 
Electric Company (Mad Gas), and Delhi Energy Services, Inc. (Delhi). 
Wisconsin Electric requests an effective date coincident with its 
filing, in order that the changes contained therein are implemented as 
soon as possible.
    The first change, to the Short Term Firm Form of Service Agreement, 
is intended to clarify the scheduling of firm and non-firm transmission 
service requests on the OASIS so that unconfirmed requests for firm 
point-to-point transmission service are deemed withdrawn if not 
confirmed within a defined period of time after their acceptance on the 
OASIS by the Transmission Provider.
    The second change would allow the Transmission Provider to 
calculate the Load Ratio Share of its network transmission service 
customers on an annual basis, rather than by a rolling twelve month 
calculation of this ratio.
    According to Wisconsin Electric, neither change has an impact on 
transmission compensation.
    Copies of the filing have been served on all Wisconsin Electric 
transmission service customers, the Michigan Public Service Commission,
