Section 205 of the Federal Power Act a twenty-year power supply

contract (the Service Agreement) under which Delmarva will provide all

requirements service to the Town of Smyrna, Delmarva (Smyrna). Delmarva

No. 68 under which Smyrna currently receives service.

requirements service previously furnished Smyrna under Rate Schedule

Agreement provides for all requirements service as a change from the

partial requirements service Smyrna was receiving, establishes a new

rate for Smyrna which is below the level of the rate currently charged

Smyrna and below the settlement rate previously established for Smyrna

in Docket No. ER82-236-000, and provides for future adjustments to the

Smyrna rate based on changes in the level of Delmarva's retail rates.

The Service Agreement has a twenty year term.

firm power capacity purchased from Minnesota Power and Light. There are

also wheeling charges from Midwest Power and Northern States Power
