NOTE: Order 141, 12 F.R. 8503, Dec. 19, 1947, provides in part as follows:

Prescribing a system of accounts for public utilities and licensees under the Federal Power Act. The Federal Power Commission acting pursuant to authority granted by the Federal Power Act, particularly sections 301 (a), 304(a), and 309, and paragraph (13) of section 3, section 4(b) thereof, and finding such action necessary and appropriate for carrying out the provisions of said act, hereby adopts the accompanying system of accounts entitled "Uniform System of Accounts Prescribed for Public Utilities and Licensees Subject to the Provisions of the Federal Power Act," and the rules and regulations contained therein; and It is hereby ordered:

(a) That said system of accounts and said rules and regulations contained therein be and the same are hereby prescribed and promulgated as the system of accounts and rules and regulations of the Commission to be kept and observed by public utilities subject to the jurisdiction of the Commission and by licensees holding licenses issued by the Commission, to the extent and in the manner set forth therein;

(b) That said system of accounts and rules and regulations therein contained shall, as to all public utilities now subject to the jurisdiction of the Commission and as to all present licensees, become effective on January 1, 1937, and as to public utilities and licensees which may hereafter become subject to the jurisdiction of the Commission, they shall become effective as of the date when such public utility becomes subject to the jurisdiction of the Commission or on the effective date of the license;

(c) That a copy of said system of accounts and rules and regulation contained therein be forthwith served upon each public utility

subject to the jurisdiction of the Commission, and each licensee or permittee holding a license or permit from the Commission.

This system of accounts supersedes the system of accounts prescribed for licensees under the Federal Water Power Act; and Order No. 13, entered November 20, 1922, prescribing said system of accounts, was rescinded effective January 1, 1937.

Applicability of system of accounts. This system of accounts is applicable in principle to all licensees subject to the Commission's accounting requirements under the Federal Power Act, and to all public utilities subject to the provisions of the Federal Power Act. The Commission reserves the right, however, under the provisions of section 301(a) of the Federal Power Act, to classify such licensees and public utilities and to prescribe a system or classification of accounts to be kept by and which will be convenient for and meet the requirements of each class.

This system of accounts is applicable to public utilities, as defined in this part, and to licensees engaged in the generation and sale of electric energy for ultimate distribution to the public. In § 102.01-1 of this chapter, there are shown the modifications and additions which are necessary to meet the conditions peculiar to Class A and Class B State and municipal licensees. In § 104.1 of this chapter, there is shown the condensed list of accounts to be kept by Class C and Class D public utilities and licensees, including State and municipal licensees.

This system of accounts shall also apply to agencies of the United States engaged in the generation and sale of electric energy for ultimate distribution to the public, so far as may be practicable, in accordance with applicable statutes.

In accordance with the requirements of section 3 of the act (49 Stat. 839; 16 U.S.C. 796(13)), the "classification of investment in road and equipment of steam roads, issue of 1914, Interstate Commerce Commission", is published and promulgated as a part of the accounting rules and regulations of the Commission, and a copy thereof appears as § 103.01-1 of this chapter. Irrespective of any rules and regulations contained in this system of accounts, the cost of original projects licensed under the act, and also the cost of additions thereto and betterments thereof, shall be determined under the rules and principles as defined and interpreted in said classification of the Interstate Commerce Commission so far as applicable.

CROSS REFERENCES: For application of uniform system of accounts to Class C and D public utilities and licensees, see Parts 104 and 105 of this chapter. For statements and reports, see Part 141 of this chapter. For classification of utilities, see § 101.03-1.

From the system of accounts effective Jan. 1, 1937, to the system of accounts effective Jan. 1, 1961
