§ 4928.31.

(A) Not later than ninety days after the effective date of this section, an electric

utility supplying retail electric service in this state on that date shall file with

the public utilities commission a plan for the utility's provision of retail electric

service in this state during the market development period.  This transition plan shall be in such form as the commission shall prescribe by

rule adopted under division (A) of section 4928.06 of the Revised Code and shall include all of the following: (1) A rate unbundling plan that specifies, consistent with divisions (A)(1) to (7) of

section 4928.34 of the Revised Code and any rules adopted by the commission under division (A) of section 4928.06 of the Revised Code , the unbundles 1 components for electric generation, transmission, and distribution service and such

other unbundled service components as the commission requires, to be charged by the

utility beginning on the starting date of competitive retail electric service and

that includes information the commission requires to fix and determine those components; (2) A corporate separation plan consistent with section 4928.17 of the Revised Code and any rules adopted by the commission under division (A) of section 4928.06 of the Revised Code ; (3) Such plan or plans as the commission requires to address operational support systems

and any other technical implementation issues pertaining to competitive retail electric

retention, outplacement, and other assistance for the utility's employees whose employment

is affected by electric industry restructuring under this chapter; (5) A consumer education plan consistent with former section 4928.42 of the Revised Code

and any rules adopted by the commission under division (A) of section 4928.06 of the Revised Code . A transition plan under this section may include tariff terms and conditions to address

reasonable requirements for changing suppliers, length of commitment by a customer

for service, and such other matters as are necessary to accommodate electric restructuring.  Additionally, a transition plan under this section may include an application for

the opportunity to receive transition revenues as authorized under sections 4928.31 to 4928.40 of the Revised Code , which application shall be consistent with those sections and any rules adopted

by the commission under division (A) of section 4928.06 of the Revised Code .  The transition plan also may include a plan for the independent operation of the

utility's transmission facilities consistent with section 4928.12 of the Revised Code , division (A)(13) of section 4928.34 of the Revised Code , and any rules adopted by the commission under division (A) of section 4928.06 of the Revised Code . The commission may reject and require refiling, in whole or in part, of any substantially

inadequate transition plan. (B) The electric utility shall provide public notice of its filing under division (A)

of this section, in a form and manner that the commission shall prescribe by rule

adopted under division (A) of section 4928.06 of the Revised Code .  However, the adoption of rules regarding the public notice under this division,

regarding the form of the transition plan under division (A) of this section, and

regarding procedures for expedited discovery under division (A) of section 4928.32 of the Revised Code are not subject to division (D) of section 111.15 of the Revised Code . 1

 So in original.  Should this read “unbundled”?
