The undersigned, the manager of McLeod Cooperative Power Association,
by virtue of amendment to a contract dated February 13, 19W, executed by
and between the Light and Power Commission of the City of Hutchinson, Minn-
esota, a municipal corporation, hereinafter called the producer, and McLeod
Cooperative Power Association, hereinafter called the consumer, which amend-
ment to said contract is executed by the producer and consumer on Janu-
ary 19, 1946, the consumer does hereby requ: >st the producer to release cer-
tain areas wherein the producer now furnishes electric energy for consumption
by the consumer+ The areas requested to be released may be termed a por-
tion of the eastern area heretofor released, together with an addition to
area A, heretofor released.
That the area hereunder considered is described in Exhibit A attached
hereto.
It is the desire of the consumer that release of the area here described
become effective as soon as consumer is able to integrate said area with
another source of power. That said request is made for the reason that
the consumers transmission system leading from the producer's to the area
in question is so seriously overloaded that continuous service cannot be
made in the area here described.
That the area here concerned contains approximately.1912 members
served with energy now furnished by the producer.
IN WITNESS WH-3230F, the undersigned, R. A. Fischer, has hereunto set
his hand in behalf of said McLeod Cooperative Power Association this
day of December, 1947.
