Prescribes loan repayment guidelines.
Amends the Federal Power Act to direct the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to prohibit any public utility or State regulatory authority from imposing any fee or charge on any electric consumer, State, or municipality for the purpose of recovering wholesale stranded costs it may incur when retail electric consumers cease to be served by that public utility by reason of the provision of electric service by a State or local government.
