submitted 21 years ago by Pub. L. 109-58 to r/title-42-THE-PUBLIC-HEALTH-AND-WELFARE · 185 words · no verdicts yet

in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

If an activity was legal or authorized on August 8, 2005, a person may keep doing it under the old terms. This part does not limit the Commission's power under other energy laws. Repealing the old 1935 Act does not change existing tax treatment for past transactions.

(a) In general: Nothing in this part, in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, or in any rule, regulation, or order under it, stops a person from doing (or continuing) an activity or transaction that was legal or authorized as of August 8, 2005. This protection only lasts if the person keeps following the terms of that authorization, other than any expiration or termination date. (b) Effect on other Commission authority: This part does not limit the Commission's authority under the Federal Power Act or the Natural Gas Act. (c) Tax treatment: Certain tax treatment, under section 1081 of title 26, for transactions ordered under the old Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 stays the same. Repealing that Act and enacting the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005 does not change that tax treatment in any way.

(a) In general

Nothing in this part, or otherwise in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, or rules, regulations, or orders thereunder, prohibits a person from engaging in or continuing to engage in activities or transactions in which it is legally engaged or authorized to engage on August 8, 2005, if that person continues to comply with the terms (other than an expiration date or termination date) of any such authorization, whether by rule or by order.

(b) Effect on other Commission authority

Nothing in this part limits the authority of the Commission under the Federal Power Act (16 U.S.C. 791a et seq.) or the Natural Gas Act (15 U.S.C. 717 et seq.).

(c) Tax treatment

Tax treatment under section 1081 1 of title 26 as a result of transactions ordered in compliance with the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 (15 U.S.C. 79 et seq.) shall not be affected in any manner due to the repeal of that Act and the enactment of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005 [42 U.S.C. 16451 et seq.].
