FURTHER ORDERED by the Court, on its own motion, that the petitions are granted. It is

FURTHER ORDERED by the Court, on its own motion, that, for the reasons stated in the dissenting opinion of January 6, 1987, 808 F.2d 1525 the Commission's decision is reversed and this case is remanded for reconsideration of the decision to equalize the capacity costs of all nuclear plants, and for an explanation of the criteria used to determine what constitutes "undue discrimination" and of why the Commission's ultimate decision is not unduly discriminatory.
