In view of the desire to effect changes and reforms in the social, economic and political structure of our society, and with the promulgation of Presidential Decree No. 40 dated November 7, 1972, as a means of converting small private/municipal systems to electric cooperatives in accordance with Republic Act No. 6038, the National Electrification Administration (NEA) is hereby directed to immediately implement and enforce strictly the provisions of the Presidential Decree No. 40.
The NEA is hereby directed to establish procedures, systems and organizations with defined functions for the prompt implementation of said decree.

2) Systems which are delinquent in their amortization payments to NEA and other banking institutions and/or payment to NPC of their power bills.
3) Systems connected to NPC or Meralco and therefore do not have generating plants.
