Definitive 14A
 
Filed March 19, 2007
 
File No. 001-32206

Dear Ms. Quarles:

Great Plains Energy Incorporated (the "Company") received written comments of the staff (the "Staff") of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") contained in a letter dated August 21, 2007 (the "Comment Letter"), with respect to the definitive proxy statement filed on March 19, 2007 (File No. 001-32206) (the “Proxy”).

The Comment Letter requested the Company to respond to the comments by September 21, 2007, or to tell the Staff by that time when the Company would provide its response.  The Company requested a three-week extension of time, to October 12, 2007, to allow the Company to prepare its response and complete its disclosure review process.  This letter confirms our telephone conversation today that Staff grants this requested extension of time.

Please telephone the undersigned at (816) 556-2608 if you have any questions or need any additional information.  Thank you very much for your consideration.


Very truly yours,
