with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission an application for
determination of exempt wholesale generator status pursuant to Section
32(a)(1) of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935. The

developing, owning, and operating a gas-fired 810 MW (summer rated)
combined-cycle power plant in Southaven, Mississippi, which will be an
eligible facility.

95814, filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission an
application for determination of exempt wholesale generator status
pursuant to Part 365 of the Commission's regulations.
Applicant owns and operates a 25 MW (net) gas fired electrical
generating facility located near San Joaquin, California in Fresno
County. This facility is certified with the Commission as a
``qualifying facility'' pursuant to PURPA. Applicant will be engaged
directly and exclusively in the business of owning and operating
eligible facilities and selling electric energy at wholesale.
Comment date: December 29, 1999, in accordance with Standard
Paragraph E at the end of this notice. The Commission will limit its
consideration of comments to those that concern the adequacy or
accuracy of the application.
3. Black River Power, LLC
[Docket No. EG00-33-000]
Take notice that on December 1, 1999, Black River Power, LLC
(Applicant) filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission an
Application for Determination of Exempt Wholesale Generator Status
pursuant to Part 365 of the Commission's Regulations and Section 32 of
the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended.
Applicant, a New York limited liability company, is a wholly-owned
special purpose subsidiary of Jones Capital Corporation, a Delaware
corporation. Following the purchase by an unrelated third party of the
Fort Drum Cogeneration Project (the Facility) from its current owner,
Black River Limited Partnership (BRLP), Applicant will lease the
Facility from the third party purchaser and will be the sole operator
of the Facility. Applicant will also sell at wholesale the electric
energy that the Facility generates. BRLP will transfer to Applicant all
operating rights, permits, easements and a ground lease.
The Facility, a topping-cycle cogeneration project located at the
Fort Drum Army Base near Watertown, New York, is currently a
Commission-certified qualifying facility (QF). The Facility currently
consists of three multi-fuel (coal, petroleum coke and wood chips)
fired circulating fluidized bed boilers, an extraction/condensing steam
turbine generator with a net electrical capacity of approximately 50 MW
and associated transmission components interconnecting the Facility
with the grid. When operation without QF status begins, the Facility
will also include three diesel engine generators that are located at
the Facility site and have been used for back-up power, but had not
previously been part of the QF. Each of the three distillate oil-fired
engine generators has a net electrical capacity of one megawatt.
Additionally, Applicant may install an additional steam turbine that
would utilize for power generation the steam that has previously been
extracted for useful thermal energy output. If this turbine is
installed, the Facility's total net electric capacity would be 60 MW,
including three MW of net capacity from the diesel units. Due to
termination of the thermal energy contract by the U.S. Army, the
Facility will cease to be a QF after December 31, 1999. Applicant
requests that the Commission issue its determination of EWG status to
the Applicant as expeditiously as possible so that Applicant is able to
engage in permitted transactions as an EWG on Jan. 1, 2000.
Copies of the application have been served upon the New York Public
Service Commission, and the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Comment date: December 29, 1999, in accordance with Standard
Paragraph E at the end of this notice. The Commission will limit its
consideration of comments to those that concern the adequacy or
accuracy of the application.
