Maine Yankee Atomic Power Company (70-8313)
Maine Yankee Atomic Power Company (``Maine Yankee''), 329 Bath
Road, Brunswick, Maine 04011, an indirect nuclear generating subsidiary
of Northeast Utilities (``NU'') and of New England Electric System
(``NEES''), both registered holding companies, has filed a declaration
under Sections 6(a) and 7 of the Act.
By orders dated January 17, 1991 and January 12, 1994 (HCAR Nos.
25244 and 25973, respectively) Maine Yankee was authorized to issue and
sell, no later than December 31, 1996, short-term notes (``Notes'')
under bank lines of credit, and/or commercial paper (``Commercial
Paper'') up to an aggregate amount at any one time outstanding of $21
million. As of September 30, 1996, Maine Yankee had no issued and
outstanding amounts under these lines of credit nor did it have any
Commercial Paper obligations.
Maine Yankee now proposes to extend its authority to issue and sell
Notes and Commercial Paper in an aggregate outstanding amount of $21
million, through December 31, 2001.
Maine Yankee has existing bank lines of credit permitting the
issuance of notes aggregating $21 million, including $8 million with
The Bank of New York and $13 million with The First National Bank of
Boston. The Notes will be demand or other short-term obligations under
bank lines of credit. The Notes will mature in twelve months or less
from the date of issuance. The effective interest cost of the Notes
will not exceed the effective interest cost of borrowings at the prime
rate, as in effect from time-to-time at such banks. Commitment fees
will not exceed \1/2\ of 1% of the lines of credit from such banks.
The Commercial Paper will mature in twelve months or less from the
date of issuance and will be issued through dealers in commercial paper
and sold to institutional investors. The Commercial Paper may be backed
by Maine Yankee's available lines of credit or revolving credit
agreements. Maine Yankee will pay a fee to the dealers in the
Commercial Paper, estimated to be \1/8\ of 1% per annum, on a discount
basis, of the amounts borrowed, as compensation for their services with
regard to the issuance of the Commercial Paper. The interest rate on
the Commercial Paper will vary depending upon the interest rates
prevailing in the relevant market at the time of issuance.
The Notes and Commercial Paper will provide interim financing for
Maine Yankee's construction program, for working capital and for other
general corporate purposes.
PSI Energy, Inc. (70-8727)
PSI Energy, Inc. (``PSI''), 1000 Main Street, Plainfield, Indiana
46168, an electric utility subsidiary of Cinergy Corp., a registered
holding company (``Cinergy''), has filed a post-effective amendment to
its application under sections 9(a) and 10 of the Act and rule 54
thereunder.
By order dated November 21, 1995 (HCAR No. 26412) (``1995 Order''),
the Commission authorized PSI to enter into a business venture with
H.H. Gregg (``Gregg''), a retail vendor of household electronic
appliances and related consumer goods, through December 31, 1996,
involving an appliance sales program (``Pilot Program''). Pursuant to
the 1995 Order, PSI was authorized to market Gregg's electronic goods
and appliances at retail, on a best-efforts, consignment basis, to
PSI's customers at a limited number of its local offices. PSI was also
authorized to sell extended service warranties covering any items
purchased. Further, the Pilot Program contemplated that PSI might
arrange customer financing through a bank or other financial
institution for a fee.
Pursuant to the 1995 Order, PSI has been conducting the Pilot
Program through four of its local offices, in Bedford, Connersville,
Greencastle, and Huntington, Indiana. PSI has also been marketing to
customers Gregg's extended service warranties. In addition, as
contemplated, PSI has arranged (i.e., brokered) customer financing with
third-party financial institutions in exchange for a fee from the
third-party financier.
The initial proposal estimated that the Pilot Program would:
(1) result in total sales revenues of approximately $2.6 million;
(2) utilize the full-time employee equivalent of three or four
employees; and (3) involve approximately $320,000 of expenditures
(consisting primarily of advertising and sales expenses, expenses
associated with the use of local offices and related facilities, and
expenses associated with employees' time).
The interim financial results of the Pilot Program have not met
PSI's expectations, with revenues less than and expenses more than
original estimates. PSI states that a principal reason why revenues to
date have not matched expectations is because of local competition with
other appliances and home electronics dealers. PSI states that
advertising expenses were higher than anticipated partly due to the
rush to open stores in time for the 1995 Christmas shopping season, but
states that, since April of this year, the advertising strategy has
been modified, and monthly advertising expenses have fallen back into
line with original estimates. In addition, PSI entered into a
settlement agreement with the Indiana Office of Utility Consumer
Counselor providing, among other things, that 20% of the gross margins
from all sales revenues to which PSI is entitled as a result of its
participation in the Pilot Program will be allocated to PSI's retail
electric customers through PSI's quarterly fuel adjustment clause.
[[Page 63877]]
Finally, initial non-recurring start-up costs also exceeded estimates.
PSI now requests authorization to continue the Pilot Program with
certain minor modifications for an additional year in order to advance
the program goals for which authorization for the Pilot Program was
originally sought. Specifically, PSI states that it continues to
believe that the energy industry is transforming into a competitive
industry, and that marketing appliances and electronic goods (whether
in collaboration with Gregg or some other third-party vendor or by PSI
on its own) to PSI's retail customers, on the limited basis currently
in effect, will provide incremental benefits to PSI in this emerging
environment by among other things (1) promoting a company brand-name
identity, thereby facilitating the eventual marketing to customers by
PSI or its associate companies of other energy-related and demand-side
management products; (2) more fully utilizing existing employees and
offices to hold down costs; and (3) strengthening ties to customers.
PSI states that although interim costs of the Pilot Program have
exceeded estimates, many of these costs are non-recurring start-up
costs (e.g., local office redesign, employee training, acquisition of
point-of-sale software). Therefore, the investments PSI has made and
the hands-on experience it has gained will benefit it significantly in
the extended Pilot Program. To further contain 1997 program costs,
Gregg has proposed certain program modifications, including increased
price discounts, advertising support, and increased Gregg staff support
and training for store personnel, that will increase the potential
profitability of the program.
The renewed Pilot Program would be subject to the same terms and
conditions contained in the 1995 Order except that: PSI may continue to
conduct the program in collaboration with Gregg; alternatively, PSI may
conduct the program on its own or in collaboration with other
appliances or home electronics vendors.\1\ In any event, PSI, whether
on its own or together with third-party vendors, would market household
appliances and other consumer electronic goods (including marketing
extended service warranties and arranging for customer financing from
third-party financial institutions) from not more than five of PSI's
local offices.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ PSI will not acquire any ownership interest in Gregg or such
other third-party vendors; nor would PSI establish any new
subsidiaries to implement the extended program.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Furthermore, PSI requests authorization to market extended service
warranties to its customers, covering the cost of repairs for their
household appliances/electronic goods, whether or not purchased from
PSI as part of the extended program. Based on its experience to date,
PSI may wish to use the full-time equivalent of up to five employees
(out of the approximately 2230) to carry out the program.
Consolidated Natural Gas Co., et al. (70-8883)
Consolidated Natural Gas Company (``CNG''), CNG Tower, Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania, 15222-3199, a registered holding company, and its wholly
owned non-utility subsidiary, CNG Energy Services Corporation (``Energy
Services'') (collectively, ``Applicants''), One Park Ridge Center,
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 15244-0746, have filed an application-
declaration, as amended, under sections 6(a), 7, 9(a), 10, 12(b) and
13(b) of the Act and rules 43, 45, 54 and 90 thereunder.
Energy Services, which markets natural gas and engages in the power
generation business, seeks Commission authorization to invest, through
December 31, 2001, up to $250 million to expand its business to market
electricity and other energy commodities and to engage in fuel
management and other incidental related activities. CNG and Energy
Services also seek Commission authorization to provide up to $250
million in guarantees or other credit support to subsidiaries that
market energy commodities (``Subsidiaries'').
The Applicants propose that Energy Services and the Subsidiaries
engage in all forms of brokering and marketing transactions, including
electricity, natural gas, coal, oil, other hydrocarbons, wood chips,
wastes and other combustibles, at wholesale and retail. All proposed
activities will be conducted by personnel of Energy Services.
The Subsidiaries might be corporations, partnerships, limited
liability companies, joint ventures or other entities in which Energy
Services might have a 100% interest, a majority equity or debt
position, or a minority equity or debt position. The Applicants also
propose that Energy Services and the Subsidiaries provide incidental
related services, such as fuel management, storage and procurement.
The Applicants contemplate that Energy Services and the
Subsidiaries engage in the proposed activities without regard to
locations or identities of clients or sources of revenues. Energy
Services and the Subsidiaries will not make retail sales of electricity
or natural gas, however, in states in which such sales are not
authorized or permitted under applicable state laws or regulations.
The Applicants request that the Commission reserve jurisdiction
over any activities by Energy Services or the Subsidiaries outside the
United States subject to completion of the record.
Finally, the applicants request that the Commission authorize
Energy Services and the Subsidiaries to acquire or construct physical
assets that are incidental and reasonably necessary in the day-to-day
conduct of marketing operations, such as oil and gas storage
facilities, gas, oil or coal reserves, or a pipeline spur needed for
deliveries of fuel to an industrial client. The Applicants represent,
however, that Energy Services and the Subsidiaries will not acquire
assets or make retail sales of energy commodities that would result in
a ``public utility company'' within the definition of the Act.
Energy Services and the Subsidiaries will take appropriate measures
in the normal course of their business to mitigate the risks associated
with electricity and fuel purchases or sales contracts. Such measures
may include matches between long-term firm or variable price
electricity sales contracts and long-term firm or variable price fuel
purchase contracts. Purchases of fuel or fuel reserves or options on
fuel reserves might also be used to hedge fuel price risks.
Energy Services and the Subsidiaries may purchase or sell
commodity-based derivative instruments, such as electricity or gas
futures contracts and options on electricity or gas futures, similar to
those traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange, and gas and oil price
swap agreements and other commodity-based derivative instruments.
Energy Services and the Subsidiaries will seek to manage a
portfolio of energy contracts involving purchases, sales and trades of
electricity and other energy commodities. Energy Services and the
Subsidiaries will seek to hedge the risks associated with these
contracts through a combination of physical assets, balanced physical
purchases and sales, purchases and sales on futures markets, or other
derivative risk management tools.
Energy Services intends to engage in transactions involving gas,
electricity and other fuel capacity rights, rate swaps and other
commodity-based derivative products that may be developed for use in
the energy markets in which it will participate in the
[[Page 63878]]
ordinary course of its business as an energy company.
Energy Services will not deal in such derivative products for
purposes of speculation, but rather would use them only to reduce
price-risk exposure through hedging.
Energy Services might also engage in energy commodities marketing
activities with the gas utility companies or other affiliates in the
CNG system on the same market terms that would be available to non-
affiliate clients.
Energy Services proposes to raise funds for the activities through
(i) sales of common stock, $1.00 par value, to CNG for up to $10,000
per share, (ii) open account advances, and (iii) long-term loans from
CNG. The open account advances and long-term loans will have the same
effective terms and interest rates as related funds borrowed by CNG.
In particular, open account advances would be made under letter
agreement with Energy Services and pursuant to a note issued by it and
would be repaid within one year with interest equal to the effective
rate of interest of the weighted average effective rate for CNG
commercial paper and/or revolving credit funds. In the absence of such
funds, the interest rate would be based on the Federal Funds effective
rate of interest quoted daily by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
Loans to Energy Services would be evidenced by long-term non-
negotiable notes that mature within thirty years with the interest
equal to the cost of comparable funds borrowed by CNG. In the absence
of such funds, the interest will be tied to the Salomon Brothers
indicative rate for comparable debt issuances published in Salomon
Brothers Inc. Bond Market Roundup or similar publication on the date
nearest to the time of takedown.
CNG will obtain the funds required for Energy Services through
internal cash generation, issuance of long-term debt securities, funds
borrowed under credit agreements or through other authorizations
approved by the Commission.
New England Electric System, et al. (70-8921)
New England Electric System (``NEES''), a registered holding
company, and its power marketing subsidiary company, NEES Energy, Inc.
(``NEES Energy'') (together, ``Applicants''), both located at 25
Research Drive, Westborough, Massachusetts 01582, and NEES Energy's
proposed power marketing subsidiary, AllEnergy Marketing Company,
L.L.C. (``AllEnergy LLC''), 3 University Office Park, 95 Sawyer Road,
Waltham, Massachusetts 02154, have filed an application-declaration
under sections 6(a), 7, 9(a), 10, 12(b) and 13(b) of the Act and rules
22, 45, 54, 90, 91 and 104 thereunder.
By orders dated May 23, 1996 (HCAR No. 26520) and August 28, 1996
(HCAR No. 26563) (``Orders''), the Commission approved the formation of
one or more marketing companies (``Marketing Companies'') by NEES in
Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Maine,
Vermont, Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York to
engage in wholesale marketing of electric power and related
transactions. Additionally, the Orders authorized the Marketing
Companies in New Hampshire and Massachusetts to participate in those
states' pilot programs for retail electric power sales. Finally, the
Orders authorized the formation of Marketing Companies in Connecticut,
Maine and Vermont to engage in the business of wholesale and retail
marketing of energy. The Commission reserved jurisdiction over retail
electric sales by Marketing Companies in Rhode Island, New York, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, New Hampshire and
Massachusetts, except to the extent that electric retail marketing is
permitted under the New Hampshire and Massachusetts pilot programs.
Pursuant to the Orders, NEES has formed NEES Energy, a Massachusetts
corporation, and Granite State Energy, Inc., a New Hampshire
corporation, to undertake marketing activities consistent with the
Commission's Orders.
NEES Energy now proposes to enter into a joint venture with a
subsidiary of Eastern Enterprises (``Eastern''), an exempt gas public
utility holding company, to engage in the marketing of energy and
related services and products. NEES Energy proposes to invest, from
time-to-time, not exceeding $50 million in, and be a voting member of
AllEnergy LLC, a limited liability corporation formed under the laws of
Massachusetts on September 18, 1996 pursuant to a Limited Liability
Company Agreement (``LLC Agreement''), subject to Commission
authorization. NEES Energy proposes to own not exceeding a 50% voting
interest in AllEnergy LLC. The remaining 50% voting interest in
AllEnergy LLC will be owned initially by AllEnergy Marketing Company,
Inc. (``Eastern Sub''), a wholly owned subsidiary of Eastern.
NEES proposes to provide initial financing, through December 31,
2001, for NEES Energy's investment in AllEnergy LLC by making capital
contributions and/or loans to NEES Energy from time-to-time, provided
that such NEES financing shall not be in excess of an aggregate of $50
million, including any short-term loans and any amounts provided by
NEES and/or NEES Energy which are used by AllEnergy LLC to acquire the
assets or securities of third parties, or to otherwise invest in a
subsidiary, pursuant to the authority requested, below, but excluding
any guarantees from NEES and/or NEES Energy. Any such loans will be in
the form of non-interest bearing subordinated notes payable in twenty
years or less from the date of issue. NEES Energy may prepay any or all
of such outstanding notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from
time-to-time without premium or penalty.
AllEnergy LLC will engage in the business of marketing and selling:
(1) energy commodities, including electricity, natural gas, oil and
other energy sources as well as options, futures contracts, forward
contracts, collars, spot contracts or swap contracts related to the
choice, purchase or consumption of any such energy commodity and any
other related financial products; and (2) incidental and reasonably
necessary products and services related to the choice, purchase or
consumption of any such energy commodity, whether or not sold or
provided on a bundled basis with natural gas, electricity, oil, or
other energy source, such as, but not limited to, audits, power
quality, fuel supply, repair, maintenance, construction, design,
engineering and consulting.
AllEnergy LLC will employ various risk-reduction measures to limit
potential losses that could be incurred through AllEnergy LLC
activities. These measures may include energy commodity hedging
transactions. AllEnergy LLC will not engage in speculative trading in
the energy market.
While AllEnergy LLC's initial efforts will focus on the Northeast
region, it may expand its business to all 50 states, and, subject to
Commission approval, to Canada. AllEnergy LLC will engage in brokering
and retail marketing of electric power and natural gas within a state
or other jurisdiction only to the extent permitted or authorized under
such state's or other jurisdiction's laws or programs.
AllEnergy LLC also proposes to form one or more subsidiaries in
order, among other things, to pursue its business in a particular
target state. It will make an initial equity contribution in an amount
not to exceed $100,000 in any one subsidiary. The form of the
[[Page 63879]]
initial investment, together with the formalities of the subsidiary's
formation, may vary depending on the type of entity organized. It may
involve the acquisition of common stock, a partnership interest,
membership interest or an interest pursuant to an organizational
agreement.
AllEnergy LLC may have opportunities to acquire businesses to
complement its business, such as, but not limited to, engineering
services and the propane gas business. AllEnergy LLC will not acquire
any utility assets or gas distribution facilities, as those terms are
defined under the Act, regulations and orders issued thereunder, and
will, therefore, not be either an electric or gas utility under the
Act.
AllEnergy LLC proposes to acquire a propane gas marketing business
operating in the Eastern United States for a price not exceeding $3.5
million. The terms of the acquisition will likely require, without
limitation: (1) the payment or cancellation of the acquired entities
debt prior to the acquisition; (2) execution of agreements by key
employees of the acquired entity to continue employment; (3) the
assignment of material contracts, contract rights and other rights and
commitments of the acquired entity to AllEnergy LLC; and (4) the making
of customary representations and warranties by the acquired entity and
AllEnergy LLC, respectively.
The LLC Agreement provides that in the event an AllEnergy LLC
member defaults in making a required capital contribution to AllEnergy
LLC, the non-defaulting member may, at its discretion, advance to
AllEnergy LLC on behalf of the defaulting member all or a portion of
such required capital contribution (``Member Default Loan''). The
defaulting member is responsible for repaying the Member Default Loan
to the member making such loan in accordance with the LLC Agreement. In
the event that: (1) the non-defaulting member elects not to make such a
Member Default Loan; or (2) the Member Default Loan is not repaid, then
the member's percentage interests in AllEnergy LLC shall, at the
election of the non-defaulting member, be adjusted to reflect the
failure of the defaulting member to either make the required capital
contribution, or repay the Member Default Loan, as the case may be, in
accordance with a formula set forth in the LLC Agreement.
Members of AllEnergy LLC may effect a transfer of all or a portion
of their interest in accordance with terms of the LLC Agreement. Such
transfers may include required regulatory transfers, transfers to
affiliates, transfers to another member of AllEnergy LLC, and transfers
to third parties. The LLC Agreement provides that, in the event an
AllEnergy LLC member receives an offer to purchase its interest and
intends to transfer its interest pursuant to such offer, or must make a
required regulatory transfer of all or a portion of its interest, the
other member shall have a right to purchase such interest at the offer
price, or at the fair market value of the transferred portion of such
interest, in the case of a required regulatory transfer.
The LLC Agreement provides a mechanism whereby either NEES Energy
or Eastern Sub may trigger a withdrawal of either party from AllEnergy
LLC by means of a buy/sell transaction (``Buy/Sell Provision''). The
Buy/Sell Provision permits either party to withdraw by giving the other
party a notice of intention to withdraw indicating a cash price at
which the withdrawing party would be willing to either buy or sell its
interest in AllEnergy LLC. The party receiving such notice may then
either buy the other party's AllEnergy LLC interest, or sell its own
AllEnergy LLC interest to such other party, at such price. The Buy/Sell
Provision is intended as a means of addressing disputes between NEES
Energy and Eastern Sub in connection with AllEnergy LLC which the
parties are unable to resolve.
AllEnergy LLC staffing is expected to begin with a small group of
employees. It is intended that four employees of New England Power
Service Company (``NEPSCO'') will be assigned to AllEnergy LLC on a
full-time basis. To the extent any more NEPSCO personnel are assigned
to AllEnergy LLC, they will become employees of AllEnergy LLC. Other
than such four NEPSCO employees, AllEnergy LLC will have its own
employees and only rely on NEPSCO or an Eastern subsidiary for
administrative services such as accounting, tax, legal, information
services, insurance, and personnel management. All costs associated
with these NEPSCO services, and with services of the above four NEPSCO
employees assigned to AllEnergy LLC on a full-time basis, would be
fully reimbursed on a cost basis by AllEnergy LLC in accordance with
Rules 90 and 91 of the Act. Reimbursements for these costs will be on a
thirty-day cycle basis.
AllEnergy LLC intends to engage in short-term borrowing from third
parties under rule 52(b) of the Act. The borrowing will be solely for
the purpose of financing AllEnergy LLC's existing business. The
interest rates and maturity dates of any debt security issued to an
associate company of AllEnergy LLC will be designed to parallel the
effective cost of capital of that associate company. The Applicants may
also be required to supply guarantees or other credit support
agreements for AllEnergy LLC in the ordinary course of its business
including, without limitation, in connection with its execution of
office leases, or of long term gas or electrical supply contracts. The
Applicants request authorization to provide such guarantees or credit
support in amounts not to exceed $20 million in the aggregate and
inclusive of guarantees or credit support provided in connection with
short-term borrowing, above.
Columbia Gas System, Inc., et al. (70-8965)
Columbia Gas System, Inc. (``Columbia''), 12355 Sunrise Valley
Drive, Suite 300, Reston, Virginia 20191-3420, a registered holding
company, and Columbia Gas of Maryland, Inc. (``Columbia Maryland''),
200 Civic Center Drive, Columbus, Ohio, 43215, a natural gas subsidiary
company of Columbia, have filed an application-declaration under
sections 6(a), 7, 9(a) and 10 of the Act and rule 43 thereunder.
The application-declaration seeks Commission authorization for
Columbia Maryland to refinance long-term debt.
By order dated December 22, 1994 (HCAR No. 26201), Columbia
Maryland was authorized through 1996 to sell to Columbia securities
(``Old Notes'') in an aggregate amount of up to $5.5 million. By order
dated January 25, 1996 (HCAR No. 26462) (``Order''), Columbia and
Columbia Maryland were authorized to change the type of securities
Columbia Maryland would sell to Columbia (``New Notes'') and, in order
to refinance all previously issued Old Notes, to increase the amount of
New Notes to be sold to $19.5 million.
The Order authorized the exchange of Old Notes by Columbia Maryland
for New Notes on or around December 31, 1995 as well as the future
issuance of New Notes to meet the capital needs of Columbia Maryland in
1996. However, due to various administrative delays, the exchange of
Old Notes never occurred.
The application-declaration now seeks Commission authorization for
Columbia Maryland, on or around December 31, 1996, to exchange Old
Notes sold to Columbia, which total approximately $18.0 million, for
New Notes.
The New Notes will have a weighted average interest rate below that
of the Old Notes. The maturities and interest
[[Page 63880]]
rates of the New Notes will mirror the seven series of debentures that
were issued by Columbia upon emergence from bankruptcy (HCAR No.
26361). The New Notes will be governed by the terms of a loan agreement
in certificated form and will be secured or unsecured.
For the Commission, by the Division of Investment Management,
pursuant to delegated authority.
Margaret H. McFarland,
Deputy Secretary.
