AYP Energy, Inc.; Notice of Application for Commission
Determination of Exempt Wholesale Generator Status
June 19, 1996.
On June 7, 1996, AYP Energy, Inc. (``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.
Applicant is a corporation organized under the laws of the state of
Delaware. Applicant is a wholly owned subsidiary of AYP Capital, Inc.
(``AYP''), which itself is a wholly owned subsidiary of Allegheny Power
System, Inc. (``APS''), a registered electric utility holding company.
Applicant's business address is c/o Allegheny Power Service
Corporation, 800 Cabin Hill Drive, Greensburg, PA 15601 (Attn: Theresa
Colecchia).
The eligible facility consists primarily of a 50 percent undivided
interest in Unit No. 1 of the Fort Martin Power Station, an operating
steam-electric generating unit, and associated portion of Ft. Martin
Unit 1's main transformers. Ft. Martin Unit 1 is located in West
Virginia on the Monongahela River between Morgantown, West Virginia and
Point Marion, Pennsylvania. The portion of Ft. Martin Unit 1 that is
the eligible facility is currently owned by Duquesne Light Company
(``Duquesne''), a Pennsylvania public utility not affiliated with APS;
however, Duquesne has entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (dated
November 28, 1995) with AYP, pursuant to which Duquesne will sell on or
before December 31, 1996 its undivided ownership interest in Ft. Martin
Unit 1 (including its interest in the transformers) to AYP, which will
assign the Asset Purchase Agreement to AYP Energy, Inc. The remainder
of the facility of which the eligible facility is a portion is owned by
Monogahela Power Company (``MPC'') and The Potomac Edison Company
(``PEC''), two of the three wholly owned electric operating
subsidiaries of APS.
Any person desiring to be heard concerning the application for
exempt wholesale generator status should file a motion to intervene or
comments with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First
Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426, in accordance with Secs. 385.211
and 385.214 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure. The
Commission will limit its consideration of comments to those that
concern the adequacy or accuracy of the application. All such motions
or comments should be filed on or before June 28, 1996, and must be
served on the applicant. Any person wishing to become a party must file
