TransAlta Enterprises Corporation; Notice of Issuance of Order
June 24, 1996.
TransAlta Enterprises Corporation (TransAlta) filed an application
for authorization to sell power at market-based rates, and for certain
waivers and authorizations. In particular, TransAlta requested that the
Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR Part 34 of all future
issuances of securities and assumptions of liabilities by TransAlta. On
June 12, 1996, the Commission issued an Order Granting Late
Intervention, Accepting Market-Based Rates, and Granting Waivers and
Authorizations (Order), in the above-docketed proceeding.
The Commission's June 12, 1996 Order granted the request for
blanket approval under Part 34, subject to the conditions found in
Ordering Paragraphs (D), (E), and (G):
(D) Within 30 days of the date of this order, any person desiring
to be heard or to protest the Commission's blanket approval of
issuances of securities or assumptions of liabilities by TransAlta
should file a motion to intervene or protest with the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426,
in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of
Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.211 and 385.214.
(E) Absent a request to be heard within the period set forth in
Ordering Paragraph (D) above, TransAlta is hereby authorized to issue
securities and to assume obligations or liabilities as guarantor,
endorser, surety or otherwise in respect of any security of another
person; provided that such issue or assumption is for some lawful
object within the corporate purposes of TransAlta, compatible with the
public interest, and reasonably necessary or appropriate for such
purposes.
(G) The Commission reserves the right to modify this order to
require a further showing that neither public nor private interests
will be adversely affected by continued Commission approval of
TransAlta's issuances of securities or assumptions of liabilities. * *
*.
Notice is hereby given that the deadline for filing motions to
intervene or protests, as set forth above, is July 12, 1996.
Copies of the full text of the Order are available from the
Commission's Public Reference Branch, 888 First Street, N.E.,
