DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Docket No. ER99-2229-000]
California Power Exchange Corp; Issuance of Order
May 28, 1999.
California Power Exchange Corporation (PX), on behalf of a soon-to-
be established division, CalPX Trading Services (CTS), filed a proposal
to establish a ``Block-Forward Market'' for the sales and purchases of
energy for delivery through the PX Day-Ahead Market, to become
effective on the date that CTS operations commence. The filing requests
market-based rate treatment for the Block-Forward Market. On behalf of
CTS, the PX also requested authorizations and waivers of various
Commission regulations, consistent with those granted other various
marketers. In particular, the proposal requested that the Commission
grant blanket approval under 18 CFR part 34 of all future issuances of
securities and assumptions of liabilities by CTS. On May 26, 1999, the
Commission issued an Order Accepting For Filing Proposed Block-Forward
Market, As Modified (Order), in the above-docketed proceeding.
The Commission's May 26, 1999 Order granted the request for blanket
approval under part 34, subject to the conditions found in Ordering
Paragraphs (G), (H), and (I):
(G) Within 30 days of the date of issuance 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
CTS should file a motion to intervene or protest with the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC
20426, in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's rules
of practice and procedure, 18 CFR 385.211 and 385.214.
(H) Absent a request to be heard within the period set forth in
Ordering Paragraph (G) above, CTS is hereby authorized to issue
securities and
[[Page 29854]]
assume obligations and liabilities as guarantor, indorser, 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 CTS, compatible with the public interest, and reasonably
necessary or appropriate for such purposes.
(I) 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 CTS'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 June 25, 1999.
Copies of the full text of the Order are available from the
Commission's Public Reference Branch, 888 First Street, NE.,
Washington, DC 20426.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
