filed with the Commission rate schedules in the above-captioned

wholesale electric power and energy transactions at market-based rates,
and for certain waivers and authorizations. In particular, certain of
the Applicants may also have requested in their respective applications

and 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 the Applicants, compatible with the public
interest, and reasonably necessary or appropriate for such purposes.

require a further showing that neither public nor private interests
will be adversely affected by continued Commission approval of the
Applicants' issuances of securities or assumptions of liabilities * *
