Oswego Harbor Power LLC, Okeechobee Generating Company, Duke Energy
Merchants, LLC, CMS Generation Michigan Power, L.L.C., Midwest
Generation, LLC, Casco Bay Energy Company, LLC, Northbrook New York,
LLC, and Bay State GPE, Inc. (hereafter, ``the Applicants'') filed with
the Commission rate schedules in the above-captioned proceedings,
respectively, under which the Applicants will engage in 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
that the Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR Part 34 of all
future issuances of securities and assumptions of liabilities by the
Applicants. On September 15, 1999, the Commission issued an order that
accepted the rate schedules for sales of capacity and energy at market-
based rates (Order), in the above-docketed proceedings.
The Commission's September 15, 1999 Order granted, for those
Applicants that sought such approval, their request for blanket
approval under Part 34, subject to the conditions found in Appendix B
in Ordering Paragraphs (2), (3), and (5):
(2) 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 the Applicants
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.
(3) Absent a request to be heard within the period set forth in
Ordering Paragraph (2) above, if the Applicants have requested such
authorization, the Applicants are hereby authorized to issue securities
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.
(5) 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 the
Applicants' 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 October 15, 1999.
