Heard County Power, L.L.C.; Notice of Issuance of Order

March 6, 2001.
    Heard County Power, L.L.C. (Heard County) submitted for filing a 
rate schedule under which Heard County will engage in wholesale 
electric power and energy transactions at market-based rates. Heard 
County also requested waiver of various Commission regulations. In 
particular, Heard County requested that the Commission grant blanket 
approval under 18 CFR Part 34 of all future issuances of securities and 
assumptions of liability by Heard County.
    On February 27, 2001, pursuant to delegated authority, the 
Director, Division of Corporate Applications, Office of Markets, 
Tariffs and Rates, granted requests for blanket approval under Part 34, 
subject to the following:
    Within thirty days of the date of the order, any person desiring to 
be heard or to protest the blanket approval of issuances of securities 
or assumptions of liability by Heard County 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).
    Absent a request to be heard in opposition within this period, 
Heard County is authorized to issue securities and assume obligations 
or liabilities as a guarantor, endorser, surety, or otherwise in 
respect of any security of another person; provided that such issuance 
or assumption is for some lawful object within the corporate purposes 
of the applicant, and compatible with the public interest, and is 
reasonably necessary or appropriate for such purposes.
    The Commission reserves the right to require a further showing that 
neither public nor private interests will be adversely affected by 
continued approval of Heard County's issuances of securities or 
assumptions of liability.
    Notice is hereby given that the deadline for filing motions to 
intervene or protests, as set forth above, is March 29, 2001.
    Copies of the full text of the Order are available from the 
Commission's Public Reference Branch, 888 First Street, NE.,
