Nicole Energy Marketing of Illinois, Inc.; Notice of Issuance of 
Order

October 25, 2000.
    Nicole Energy Marketing of Illinois, Inc. (Nicole Energy) submitted 
for filing a rate schedule under which Nicole Energy will engage in 
wholesale electric power and energy transactions at market-based rates. 
Nicole Energy also requested waiver of various Commission regulations. 
In particular, Nicole Energy requested that the Commission grant 
blanket approval under 18 CFR Part 34 of all future issuances of 
securities and assumptions of liability by Nicole Energy.
    On October 18, 2000, 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 Nicole Energy should file a motion to

    Absent a request for hearing within this period, Nicole Energy is 
authorized to issue securities and assume obligations or liabilities as 
a guarantor, indorser, 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 Nicole Energy's issuances of securities or 
assumptions of liability.
    Notice is hereby given that the deadline for filing motions to
