[Docket Nos. ER02-1054-000, ER02-1055-000, and ER02-1056-000]
NRG Northern Ohio Generating LLC; NRG Ashtabula Generating LLC;
and NRG Lakeshore Generating LLC; Notice of Issuance of Order
June 7, 2002.
NRG Northern Ohio Generating LLC, NRG Ashtabula Generating LLC, and
NRG Lakeshore Generating LLC (collectively, ``the NRG Companies'') each
filed an application for market-based rate authority, with accompanying
tariffs and codes of conduct. The proposed market-based tariffs provide
for the wholesale sale of electric energy, capacity, and ancillary
services, and the sale, assignment or transfer of transmission
capacity. The NRG Companies also requested waiver of various Commission
regulations. In particular, the NRG Companies requested that the
Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR part 34 of all future
issuances of securities and assumptions of liability by the NRG
Companies .
On March 29, 2002, pursuant to delegated authority, the Director,
Office of Markets, Tariffs and Rates-Central, granted requests for
blanket approval under Part 34, subject to the following:
Any person desiring to be heard or to protest the blanket approval
of issuances of securities or assumptions of liability by the NRG
Companies 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, the
NRG Companies are 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 NRG Companies, 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 the NRG Companies' 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 June 17, 2002.
Copies of the full text of the Order are available from the
Commission's Public Reference Branch, 888 First Street, NE, Washington,
