California Polar Power Brokers, L.L.C.; Notice of Issuance of 
Order

January 2, 1998.
    California Polar Power Brokers, L.L.C. (California Brokers) 
submitted for filing a rate schedule under which California Brokers 
will engage in wholesale electric power and energy transactions as a 
marketer. California Brokers also requested waiver of various 
Commission regulations. In particular, California Brokers requested 
that the Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR Part 34 of all 
future issuances of securities and assumptions of liability by 
California Brokers.
    On December 29, 1997, pursuant to delegated authority, the 
Director, Division of Rate Applications, Office of Electric Power 
Regulation, 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 California Brokers 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).
    Absent a request for hearing within this period, California Brokers 
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 California Brokers' issuances of securities or 
assumptions of liability.
    Notice is hereby given that the deadline for filing motions to 
intervene or protest, as set forth above, is January 28, 1998. Copies 
of the full text of the order are available from the Commission's 
Public Reference Branch, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 
20426.

Acting Secretary.
