LLC and Louisiana Generating LLC, San Joaquin Cogen Limited, and 
Baltimore Gas and Electric Company, Calvert Cliffs, Inc., Constellation 
Generation, Inc. and Constellation Power Source, 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 March 29, 2000, 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 March 29, 2000 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, 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.
    (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 April 28, 2000.
