    Take notice that the following filings have been made with the 
Commission:

1. TIFD VIII-H Inc.

[Docket No. EG94-84-000]

    On July 18, 1994, TIFD VIII-H Inc. (TIFD), the principal place of 
business for which is 1600 Summer Street, 5th Floor, Stamford, 
Connecticut 06927, filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 
an application for determination of exempt wholesale generator status 
pursuant to Part 365 of the Commission's regulations.
    TIFD has represented that it will be engaged directly and 
exclusively in the business of owning two low-pressure steam turbines 
(the Facility), and selling electric energy at wholesale. TIFD intends 
to lease the Facility to Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Corporation (the 
Lessee) for installation at the Lessee's nuclear power plant in Vernon, 
Vermont (Vermont Yankee Plant). The electric energy generated by the 
Vermont Yankee Plant is sold exclusively at wholesale. No rate or 
charge for, or in connection with, the construction of the Facility, or 
for electric energy produced by the Facility, has ever been in effect 
under the laws of any State of the United States. Accordingly, TIFD 
submits that no State Commission determinations are required.
    Comment date: August 4, 1994, in accordance with Standard Paragraph 
E at the end of this notice. The Commission will limit its 
consideration of comments to those that concern the adequacy or 
accuracy of the application.

3. TIFD VIII-H Inc.

[Docket No. EL94-79-000]

    On July 18, 1994, TIFD VIII-H Inc. (TIFD), the principal place of 
business for which is 1600 Summer Street, 5th Floor, Stamford, 
Connecticut 06927, filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 
(FERC or the Commission) a Petition for a Declaratory Order requesting 
that the Commission disclaim jurisdiction over it in connection with 
its proposed lease of two low pressure steam turbine generators (the 
Facility) to Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Corporation (Vermont Yankee). 
Concurrently with its Petition, TIFD has submitted an application for a 
declaration that it is an Exempt Wholesale Generator pursuant to 
Section 32 of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as 
amended, 15 U.S.C. Sec. 79z-5a (Supp. IV 1993).
    TIFD has represented that it will acquire the Facility from the 
manufacturer and immediately lease it to Vermont Yankee under a net 
operating lease. Its role as owner-lessor of the Facility will be 
purely as a passive investor. At no time during the term of the lease 
will TIFD have possession of the Facility or exercise any influence or 
control over its operation. Payments under the lease are in no way 
connected with the economic performance of the Facility. Consequently, 
TIFD requests that the Commission declare that it is not a ``public 
utility'' for purposes of Section 201(e) of the Federal Power Act 
(FPA), 16 U.S.C. Sec. 824(e) (1988) and that, as a result, neither it 
nor the lease is subject to regulation under the FPA.
    Comment date: August 4, 1994, in accordance with Standard Paragraph 
E at the end of this notice. The Commission will limit its 
consideration of comments to those that concern the adequacy or 
accuracy of the application.
