Monterey Consulting Associates, Inc.; Notice of Issuance of Order

August 16, 1996.
    Monterey Consulting Associates, Inc. (Monterey) submitted for 
filing a rate schedule under which Monterey will engage in wholesale 
electric power and energy transactions as a marketer. Monterey also 
requested waiver of various Commission regulations. In particular, 
Monterey requested that the Commission grant blanket approval under 18 
CFR Part 34 of all future issuances of securities and assumptions of 
liability by Monterey.
    On August 8, 1996, pursuant to delegated authority, the Director, 
Division of Applications, Office of Electric Power Regulation, granted 
requests for blanket approval under Part 34, subject to the following:
    Within 30 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 Monterey 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 for hearing within this period, Monterey 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 Monterey's 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 September 9, 1996.
    Copies of the full text of the order are available from the 
Commission's Public Reference Branch, 888 First Street, NE.,
