November 18, 1996.
    Lykes-Duke/Louis Dreyfus, Ltd. (Lykes-Duke) filed an application 
for authorization to sell power at market-based rates, and for certain 
waivers and authorizations. In particular, Lykes-Duke requested that 
the Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR Part 34 of all 
future issuances of securities and assumptions of liabilities by Lykes-
Duke. On November 1, 1996, the Commission issued an Order Accepting For 
Filing Proposed Market-Based Rates (Order), in the above-docketed

blanket approval under Part 34, subject to the conditions found in 
Ordering Paragraphs (C), (D), and (F):

Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426,

Ordering Paragraph (C) above, Lykes-Duke is hereby authorized, pursuant

of any security of another person; provided that such issue or 
assumption is for some lawful object within the corporate purposes of 
Lykes-Duke, compatible with the public interest, and reasonably 
necessary or appropriate for such purposes.
    (F) The Commission reserves the right to modify this order and to 
require a further showing that neither public nor private interests 
will be adversely affected by continued Commission approval of Lykes-
Duke's issuances of securities or assumptions of liabilities * * *.
    Notice is hereby given that the deadline for filing motions to 
intervent or protests, as set forth above, is December 2, 1996.
