Aurora Power Resources, Inc.; Notice of Issuance of Order

January 21, 1998.
    Aurora Power Resources, Inc. (Aurora) submitted for filing a rate 
schedule under which Aurora will engage in wholesale electric power and 
energy transactions as a marketer. Aurora also requested waiver of 
various Commission regulations. In particular, Aurora requested that 
the Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR Part 34 of all 
future issuances of securities and assumptions of liability by Aurora.
    On January 20, 1998, 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 Aurora 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, Aurora 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 Aurora'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 February 19, 1998. Copies 
of the full text of the order are available from the Commission's 
Public Reference Branch, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426.
