Issuance of Order

February 18, 1998.
    Southern Energy Retail Trading and Marketing, Inc. (Southern 
Energy) filed an application to engage in the wholesale sale of 
electric capacity and energy at market-based rates, and for certain 
waivers and authorizations. In particular, Southern Energy requested 
that the Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR Part 34 of all 
future issuances of securities and assumptions of liabilities by 
Southern Energy. On February 13, 1998, the Commission issued an Order 
Accepting For Filing Proposed Market-Based Rates (Order), in the above-
docketed proceeding.
    The Commission's February 13, 1998 Order granted the request for 
blanket approval under Part 34, subject to the conditions found in 
Ordering Paragraphs (C), (D), and (F):

Ordering Paragraph (C) above, Southern Energy is 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 Southern Energy, compatible 
with the public interest, and reasonably necessary or appropriate for 
such purposes.
    (F) 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 Southern 
Energy's issuances of securities or assumptions of liabilities.* * *
