Minnesota Agri-Power, L.L.C.; Notice of Issuance of Order

March 1, 1999.
    Minnesota Agri-Power, L.L.C. (Minnesota Agri-Power), a Delaware 
limited liability company authorized to transact business in the state 
of Minnesota, filed a proposed rate schedule that would allow it to 
make sales of power at market-based rates, and for certain waivers and 
authorizations. In particular, Minnesota Agri-Power requested that the 
Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR Part 34 of all future 
issuances of securities and assumptions of liabilities by Minnesota 
Agri-Power. On February 26, 1999, the Commission issued an Order 
Conditionally Accepting For Filing Proposed Rate Schedules For Sales Of 
Capacity And Energy At Market-Based Rates (Order), in the above-
docketed proceeding.
    The Commission's February 26, 1999 Order granted the request for 
blanket approval under Part 34, subject to the conditions found in 
Ordering Paragraphs (C), (D), and (F):
    (C) Within 30 days of the date of this order, any person desiring 
to be heard or to protest the Commission's blanket approval of 
issuances of securities or assumptions of liabilities by Minnesota 
Agri-Power should file a motion to intervene or protest with the 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., 
Washington, D.C. 20426, in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.211 and 
385.214.
    (D) Absent a request to be heard within the period set forth in 
Ordering Paragraph (C) above, Minnesota Agri-Power 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 Minnesota Agri-Power, 
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 
Minnesota Agri-Power's issuances of securities or assumptions of 
liabilities. * * *
    Notice is hereby given that the deadline for filing motions to 
intervene or protests, as set forth above, is March 29, 1999.
