March 15, 1999.
    Monmouth Energy, Inc. (Monmouth), a wholly-owned subsidiary of DQE 
Energy Services, Inc., filed a revised Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) 
between Monmouth and GPU Energy requesting Commission approval of the 
revised PPA, and for certain waivers and authorizations. In particular, 
Monmouth requested that the Commission grant blanket approval under 18 
CFR Part 34 of all future issuances of securities and assumptions of 
liabilities by Monmouth. On March 12, 1999, the Commission issued an 
Order Accepting For Filing Proposed Revised Power Purchase Agreement, 
Directing Refunds, And Allowing Market-Based Rates For Uncommitted 
Energy (Order), in the above-docketed proceeding.
    The Commission's March 12, 1999 Order granted the request for

Ordering Paragraph (F) above, Monmouth is hereby authorized to issue

object within the corporate purposes of Monmouth, compatible with the 
public interest and reasonably necessary or appropriate for such 
purposes.
