Canadian Niagara Power Company, Limited; Notice of Issuance of 
Order

April 26, 1999.
    Canadian Niagara Power Company, Limited (Canadian Niagara), filed 
an application seeking Commission authorization to engage in the sale 
of energy and capacity at market-based rates, and for certain waivers 
and authorizations. In particular, Canadian Niagara requested that the 
Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR Part 34 of all future 
issuances of securities and assumptions of liabilities by Canadian 
Niagara. On April 15, 1999, the Commission issued an Order Accepting 
For Filing Proposed Rate Schedules for Sales Of Capacity, Energy And 
Ancillary Services At Market-Based Rates (Order), in the above-docketed 
proceeding.
    The Commission's April 15, 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

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, Canadian Niagara 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 Canadian Niagara, 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 Canadian 
Niagara's issuances of securities or assumptions of liabili
ties. * * *
    Notice is hereby given that the deadline for filing motions to 
intervene or protests, as set forth above, is May 17, 1999.
