[Docket No. ER01-373-000 and ER01-373-001]


Tiger Natural Gas, Inc.; Notice of Issuance of Order

March 1, 2001.
    Tiger Natural Gas, Inc. (Tiger) submitted for filing a rate 
schedule under which Tiger will engage in wholesale electric power and 
energy transactions at market-based rates. Tiger also requested waiver 
of various Commission regulations. In particular, Tiger requested that 
the Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR part 34 of all 
future issuances of securities and assumptions of liability by Tiger.
    On February 15, 2001, pursuant to delegated authority, the 
Director, Division of Corporate Applications, Office of Markets, 
Tariffs and Rates, 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 Tiger 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 to be heard in opposition within this period, 
Tiger 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 Tiger'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 March 19, 2001.
    Copies of the full text of the Order are available from the 
Commission's Public Reference Branch, 888 First Street, NE.,
