NEO California Power LLC; Notice of Issuance of Order

May 9, 2001.
    NEO California Power LLC (NEO) submitted for filing a rate schedule 
under which NEO will engage in wholesale electric power and energy 
transactions at market-based rates. NEO also requested waiver of 
various Commission regulations. In particular, NEO requested that the 
Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR Part 34 of all future 
issuances of securities and assumptions of liability by NEO.
    On April 27, 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 NEO 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, NEO 
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 NEO'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 May 29, 2001.
    Copies of the full text of the Order are available from the
