Alliance Energy Services Partnership; Notice of Issuance of Order

August 23, 2001.
    Alliance Energy Services Partnership (AESP) submitted for filing a 
rate schedule under which AESP will engage in wholesale electric power 
and energy transactions at market-based rates. AESP also requested 
waiver of various Commission regulations. In particular, AESP requested 
that the Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR Part 34 of all 
future issuances of securities and assumptions of liability by AESP.
    On August 16, 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 AESP 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).
    Absent a request to be heard in opposition within this period, AESP 
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 AESP 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 AESP'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 September 17, 2001.
