[Docket No. EL02-48-000]


California Power Exchange Corporation; Notice of Petition for 
Declaratory Order

January 15, 2002.
    Take notice that on January 15, 2002, the California Power Exchange 
Corporation (PX) filed a Petition for Declaratory Order. The Petition 
requests that the Commission issue a declaratory order stating that it 
is in the public interest for the successor of the PX to remain an 
independent entity not controlled by any segment of electric industry 
participants.
    The PX requests that the Commission issue the declaratory order no 
later than January 31, 2002 for the purpose of providing guidance to 
the Bankruptcy Court, which is holding a hearing on February 1, 2002 to 
consider a Disclosure Statement and Reorganization Plan that would 
permit ``seller-side'' participants of the PX to acquire substantial 
control of the successor to the PX. Accordingly, the PX requests a 
shortened response time, sufficient to permit the Commission to issue 
its declaratory order by January 31, 2002.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest such filing 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). All such motions and 
protests should be filed on or before the comment date. Protests will 
be considered by the Commission to determine the appropriate action to 
be taken, but will not serve to make protestants parties to the 
proceedings. Any person wishing to become a party must file a motion to 
intervene. Copies of this filing are on file with the Commission and 
are available for public inspection. This filing may also be viewed on 
the web at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``RIMS'' link, select 
``Docket#'' and follow the instructions (call 202-208-2222 for

electronically via the Internet in lieu of paper. See, 18 CFR 
385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's web site
