Foothills Generating, L.L.C.; Notice of Issuance of Order

February 11, 2002.
    Foothills Generating, L.L.C. (Foothills) submitted for filing a 
tariff under which Foothills will engage in the sale of energy services 
and capacity at market-based rates. Foothills also requested waiver of 
various Commission regulations. In particular, Foothills requested that 
the Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR part 34 of all 
future issuances of securities and assumptions of liability by 
Foothills.
    On January 31, 2002, pursuant to delegated authority, the Director, 
Office of Markets, Tariffs and Rates-Central, granted requests for 
blanket approval under part 34, subject to the following:
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest the blanket approval 
of issuances of securities or assumptions of liability by Foothills 
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, 
Foothills 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 
Foothills, 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 Foothills' 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 4, 2002.
    Copies of the full text of the Order are available from the 
Commission's Public Reference Branch, 888 First Street, NE., 
Washington, DC 20426. The Order may also be viewed on the Internet at
