MEP Clarksdale Power, LLC; Notice of Issuance of Order

March 13, 2002.
    MEP Clarksdale Power, LLC (MEP Clarksdale) submitted for filing a 
rate tariff under which MEP Clarksdale will engage in the sales of 
energy and capacity at market-based rates. MEP Clarksdale also 
requested waiver of various Commission regulations. In particular, MEP 
Clarksdale requested that the Commission grant blanket approval under 
18 CFR part 34 of all future issuances of securities and assumptions of 
liability by MEP Clarksdale.
    On March 11, 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 MEP 
Clarksdale should file a motion to intervene or protest with the

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, MEP 
Clarksdale 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 
MEP Clarksdale, 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 MEP Clarksdale'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 April 10, 2002.
