Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Energy Transfer--Hanover 
Ventures, LP; Notice of Issuance of Order

February 11, 2003.
    Energy Transfer--Hanover Ventures, LP (Energy Transfer), submitted 
for filing a rate schedule under which Energy Transfer will engage in 
wholesale electric energy and capacity at market-based rates. Energy 
Transfer also requested waiver of various Commission regulations. In 
particular, Energy Transfer requested that the Commission grant blanket 
approval under 18 CFR part 34 of all future issuances of securities and 
assumptions of liability by Energy Transfer.
    On October 29, 2001, pursuant to delegated authority, the Director, 
Division of Tariffs and Rates--West, 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 Energy 
Transfer 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).
    Notice is hereby given that the deadline for filing motions to 
intervene or protests, as set forth above, is February 21, 2003.
    Absent a request to be heard in opposition by the deadline above, 
Energy Transfer 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 Energy Transfer, 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 Energy Transfer's issuances of securities or 
assumptions of liability.
