Federal Energy Regulatory Commission


El Cap II, LLC; Notice of Issuance of Order

 July 30, 2003.
    El Cap II, LLC (El Cap) filed an application for market-based rate 
authority, with an accompanying rate schedule. The proposed rate 
schedule provides for wholesale sales of capacity and electric energy 
at market-based rates, and the resale of transmission rights and 
reassignment of transmission capacity. El Cap also requested waiver of 
various Commission regulations. In particular, El Cap requested that 
the Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR part 34 of all 
future issuances of securities and assumptions of liability by El Cap.
    On July 28, 2003, pursuant to delegated authority, the Director, 
Division of Tariffs and Market Development--South, granted the request 
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 El Cap 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 August 27, 2003.
    Absent a request to be heard in opposition by the deadline above, 
El Cap 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 
El Cap, 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 El Cap's issuances of securities or assumptions 
of liability.
    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 Commission's
