Emera Energy U.S. Subsidiary No. 1, Inc.; Notice of Issuance of 
Order

February 26, 2004.
    Emera Energy U.S. Subsidiary No. 1, Inc. (Emera Sub No. 1) filed an 
application for market-based rate authority, with an accompanying 
tariff. The proposed tariff provides for wholesale sales of capacity 
and energy at market-based rates. Emera Sub No. 1 also requested waiver 
of various Commission regulations. In particular, Emera Sub No. 1 
requested that the Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR part 
34 of all future issuances of securities and assumptions of liability 
by the Emera Sub No. 1.
    On February 24, 2004, 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 Emera Sub No. 
1 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 March 25, 2004.
    Absent a request to be heard in opposition by the deadline above, 
Emera Sub No. 1 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 Emera Sub No. 1, 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 Emera Sub No. 1'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
