Georgia Energy Cooperative; Notice of Issuance of Order

March 29, 2005.
    Georgia Energy Cooperative (GEC) filed an application for market-
based rate authority, with an accompanying tariff. The proposed rate 
tariff provides for wholesale sales of energy and capacity at market-
based rates. GEC also requested waiver of various Commission 
regulations. In particular, GEC requested that the Commission grant 
blanket approval under 18 CFR part 34 of all future issuances of 
securities and assumptions of liability by GEC.
    On March 24, 2005, the Commission 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 GEC 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, 385.214 (2004).
    Notice is hereby given that the deadline for filing motions to 
intervene or protest, is April 25, 2005.
    Absent a request to be heard in opposition by the deadline above, 
GEC 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 
GEC, 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 GEC's issuances of securities or assumptions of 
liability.
    Copies of the full text of the Commission's Order are available

Washington, DC 20426. The Order may also be viewed on the Commission's
