Order

April 5, 2005.
    Illinois Power Company, d/b/a AmerenIP (Illinois Power) filed an 
application for market-based rate authority, with an accompanying 
tariff. The proposed tariff provides for wholesale sales of energy and 
capacity at market-based rates. Illinois Power also requested waiver of 
various Commission regulations. In particular, Illinois Power requested 
that the Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR part 34 of all 
future issuances of securities and assumptions of liability by Illinois 
Power.
    On March 31, 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 Illinois 
Power 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 May 2, 2005.
    Absent a request to be heard in opposition by the deadline above, 
Illinois Power 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 Illinois Power, 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 Illinois Power's issuances of securities or 
assumptions of liability.
