Order

July 21, 2005.
    Central Vermont Public Service Corporation (Central Vermont) filed 
an application for market-based rate authority, with an accompanying 
rate tariff. The proposed rate tariff provides for the sales of 
capacity and energy at market-based rates. Central Vermont also 
requested waiver of various Commission regulations. In particular, 
Central Vermont requested that the Commission grant blanket approval 
under 18 CFR part 34 of all future issuances of securities and 
assumptions of liability by Central Vermont.
    On July 20, 2005, pursuant to delegated authority, the Director, 
Division of Tariffs and Market Development--South, granted the request 
for blanket approval under part 34. The Director's order also stated 
that the Commission would publish a separate notice in the Federal 
Register establishing a period of time for the filing of protests. 
Accordingly, any person desiring to be heard or to protest the blanket 
approval of issuances of securities or assumptions of liability by 
Central Vermont should file a motion to intervene or protest with the

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 August 19, 2005. Absent a request to be heard 
in opposition by the deadline above, Central Vermont 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 
Central Vermont, 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 Central Vermont issuances of securities or 
assumptions of liability.
