CornerStone Energy General Partners, LLC; Notice of Issuance of 
Order

October 5, 2005.

    CornerStone Energy General Partners, LLC (CornerStone) 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 and the re-sale of firm transmission 
rights. CornerStone also requested waiver of various Commission 
regulations. In particular, CornerStone requested that the Commission 
grant blanket approval under 18 CFR part 34 of all future issuances of 
securities and assumptions of liability by CornerStone.
    On September 30, 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 CornerStone 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 protests is October 31, 2005.
    Absent a request to be heard in opposition by the deadline above, 
CornerStone 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 
CornerStone, 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 CornerStone's issuances of securities or 
assumptions of liability.
    Copies of the full text of the Director's Order are available from
