FirstEnergy Nuclear Generation; Notice of Issuance of Order

October 5, 2005.

    FirstEnergy Nuclear Generation (Nuclear Genco) filed an application 
for market-based rate authority, with an accompanying rate tariff. The 
proposed rate tariff provides for the sales of energy, capacity and the 
reassignment of transmission capacity. Nuclear Genco also requested 
waiver of various Commission regulations. In particular, Nuclear Genco 
requested that the Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR part 
34 of all future issuances of securities and assumptions of liability 
by Nuclear Genco.
    On September 29, 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 Nuclear Genco 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, 
Nuclear Genco 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 Nuclear Genco, 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 Nuclear Genco's issuances of securities or 
assumptions of liability.
    Copies of the full text of the Director's Order are available from
