U.S. Bank National Association and James A. Goodman; Notice of 
Issuance of Order

June 14, 2006.
    U.S. Bank National Association and James A. Goodman (the Receiver) 
filed an application for market-based rate authority, with an 
accompanying tariff. The proposed market-based rate tariff provides for 
the sale of energy, capacity and ancillary services at market-based 
rates. The Receiver also requested waiver of various Commission 
regulations. In particular, the Receiver requested that the Commission 
grant blanket approval under 18 CFR part 34 of all future issuances of 
securities and assumptions of liability by the Receiver.

    On June 12, 2006, pursuant to delegated authority, the Director, 
Division of Tariffs and Market Development--West, 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 the 
Receiver 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 July 12, 2006.
    Absent a request to be heard in opposition by the deadline above, 
the Receiver 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 the Receiver, 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 the Receiver's issuances of securities or 
assumptions of liability.
    Copies of the full text of the Director's Order are available from 
the Commission's Public Reference Room, 888 First Street, NE., 
Washington, DC 20426. The Order may also be viewed on the Commission's
