Allegheny Ridge Wind Farm, LLC; Notice of Issuance of Order

October 13, 2006.
    Allegheny Ridge Wind Farm, LLC (Allegheny Wind) filed an 
application for market-based rate authority, with an accompanying rate 
tariff. The proposed market-based rate tariff provides for the sale of 
energy, capacity and ancillary services at market-based rates. 
Allegheny Wind also requested waivers of various Commission 
regulations. In particular, Allegheny Wind requested that the 
Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR Part 34 of all future 
issuances of securities and assumptions of liability by Allegheny Wind.
    On September 21, 2006, pursuant to delegated authority, the 
Director, Division of Tariffs and Market Development--West, granted the 
requests 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 approvals of issuances of securities or assumptions of 
liability by Allegheny Wind 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 November 13, 2006.
    Absent a request to be heard in opposition by the deadline above, 
Allegheny Wind 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 Allegheny Wind, 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 approvals of Allegheny Wind's issuance of securities or 
assumptions of liability.
