Sleeping Bear, LLC; Notice of Issuance of Order

April 18, 2007.
    Sleeeping Bear, LLC (Sleeping Bear) 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. Sleeping Bear also requested 
waivers of various Commission regulations. In particular, Sleeping Bear 
requested that the Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR Part 
34 of all future issuances of securities and assumptions of liability 
by Sleeping Bear.
    On April 17, 2007, 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 concerning the blanket 
approvals of issuances of securities or assumptions of liability by 
Sleeping Bear should file a 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 protests is May 
17, 2007.
    Absent a request to be heard in opposition to such blanket 
approvals by the deadline above, Sleeping Bear 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 Sleeping Bear, 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 Sleeping Bear's issuance 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
