    Take notice that on July 2, 2009, the City of Orangeburg, South

207(a)(5) of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) 
Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.207(a)(5), filed a petition 
for declaratory requesting that the Commission exempt the Orangeburg 
Department of Public Utilities and other affected electric facilities 
from the policy and practice announced by the North Carolina Utilities 
Commission (NCUC) in its March 30, 2009 Order E-7, Sub 858 (NCUC 
Order). The City of Orangeburg also seeks a petition for declaratory 
order stating that the policy announced in the NCUC Order is preempted 
by the Commission's exclusive jurisdiction over wholesale power sales,

the Federal Power Act, 16 U.S.C. 824(a), 824(b), 824d, and 824e.

considered by the Commission in determining the appropriate action to 
be taken, but will not serve to make protestants parties to the 
proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party must file a notice of 
intervention or motion to intervene, as appropriate. Such notices, 
motions, or protests must be filed on or before the comment date. On or 
before the comment date, it is not necessary to serve motions to
