TransEnergie U.S., Ltd.; Notice of Issuance of Order

June 5, 2000.
    On October 1, 1999, TransEnergie U.S., Ltd. (TransEnergie) filed 
with the Commission a petition for an order accepting a tariff offering 
non-discriminatory transmission service over a 26-mile undersea high-
voltage, bi-directional, direct current cable it proposes to build 
underneath the Long Island Sound. TransEnergie also requested certain 
waivers and authorizations. In particular, TransEnergie requested that 
the Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR Part 34 of all 
future issuances of securities and assumptions of liabilities by the 
TransEnergie. On June 1, 2000, the Commission issued an Order Approving 
Proposal Subject To Conditions (Order), in the above-docketed 
proceedings.
    The Commission's June 1, 2000 Order granted TransEnergie's request 
for blanket approval under Part 34, subject to the conditions found in 
Ordering Paragraphs (C), (D), and (E):
    (C) Within 30 days of the date of this order, any person desiring 
to be heard or to protest the Commission's blanket approval of 
issuances of securities or assumptions of liabilities by TransEnergie 
should file a motion to intervene or protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426, 
in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of 
Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.211 and 385.214.
    (D) Absent a request to be heard within the period set forth in 
Ordering Paragraph (C) above, TransEnergie is hereby authorized to 
issue securities and assume obligations and liabilities as guarantor, 
indorser, surety or otherwise in respect of any security of another 
person; provided that such issue or assumption is for some lawful 
object within the corporate purposes of TransEnergie, compatible with 
the public interest, and reasonably necessary or appropriate for such 
purposes.
    (E) The Commission reserves the right to modify this order to 
require a further showing that neither public nor private interests 
will be adversely affected by continued Commission approval of 
TransEnergie's issuances of securities or assumptions of liabilities * 
* *.
    Notice is hereby given that the deadline for filing motions to 
intervene or protests, as set forth above, is July 3, 2000.
