June 11, 2002.
    Cogen Technologies NJ Venture (Cogen NJ) filed an application to 
sell energy in wholesale transactions at negotiated, market-based 
rates. Cogen NJ also requested waiver of various Commission 
regulations. In particular, Cogen NJ requested that the Commission 
grant blanket approval under 18 CFR part 34 of all future issuances of 
securities and assumptions of liability by Cogen NJ.
    On May 24, 2002, pursuant to delegated authority, the Director, 
Office of Markets, Tariffs and Rates-East, granted requests for blanket 
approval under Part 34, subject to the following:
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest the blanket approval 
of issuances of securities or assumptions of liability by Cogen NJ 
should file a motion to intervene or protest with the Federal Energy

accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of Practice 
and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 and 385.214).
    Absent a request to be heard in opposition within this period, 
Cogen NJ 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 
Cogen NJ, 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 Cogen NJ's issuances of securities or assumptions 
of liability.
