by Mirant Las Vegas.
    On December 17, 2002, pursuant to delegated authority, the 
Director, Division of Tariffs and Market Development--South, granted 
the requests for blanket approval under Part 34. The Director's order

Mirant Las Vegas is authorized to issue securities and assume 
obligations or liabilities as a guarantor, indorser, surety, or

such issuance or assumption is for some lawful object within the 
corporate purposes of Mirant Las Vegas, compatible with the public 
interest, and is reasonably necessary or appropriate for such purposes.

neither public nor private interests will be adversely affected by
