Project Orange Associates, LLC; Notice of Issuance of Order

April 24, 2007.
    Project Orange Associates, LLC (Project Orange) filed an 
application for market-based rate authority, with an accompanying rate 
schedule. The proposed market-based rate schedule provides for the sale 
of energy, capacity and ancillary services at market-based rates. 
Project Orange also requested waivers of various Commission 
regulations. In particular, Project Orange requested that the 
Commission grant blanket approval under 18 CFR part 34 of all future 
issuances of securities and assumptions of liability by Project Orange.
    On April 24, 2007, pursuant to delegated authority, the Director, 
Division of Tariffs and Market Development--West, granted the requests 
for blanket approval under part 34 (Director's Order). 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 Project Orange 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 
24, 2007.
    Absent a request to be heard in opposition to such blanket 
approvals by the deadline above, Project Orange 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 Project Orange, 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 Project Orange's issuance of securities or 
assumptions of liability.
