Application to Export Electric Energy; 

Hunt Electric Power Marketing, L.L.C. 

AGENCY: Office of Electricity Delivery 

and Energy Reliability, DOE. 

ACTION: Notice of application. 

SUMMARY: Hunt Electric Power 

Marketing, L.L.C. (HEPM) has applied to 

renew its authority to transmit electric 

energy from the United States to Mexico 

pursuant to section 202(e) of the Federal 

Power Act. 

DATES: Comments, protests, or motions 

to intervene must be submitted on or 

before June 5, 2014. 

ADDRESSES: Comments, protests, 

motions to intervene, or requests for 

more information should be addressed 

to: Office of Electricity Delivery and 

Energy Reliability, Mail Code: OE–20, 

U.S. Department of Energy, 1000 

Independence Avenue SW., 

Washington, DC 20585–0350. Because 

of delays in handling conventional mail, 

it is recommended that documents be 

transmitted by overnight mail, by 

electronic mail to Electricity.Exports@

hq.doe.gov, or by facsimile to 202–586– 

8008. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Exports of 

electricity from the United States to a 

foreign country are regulated by the 

Department of Energy (DOE) pursuant to 

sections 301(b) and 402(f) of the 

Department of Energy Organization Act 

(42 U.S.C. 7151(b), 7172(f)) and require 

authorization under section 202(e) of 

the Federal Power Act (16 U.S.C. 

824a(e)). 

On August 31, 2009, DOE issued 

Order No. EA–357, which authorized 

HEPM to transmit electric energy from 

the United States to Mexico as a power 

marketer for a five-year term using 

existing international transmission 

facilities. That authority expires on 

August 31, 2014. On April 14, 2014, 

HEPM filed an application with DOE for 

renewal of the export authority 

contained in Order No. EA–357 for an 

additional five-year term. 

In its application, HEPM states that it 

does not own any electric generating or 

transmission facilities, and it does not 

have a franchised service area. The 

electric energy that HEPM proposes to 

export to Mexico would be surplus 

energy purchased from electric utilities, 

Federal power marketing agencies, and 

other entities within the United States. 

The existing international transmission 

facilities to be utilized by HEPM have 

previously been authorized by 

Presidential permits issued pursuant to 

Executive Order 10485, as amended, 

and are appropriate for open access 

transmission by third parties.
