DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

[OE Docket No. EA–336–A] 

Application To Export Electric Energy; 

ConocoPhillips Company 

AGENCY: Office of Electricity Delivery 

and Energy Reliability, DOE. 

ACTION: Notice of Application. 

SUMMARY: ConocoPhillips Company 

(CoP) 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 March 21, 2013. 

ADDRESSES: Comments, protests, or 

motions to intervene should be 

addressed to: Lamont Jackson, 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 

Lamont.Jackson@hq.doe.gov, or by 

facsimile to 202–586–8008. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Lamont Jackson (Program Office) at 

202–586–0808, or by email to 

Lamont.Jackson@hq.doe.gov. 

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 April 17, 2008, DOE issued Order 

No. EA–336, which authorized CoP 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 April 17, 

2013. On November 29, 2012, CoP filed 

an application with DOE for renewal of 

the export authority contained in Order 

No. EA–336 for an additional five-year 

term. 

In its application, CoP states that 

neither it nor any of its affiliates 

currently own or control electric 

generating or transmission facilities 

except for those facilities necessary to 

connect generation facilities to the 

transmission grid. CoP states that all of 

the electric energy that CoP proposes to 

export to Mexico will be surplus to the 

needs of the selling entities. The 

existing international transmission 

facilities to be utilized by CoP 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.

desiring to be heard in this proceeding 

should file a comment or protest to the 

application at the address provided 

above. Protests should be filed in 

accordance with Rule 211 of the Federal 

Energy Regulatory Commission’s (FERC) 

Rules of Practice and Procedures (18

McFaden and Charles F. Eisenhardt,

final decision will be made on this 

application after the environmental 

impacts have been evaluated pursuant 

to DOE’s National Environmental Policy 

Act Implementing Procedures (10 CFR 

part 1021) and after a determination is 

made by DOE that the proposed action 

will not have an adverse impact on the 

sufficiency of supply or reliability of the 

U.S. electric power supply system.
