applications, as required by the program

statute are included in the application

package.

The Congress has appropriated a total

of $15,000,000 for HEP and $7,000,000

for CAMP for FY 2000. The increases in

from the United States to Canada

pursuant to section 202(e) of the Federal

Power Act.

DATES: Comments, protests or requests

to intervene must be submitted on or

before February 18, 2000.

ADDRESSES: Comments, protests or

requests to intervene should be

addressed as follows: Office of Coal &

Power Im/Ex (FE–27), Office of Fossil

Energy, U.S. Department of Energy,

1000 Independence Avenue, SW,

Washington, DC 20585–0350 (FAX 202–

287–5736).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Ellen Russell (Program Office) 202–586–

9624 or Michael Skinker (Program

Attorney) 202–586–2793.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On

January 23, 1998, the Office of Fossil

Energy (FE) of the Department of Energy

(DOE) authorized CPS to transmit

electric energy from the United States to

Canada as a power marketer (Order No.

EA–164) using the international electric

transmission facilities owned and

operated by Basin Electric Power

Cooperative, Bonneville Power

Administration, Citizens Utilities,

Detroit Edison, Eastern Maine Electric

Cooperative, Joint Owners of the

Highgate Project, Maine Electric Power

Company, Maine Public Service

Company, Minnesota Power, Minnkota

Power Cooperative, New York Power

Authority, Niagara Mohawk Power

Corp., Northern States Power, and

Vermont Electric Transmission

Company. That authorization will

expire on January 23, 2000.

On January 6, 2000, CPS filed an

application with FE for renewal of the

export authority contained in Order No.

EA–164. CPS has requested that

authorization be issued for a five-year

term and that the international

transmission facilities of Long Sault,

Inc. be added to the list of authorized

export points.

Procedural Matters

Any person desiring to become a

party to this proceeding or to be heard

by filing comments or protests to this

application should file a petition to

intervene, comment or protest at the

address provided above in accordance

with §§ 385.211 or 385.214 of the

Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission’s Rules of Practice and

Procedures (18 CFR 385.211, 385.214).

Fifteen copies of each petition and

protest should be filed with the DOE on

or before the date listed above.

Comments on the CPS request to

export should be clearly marked with

Docket EA–164–A. Additional copies

are to be filed directly with Randall D.

Osteen, Attorney, Constellation Power

Source, Inc., 111 Market Place, Suite

500, Baltimore, MD 21202.

DOE notes that the circumstances

described in this application are

virtually identical to those for which

export authority had previously been

granted in FE Order EA–164.

Consequently, DOE believes that it has

adequately satisfied its responsibilities

under the National Environmental

Policy Act of 1969 through the

documentation of a categorical

exclusion in the FE Docket EA–164

proceeding.

Copies of this application will be

made available, upon request, for public

inspection and copying at the address

provided above or by accessing the

Fossil Energy Home Page at http://

www.fe.doe.gov. Upon reaching the

Fossil Energy Home page, select

‘‘Electricity’’ from the Regulatory Info

menu and then ‘‘Pending Proceedings’’
