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 FPA (16 U.S.C. 824a(e)). 

On July 23, 1998, DOE issued Order 

No. EA–184, authorizing MSCG to 

transmit electric energy from the United 

States to Mexico as a power marketer for 

a two-year term using existing 

international transmission facilities. 

That Order expired on July 23, 2000. 

DOE renewed the MSCG export 

authorization on June 28, 2006 in Order 

No. EA–184–A. That Order expired on 

June 28, 2011. On June 20, 2011 MSCG 

filed an application with DOE to renew 

the export authority contained in Order 

No. EA–184–A for a five-year term. 

The electric energy that MSCG 

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 

MSCG 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. 

Procedural Matters: Any person 

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

above address in accordance with FERC 

Rule 214 (385.214). Fifteen copies of

Environmental Policy Act Implementing 

Procedures (10 CFR part 1021) and a 

determination is made by DOE that the
