ProMark would arrange for the

exported energy to be transmitted to

Canada over the international facilities

owned by Citizens Utilities, Detroit

Edison Company, Eastern Maine

Electric Cooperative, Joint Owners of

the Highgate Project, Maine Electric

Power Company, Maine Public Service

Company, New York Power Authority,

facilities, as more fully described in

authorized by a Presidential permit

issued pursuant to Executive Order

10485, as amended.

ANR states that the above-referenced

transportation customers to collect

costs, and an adjustment to the

maximum base tariff rates of Rate

Schedule ITS and overrun rates

applicable to Rate Schedule FTS–2, so
