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

On February 6, 1996, the Office of

Fossil Energy (FE) of the Department of

Energy (DOE) authorized Enron, a

power marketer, to transmit electric

energy from the United States to

Mexico. The term of the authorization

was for a period of two years. On

December 5, 1997, Enron filed an

application with FE for renewal of this

1998.

The exported energy would be

delivered to Mexico over transmission

facilities owned by San Diego Gas &

Electric Company, The El Paso Electric

Company, Central Power and Light

Company, and Comission Federal de

Electricidad, the national electric utility

of Mexico. Each of the transmission

facilities, as more fully described in the

application, has previously been

authorized by a Presidential permit

issued pursuant to Executive order

10485, as amended.
