facilities nor does it hold a franchised service area.
    The electric energy that CLT proposes to export to Canada 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 CLT 
have previously been authorized by Presidential permits issued pursuant 
to
