SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Exports of

sections 301(b) and 402(f) of the 

Department of Energy Organization Act 

(42 U.S.C. 7151(b), 7172(f)) and require

On August 30, 2010, DOE received an

power marketer using existing

The electric energy that EDF 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 EDF 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.
