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 Federal Power Act (16 U.S.C. 

824a(e)). 

On April 3, 2015, DOE received an 

application from CWP Energy for 

authority to transmit electric energy 

from the United States to Canada as a 

power marketer for five years using 

existing international transmission 

facilities. 

In its application, CWP Energy states 

that it does not own or control any 

electric generation or transmission 

facilities, and it does not have a 

franchised service area. The electric 

energy that CWP Energy proposes to 

export to Canada would be surplus 

energy purchased from third parties 

such as power marketers, independent 

power producers, electric utilities, and 

Federal power marketing agencies 

pursuant to voluntary agreements. The 

existing international transmission 

facilities to be utilized by CWP Energy 

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.

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 

Energy Regulatory Commission’s (FERC)

impacts have been evaluated pursuant 

to DOE’s National Environmental Policy 

Act Implementing Procedures (10 CFR 

part 1021) and after a determination is 

made by DOE that the proposed action
