On December 20, 1994 and February

(WPS) submitted for filing a rate

schedule under which WPS will engage

in wholesale electric power and energy

transactions as a marketer. WPS also

requested waiver of various Commission

regulations. In particular, WPS

requested that the Commission grant

blanket approval under 18 CFR Part 34

of all future issuances of securities and

assumptions of liability by WPS.

On March 16, 1995, pursuant to

delegated authority, the Director,

Division of Applications, Office of

Electric Power Regulation, granted

requests for blanket approval under Part

34, subject to the following:

Within thirty days of the date of the

order, any person desiring to be heard

or to protest the blanket approval of

issuances of securities or assumptions of

liability by WPS should file a motion to

intervene or protest with the Federal

Energy Regulatory Commission, 825

D.C. 20426, in accordance with Rules

211 and 214 of the Commission’s Rules

of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR

Absent a request for hearing within

this period, WPS is authorized to issue

securities and assume obligations or

liabilities as a guarantor, endorser,

surety, or otherwise in respect of any

security of another person; provided

that such issuance or assumption is for

some lawful object within the corporate

purposes of the applicant, and

compatible with the public interest, and

is reasonably necessary or appropriate

for such purposes.

The Commission reserves the right to

require a further showing that neither

public nor private interests will be

adversely affected by continued

approval of WPS’s issuances of

securities or assumption of liability.

Notice is hereby given that the

deadline for filing motions to intervene

or protests, as set forth above, is April

17, 1995.
