SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

patent application claims a method by 

which a biologically-natural material 

can be produced in bioreactors and 

transformed for use as a dry solid. The 

resulting biopolymer material can be 

used in place of synthetic, petroleumbased polymers for soil amendment 

applications to achieve increased soil 

strength, reduced air transport, and 

decreased soil erosion. During 

processing, the biopolymer also can be 

functionalized to improve its adsorption 

of heavy metals.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

[OE Docket No. EA–171–C] 

Application To Export Electric Energy; 

Powerex Corp 

AGENCY: Office of Electricity Delivery 

and Energy Reliability, DOE. 

ACTION: Notice of application. 

SUMMARY: Powerex Corp. (Powerex) has 

applied to renew its authority to 

transmit electric energy from the United 

States to Canada pursuant to section 

202(e) of the Federal Power Act (FPA). 

DATES: Comments, protests, or requests 

to intervene must be submitted on or 

before October 4, 2010. 

ADDRESSES: Comments, protests or 

requests to intervene should be 

addressed as follows: Office of 

Electricity Delivery and Energy 

Reliability, Mail Code: OE–20, U.S. 

Department of Energy, 1000 

Independence Avenue, SW., 

Washington, DC 20585–0350 (FAX 202– 

586–8008). 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Christopher Lawrence (Program Office) 

202–586–5260 or Michael Skinker 

(Program Attorney) 202–586–2793. 

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

On February 25, 1998, the DOE issued 

Order No. EA–171 which authorized 

Powerex to transmit electric energy from 

the United States to Canada for a twoyear term as a power marketer using 

existing international transmission 

facilities. DOE renewed the Powerex 

export authorization on February 23, 

2000, for a five-year term in Order No. 

EA–171–A, and again for five years on 

November 18, 2005, in Order No. EA– 

171–B. That Order will expire on 

November 18, 2010. On May 19, 2010, 

Powerex filed an application with DOE 

for renewal of the export authority 

contained in Order No. EA–171–B for an 

additional five-year term. 

The electric energy that Powerex 

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 

Powerex 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. 

Procedural Matters: Any person 

desiring to become a party to these 

proceedings or to be heard by filing 

comments or protests to this application 

should file a petition to intervene, 

comment, or protest at the address 

provided above in accordance with 

§§ 385.211 or 385.214 of the Federal 

Energy Regulatory Commission’s Rules 

of Practice and Procedures (18 CFR 

385.211, 385.214). Fifteen copies of each 

petition and protest should be filed with 

DOE on or before the date listed above. 

Comments on the Powerex 

application to export electric energy to 

Canada should be clearly marked with 

Docket No. EA–171–C. Additional 

copies are to be filed directly with Mike 

MacDougal and Karen McDonald, 

Powerex Corp., 666 Burrard Street, Suite 

1400, Vancouver, British Columbia, 

Canada V6C 2X8 and Deanna E. King, 

Bracewell & Giuliani LLP, 111 Congress 

Avenue, Suite 2300, Austin, Texas 

78701. A final decision will be made on 

this application after the environmental 

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 

will not adversely impact on the 

reliability of the U.S. electric power 

supply system. 

Copies of this application will be 

made available, upon request, for public 

inspection and copying at the address 

provided above, by accessing the
