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.

On August 17, 2017, DOE received an 

application from the Applicant for 

authority to transmit electric energy 

from the United States to Mexico as a 

power marketer for a five-year term 

using existing international 

transmission facilities. 

In its application, the Applicant 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 the Applicant proposes to 

export to Mexico would be surplus 

energy purchased from third parties 

such as electric utilities and Federal 

power marketing agencies pursuant to 

voluntary agreements. The existing 

international transmission facilities to 

be utilized by the Applicant 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

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 have an adverse impact on the 

sufficiency of supply or reliability of the 

U.S. electric power supply system.
