Public Utilities Commission of the State of California; Notice of
Petition for Declaratory Order

May 7, 2010.
    Take notice that on May 4, 2010, pursuant to Rule 207 of the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission) Rules of Practice
and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.207, the Public Utilities Commission of the
State of California (CPUC) filed a petition for declaratory order,
requesting the Commission to find that the decisions, which promote
Combined Heat and Power systems (i.e., cogeneration) of 20 megawatts or
less, are not preempted by the Federal Power Act (FPA), 16 U.S.C. 824,
et seq., Public Utilities Regulatory Policies Act (PURPA), 16 U.S.C.
824-a-1, et seq., or Commission regulations. The CPUC also requests
exemption from paying filing fees, pursuant to Rule 207(c) of the
Commission Rules, 18 CFR 385.207(c), and 18 CFR 381.108(a).
    Any person desiring to intervene or to protest this filing must
file in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of
Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211, 385.214). Protests will be
considered by the Commission in determining the appropriate action to
be taken, but will not serve to make protestants parties to the
proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party must file a notice of
intervention or motion to intervene, as appropriate. Such notices,
motions, or protests must be filed on or before the comment date. On or
before the comment date, it is not necessary to serve motions to
intervene or protests on persons other than the Applicant.
    The Commission encourages electronic submission of protests and
interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link at http://
www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should submit an
original and 14 copies of the protest or intervention to the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC
20426.
    This filing is accessible on-line at http://www.ferc.gov, using the
``eLibrary'' link and is available for review in the Commission's
