DC Energy Texas, LLC; DC Energy California, LLC; Notice of 
Issuance of Order

April 22, 2008.
    DC Energy Texas, LLC (DC Texas) and DC Energy California, LLC (DC 
California) filed applications for market-based rate authority, with 
accompanying rate schedules. The proposed market-based rate schedules 
provide for the sale of energy, capacity and ancillary services at 
market-based rates. DC Texas and DC California also requested waivers 
of various Commission regulations. In particular, DC Texas and DC 
California requested that the Commission grant blanket approval under 
18 CFR Part 34 of all future issuances of securities and assumptions of 
liability by DC Texas and DC California.
    On April 22, 2008, pursuant to delegated authority, the Director, 
Division of Tariffs and Market Development-West, granted the request 
for blanket approval under Part 34 (Director's Order). The Director's 
Order also stated that the Commission would publish a separate notice 
in the Federal Register establishing a period of time for the filing of 
protests. Accordingly, any person desiring to be heard concerning the 
blanket approvals of issuances of securities or assumptions of 
liability by DC Texas and DC California, should file a protest with the 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., 
Washington, DC 20426, in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure. 18 CFR 385.211, 385.214 
(2007). The Commission encourages the electronic submission of protests 
using the FERC Online link at http://www.ferc.gov.
    Notice is hereby given that the deadline for filing protests is May 
22, 2008.
    Absent a request to be heard in opposition to such blanket 
approvals by the deadline above, DC Texas and DC California are 
authorized to issue securities and assume obligations or liabilities as 
a guarantor, indorser, 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 DC Texas and DC 
California, 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 approvals of DC Texas' and DC California's issuance of 
securities or assumptions of liability.
    Copies of the full text of the Director's Order are available from 
the Commission's Public Reference Room, 888 First Street, NE., 
Washington, DC 20426. The Order may also be viewed on the Commission's
