December 27, 2007.

Ocean State Power and Ocean State

Power II (collectively, Ocean State) filed

an application for market-based rate

requested waivers of various

Commission regulations. In particular,

Ocean State requested that the

Commission grant blanket approval

under 18 CFR Part 34 of all future

issuances of securities and assumptions

of liability by Ocean State.

On December 18, 2007, pursuant to

delegated authority, the Director,

Division of Tariffs and Market

Development-West, granted the requests

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

Ocean State, should file a protest with

with Rules 211 and 214 of the

Commission’s Rules of Practice and

Procedure. 18 CFR 385.211, 385.214

(2004).

Notice is hereby given that the

deadline for filing protests is January 18,

2008.

Absent a request to be heard in

opposition to such blanket approvals by

the deadline above, Ocean State is

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 Ocean

State, 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 Ocean State’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
