[Docket No. EL10-64-000]


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 
Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. There is an ``eSubscription''
