authorization under section 202(e) of
the Federal Power Act (16 U.S.C.

On May 5, 2008, DOE issued Order
No. EA–338, which authorized Shell
Energy to transmit electric energy from
the United States to Mexico as a power
marketer for a five-year term using
existing international transmission
facilities. That authority expires on May

contained in Order No. EA–338 for an
additional five-year term.
In its application, Shell Energy states
that it does not own any electric
generating or transmission facilities nor
does the applicant have a franchised
service area. The electric energy that
Shell Energy proposes to export to
Mexico would be surplus energy
purchased from electric utilities,
Federal power marketing agencies, and
other entities within the United States.
The existing international transmission
facilities to be utilized by Shell Energy
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.
Procedural Matters: Any person
desiring to be heard in this proceeding
should file a comment or protest to the
