Applicant) has applied for authority to transmit electric energy from 
the United States to Mexico pursuant to the Federal Power Act.

DATES: Comments, protests, or motions to intervene must be submitted on 
or before October 19, 2018.

ADDRESSES: Comments, protests, motions to intervene, or requests for 
more information should be addressed to: Office of Electricity, Mail 
Code: OE-20, U.S. Department of Energy, 1000 Independence Avenue SW, 
Washington, DC 20585-0350. Because of delays in handling conventional

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Exports of electricity from the United 
States to a foreign country are regulated by the United States 
Department of Energy (DOE) pursuant to sections 301(b) and 402(f) of 
the Department of Energy Organization Act (42 U.S.C. 7151(b) and 
7172(f)) and require authorization under section 202(e) of the Federal 
Power Act (16 U.S.C. 824a(e)).
    On September 10, 2018, DOE received an application from Saavi 
Energy Solutions for authority to transmit electric energy from the 
United States to Mexico as a power marketer for a five-year term using 
existing international transmission facilities.
    In its application, Saavi Energy Solutions states that it ``does 
not own any electric generation or transmission facilities and . . . 
does not hold a franchise or service territory or native load 
obligation.'' The electric energy that Saavi Energy Solutions proposes 
to export to Mexico would be surplus energy purchased from third 
parties such as electric utilities and Federal power marketing agencies 
pursuant to voluntary agreements. The existing international 
transmission facilities to be utilized by the Applicant have previously 
been authorized by Presidential permits issued pursuant to Executive 
Order No. 10,485, as amended by Executive Order No. 12,038, 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 application at the 
address provided above. Protests should be filed in accordance with 
Rule 211 of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (FERC's) Rules 
of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211). Any person desiring to 
become a party to these proceedings should file a motion to intervene 
at the above address in accordance with FERC Rule 214 (18 CFR 385.214). 
Five (5) copies of such comments, protests, or motions to intervene 
should be sent to the address provided above on or before the date 
listed above.
    Comments and other filings concerning Saavi Energy Solutions' 
application to export electric energy to Mexico should be clearly 
marked with OE Docket No. EA-461. An additional copy is to be provided 
to both Esmeralda Viramontes Mayorga, Saavi Energy Solutions, LLC,

Street NW, Suite 900, Washington, DC 20036.
    A final decision will be made on this application after the 
environmental impacts have been evaluated pursuant to DOE's National 
Environmental Policy Act Implementing Procedures (10 CFR part 1021) and 
after a determination is made by DOE that the proposed action will not 
have an adverse impact on the sufficiency of supply or reliability of 
the U.S. electric power supply system.
