## Abstract

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) is issuing an order addressing requests for rehearing of Order No. 642, a final rule updating the filing requirements applications filed under the Commission's regulations. (65 FR 70984 (Nov. 28, 2000).) Order No. 642 was designed to implement the Commission's Policy Statement concerning mergers under the Federal Power Act. The final rule codified the Commission's screening approach to mergers that may raise horizontal competitive concerns, provided specific filing requirements consistent with Appendix A of the Commission's Merger Policy Statement, established guidelines for vertical competitive analysis, and identified filing requirements for mergers that potentially raise vertical market power concerns. The order on rehearing addresses issues relating to the Merger Policy Statement, the abbreviated filing requirements, adequacy of data requirements, consideration of retail competitive effects, generic conditions for mergers, a temporary moratorium on mergers and other miscellaneous issues.
