Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Model 767-200, -300,
and -300F Series Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain
Model 767-200, -300, and -300F series airplanes. For certain airplanes,
this AD requires installing support hardware and modifying the
interfacing wiring of the fuel quantity indicating system (FQIS)
densitometer. For certain other airplanes, this AD requires replacing
the existing hot short protector (HSP) on the FQIS densitometer with a
new HSP. This AD also requires revising the Airworthiness Limitations
(AWL) section of the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness to
incorporate AWL No. 28-AWL-22. This AD results from fuel system reviews
conducted by the manufacturer. We are issuing this AD to prevent the
center tank fuel densitometer from overheating and becoming a potential
ignition source inside the center fuel tank, which, in combination with
flammable fuel vapors, could result in a center fuel tank explosion and
consequent loss of the airplane.

DATES: This AD is effective May 3, 2010.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of certain publications listed in the AD as of May 3, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 to include an airworthiness directive (AD) that would apply to
certain Model 767-200, -300, and -300F series airplanes. That NPRM was
published in the Federal Register on July 2, 2009 (74 FR 31640). For
certain airplanes, that NPRM proposed to require modifying the fuel
quantity indicating system (FQIS) densitometer. For certain other
airplanes, that NPRM proposed to require replacing the existing hot
short protector (HSP) on the FQIS densitometer with a new HSP. That
NPRM also proposed to require revising the Airworthiness Limitations
(AWL) section of the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness to
incorporate AWL No. 28-AWL-22.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. We considered the comments received.

Support for the NPRM

    Continental Airlines has no technical objection to the NPRM.

Request To Clarify Certain Language

    Boeing asks that we clarify certain language in the Summary section
of the NPRM, and notes that the fuel quantity indicating system (FQIS)
densitometer is not being modified as specified in that section. Boeing
states that the proposed actions are for the installation of
appropriate support hardware and modifications to the densitometer
interfacing wiring to install an HSP, or to replace the HSP in a
limited number of airplanes.
    We agree with the Boeing comment. We specified in the Relevant
Service Information section of the NPRM that the service bulletin
describes procedures for modifying the FQIS densitometer, which include
installing new HSP support brackets and grounding brackets, installing
an HSP and bonding jumper, rerouting certain wire bundles, and
installing new wire bundles. These actions are described in Boeing
Service Bulletin 767-28A0094, Revision 1, dated April 23, 2009
(referred to in the NPRM as the appropriate source of service
information for accomplishing the actions). However, after further
review we have determined that using the phrase ``modifying the FQIS
densitometer'' is too broad. Therefore, for clarification, we have
changed that language in the Summary section and paragraph (f) of this
AD to specify ``installing support hardware and modifying the
interfacing wiring of the FQIS densitometer.''

Clarification of HSP Replacement

    Boeing also states, for information only, that there are no safety-
related concerns regarding use of the existing HSP. Boeing notes that
an operator can choose to replace the existing HSP with a new HSP if it
experiences in-service problems with the HSP. Boeing adds that it plans
to revise Service Bulletin 767-28A0094, Revision 1, dated April 23,
2009, to remove the only airplane in Group 4; the procedures for Group
4 airplanes require replacement of the existing HSP with a new HSP.
    We acknowledge the Boeing comment; no change to the AD is necessary
in this regard.

Request To Extend Compliance Time

    The Air Transport Association (ATA), on behalf of its member
American Airlines (AAL), asks that the compliance time in the NPRM be
extended from 60 to 72 months. ATA states that this would allow
operators to modify the majority of airplanes during scheduled heavy
maintenance visits. ATA adds that the Boeing 767 Maintenance Review
Board document recommends heavy maintenance visits at intervals of 72
months, and carrier maintenance programs, facilities, and resources are
organized to best support maintenance involving fuel tank entry and
sensitive testing at that time. ATA notes that a shorter compliance
time could require establishing dedicated modification lines and impose
additional impact outside of Part 39 rulemaking. ATA believes that an
extension would maintain an acceptable level of safety in view of
previous ADs that addressed the same unsafe condition. AAL further
states that 28-AWL-22 will now require a loop resistance check of the
new wire bundles after installation in order to verify the bonding
requirements are being met. Because of the extreme sensitivity of the
test equipment, AAL believes that this modification should be
accomplished at the same time as the majority of other fuel tank
inspections and modifications, which would be at the heavy check.
    We do not agree with the commenters' request. In developing an
appropriate compliance time for the modification, we considered the
safety implications and the practical aspect of accomplishing the
modification within a period of time that corresponds to the normal
scheduled maintenance for most affected operators. In consideration of
these items, we have determined that a 60-month compliance time will
ensure an acceptable level of safety and allow the modification to be
done during scheduled maintenance intervals for most affected
operators. However, under the provisions of paragraph (k)(1) of the AD,
we will consider requests to adjust the compliance time if sufficient
data are submitted to substantiate that the new compliance time would
provide an acceptable level of safety. We have made no change to the AD
in this regard.

Request To Exclude Cargo-Only Airplanes

    The ATA, on behalf of its member UPS, asks that all cargo-only
airplanes currently in operation be exempt from the NPRM requirements.
ATA adds that these airplanes have significantly less exposure to
flammable conditions in fuel tanks. UPS notes that changing the
maintenance programs to add bonding checks will be sufficient to
address the HSP issue in the existing cargo-only airplanes. UPS states
that it does not object to new cargo-only airplanes having the HSP
installed.
    We do not agree with the commenters' request. The unsafe condition
identified in this AD has been evaluated under the criteria established
for conditions associated with fuel tank systems, as specified in the
``Discussion'' section of the NPRM. We determined that the actions
identified in this AD are necessary to reduce the potential of

ignition sources inside the center wing tank. The center wing tank has
been identified as a high flammability tank under the Special Federal
Aviation Regulation No. 88 (``SFAR 88,'' Amendment 21-78, and
subsequent Amendments 21-82 and 21-83), fuel tank safety assessments,
and the failure type and fuel tank exposure to flammable conditions
were taken into consideration. The type of failure that is addressed in
this AD cannot be mitigated by performing bonding checks. Cargo-only
airplanes having the same design are still subject to the unsafe
condition. We have made no change to the AD in this regard.
    UPS adds that the cost benefit (analysis) does not justify retrofit
on current cargo airplanes.
    We infer that UPS means that the cost benefit (analysis) does not
justify retrofit on current cargo airplanes; we do not agree. The data
in the Costs of Compliance section (below) is limited only to the cost
of actions actually required by the AD. The cost analysis in AD
rulemaking actions does not include the costs of ``on-condition''
actions that are necessary when doing those on-condition actions.
Regardless of AD direction, those actions would be required to correct
an unsafe condition identified in an airplane and ensure operation of
that airplane in an airworthy condition, as required by the Federal
Aviation Regulations. Therefore, we have made no change to the AD in
this regard.

Clarification to Final Rule

    We have revised this final rule to identify the legal name of the
manufacturer as published in the most recent type certificate data
sheet for the affected airplane models.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data, considered the comments received,
and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting
the AD with the changes described previously. We also determined that
these changes will not increase the economic burden on any operator or
increase the scope of the AD.

Explanation of Change to Costs of Compliance

    Since issuance of the NPRM, we have increased the labor rate used
in the Costs of Compliance from $80 per work hour to $85 per work hour.
The Costs of Compliance information, below, reflects this increase in
the specified hourly labor rate.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 192 airplanes of U.S. registry.
The following table provides the estimated costs for U.S. operators to
comply with this AD.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. ``Subtitle VII: Aviation
Programs,'' describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's
authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
``Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    This AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order
13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct effect on the States,
on the relationship between the national government and the States, or
on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various
levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT Regulatory Policies and
Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979), and
    (3) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    You can find our regulatory evaluation and the estimated costs of
compliance in the AD Docket.

    (a) This airworthiness directive (AD) is effective May 3, 2010.

Affected ADs

    (b) None.

Applicability

    (c) This AD applies to The Boeing Company Model 767-200, -300,
and -300F series airplanes, certificated in any category; as
identified in Boeing Service Bulletin 767-28A0094, Revision 1, dated
April 23, 2009.

    Note 1: This AD requires revisions to certain operator
maintenance documents to include new inspections. Compliance with
these inspections is required by 14 CFR 91.403(c). For airplanes
that have been previously modified, altered, or repaired in the
areas addressed by these inspections, the operator may not be able
to accomplish the inspections described in the revisions. In this
situation, to comply with 14 CFR 91.403(c), the operator must
request approval for an alternative method of compliance (AMOC)
according to paragraph (k) of this AD. The request should include a
description of changes to the required inspections that will ensure
the continued operational safety of the airplane.

Unsafe Condition

    (d) This AD results from fuel system reviews conducted by the
manufacturer. We are issuing this AD to prevent the center tank fuel
densitometer from overheating and becoming a potential ignition
source inside the center fuel tank, which, in combination with
flammable fuel vapors, could result in a center fuel tank explosion
and consequent loss of the airplane.

Compliance

    (e) Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified,
unless already done.

Install Support Hardware and Modify Wiring of the Fuel Quantity
Indicating System (FQIS) Densitometer; Replace Hot Short Protector

accordance with Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 767-28A0094, dated
November 20, 2007, are acceptable for compliance with the
requirements of paragraph (f) of this AD.

Airworthiness Limitations (AWL) Revision

    (h) Concurrently with accomplishing the actions required by
paragraph (f) of this AD, revise the AWL section of the Instructions
for Continued Airworthiness by incorporating AWL No. 28-AWL-22 into
the Boeing 767 Maintenance Planning Data (MPD) Document, D622T001-9,
Section 9, Revision May 2009.

No Alternative Critical Design Configuration Control Limitations
(CDCCL)

    (i) After the actions specified in paragraph (h) of this AD have
been accomplished, no alternative CDCCL for AWL No. 28-AWL-22 may be
used, unless the CDCCL is approved as an AMOC in accordance with the
procedures specified in paragraph (k) of this AD.

14 CFR Part 71

[Docket No. FAA-2012-1345; Airspace Docket No. 12-ANM-31]

Proposed Modification of Class D and Class E Airspace and
Establishment of Class E Airspace; Pasco, WA

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This action proposes to establish Class E surface airspace at
Tri-Cities Airport, Pasco, WA. Controlled airspace is necessary to
accommodate aircraft using Area Navigation (RNAV) Global Positioning
System (GPS) standard instrument approach procedures at Tri-Cities
Airport, Pasco, WA. This action also would modify the Class D airspace
and Class E airspace by adjusting the geographic coordinates of Tri-
Cities Airport and Kennewick, Vista Field Airport. This will also
correct the airport name from Vista Airport, Kennewick, WA to
Kennewick, Vista Field Airport, WA. The FAA is proposing this action to
enhance the safety and management of aircraft operations at Tri-Cities
Airport, Pasco, WA.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before May 10, 2013.

ADDRESSES: Send comments on this proposal to the U.S. Department of

procedure.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by establishing Class E surface airspace
at Tri-Cities Airport, Pasco, WA. Controlled airspace is necessary to
accommodate aircraft using RNAV (GPS) standard instrument approach
procedures at Tri-Cities Airport, Pasco, WA. Also, the geographic
coordinates of Tri-Cities Airport and Kennewick, Vista Field Airport
would be updated to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database for
the Class D airspace and Class E airspace designated as an extension to
Class D surface area, and Class E airspace extending upward from 700
feet above the surface, at Pasco, WA. This action would enhance the
safety and management of aircraft operations at Tri-Cities Airport,
Pasco, WA. This will also correct the name from Vista Airport,
Kennewick, WA to Kennewick, Vista Field Airport, WA.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraphs 5000,
6002, 6004 and 6005, respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9W, dated August
8, 2012, and effective September 15, 2012, which is incorporated by
reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D and Class E airspace designations
listed in this document will be published subsequently in this Order.
    The FAA has determined this proposed regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
Therefore, this proposed regulation; (1) Is not a ``significant
regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a
``significant rule'' under DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44
FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a
regulatory evaluation as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since
this is a routine matter that will only affect air traffic procedures
and air navigation, it is certified this proposed rule, when
promulgated, would not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, Section 106, describes
the authority for the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation
Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's authority.
This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section, the
FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of the
airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient
use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority
as it would establish controlled airspace at Tri-Cities Airport, Pasco,
WA.
    This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1E, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies
and Procedures'' prior to any FAA final regulatory action.

14 CFR Part 97

[Docket No. 30686; Amdt. No. 3339]

Standard Instrument Approach Procedures, and Takeoff Minimums and
Obstacle Departure Procedures; Miscellaneous Amendments

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This rule establishes, amends, suspends, or revokes Standard
Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) and associated Takeoff Minimums
and Obstacle Departure Procedures for operations at certain airports.
These regulatory actions are needed because of the adoption of new or
revised criteria, or because of changes occurring in the National
Airspace System, such as the commissioning of new navigational
facilities, adding new obstacles, or changing air traffic requirements.
These changes are designed to provide safe and efficient use of the
navigable airspace and to promote safe flight operations under
instrument flight rules at the affected airports.

DATES: This rule is effective September 24, 2009. The compliance date
for each SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums, and ODP is specified in the
amendatory provisions.
    The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in
the regulations is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as
of September 24, 2009.

ADDRESSES: Availability of matter incorporated by reference in the
amendment is as follows:
    For Examination--
    1. FAA Rules Docket, FAA Headquarters Building, 800 Independence
Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20591;
    2. The FAA Regional Office of the region in which the affected
airport is located;
    3. The National Flight Procedures Office, 6500 South MacArthur
Blvd., Oklahoma City, OK 73169 or,

Takeoff Minimums and ODP copies may be obtained from:
    1.FAA Public Inquiry Center (APA-200), FAA Headquarters Building,
800 Independence Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20591; or
    2.The FAA Regional Office of the region in which the affected
airport is located.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Harry J. Hodges, Flight Procedure
Standards Branch (AFS-420) Flight Technologies and Programs Division,
Flight Standards Service, Federal Aviation Administration, Mike
Monroney Aeronautical Center, 6500 South MacArthur Blvd., Oklahoma
City, OK 73169 (Mail Address: P.O. Box 25082 Oklahoma City, OK 73125)
telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule amends Title 14, Code of Federal
Regulations, Part 97 (14 CFR part 97) by amending the referenced SIAPs.
The complete regulatory description of each SIAP is listed on the
appropriate FAA Form 8260, as modified by the National Flight Data
Center (FDC)/Permanent Notice to Airmen (P-NOTAM), and is incorporated
by reference in the amendment under 5 U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and
Sec.  97.20 of Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations.
    The large number of SIAPs, their complex nature, and the need for a
special format make their verbatim publication in the Federal Register
expensive and impractical. Further, airmen do not use the regulatory
text of the SIAPs, but refer to their graphic depiction on charts
printed by publishers of aeronautical materials. Thus, the advantages
of incorporation by reference are realized and publication of the
complete description of each SIAP contained in FAA form documents is
unnecessary. This amendment provides the affected CFR sections and
specifies the types of SIAP and the corresponding effective dates. This
amendment also identifies the airport and its location, the procedure
and the amendment number.

The Rule

    This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is effective upon publication of
each separate SIAP as amended in the transmittal. For safety and
timeliness of change considerations, this amendment incorporates only
specific changes contained for each SIAP as modified by FDC/P-NOTAMs.
    The SIAPs, as modified by FDC P-NOTAM, and contained in this
amendment are based on the criteria contained in the U.S. Standard for
Terminal Instrument Procedures (TERPS). In developing these changes to
SIAPs, the TERPS criteria were applied only to specific conditions
existing at the affected airports. All SIAP amendments in this rule
have been previously issued by the FAA in a FDC NOTAM as an emergency
action of immediate flight safety relating directly to published
aeronautical charts. The circumstances which created the need for all
these SIAP amendments requires making them effective in less than 30
days.
    Because of the close and immediate relationship between these SIAPs
and safety in air commerce, I find that notice and public procedure
before adopting these SIAPs are impracticable and contrary to the
public interest and, where applicable, that good cause exists for
making these SIAPs effective in less than 30 days.

Conclusion

    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore--(1) is not a

``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866; (2) is
not a ``significant rule'' under DOT regulatory Policies and Procedures
(44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation
of a regulatory evaluation as the anticipated impact is so minimal. For
the same reason, the FAA certifies that this amendment will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

[Docket No. RM98-1-000]

Records Governing Off-the-Record Communications; Public Notice

    This constitutes notice, in accordance with 18 CFR 385.2201(b), of
the receipt of prohibited and exempt off-the-record communications.
    Order No. 607 (64 FR 51222, September 22, 1999) requires Commission
decisional employees, who make or receive a prohibited or exempt off-
the-record communication relevant to the merits of a contested
proceeding, to deliver to the Secretary of the Commission, a copy of
the communication, if written, or a summary of the substance of any
oral communication.
    Prohibited communications are included in a public, non-decisional
file associated with, but not a part of, the decisional record of the
proceeding. Unless the Commission determines that the prohibited
communication and any responses thereto should become a part of the
decisional record, the prohibited off-the-record communication will not
be considered by the Commission in reaching its decision. Parties to a
proceeding may seek the opportunity to respond to any facts or
contentions made in a prohibited off-the-record communication and may
request that the Commission place the prohibited communication and
responses thereto in the decisional record. The Commission will grant
such a request only when it determines that fairness so requires. Any
person identified below as having made a prohibited off-the-record
communication shall serve the document on all parties listed on the
official service list for the applicable proceeding in accordance with
Rule 2010, 18 CFR 385.2010.
    Exempt off-the-record communications are included in the decisional
record of the proceeding, unless the communication was with a
cooperating agency as described by 40 CFR 1501.6, made under 18 CFR
385.2201(e)(1)(v).
    The following is a list of off-the-record communications recently
received by the Secretary of the Commission. The communications listed
are grouped by docket numbers in ascending order. In addition to
publishing the full text of this document in the Federal Register, the
Commission provides all interested persons an opportunity to view and/
or print the contents of this document via the internet through the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The U.S. Army Rock Island Arsenal requested

Drawbridge, across the Upper Mississippi River, mile 482.9, at Rock
Island, Illinois to remain in the closed-to-navigation position for a
two hour period from 10 a.m. to noon, March 15, 2014, while the St.

    The Rock Island Railroad and Highway Drawbridge currently operates
in accordance with 33 CFR 117.5, which states the general requirement
that drawbridges shall open promptly and fully for the passage of
vessels when a request to open is given in accordance with the subpart.
    There are no alternate routes for vessels transiting this section

normal pool. Navigation on the waterway consists primarily of
commercial tows and recreational watercraft. This temporary deviation
has been coordinated with waterway users. No objections were received.
    In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e), the drawbridge must return to
its regular operating schedule immediately at the end of the effective
period of this temporary deviation. This deviation from the operating
regulations is authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.

[Docket No. CP10-485-000]

Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company; Notice of Application

August 24, 2010.
    On August 12, 2010, Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company (Tennessee)
filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) an
application under section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act and section 157
of the Commission's Regulations for authority to abandon ownership
interest in certain Texas onshore and offshore supply facilities as
well as its dedicated capacity in the Central Texas Gathering System,
all as more fully detailed in the Application.
    Questions concerning this application may be directed to Thomas G.
Joyce, Manager, Certificates, Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company, 1001
Louisiana Street, Houston, Texas 77002 or by calling<PHONE_NUMBER>, by
faxing<PHONE_NUMBER>, or by e-mailing<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or Susan T.
Halbach, Senior Counsel, Legal, Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company, 1001
Louisiana Street, Houston, Texas 77002, or by calling<PHONE_NUMBER>, by
faxing<PHONE_NUMBER>, or by e-mailing<EMAIL_ADDRESS>    Pursuant to section 157.9 of the Commission's rules, 18 CFR 157.9,
within 90 days of this Notice the Commission staff will either:
Complete its environmental assessment (EA) and place it into the
Commission's public record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or issue a
Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of Schedule
for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's issuance of
the final environmental impact statement (FEIS) or EA for this
proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission's public record for
this proceeding or the issuance of a Notice of Schedule for
Environmental Review will serve to notify federal and state agencies of
the timing for the completion of all necessary reviews, and the
subsequent need to complete all federal authorizations within 90 days
of the date of issuance of the Commission staff's FEIS or EA.
    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or
before the comment date stated below, file with the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, a
motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or
385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must
submit seven copies of filings made with the Commission and must mail a
copy to the applicant and to every other party in the proceeding. Only
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders
in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project.
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly
involved in the protest.
    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 seven 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''
link on the Web site that enables subscribers to receive e-mail
notification when a document is added to a subscribed docket(s). For
assistance with any FERC Online service, please e-mail

Secretary.
