Any questions regarding this application should be directed to Anne E.

The Vaporizer Reactivation Project is designed to refurbish and reactivate two unused waste heat vaporizers that were originally installed at the Cove Point LNG Terminal in the 1970s. These vaporizers will use combustion exhaust heat from the gas turbine generators to indirectly vaporize LNG. The proposed project will provide spare vaporization capability that will create an opportunity to firm up sendout from the facility, during times when the vaporization facilities would otherwise be limited by normal maintenance requirements. Cove Point LNG says that reactivating these waste heat vaporizers will enable Cove Point LNG to provide up to its current peak-day capability of 1.0 MMDth/day of sendout for which it is currently authorized on a year-round basis, subject only to certain excused interruptions. Cove Point LNG says that the Vaporizer Reactivation Project will not impair the ability of Cove Point LNG to render service at reasonable rates to its existing customers. Cove Point LNG requests that the Commission approve the use of the facilities associated with the Vapor Reactivation Project to support an incremental send-out service (ISQ) for LTD–1 customers under section 4 of the NGA. The terms and conditions of the proposed ISQ service are set forth in pro forma tariff sheets modifying Rate Schedule LTD–1 in Exhibit P to the application. Cove Point LNG is also proposing that an off-peak firm transportation service (OTS) on the Cove Point LNG natural gas pipeline be approved by the Commission under section 4 of the NGA. The terms and conditions of the proposed OTS service are also set forth in pro forma tariff sheets in Exhibit P to the application. Cove Point LNG requests that the Commission grant the requested authorization at the earliest practicable date, in order to ensure an in-service date on the earlier of : (i) the earliest practicable date, or (ii) the later of (a) May 24, 2006, or (b) six months following issuance of the requested authorizations.
