Phase 1 would consist of approximately four miles of 42-inch pipeline looping in Pennsylvania as well as modifications to Compressor Station No. 195 and modifications to various other existing valve settings and meter stations in Pennsylvania. The phase 1 facilities would provide 40,000 dekatherms per day for a proposed inservice date of November 1, 2008. The Phase 2 facilities would consist of about seven miles of 42-inch pipeline replacement in Pennsylvania and a total of about 7 miles of 42-inch pipeline looping in Pennsylvania and New Jersey as well as modifications to Compressor Station No. 200 and various existing meter stations in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Phase 2 would provide 102,000 dekatherms per day for a proposed inservice date of November 1, 2009.

On August 4, 2006, the Commission staff granted Transco’s request to utilize the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Pre-Filing Process and assigned Docket No. PF06–32–000 to staff activities involving the project. Now, as of the filing of this application on December 3, 2007, the NEPA Pre-Filing Process for this project has ended. From this time forward, this proceeding will be conducted in Docket No. CP08–31– 000, as noted in the caption of this notice.

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 PO 00000 Frm 00033 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 federal authorizations within 90 days of the date of issuance of the Commission staff’s FEIS or EA.

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. Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of this project should submit an original and two copies of their comments to the Secretary of the Commission. Environmental commenters will be placed on the Commission’s environmental mailing list, will receive copies of the environmental documents, and will be notified of meetings associated with the Commission’s environmental review process. Environmental commenters will not be required to serve copies of filed documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commenters will not receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or issued by the Commission (except for the mailing of environmental documents issued by the Commission) and will not have the right to seek court review of the Commission’s final order.

    On August 4, 2006, the Commission staff granted Transco's request 
to utilize the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Pre-Filing 
Process and assigned Docket No. PF06-32-000 to staff activities 
involving the project. Now, as of the filing of this application on 
December 3, 2007, the NEPA Pre-Filing Process for this project has 
ended. From this time forward, this proceeding will be conducted in 
Docket No. CP08-31-000, as noted in the caption of this notice.
    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

Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of Schedule 
for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among other

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

the timing for the completion of all necessary reviews, and the 
subsequent need to complete all federal authorizations within 90 days

intervention or motion to intervene, as appropriate. Such notices, 
motions, or protests must be file on or before the comment date. Anyone 
filing a motion to intervene or protest must serve a copy of that

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.
