CP08–61–000, a prior notice request
pursuant to sections 157.205, 157.210,
and 157.216 of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission’s regulations
under the Natural Gas Act for
authorization to relocate an existing
interconnect with Enbridge Pipeline
(East Texas) L.P. (Enbridge), located in
Hardin County, Texas, and increase the
certificated capacity of Trunkline’s
North Texas transmission system by 40
MMcf/d, all as more fully set forth in
the application, which is on file with
the Commission and open to public

Specifically, Trunkline proposes to
relocate the Enbridge Pipeline (East
Texas) L.P. Meter Station from its
current location at Trunkline’s existing
Kountze Compressor Station, located in
Kountze, Hardin County, Texas, to a
new location near Silsbee, Hardin
County, Texas. Trunkline states that the
relocation will increase the certificated
capacity of Trunkline’s North Texas
transmission system expansion facilities
by 40 MMcf/d. Trunkline asserts that
the increase in capacity will benefit
Trunkline’s shippers. Trunkline
declares that it will be able to receive,
and, at the same time, Enbridge will be
able to increase the volumes of natural
gas being delivered to Trunkline for
further transportation to natural gas
markets. Trunkline proposes to relocate
the Enbridge facilities located at the
Kountze Compressor Station
approximately 15 miles east and install
and own two 12-inch hot tap assemblies
on existing 24-inch Lines 100–1 and
100–2, and install a 16-inch above-grade
valve that will function as the
overpressure protection device and
RTU. Trunkline estimates the cost to
relocate the meter station to be
$983,040.

inconsistent with the requirements of
the Act. Unless EPA or the Department
of Justice determines, based on any
comment which may be submitted, that
consent to the settlement agreement
should be withdrawn, the terms of the
agreement will be affirmed.

system, select ‘‘search,’’ then key in the
appropriate docket identification
number.
It is important to note that EPA’s
policy is that public comments, whether
PO 00000
Frm 00044
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
submitted electronically or in paper,
will be made available for public
viewing online at www.regulations.gov
without change, unless the comment
contains copyrighted material, CBI, or
other information whose disclosure is
restricted by statute. Information
claimed as CBI and other information
whose disclosure is restricted by statute
is not included in the official public
docket or in the electronic public
docket. EPA’s policy is that copyrighted
material, including copyrighted material
contained in a public comment, will not
be placed in EPA’s electronic public
docket but will be available only in
printed, paper form in the official public
docket. Although not all docket
materials may be available
electronically, you may still access any
of the publicly available docket
materials through the EPA Docket
Center.
B. How and To Whom Do I Submit
Comments?
You may submit comments as
provided in the ADDRESSES section.
Please ensure that your comments are
submitted within the specified comment
period. Comments received after the
close of the comment period will be
marked ‘‘late.’’ EPA is not required to
consider these late comments.
If you submit an electronic comment,
EPA recommends that you include your
name, mailing address, and an e-mail
address or other contact information in
the body of your comment and with any
disk or CD ROM you submit. This
ensures that you can be identified as the
submitter of the comment and allows
EPA to contact you in case EPA cannot
read your comment due to technical
difficulties or needs further information
on the substance of your comment. Any
identifying or contact information
provided in the body of a comment will
be included as part of the comment that
is placed in the official public docket,
and made available in EPA’s electronic
public docket. If EPA cannot read your
comment due to technical difficulties
and cannot contact you for clarification,
EPA may not be able to consider your
comment.
Use of the www.regulations.gov Web
site to submit comments to EPA
electronically is EPA’s preferred method
for receiving comments. The electronic
public docket system is an ‘‘anonymous
access’’ system, which means EPA will
not know your identity, e-mail address,
or other contact information unless you
provide it in the body of your comment.
In contrast to EPA’s electronic public
docket, EPA’s electronic mail (e-mail)
system is not an ‘‘anonymous access’’
system. If you send an e-mail comment

the comment contains copyrighted material, CBI, or other information
whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Information claimed as CBI
and other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute is not
included in the official public docket or in the electronic public
docket. EPA's policy is that copyrighted material, including
copyrighted material contained in a public comment, will not be placed
in EPA's electronic public docket but will be available only in
printed, paper form in the official public docket. Although not all
docket materials may be available electronically, you may still access
any of the publicly available docket materials through the EPA Docket
Center.
B. How and To Whom Do I Submit Comments?
You may submit comments as provided in the ADDRESSES section.
Please ensure that your comments are submitted within the specified
comment period. Comments received after the close of the comment period
will be marked ``late.'' EPA is not required to consider these late
comments.
If you submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you
include your name, mailing address, and an e-mail address or other
contact information in the body of your comment and with any disk or CD
ROM you submit. This ensures that you can be identified as the
submitter of the comment and allows EPA to contact you in case EPA
cannot read your comment due to technical difficulties or needs further
information on the substance of your comment. Any identifying or
contact information provided in the body of a comment will be included
as part of the comment that is placed in the official public docket,
and made available in EPA's electronic public docket. If EPA cannot
read your comment due to technical difficulties and cannot contact you
for clarification, EPA may not be able to consider your comment.
Use of the www.regulations.gov Web site to submit comments to EPA
electronically is EPA's preferred method for receiving comments. The
electronic public docket system is an ``anonymous access'' system,
which means EPA will not know your identity, e-mail address, or other
contact information unless you provide it in the body of your comment.
In contrast to EPA's electronic public docket, EPA's electronic mail
(e-mail) system is not an ``anonymous access'' system. If you send an
e-mail comment
[[Page 7287]]
directly to the Docket without going through www.regulations.gov, your
e-mail address is automatically captured and included as part of the
comment that is placed in the official public docket, and made
available in EPA's electronic public docket.
Dated: January 30, 2008.
Richard B. Ossias,
Associate General Counsel.
