Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 34 / Monday, February 23, 2009 / Notices
There are two ways to become
involved in the Commission’s review of
this application. First, any person
wishing to obtain legal status by
becoming a party to this proceeding
should 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) by the
comment date, below. 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 14 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 the 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 commentors 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 commentors will not be
required to serve copies of filed
documents on all other parties.
However, the non-party commentors
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.
The Commission strongly encourages
electronic filings of comments, protests,

and interventions via the Internet in lieu
of paper. See 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii)
and the instructions on the
Commission’s Web site (https://
www.ferc.gov) under the ‘‘e-Filing’’ link.
Persons unable to file electronically
should submit an original and 14 copies
of the protest or intervention to the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission,
888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC
20426.
Comment Date: March 5, 2009.

Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission
PPL Montana, LLC; Notice of
Availability of Environmental
Assessment
[Docket No. CP95–35–001]
February 12, 2009.
In accordance with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and
the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission’s regulations, 18 CFR Part
380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47879) the
Office of Energy Projects has prepared
an environmental assessment (EA) for
an application filed by PPL Montana,
LLC (licensee) on June 11, 2008,
requesting Commission approval to
construct numerous improvements at
the Rainbow Development of the
Missouri-Madison Hydroelectric Project
(FERC No. 2188). The licensee proposes
improvements that differ substantially
from those analyzed during the
relicensing of the project. Specifically,
the licensee proposes to construct a new
intake, power canal, powerhouse, and
tailrace at the Rainbow Development.
The project’s Rainbow Development is
located on the Missouri River northeast
of the City of Great Falls, in Cascade
County, Montana. The EA evaluates the
environmental impacts that would
result from approving the licensee’s
proposal. The EA finds that approval of
the application would not constitute a
major federal action significantly
affecting the quality of the human
environment.
A copy of the EA is on file with the
Commission and is available for public
inspection. The EA may also be viewed
on the Commission’s Web site at
https://www.ferc.gov using the
‘‘eLibrary’’ link. Enter the docket

EcoElectrica, L.P.; Notice of
Availability of the Environmental
Assessment for the Proposed
´
EcoElectrica Terminal Modification
Project
February 13, 2009.
The staff of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) has prepared an
environmental assessment (EA) on the
liquefied natural gas (LNG) facilities
´
proposed by EcoElectrica, L.P.
´
(EcoElectrica) in the above-referenced
docket.
The EA was prepared to satisfy the
requirements of the National
Environmental Policy Act. The FERC
staff concludes that approval of the
proposed project, with appropriate
mitigating measures, would not
constitute a major federal action
significantly affecting the quality of the
human environment.
The EA assesses the potential
environmental effects of the
construction and operation of
´
EcoElectrica’s proposed Terminal
Modification Project (Project). The
Project would utilize a previously
constructed natural gas pipeline at the
´
existing EcoElectrica LNG terminal that
extends to the facility fence line where
it would interconnect with Puerto Rico
Electric Power Authority’s (PREPA)
facilities. The Project would also
involve construction of:
• Two additional vertical shell and
tube heat exchanger vaporizers;
• One fixed speed, in-tank LNG
sendout pump;
