Texas Eastern Transmission, LP;
Notice of Application for Certificate of
Public Convenience and Necessity and
Authorization for Abandonment
Take notice that on February 27, 2013,
Texas Eastern Transmission, LP (Texas
Eastern), 5400 Westheimer Court,
Houston, Texas 77056, filed with the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
an application under Sections 7(b) and
7(c) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) for its
proposed TEAM 2014 Project.
Specifically, Texas Eastern requests
authorization under NGA Sections 7(b)
and 7(c) to construct, own, operate, and
maintain certain pipeline and
compression facilities and related
appurtenances and to abandon in place
certain compression facilities. Texas
Eastern states that the project is
necessary to increase capacity on the
Texas Eastern system by 600,000
dekatherms per day from supply points
in the Marcellus Shale region to
delivery points in New York, New
Jersey, Ohio, Mississippi and Louisiana.
Texas Eastern also seeks authority to
charge initial incremental recourse rates
for firm service on the TEAM 2014
Project facilities and existing system
rates for interruptible service on such
facilities, as well as any waivers,
authority, and further relief as may be
necessary to implement the proposal
described in its application. The
complete application is on file with the
Commission and open to public
inspection.
On July 13, 2012, the Commission
staff granted Texas Eastern’s request to
utilize the Pre-Filing Process and
assigned Docket No. PF12–19 to staff
activities involved with Texas Eastern’s
TEAM 2014 Project. Now, as of the
filing of the application on February 27,
2013, the Pre-Filing Process for this
project has ended. From this time
forward, this proceeding will be
conducted in Docket No. CP13–84–000,
as noted in the caption of this Notice.
Texas Eastern states that the facilities
that are proposed as part of the TEAM
2014 Project involve pipeline looping
and aboveground modifications located
on various segments of the Texas
Eastern system in Pennsylvania, West
Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee,
Alabama, and Mississippi. This
comprises approximately 33.6 miles of
new 36-inch diameter pipeline loop and
related aboveground facilities,
compressor station upgrades and

abandonments resulting in a net
increase of 77,100 horsepower of
compression, and certain other facility
modifications to accommodate bidirectional flow along Texas Eastern’s
system. The cost of the TEAM 2014
Project is approximately $519.7 million.

Texas Eastern has requested that the
Commission issue a final order in this
proceeding by November 21, 2013, to
enable timely commencement of
construction of the proposed facilities to
meet a November 1, 2014 in-service
date.
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, before the comment date of this
notice, 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 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 this project. The Commission will
consider these comments in
PO 00000
Frm 00041
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
17389
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 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 (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: 5:00 p.m. Eastern
Time on April 5, 2013.
