for the completion of all necessary
reviews, and the subsequent need to
complete all federal authorizations
within 90 days of the date of issuance
of the Commission staff’s FEIS or EA.
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, on or before the comment date
stated below, 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
five 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
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 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 and will not have the right
to seek court review of the
Commission’s final order.

As of the February 27, 2018 date of
the Commission’s order in Docket No.
CP16–4–001, the Commission will
apply its revised practice concerning
out-of-time motions to intervene in any
new NGA section 3 or section 7
proceeding.1 Persons desiring to become
a party to a certificate proceeding are to
intervene in a timely manner. If seeking
to intervene out-of-time, the movant is
required to show good cause why the
time limitation should be waived, and
should provide justification by reference
to factors set forth in Rule 214(d)(1) of
the Commission’s Rules and
Regulations.2
The Commission strongly encourages
electronic filings of comments, protests
and interventions in lieu of paper using
the eFiling link at https://www.ferc.gov.
Persons unable to file electronically may
mail similar pleadings to the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888
First Street NE, Washington, DC 20426.
Hand delivered submissions in
docketed proceedings should be
delivered to Health and Human
Services, 12225 Wilkins Avenue,
Rockville, Maryland 20852.
