party, you must intervene in the
proceeding. For instructions on how to
intervene, see below.
Interventions
Any person, which includes
individuals, organizations, businesses,
municipalities, and other entities,4 has
the option to file a motion to intervene

Commission orders issued in this
proceeding and to subsequently
challenge the Commission’s orders in

motion to intervene to the Commission
in accordance with Rule 214 of the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedure 5 and the regulations under
the NGA 6 by the intervention deadline
for the project, which is March 22, 2021.
As described further in Rule 214, your
motion to intervene must state, to the
extent known, your position regarding
the proceeding, as well as your interest
in the proceeding. [For an individual,
this could include your status as a
landowner, ratepayer, resident of an
impacted community, or recreationist.
You do not need to have property
directly impacted by the project in order
to intervene.] For more information
about motions to intervene, refer to the
FERC website at https://www.ferc.gov/

Persons who comment on the environmental review of this project
will be placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list, and will
receive notification when the environmental documents (EA or EIS) are
issued for this project and will be notified of meetings associated
with the Commission's environmental review process.
The Commission considers all comments received about the project in
determining the appropriate action to be taken. However, the filing of
a comment alone will not serve to make the filer a party to the
proceeding. To become a party, you must intervene in the proceeding.
For instructions on how to intervene, see below.

municipalities, and other entities,\4\ has the option to file a motion

Courts of Appeal.
