issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the
Commission staff’s issuance of the final
environmental impact statement (FEIS)
or environmental assessment (EA) for
this proposal. The filing of an EA in the

the date of issuance of the Commission
staff’s FEIS or EA.
Public Participation
There are three ways to become
involved in the Commission’s review of
this project: you can file comments on

and you can file a motion to intervene
in the proceeding. There is no fee or
cost for filing comments or intervening.
The deadline for filing a motion to
intervene is 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on
March 27, 2024. How to file protests,
motions to intervene, and comments is

public engagement and participation in
Commission proceedings. OPP can help
members of the public, including
landowners, environmental justice
communities, Tribal members and
others, access publicly available
information and navigate Commission
processes. For public inquiries and

interventions, comments, or requests for
rehearing, the public is encouraged to

regulations. A protest may also serve as
a motion to intervene so long as the
protestor states it also seeks to be an
intervenor.
To ensure that your comments or
protests are timely and properly
recorded, please submit your comments
on or before March 27, 2024.
There are three methods you can use
to submit your comments or protests to
the Commission. In all instances, please
reference the Project docket number
CP24–68–000 in your submission.
(1) You may file your comments
electronically by using the eComment
feature, which is located on the
Commission’s website at www.ferc.gov
under the link to Documents and
Filings. Using eComment is an easy
method for interested persons to submit
brief, text-only comments on a project;
(2) You may file your comments or
protests electronically by using the
eFiling feature, which is located on the
Commission’s website (www.ferc.gov)
under the link to Documents and
Filings. With eFiling, you can provide
comments in a variety of formats by
attaching them as a file with your
submission. New eFiling users must
first create an account by clicking on
‘‘eRegister.’’ You will be asked to select
the type of filing you are making; first
select ‘‘General’’ and then select
‘‘Comment on a Filing’’; or
(3) You can file a paper copy of your
comments or protests by mailing them
to the following address below. Your
written comments must reference the
Project docket number (CP24–68–000).
To file via USPS: Debbie-Anne A.
Reese, Acting Secretary, Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street
NE, Washington, DC 20426.
To file via any other courier: DebbieAnne A. Reese, Acting Secretary,
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission,
12225 Wilkins Avenue, Rockville,
Maryland 20852.
The Commission encourages
electronic filing of comments (options 1
and 2 above) and has eFiling staff
available to assist you at (202) 502–8258
or FercOnlineSupport@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.
Interventions
Any person, which includes
individuals, organizations, businesses,
municipalities, and other entities,6 has
the option to file a motion to intervene
in this proceeding. Only intervenors
have the right to request rehearing of
Commission orders issued in this
proceeding and to subsequently
challenge the Commission’s orders in
the U.S. Circuit Courts of Appeal.
To intervene, you must submit a
motion to intervene to the Commission
in accordance with Rule 214 of the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedure 7 and the regulations under
the NGA 8 by the intervention deadline
for the project, which is March 27, 2024.
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/
resources/guides/how-to/intervene.asp.
There are two ways to submit your
motion to intervene. In both instances,
please reference the Project docket
number CP24–68–000 in your
submission.
(1) You may file your motion to
intervene by using the Commission’s
eFiling feature, which is located on the
Commission’s website (www.ferc.gov)
under the link to Documents and
Filings. New eFiling users must first
create an account by clicking on
‘‘eRegister.’’ You will be asked to select
the type of filing you are making; first
select ‘‘General’’ and then select
‘‘Intervention.’’ The eFiling feature
includes a document-less intervention
option; for more information, visit
https://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/efiling/

motion to intervene, along with three

intervenor must be served on the
applicant and all other parties to the
proceeding. Contact information for
parties can be downloaded from the
service list at the eService link on FERC
Online. Service can be via email with a
link to the document.
All timely, unopposed 9 motions to
intervene are automatically granted by
operation of Rule 214(c)(1).10 Motions to
intervene that are filed after the
intervention deadline are untimely, and
may be denied. Any late-filed motion to
intervene must show good cause for
being late and must explain why the
time limitation should be waived and
provide justification by reference to
factors set forth in Rule 214(d) of the
Commission’s Rules and Regulations.11
A person obtaining party status will be

the Secretary of the Commission and
will receive copies (paper or electronic)

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.
Interventions
Any person, which includes individuals, organizations, businesses,
municipalities, and other entities,\6\ has the option to file a motion
to intervene in this proceeding. Only intervenors have the right to
request rehearing of Commission orders issued in this proceeding and to
subsequently challenge the Commission's orders in the U.S. Circuit
Courts of Appeal.

the extent known, your position regarding the proceeding, as well as
your interest in the proceeding. For an individual, this could include

community, or recreationist. You do not need to have property directly
impacted by the project in order to intervene. For more information

granted by operation of Rule 214(c)(1).\10\ Motions to intervene that
are filed after the intervention deadline are untimely, and may be
denied. Any late-filed motion to intervene must show good cause for

and provide justification by reference to factors set forth in Rule
214(d) of the Commission's Rules and Regulations.\11\ A person
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies (paper or
electronic) of all documents filed by the applicant and by all other
