Cove Point LNG Limited Partnership; Notice of Request for 
Extension of Time

March 23, 2000.
    Take notice that on March 13, 2000, pursuant to Rule 212 of the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.212, Cove 
Point

[[Page 16581]]

LNG Limited Partnership (Cove Point) tendered for filing a request for 
an extension of time in which to comply with the requirement to make a 
pro forma tariff filing, by May 1, 2000, to implement certain tariff 
changes regarding scheduling, capacity segmentation and penalties, as 
mandated by Order No. 637.
    Cove Point argues that reopening of Cove Point's LNG tanker 
discharging service will result in a significant increase in the volume 
of revaporized LNG and natural gas being delivered out of Cove Point's 
facilities into the natural gas pipelines interconnected with Cove 
Point. Cove Point states that the increased throughput will necessitate 
changes to operations at Cove Point which will involve those subject 
matters covered by Order No. 637.
    Cove Point requests that it be granted an extension of time to 
comply with the requirements of Order No. 637 that have a May 1, 2000 
compliance deadline, so that the required tariff changes would be 
effective on the date that the tariff sheets approved for the 
reactivation of the LNG discharging terminal are effective.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said filing should 
file a motion to intervene or a protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426, 
in accordance with Sections 385.214 or 385.211 of the Commission's 
Rules and Regulations. All such motions or protests must be filed on or 
before March 30, 2000. Protests will be considered by the Commission in 
determining the appropriate action to be taken, but will not serve to 
make protestants parties to the proceedings. Any person wishing to 
become a party must file a motion to intervene.
    Copies of this filing are on file with the Commission and are 
available for public inspection in the Public Reference Room. This 
filing may be viewed on the web at http://www.ferc.fed.us/online/rims.htm (call 202-208-2222 for assistance).
