Notice of Issuance of Staff Report on Ideas for Better 
Stakeholder Involvement

December 18, 2001.
    The staff of the Office of Energy Projects has issued a revised 
version of its report entitled: ``Ideas For Better Stakeholder 
Involvement In The Interstate Natural Gas Pipeline Planning Pre-Filing 
Process.'' The report has been revised based on feedback received at 
Sixth Interstate Natural Gas Facility-Planning Seminar held on October 
26, 2001.
    The report can be downloaded from the FERC Web site at www.ferc.gov 
or requested by E-mail at: gas [email protected].
    As discussed at the October 26 meeting, the staff is in the process 
of planning a series of workshops to bring interstate natural gas 
companies and Federal, state and local agency representatives, and 
landowners together to discuss implementation of stakeholder 
involvement programs. The workshops will be organized in a way to 
provide opportunities to present and discuss case-studies of efforts 
taken by interstate pipeline companies which highlight the various 
challenges and successes of getting people involved in the pipeline 
planning process before the applications are filed. Future notices will 
announce the format, dates and locations of the workshops.
    If you have any questions, please contact Richard Hoffmann at 202/
208-0066 or Lauren O'Donnell at 202/208-0325.

J. Mark Robinson,
Director, Office of Energy Projects.
