Maritimes & Northeast Pipeline, L.L.C.; Notice of Technical 
Conference

September 6, 2002.
    Maritimes & Northeast Pipeline, L.L.C. (Maritimes) seeks 
authorization, pursuant to Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA), 
to construct and operate pipeline facilities (the Phase IV Project) 
that will result in an increase of approximately 385,000 dekatherms per 
day in year-round mainline design capacity. The proposed facilities for 
the Phase IV Project will, in part, be located on the facilities that 
Maritimes owns jointly with Portland Natural Gas Transmission System 
(PNGTS). PNGTS has protested Maritimes' filing stating that it violates 
the agreements governing the ownership, expansion rights and operation 
of the jointly-owned facilities and asks that the Commission reject the 
application.
    Take notice that a technical conference to discuss the issues 
raised by the PNGTS protest will be held on Tuesday, September 17, 
2002, at 10 a.m., in a room to be designated at the offices of the 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., 
Washington, DC 20426.
    All interested parties and staff are permitted to attend. For 
further information contact Jeff Wright at (202) 502-8617.

Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
