    Take notice that on February 26, 2004, Algonquin Gas Transmission 
Company (Algonquin), 5400 Westheimer Court, Houston, Texas 77056-5310, 
filed in Docket No. CP04-67-000 an application pursuant to section 7(c) 
of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) and Part 157 of the Commission's 
regulations for authorization to install, own, operate, and maintain 
certain facilities at its existing Burrillville Compressor Station in 
Providence County, Rhode Island and at certain existing meter and valve 
stations in Tolland, Hartford, and New London Counties, Connecticut,

Rhode Island, at an estimated cost of $11,514,000. Algonquin requests

the modifications to its system will create 60,000 Dth/d of additional

Massachusetts, LLC in Everett, Massachusetts, all as more fully set 
forth in the application which is on file with the Commission and open 
to public inspection. This filing is available for review at the

    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of 
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by 
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or 
before the comment date shown below, file with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, a 
motion to intervene in accordance

[[Page 11601]]

with the requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice and 
Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA 
(18 CFR 157.10). A person obtaining party status will be placed on the 
service list maintained by the Secretary of the Commission and will 
receive copies of all documents filed by the applicant and by all other 
parties. A party must submit 14 copies of filings made with the 
Commission and must mail a copy to the applicant and to every other 
party in the proceeding. Only parties to the proceeding can ask for 
court review of Commission orders in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have 
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with 
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and 
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project. 
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the 
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will 
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's 
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project 
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly 
involved in the protest.
    Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of 
this project should submit an original and two copies of their comments 
to the Secretary of the Commission. Environmental commenters will be 
placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list, will receive 
copies of the environmental documents, and will be notified of meetings 
associated with the Commission's environmental review process. 
Environmental commenters will not be required to serve copies of filed 
documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commenters will 
not receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or issued by 
the Commission (except for the mailing of environmental documents 
issued by the Commission) and will not have the right to seek court 
review of the Commission's final order.
    Comments, protests and interventions may be filed electronically 
via the Internet in lieu of paper. See 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and 
the instructions on the Commission's Web site under the ``e-Filing'' 
link. The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings.
    Comment Date: March 19, 2004.

Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
