    On January 8, 2004, the Commission staff granted Crown Landing's 
request to utilize the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Pre-
Filing Process and assigned Docket No. PF04-2-000 to staff activities 
involving Crown Landing. Now, as of the filing of Crown Landing's

Crown Landing's project is closed. From this time forward, Crown 
Landing's proceeding will be conducted in Docket No. CP04-411-000.
    On January 20, 2004, the Commission staff also granted Texas 
Eastern's request to utilize the NEPA Pre-Filing Process and assigned 
Docket No. PF04-5-000 to staff activities involving Texas Eastern. Now, 
as of the filing of Texas Eastern's application on September 17, 2004, 
the NEPA Pre-Filing Process for Texas Eastern's project is closed. From 
this time forward, Texas Eastern's proceeding will be conducted in 
Docket No. CP04-416-000.
    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 below listed comment date, file with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, a 
motion to intervene in accordance 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.

[[Page 59907]]

    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 may also wish to comment further only on the environmental 
review of this project. Environmental commenters will be placed on the 
Commission's environmental mailing list, will receive copies of 
environmental documents issued by the Commission, and will be notified 
of meetings associated with the Commission's environmental review 
process. Those persons, organizations, and agencies who submitted 
comments during the NEPA Pre-Filing Processes in Docket Nos. PF04-2-000 
and PF04-5-000 are already on the Commission staff's environmental 
mailing list for the proceeding in the above dockets and may file 
additional comments on or before the below listed comment date. 
Environmental commenters will not be required to serve copies of filed 
documents on all other parties. However, environmental commenters are 
also not parties to the proceeding and will not receive copies of all 
documents filed by other parties or non-environmental documents issued 
by the Commission. They will not have the right to seek court review of 
any final order by Commission in this proceeding.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments, 
protests, and interventions via the Internet in lieu of paper. See, 18 
CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web 
site (http://www.ferc.gov) under the ``e-Filing'' link.

    Comment Date: October 20, 2004.
Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
