Dominion Cove Point LNG, LP; Notice of Technical Conference

October 29, 2004.
    On August 27, 2004,\1\ the Commission issued an order directing the 
Commission Staff to convene a technical conference to discuss certain 
issues raised by Dominion Cove Point LNG, LP (Cove Point) in a July 30, 
2004, filing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Dominion Cove Point LNG, LP, 108 FERC ] 61,211 (2004).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The purpose of the technical conference that is the subject of this 
notice is to discuss whether tariff language proposed by Cove Point in 
a ministerial filing is consistent with current Commission policies 
concerning title transfer tracking, as well as the practices of other 
LNG terminals.
    Protestors assert that the tariff language Cove Point is proposing 
was originally included in its tariff in 1995, prior to the widespread 
use of technology permitting instant transfers of information. They 
assert that the requirement of two business days before providing 
parties with notification of a requested transfer is an obstacle to the 
efficient, market driven transactions that the Commission has promoted.
    This technical conference will therefore give interested parties 
the opportunity to discuss whether Cove Point's proposal is justifiable 
or, as protesters assert, unreasonable in light of today's 
communications technology.
    Take notice that the conference will be held on Tuesday, November 
9, 2004 at 10 a.m. (EST), 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.
    Any questions or concerns about the conference should be directed 
to: Eric Winterbauer, Office of the General Counsel--Markets, Tariffs 
and Rates, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., 
Washington, DC 20426, (202) 502-8329, [email protected].

Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
