    In a Notice of Technical Conference issued October 29, 2004, the 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission announced that it would host a 
technical conference on Thursday, January 6, 2005, to discuss specific 
transmission proposals and cost issues for the State of Connecticut. 
The conference will be held in Room 2C of the Legislative Office 
Building, 300 Capitol Avenue, Hartford, Connecticut.
    Please take note that the workshop schedule has changed, to begin 
at 10 a.m. (EST) (instead of 9 a.m.) and end at approximately 1 p.m. 
(instead of 3 p.m.). Members of the Federal Energy Regulatory 
Commission are expected to participate, along with state regulators 
from the New England region. An agenda is attached to this notice.
    This conference is a follow-up to the infrastructure conference 
that was held on October 13, 2004. The goal of this technical 
conference is to provide a forum for discussion of issues affecting 
energy infrastructure in and around Connecticut. This discussion will 
take place between federal, State and regional leaders and industry 
representatives. The January 6 conference will focus primarily on 
proposals for new electric transmission, and the costs of these 
proposals.
    The conference is a technical discussion between policy leaders, 
however, members of the public are welcome to attend. Registration is 
not required; however, in-person attendees are asked to register for 
the conference on-line by close of business on Tuesday,
