before the 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

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. The Commission's rules require that persons filing 
comments in opposition to the project provide copies of their protests 
only to the applicant. 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.
    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
