file in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of 
Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 and 385.214). Protests will be 
considered by the Commission in determining the appropriate action to

intervention or motion to intervene, as appropriate. Such notices, 
motions, or protests must be filed on or before the comment date.

not necessary to serve motions to intervene or protests on persons 
other than the Applicant.

interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link at http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should submit an 
original and 14 copies of the protest or intervention to the Federal
