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

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
