    TransColorado states that the proposed facilities, once

San Juan County, New Mexico, through its existing interstate pipeline 
to Rockies Express Pipeline LLC (Rockies Express) at an existing point

    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of 
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by 
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or 
before the comment date listed below, 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

[[Page 39086]]

status will be placed on the service list maintained by the Secretary 
of the Commission and will receive copies of all documents filed by the 
applicant and by all other parties. A party must submit 14 copies of 
this filing and all subsequent filings made with the Commission and 
must mail a copy of all filing to the applicant and to every other 
party in the proceeding. Only parties to the proceeding can ask for 
court review of Commission orders in the proceeding.
    However, other persons do not have to intervene in order to have 
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with 
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and 
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project. 
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the 
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will 
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's 
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to this 
project provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties 
directly involved in the protest.
    Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of 
this project, or in support of or in opposition to this project, should 
submit an original and two copies of their comments to the Secretary of 
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 
site (http://www.ferc.gov) under the ``e-Filing'' link.
    Comment Date: July 24, 2006.

Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
