June 8, 2009.
    Take notice that on May 22, 2009, Gulf South Pipeline Company, LP 
(Gulf South), filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 
(Commission) an application under section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act 
(NGA) seeking: (i) authorization to construct, install, own, operate 
and maintain three new compressor units and yard and station piping, 
including appurtenant and auxiliary facilities, at two existing Gulf 
South compressor stations in the State of Louisiana--the Hall Summit 
Compressor Station, Bienville Parish, Louisiana, where two new turbine 
compressor units totaling 32,913 horsepower (HP) are proposed, and at 
the Tallulah Compressor Station, Madison Parish, Louisiana, where one 
new 17,558 hp turbine compressor unit is proposed, and (ii) a 
predetermination that Gulf South may charge incremental rates for the 
capacity created by the compression upgrades, all as more fully 
described in the application.
    This filing may be also viewed on the Web at http://www.ferc.gov 
using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket number excluding the last 
three digits in the docket number field to access the document. For 
assistance, call (866) 208-3676 or TTY, (202) 502-8659.
    Pursuant to section 157.9 of the Commission's rules, 18 CFR 157.9, 
within 90 days of this Notice the Commission staff will either: 
Complete its environmental assessment (EA) and place it into the 
Commission's public record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or issue a 
Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of

[[Page 28232]]

Schedule for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among 
other milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's 
issuance of the final environmental impact statement (FEIS) or EA for 
this proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission's public record 
for this proceeding or the issuance of a Notice of Schedule for 
Environmental Review will serve to notify federal and state agencies of 
the timing for the completion of all necessary reviews, and the 
subsequent need to complete all federal authorizations within 90 days 
of the date of issuance of the Commission staff's FEIS or EA.
    Any questions regarding this application should be directed to: J. 
Kyle Stephens, Vice President of Regulatory Affairs, Boardwalk Pipeline 
Partners, LP, 9 Greenway Plaza, Suite 2800, Houston, Texas 77046, at 
713-479-8033 or fax at 713-479-1846.
    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, before the 
comment date of this notice, 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 
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 
filings made with the Commission and must mail a copy 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, a person does 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 the project 
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly 
involved in the protest.
    Comments, protests and interventions may be filed electronically 
via the Internet in lieu of paper. See, 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and 
the instructions on the Commission's Web site under the ``e-Filing'' 
link.
    Comment Date: June 29, 2009.

Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
