[Docket No. PF09-11-000 ]


TransCanada Alaska Company, LLC; Notice of Public Scoping 
Meetings for the Planned Alaska Pipeline Project

    The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or 
Commission) will conduct public scoping meetings as part of their 
preparation of an environmental impact statement (EIS) on the Alaska 
Pipeline Project (APP). The APP is a planned natural gas pipeline 
system that would transport gas produced on the Alaska North Slope to 
the Alaska-Canada border to connect with a pipeline system in Canada 
for onward delivery to markets in North America. The APP is being 
advanced jointly by TransCanada Alaska Company, LLC and ExxonMobil 
Alaska Midstream Gas Investments, LLC.
    More information about the Commission's EIS and the APP is 
available in the Notice of Intent to Prepare an Environmental Impact 
Statement for the Planned Alaska Pipeline Project and Request for 
Comments on Environmental Issues (NOI), issued August 1, 2011. The NOI 
describes the scoping process that is under way seeking public 
participation in the environmental review of this planned project. The 
public scoping meetings, listed below, provide an opportunity to submit 
verbal comments in addition to, or in lieu of, written comments on 
issues of environmental concern related to the APP. Please note that 
the scoping period for the APP will close on February 27, 2012.
    The NOI and additional information regarding the pre-filing review 
of this planned project is available from FERC's Office of External 
Affairs at (866) 208-FERC (3372) or on the FERC Web site (www.ferc.gov)
