to condemn (PSCo's) transmission facilities and associated substations 
requires prior approval by the Commission under Federal Power Act 
section 203, 16 U.S.C. 824b; (ii) the Commission, when exercising its 
section 203 jurisdiction, will apply its longstanding criteria that 
consider, inter alia, the effect of the proposed transfer on rates, 
regulation and other relevant factors; and (iii) the Commission's 
exercise of its section 203 jurisdiction does not diminish the 
authority of the Colorado Public Utilities Commission with respect to 
the condemnation.

file in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of

be taken, but will not serve to make protestants parties to the

intervention or motion to intervene, as appropriate. Such notices, 
motions, or protests must be filed on or before the comment date. On or 
before the comment date, it is not necessary to serve motions to
