System Alignment Program Project

Public Scoping Meeting

Date, Time, and Call-in Information

Wednesday, November 16, 2022, 6:00 p.m. (EST)
Call in number: 888-790-2037
Participant passcode: 8945002
    Note that the scoping meeting will start at 6:00 p.m. (EST) and 
will terminate once all participants wishing to comment have had the 
opportunity to do so, or at 8:00 p.m. (EST), whichever comes first. The 
primary goal of this scoping session is to have you identify the 
specific environmental issues and concerns that should be considered in 
the environmental document. Individual oral comments will be taken on a 
one-on-one basis with a court reporter present on the line. This format 
is designed to receive the maximum amount of oral comments in a 
convenient way during the timeframe allotted.
    There will be a brief introduction by Commission staff when the 
session opens. Important information about the FERC process will be 
provided, so please make every attempt to call in at the beginning of 
the meeting. All participants will be able to hear the one-on-one 
comments provided by other participants; however, all lines will remain 
closed during the comments of others and then opened one at a time for 
providing comments.
    Your oral comments will be recorded by the court reporter (with 
FERC staff or representative present) and become part of the public 
record for this proceeding. Transcripts will be publicly available on 
FERC's eLibrary system. If a significant number of people are 
interested in providing oral comments in the one-on-one settings, a 
time limit of 3 minutes may be implemented for each commentor. It is 
important to note that oral comments hold the same weight as written or 
electronically submitted comments.
    As a reminder, the Commission encourages electronic filing of 
comments and has staff available to assist you at (866) 208-3676 or
