regulations for an order amending the 

certificate of public convenience and 

necessity issued in Docket No. CP10– 

34–000 to authorize East Cheyenne to 

make certain changes to its certificated 

Project, which relate primarily to the 

design and number of wells to be 

employed in the initial Project 

development, all as more fully set forth 

in the application which is on file with 

the Commission and open to public 

inspection. The filing may also be 

viewed on the Web at http:// 

www.ferc.gov using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link.

Any questions concerning this 

application may be directed to James F.

East Cheyenne also seeks 

reaffirmation of its previously granted 

authorization to charge market-based 

rates for its storage and hub services, as 

well as the various waivers granted in 

the order issuing certificates. East 

Cheyenne also requests that the 

Commission rescind the pre-granted 

abandonment authorization issued to 

East Cheyenne because East Cheyenne 

no longer plans to construct the 

temporary West Peetz Compressor 

Station. East Cheyenne refers to this 

project as the ‘‘Well Plan Amendment.’’ 

East Cheyenne states that it does not 

propose any change in capacity, 

pressures, injection rates or withdrawal 

rates authorized by the Commission in 

the original certificate order in this 

Application. East Cheyenne represents 

that the Well Plan Amendment will 

have minimal impact on the natural 

environment and on adjacent 

landowners. 

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 

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. 

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 

stated 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 

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 

7 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. 

Persons who wish to comment only 

on the environmental review of this 

project should submit an original and 

two copies of their comments to the 

Secretary of the Commission. 

Environmental commentors 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 commentors will not be 

required to serve copies of filed 

documents on all other parties. 

However, the non-party commentors 

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 in lieu of paper using 

the ‘‘eFiling’’ link at http://www.ferc.gov. 

Persons unable to file electronically 

should submit an original and 14 copies 

of the protest or intervention to the 

Federal Energy regulatory Commission, 

888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 

20426. 

This filing is accessible on-line at 

http://www.ferc.gov, using the 

‘‘eLibrary’’ link and is available for 

review in the Commission’s Public 

Reference Room in Washington, DC. 

There is an ‘‘eSubscription’’ link on the 

Web site that enables subscribers to 

receive e-mail notification when a 

document is added to a subscribed 

docket(s). For assistance with any FERC

foot-high concrete diversion weir and 

intake structure on the Hanalei River 

creating a reservoir with a storage 

capacity of 7.7-acre-feet; (2) a 23,500- 

foot-long, 3.5-foot-diameter main steel 

penstock running from the Hanalei 

diversion weir to the powerhouse; (3) a 

35-foot-long, 5-foot-high concrete 

diversion weir with intake structure 

located on the Kaiwa Stream creating a 

reservoir with a storage capacity of less 

than 0.25 acre-feet; (4) a 1,100-foot-long, 

2-foot-diameter steel feeder penstock 

from the Kaiwa intake structure to the
