Gulf South Pipeline Company, LP; 

Notice of Application 

October 2, 2009. 

Take notice that on September 28, 

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 authorization to amend 

its existing certificate to reduce to the 

maximum certificated capacity on the 

East Southeast Expansion Project 

facilities to reflect refined flow 

characteristics after a year of operational 

experience, 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 

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– 

47908033 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.
