to construct a 0.15-mile-long, 13.8-kV, three-phase underground

switching station located on the opposite bank of the Snoqualmie River. 
The applicant instead proposes to construct a 0.06-mile-long, 115-kV, 
three-phase overhead transmission line. The applicant indicates that: 
(1) The proposed overhead line will simplify construction, achieve 
operational economic efficiencies, and improve reliability; (2) the 
proposed transmission line will be located on the licensee's fee-owned 
property and easements that are currently within the project boundary; 
and (3) no federally-owned lands are involved with or affected by this 
amendment.

385.211, 385.214. In determining the appropriate action to take, the

protests, or motions to intervene must be received on or before the

evidentiary basis and otherwise comply with the requirements of 18 CFR 
4.34(b). All comments, motions to intervene, or protests should relate 
to project works which are the subject of the amendment application. 
Agencies may obtain copies of the application directly from the 
applicant. A copy of any protest or motion to intervene must be served 
upon each representative of the applicant specified in the particular 
application. If an intervener files comments or documents with the 
Commission relating to the merits of an issue that may affect the 
responsibilities of a particular resource agency, they must also serve 
a copy of the document on that resource agency. A copy of all other 
filings in reference to this application must be accompanied by proof 
of service on all persons listed in the service list prepared by the 
Commission in this proceeding, in accordance with 18 CFR 4.34(b) and
