Public Participation 

You can make a difference by 

providing us with your specific 

comments or concerns about the 

Philadelphia Lateral Expansion Project. 

Your comments should focus on the 

potential environmental effects, 

reasonable alternatives, and measures to 

avoid or lessen environmental impacts. 

The more specific your comments, the 

more useful they will be. To ensure that 

your comments are timely and properly 

recorded, please send your comments so 

that they will be received in 

Washington, DC on or before 

September 12, 2011. 

For your convenience, there are three 

methods which you can use to submit 

your comments to the Commission. In 

all instances please reference the project 

docket number (CP11–508–000) with 

your submission. The Commission 

encourages electronic filing of 

comments and has expert eFiling staff 

available to assist you at (202) 502–8258 

or efiling@ferc.gov. 

(1) You may file your comments 

electronically by using the eComment 

feature, which is located on the 

Commission’s Web site at http:// 

www.ferc.gov under the link to 

Documents and Filings. An eComment 

is an easy method for interested persons 

to submit brief, text-only comments on 

a project; 

(2) You may file your comments 

electronically by using the eFiling 

feature, which is located on the 

Commission’s Web site at http:// 

www.ferc.gov under the link to 

Documents and Filings. With eFiling, 

you can provide comments in a variety 

of formats by attaching them as a file 

with your submission. New eFiling 

users must first create an account by 

clicking on ‘‘eRegister.’’ You will be 

asked to select the type of filing you are 

making. A comment on a particular 

project is considered a ‘‘Comment on a 

Filing’’; or 

(3) You may file a paper copy of your 

comments at the following address: 

Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary, Federal 

Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 

First Street, NE., Room 1A, Washington, 

DC 20426. 

Environmental Mailing List 

The environmental mailing list 

includes Federal, State, and local 

government representatives and 

agencies; elected officials; 

environmental and public interest 

groups; Indian tribes; other interested 

parties; and local libraries and 

newspapers. This list also includes all 

affected landowners (as defined in the 

Commission’s regulations) who are 

potential right-of-way grantors, whose 

property may be used temporarily for 

project purposes, or who own homes 

within certain distances of aboveground 

facilities, and anyone who submits 

comments on the project. We will 

update the environmental mailing list as 

the analysis proceeds to ensure that we 

send the information related to this 

environmental review to all individuals, 

organizations, and government entities 

interested in and/or potentially affected 

by the proposed project. 

If the EA is published for distribution, 

copies will be sent to the environmental 

mailing list for public review and 

comment. If you would prefer to receive 

a paper copy of the document instead of 

the CD version or would like to remove 

your name from the mailing list, please 

return the attached Information Request 

(Appendix 4). 

Becoming an Intervenor 

In addition to involvement in the EA 

scoping process, you may want to 

become an ‘‘intervenor,’’ which is an 

official party to the Commission’s 

proceeding. Intervenors play a more 

formal role in the process and are able 

to file briefs, appear at hearings, and be 

heard by the courts if they choose to 

appeal the Commission’s final ruling. 

An intervenor formally participates in 

the proceeding by filing a request to 

intervene. Instructions for becoming an 

intervenor are included in the User’s 

Guide under the ‘‘e-filing’’ link on the 

Commission’s Web site. 

Additional Information 

Additional information about the 

project is available from the 

Commission’s Office of External Affairs, 

at (866) 208–FERC, or on the FERC Web 

site at http://www.ferc.gov using the 

‘‘eLibrary’’ link. Click on the eLibrary 

link, click on ‘‘General Search’’ and 

enter the docket number, excluding the 

last three digits in the Docket Number 

field (CP11–508). Be sure you have 

selected an appropriate date range. For 

assistance, please contact FERC Online 

Support at FercOnlineSupport@ferc.gov 

or toll free at (866) 208–3676, or for 

TTY, contact (202) 502–8659. The 

eLibrary link also provides access to the 

text of formal documents issued by the 

Commission, such as orders, notices, 

and rulemakings. 

In addition, the Commission now 

offers a free service called eSubscription 

which allows you to keep track of all 

formal issuances and submittals in 

specific dockets. This can reduce the 

amount of time you spend researching 

proceedings by automatically providing 

you with notification of these filings, 

document summaries, and direct links 

to the documents. Go to http:// 

www.ferc.gov/esubscribenow.htm. 

Finally, public meetings or site visits 

will be posted on the Commission’s 

calendar located at http://www.ferc.gov/ 

EventCalendar/EventsList.aspx along 

with other related information.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket No. PR09–18–001] 

New Mexico Gas Company, Inc.; Notice 

of Motion for Extension of Rate Case 

Filing Deadline 

Take notice that on August 12, 2011, 

New Mexico Gas Company, Inc. 

(NMGC) filed a request for an extension 

consistent with the Commission’s 

revised policy of periodic review from 

a triennial to a five year period. The 

Commission in Order No. 735 modified 

its policy concerning periodic reviews 

of rates charges by section 311 and 

Hinshaw pipelines to extend the cycle 

for such reviews from three to five 

years.1 Therefore, NMGC requests that 

the date for its next rate filing be 

extended to August 28, 2013, which is 

five years from the date of NMGC’s most 

recent rate filing with this Commission. 

Any person desiring to participate in 

this rate proceeding must file a motion 

to intervene or to protest this filing must 

file in accordance with Rules 211 and 

214 of the Commission’s Rules of 

Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 

and 385.214). Protests will be 

considered by the Commission in 

determining the appropriate action to be 

taken, but will not serve to make 

protestants parties to the proceeding. 

Any person wishing to become a party 

must file a notice of intervention or 

motion to intervene, as appropriate. 

Such notices, motions, or protests must 

be filed on or before the date as 

indicated below. Anyone filing an 

intervention or protest must serve a 

copy of that document on the Applicant. 

Anyone filing an intervention or protest 

on or before the intervention or protest 

date need not serve motions to intervene 

or protests on persons other than the 

Applicant. 

The Commission encourages 

electronic submission of 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 7 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.
