28452 Federal Register / Vol. 66, No. 100 / Wednesday, May 23, 2001 / Notices

DTI proposes to abandon its storage

well N205S and to convert it to an

observation well in the Woodhull

Storage Pool. DTI requests authorization

to abandon N205S because the

expenditures required to maintain this

well and the gathering lines that

connect it to DTI’s mainline are not

operationally or economically justified.

DTI also states that, due to continuing

problems with the well and the

connecting gathering line, the well has

been unavailable to the gathering system

each withdrawal season and is

contributing nothing to pool

deliverability. DTI states that the pool

deliverability will be unaffected if well

N205S is abandoned and converted to

an observation well. DTI further states

that it plans to abandon the lines that

connect well N205S to DTI’s mainline,

specifically 1200 feet of 6-inch-diameter

well line LN720S and 500 feet of 8-inchdiameter well line LN695S, under DTI’s

Part 157 blanket certificate authority.

Any questions regarding this

application should be directed in

writing to Sean R. Sleigh, Manager,

Certificates, Dominion Transmission,

Inc., 445 West Main Street, Clarksburg,

West Virginia 26301 or by telephone at

(304) 627–3462.

Any person desiring to be heard or

any person desiring to make any

protests with reference to said

application should on or before June 7,

2001, file with the Federal Energy

Regulatory Commission, 888 First

Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, a

motion to intervene or a protest 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). All protests filed with the

Commission will be considered by it in

determining the appropriate action to be

taken but will not serve to make the

protestants parties to the proceeding.

Any person wishing to become a party

to a proceeding or to participate as a

party in any hearing therein must file a

motion to intervene in accordance with

the Commission’s Rules. 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 at http://

www.ferc.fed.us/efi/doorbell.htm.

Take further notice that, pursuant to

the authority contained in and subject to

the jurisdiction conferred upon the

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

by Sections 7 and 15 of the NGA and the

Commission’s Rules of Practice and

Procedure, a hearing will be held

without further notice before the

Commission or its designee on this

application if no motion to intervene is

filed within the time required herein, if

the Commission on its own review of

the matter finds that permission and

approval for the proposed abandonment

are required by the public convenience

and necessity. If a motion for leave to

intervene is timely filed, or if the

Commission on its own motion believes

that a formal hearing is required, further

notice of such hearing will be duly

given.

Under the procedure herein provided

for, unless otherwise advised, it will be

unnecessary for DTI to appear or be

represented at the hearing.

Secretary.

By letter dated April 5, 2001, Erie

Boulevard Hydropower, L.P. (Erie)

requested an extension of time for the

filing of comments in response to the

Commission’s Notice of Ready for

Environmental Analysis and Soliciting

Comments, Recommendations, Terms

and Conditions, and Prescriptions

issued March 27, 2001, concerning

Erie’s application for a proposed

original license for the Parishville

Project on the West Branch of the St.

Regis River, near the village of

Parishville, St. Lawrence County, New

York. Erie stated that it had been

meeting with the New York Department

of Environmental Conservation

(NYSDEC) as part of continuing

negotiations on major licensing issues

pertaining to the project and anticipated

a settlement offer on those issues to be

achieved by June 2001. Erie stated that

the additional time is needed so the

parties to the proceedings (particularly

the resource agencies) can avoid having

to develop and support positions,

especially recommendations or

mandatory conditions pursuant to

Section 10(j) or Section 18 of the

Federal Power Act, that may differ from

proposals expected to be arrived at in

the settlement offer.
