representatives and agencies; elected 

officials; environmental and public 

interest groups; Native American tribes; 

potentially affected landowners and 

other interested individuals and groups; 

newspapers and libraries in the project

Any person wishing to comment on 

the EA may do so. 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 properly recorded and 

considered prior to a Commission 

decision on the proposal, it is important 

that the FERC receives your comments 

in Washington, DC on or before 

November 4, 2010. 

For your convenience, there are three 

methods you can use to submit your 

comments to the Commission. In all 

instances, please reference the project 

docket number (CP10–468–000) with 

your submission. The Commission 

encourages electronic filing of 

comments and has dedicated eFiling 

expert 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. 

Although your comments will be 

considered by the Commission, simply 

filing comments will not serve to make 

the commenter a party to the 

proceeding. Any person seeking to 

become a party to the proceeding must 

file a motion to intervene pursuant to 

Rule 214 of the Commission’s Rules of 

Practice and Procedures (18 CFR 

385.214).3 Only intervenors have the 

right to seek rehearing of the 

Commission’s decision. 

Affected landowners and parties with 

environmental concerns may be granted 

intervenor status upon showing good 

cause by stating that they have a clear 

and direct interest in this proceeding 

which would not be adequately 

represented by any other parties. You do 

not need intervenor status to have your 

comments considered.

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket No. AD11–2–000] 

Transmission Vegetation Management 

Practices; Notice of Technical 

Conference 

October 5, 2010. 

Take notice that the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (Commission) 

staff will hold a Technical Conference 

on Transmission Vegetation 

Management Programs on Tuesday, 

October 26, 2010 from 1 p.m. to 

approximately 5 p.m. This staff-led 

conference will be held in the 

Commission Meeting Room at the 

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 

888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 

20426. The conference will be open for 

the public to attend and advance 

registration is not required. Members of 

the Commission may attend the 

conference. 

The purpose of the conference is to 

discuss current vegetation management 

programs and practices as required 

under the Commission’s Reliability 

Standards. In Order No. 693 the 

Commission approved Reliability 

Standard FAC–003–1—Transmission 

Vegetation Management Program.1

Reliability Standard FAC–003–1 applies 

to all transmission lines operated at 200 

kV and above, and to lower voltage lines 

designated as critical to the reliability of 

the Bulk-Power System.2

Certain landowners and other affected 

parties have raised concerns about 

changes in vegetation management 

practices implemented following 

adoption of FAC–003–1. The 

Commission is interested in obtaining a 

better understanding of the scope of any 

changes in vegetation management 

practices since FAC–003–1 was 

approved as mandatory and enforceable, 

and the extent to which such changes 

resulted from the requirements imposed 

under FAC–003–1. The Commission is 

also interested in obtaining a better 

understanding of the range of vegetation 

management practices used by 

transmission owners, and the reasons 

for selecting a given practice or 

methodology over alternatives. 

The agenda for this conference will be 

issued at a later date. Information on 

this event will be posted on the 

Calendar of Events on the Commission’s 

Web site, http://www.ferc.gov, prior to 

the event. The conference will be 

Webcast. Anyone with Internet access 

who desires to listen to this event can 

do so by navigating to http:// 

www.ferc.gov’s Calendar of Events and 

locating this event in the Calendar. The 

event will contain a link to the Webcast.

technical support for Webcasts and 

offers the option of listening to the 

meeting via phone-bridge for a fee. If
