Texas Eastern seeks authorization to replace certain sections of three different pipelines located in Madison County, Kentucky to accommodate a U. S. Department of Transportation (DOT) required pipeline class change, all as more fully set forth in the application, which is open to the public for inspection. The filing may also be viewed on the Web at                     *http://www.ferc.gov*                     using the “eLibrary” link.

For assistance, contact FERC at                     *FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov*                     or call toll-free, (866) 208-3676 or TTY, (202) 502-8659.                

                    Any questions regarding this application should be directed Lisa A. Connolly, General Manager, Rates & Certificates, Texas Eastern Transmission, LP, P.O. Box 1642, Houston, Texas 77251-1642, or phone (713) 627-4102, or fax (713) 627-5947, or by email                     *laconnolly@spectraenergy.com.*

Specifically, Texas Eastern proposes to replace 2,960 feet of 30-inch diameter pipe on Line No. 10, 3,060 feet of 30-inch diameter pipe on Line No. 15, and 658 feet of 30-inch diameter pipe and 1,903 feet of 36-inch diameter pipe on Line No. 25 with new pipe to accommodate a DOT pipeline class change to Class 3 from Class 1 due to encroachment of new structures in the area of the applicable sections of pipeline. The project will allow Texas Eastern to continue the safe operation of its system and to comply with DOT pipeline class requirements.

Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 60 days after issuance of the instant notice by the Commission, file pursuant to Rule 214 of the Commission's Procedural Rules (18 CFR 385.214) a motion to intervene or notice of intervention and pursuant to Section 157.205 of the regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.205), a protest to the request. If no protest is filed within the time allowed therefore, the proposed activity shall be deemed to be authorized effective the day after the time allowed for filing a protest. If a protest is filed and not withdrawn within 30 days after the allowed time for filing a protest, the instant request shall be treated as an application for authorization pursuant to section 7 of the NGA.

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.

                    Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of this project should submit an original and two copies of their comments to the Secretary of the Commission. Environmental commenters will be placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list, will receive copies of the environmental documents, and will be notified of meetings associated with the Commission's environmental review process. Environmental commenters will not be required to serve copies of filed documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commenter will not receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or issued by the Commission (except for the mailing of                           ( print page 1409)                        environmental documents issued by the Commission) and will not have the right to seek court review of the Commission's final order.                

                    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments, 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 5 copies of the protest or intervention to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., Washington, DC 20426.                

Dated: December 31, 2014.

Kimberly D. Bose,

Secretary.
