[Docket No. EL12-7-000]

Hess Corporation v. PJM Interconnection, L.L.C.; Notice of 
Petition for Declaratory Order and Complaint

    Take notice that on October 26, 2011, pursuant to Rules 207(a)(2) 
and 212 of the Rules of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's 
(Commission) Rules of Practice and Procedures, 18 CFR 385.207(a)(2) and 
385.212, Hess Corporation (Complainant) filed a Petition for 
Declaratory Order requesting that the Commission determine that PJM 
Interconnection, L.L.C.'s (Respondent) current Open Access Transmission 
Tariff (OATT) permits the Respondent to make a minor adjustment to two 
phase angle regulators (PAR) owned by Public Service Electric and Gas 
Company for purposes of modeling Complainant's pending interconnection 
request for a proposed 625 MW gas-fired electric generating facility to 
be located in Newark, New Jersey. In the alternative, pursuant to 
section 206 of the Federal Power Act, 16 U.S.C. 824e and Rule 206 of 
the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.206, 
Complainant filed a formal complaint, requesting that the Commission 
revise the Respondent's Tariff and/or associated Manuals as necessary 
to require the Complainant to adjust PARs to accommodate generator 
interconnections, such as the interconnection of the Newark Energy 
Center, when such adjustment would not harm the reliability of the 
Respondent's system or impose costs on other customers.
    The Complainant certifies that copies of the complaint were served 
on the contacts for the Respondent as listed on the Commission's list 
of Corporate Officials.
    Any person desiring 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. The Respondent's 
answer and all interventions, or protests must be filed on or before 
the comment date. The Respondent's answer, motions to intervene, and 
protests must be served on the Complainants.
    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 14 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
