Notice of Pre-Recorded Workshop: ``Fundamentals of Intervention 
in FERC Matters''; Office of Public Participation Fundamentals for 
Participating in FERC Matters

    Office of Public Participation (OPP) staff will release an 
educational video on October 25, 2023, in the above-referenced 
proceedings. The video, titled ``FERC Intervention: Powering Up Your 
Participation'' will explain how and why a member of the public may 
choose to intervene in a Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) 
proceeding. Staff will address common questions about filing an 
intervention at FERC.
    The conversation will cover intervening in energy infrastructure 
projects (natural gas pipelines, liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals, 
or hydroelectric dams) proceedings, and in electric rates proceedings. 
OPP directly helps constituents to navigate FERC proceedings by 
explaining what an intervention is and how to intervene in the correct 
docket. Intervention is the procedural pathway to becoming a party in a 
proceeding at FERC.
    Further questions which will be addressed include: What does it 
mean to file an intervention in a docket? Is that the same as filing a 
comment? Does that make me a party to a case, and what does becoming a 
party to a case mean? Is a lawyer required? Are there examples or 
templates? What should I know before deciding to intervene?
    OPP wants to hear from you. What questions do you have? What has 
been your experience intervening, commenting, or otherwise navigating a 
FERC proceeding?
    The video will be posted on FERC's YouTube channel on Office of 
Public Participation's playlist. It will include captioning in English 
and Spanish and will be compliant with section 508 of the 
Rehabilitation Act of 1973. For accessibility accommodations, please 
send an email to [email protected] or call toll free 1-866-208-
3372 (voice) or 202-502-8659 (TTY) or send a FAX to 202-208-2106 with 
the required accommodations.
    Please file your questions or comments in the docket on or before 
Wednesday September 20, 2023. If you need help with filing or have any 
other questions, feel free to reach out to Matthew Rolnick of the 
Commission's Office of Public Participation at [email protected] 
or [email protected].

    Dated: August 25, 2023.
Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
