Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Company, LLC; Notice of 
Application

    Take notice that on December 19, 2012, Transcontinental Gas Pipe 
Line Company, LLC (Transco), Post Office Box 1396, Houston, Texas 
77251, filed in the above referenced docket an application pursuant to 
section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) for authorization to 
construct, install, own, operate and maintain its Virginia Southside 
Expansion Project (Project), an incremental expansion of Transco's 
existing pipeline system in its southern market area. Specifically, the 
Project involves the construction and operation of 91 miles of new 
pipeline facilities along Transco's existing South Virginia Lateral A 
and approximately 7 miles of Greenfield pipeline facilities; a new 
compressor station with two 10,915 horsepower (ISO) gas turbine-driven

ground and underground facilities. Further, the Project will provide 
270,000 dekatherms per day (Dth/d) of incremental firm transportation 
service to Virginia Power Services Energy Corp., Inc. and Piedmont 
Natural Gas Company, Inc. Transco estimates that the proposed project 
will cost approximately $275 million, net of the Grant Transco expects 
to receive from the Virginia Tobacco Indemnification and Community 
Revitalization Commission. Finally, Transco proposes to place the 
Project facilities into service on September 1, 2015, all as more fully 
set forth in the application which is on file with the Commission and 
open to public inspection. The filing is available for review at the 
Commission in the Public Reference Room or may be viewed on the 
Commission's Web site at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary''

    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of 
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by 
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or 
before the comment date stated below file with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., Washington, DC 20426, a 
motion to intervene 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). A person 
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by 
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all 
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must 
submit 7 copies of filings made in the proceeding with the Commission 
and must mail a copy to the applicant and to every other party. Only 
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders 
in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have 
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with 
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and 
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project. 
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the 
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will 
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's 
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project 
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly 
involved in the protest.
    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 commentors 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 commentors will not be required to serve copies of filed 
documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commentors will 
not receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or issued by 
the Commission (except for the mailing of 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 7 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 
Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. There is an ``eSubscription'' 
link on the Web site that enables subscribers to receive email 
notification when a document is added to a subscribed docket(s). For 
assistance with any FERC Online service, please email 
FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov, or call (866) 208-3676 (toll free). For 
TTY, call (202) 502-8659.
