[Docket Nos. CP05-130-000; CP05-132-000; CP05-395-000; CP06-26-000;

Dominion Cove Point LNG, L.P., Dominion Cove Point LNG, L.P.,
Dominion Cove Point LNG, L.P., Dominion Transmission, Inc.; Notice of
Procedural Conference and Order on Late Interventions

February 2, 2006.
    The Commission has received a number of pleadings in this
proceeding regarding the quality of the natural gas delivered, and
proposed to be delivered, to Washington Gas Light Company (WGL), from
the liquefied natural gas (LNG) import terminal owned and operated by
Dominion Cove Point LNG, LP (Cove Point), and the potential effects of
the proposed expansion and modification of Cove Point's LNG import
terminal on certain facilities owned by WGL.\1\ The Commission staff
has determined that discussing with the parties the issues raised in
these various pleadings would assist staff in evaluating these matters.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ A list of pleadings that relate to these gas quality issues
is in the Appendix to this Notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Accordingly, a Procedural Conference will be held at the
Commission's offices in Washington, DC, on February 22, 2006,
commencing at 10 a.m., in order that the parties and the Commission
Staff can discuss the pleadings filed and the procedural options for
continued timely processing of Cove Point's requests for expansion and
modification of its LNG import terminal.
    Participants at the conference should come prepared to discuss the
relationship, if any, between Cove Point's proposal to expand and
modify its LNG import terminal in the captioned proceedings and the
problems on WGL's system which WGL alleges are associated with the
quality of natural gas delivered from the Cove Point import terminal.
As part of this discussion, participants should be prepared to provide
information which shows that the alleged impacts on WGL's ability to
provide safe and reliable services to its customers are either
substantially related to the introduction of natural gas from Cove
Point's LNG import terminal into Cove Point's pipeline and
interconnecting pipelines and delivered to WGL, or are substantially
related to other factors and that such problems have occurred prior to
the introduction of LNG into Cove Point's pipeline and interconnecting
pipelines.
    The Commission, pursuant to Rule 214(d)(3)(i) of the Commission's
Rules of Practice and Procedure, hereby grants the motions to intervene
out of time listed in the Appendix to this Notice for the limited
purpose of participating in the Procedural Conference. The Commission
reserves the right to grant or deny further party status of any late
intervenor, as appropriate.
