[Docket No. CP12-20-000]
Dominion Transmission, Inc.; Notice of Application
Take notice that on November 21, 2011, Dominion Transmission, Inc.
(DTI), 120 Tredegar Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219 filed an
application in Docket No. CP12-20-000 pursuant to Section 7(c) of the
Natural Gas Act (NGA) and Part 157 of the Commission's Regulations, for
a certificate of public convenience and necessity to construct and
operate its Sabinsville to Morrrisville Project which consists of 3.56
miles of new 24-inch-diameter pipeline (TL-610) as well as various
aboveground and buried piping, valves and appurtenances at its
Sabinsville Station, all in Tioga County, Pennsylvania. DTI states that
its proposal is intended to accommodate Tennessee Gas Pipeline
Company's (Tennessee's) request to move its primary receipt point from
North Sheldon, New York to Sabinsville, Pennsylvania. DTI states that
it does not propose to provide any new delivery capacity but would
continue to transport Tennessee's contracted 92,000 Dt/d of existing
firm transportation service to Tennessee through the proposed
facilities and existing downstream facilities to the new delivery point
at Morrisville. The total project cost is estimated to be
$16,759,375.00. A more detailed description of the project is available
in the application which is on file with the Commission and open for
public inspection.
This 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 ``e-Library'' link. Enter the docket number
excluding the last three digits in the docket number field to access
the document. For assistance, contact FERC at
[email protected] or call toll-free, (866) 208-3676, or for

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 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 EA.

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 14 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 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 commenters 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.
Protests and interventions may be filed electronically via the
Internet in lieu of paper; see, 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the
instructions on the Commission's Web site under the ``e-Filing'' link.
The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings.
Comment Date: December 27, 2011.
Dated: December 5, 2011.

Secretary.
