Transco's system. The estimated cost of the project is $471.9 million, 
all as more fully set forth in the application which is on file with 
the Commission and open to public inspection. This filing may also be 
viewed on the Commission's Web site at http://www.ferc.gov using the

digits, in the docket number field to access the document. For 
assistance, call (202) 502-8659 or TTY, (202) 208-3676.
    Any questions regarding this application should be directed to 
Ingrid Germany, Regulatory Analyst, Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line 
Company, LLC, Post Office Box 1396, Houston, TX 77251, by phone: (713) 
215-4015 or email: Ingrid.germany@williams.com. In addition, Transco 
has established a toll-free phone number 1-866-455-9103 so that parties 
can call with questions about the Project and an email support address 
pipelineexpansion@williams.com.
    On April 11, 2014 (CHECK THE DATE), the Commission staff granted 
the Transco's request to utilize the Pre-Filing Process and assigned 
Docket No. PF14-10-000 to staff activities involved the Dalton 
Expansion Project. Now as of filing the March 19, 2015 application, the 
Pre-Filing Process for this project has ended. From this time forward, 
this proceeding will be conducted in Docket No. CP15-117-000, as noted 
in the caption of this Notice.
    Pursuant to section 157.9 of the Commission's rules, 18 CFR 157.9, 
within 90 days of this Notice, the Commission staff will 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 environmental assessment (EA) for this proposal. 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 below listed comment date, file with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, a 
motion to intervene in accordance

[[Page 19313]]

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 with the 
Commission and must mail a copy to the applicant and to every other 
party in the proceeding. 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.
    Motions to intervene, protests and comments 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: April 23, 2015.

    Dated: April 2, 2015.

Secretary.
