LP (Texas Eastern), P.O. Box 1642, Houston, Texas 77251, filed a prior 
notice request pursuant to sections 157.205 and 157.208 of the

cost of the Skippack Pike Relocation Project is estimated to be 
approximately $12,600,000, all as more fully set forth in the 
application which is on file with the Commission and open to public 
inspection.

214 of the Commission's Procedural Rules (18 CFR 385.214) a motion to 
intervene or notice of intervention and pursuant to section 157.205 of 
the regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.205), a protest to the

milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's issuance of 
the final environmental impact statement (FEIS) or EA for this 
proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission's public record for

the timing for the completion of all necessary reviews, and the 
subsequent need to complete all federal authorizations within 90 days

documents filed by other parties or issued by the Commission (except

final order.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments, 
protests and interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link
