Take notice that on November 16,

2005, Dominion Cove Point LNG, LP

(Cove Point LNG) filed an application in

Docket No. CP06–26–000, pursuant to

section 3 of the Natural Gas Act, for

authority to construct, install, own,

operate and maintain certain facilities at

the Cove Point LNG import terminal at

Cove Point, Maryland (Air Separation

Unit Project). The details of this

proposal are more fully set forth in the

application that is on file with the

Commission and open to public

inspection. The filing may also be

viewed on the Web at http://

www.ferc.gov using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link.

Enter the docket number excluding the

last three digits in the docket number

field to access the document. For

assistance, please contact FERC Online

Support at

FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or toll

free at (866) 208–3676, or TTY, contact

(202) 502–8659.

Any questions regarding this

application should be directed to Anne

E. Bomar, Managing Director,

Transmission, Rates and Regulation,

Dominion Resources, Inc., 120 Tredegar

Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219, or by

phone at (804) 819–2134.

Cove Point LNG says that the Air

Separation Unit Project is designed to

add two air separation units, a liquid

nitrogen storage tank, an electric

generation unit, and appurtenant

facilities at the Cove Point LNG import

terminal. This project will increase Cove

Point LNG’s ability to inject nitrogen

into the vaporized liquefied natural gas

as necessary to meet the tariff

requirements for gas quality contained

in the Cove Point LNG’s tariff. Cove

Point LNG requests that the Commission

grant the requested authorization at the

earliest practicable date, in order to

ensure an in-service date of January

2008.

Cove Point LNG says that the facilities

proposed in the Cove Point Air

PO 00000

Frm 00029

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

Separation Unit Project will also

enhance the reliability of service at the

terminal and provide the Rate Schedule

LTD–1 customers with more flexibility

to acquire and schedule cargoes of LNG

from a wider variety of supply sources.

Cove Point LNG says that the Air

Separation Unit Project also will not

result in any change to the gas quality

specifications contained in Cove Point’s

tariff, including the BTU level and

nitrogen content specified in those

provisions.

Cove Point LNG says that it intends to

make a subsequent, limited Natural Gas

Act Section 4 filing to adjust the

currently effective LTD–1 settlement

rates to reflect the costs of the Air

Separation Unit Project. Further, Cove

Point LNG does not seek Commission

approval of the Air Separation Unit

Project rates in the instant proceeding;

however, it requests that the

Commission find in this proceeding

that: (1) The proposed facilities are

prudently designed and appropriately

sized to provide the requested nitrogen

injection capacity; (2) the costs of the

proposed facilities, about $ 63 million,

are reasonable; and (3) the proposed rate

treatment for the costs of the Air

Separation Unit Project as shown on

Exhibit Z is reasonable. Cove Point LNG

is proposing an Air Separation Unit

Project surcharge in the LTD rate

schedules with a reservation charge of $

1.5990 per Dth in the LTD–1 Rate

Schedule and a maximum commodity

charge of $ 0.0526 per Dth in the LTD–

2 Rate Schedule.

On October 7, 2005, the Commission

issued new rules which generally

require that projects involving liquefied

natural gas terminals follow mandatory

procedures requiring prospective

applicants to begin the Commission’s

pre-filing review process at least six

months prior to filing an application for

any siting or construction

authorizations. (See Order No. 665, new

rules at 18 CFR 157.21) However, based

on an October 25, 2005 request by Cove

Point LNG under section 157.21(e)(2) of

the new rules, the Director of the

Commission’s Office of Energy Projects

made a finding and determination on

November 14, 2005, that the pre-filing

review process would not apply to Cove

Point LNG’s Air Separation Unit Project.

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,

file with the Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission, 888 First Street, NE.,

intervene in accordance with the
