    Any questions regarding this application should be directed to Carl
M. Fink, Associate General Counsel, North Baja Pipeline, LLC, 1400 SW.
Fifth Avenue, Suite 900, Portland, Oregon, 97201 at (503) 833-4256 or 
Carl_Fink@TransCanada.com.
    The facilities associated with the BEI Lateral are described in the
draft environmental impact statement (EIS) for the North Baja Pipeline
Expansion Project that was issued on September 22, 2006 for public
comment. Environmental comments received on this amendment will be
combined with those received on the draft EIS and will be addressed in
the final EIS prepared for the North Baja Pipeline Expansion Project.
The Commission staff will determine if this amendment will have an
effect on the schedule for the environmental review of this project. If
necessary, a revised Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review will
be issued within 90 days of this Notice.
    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 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.
    Comments, 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

    Comment Date: February 28, 2007.

Secretary.
