Southern LNG, Inc.; Elba Express Company, L.L.C.; Southern
Natural Gas Company; Notice of Applications
October 10, 2006.
Take notice that on September 29, 2006, Southern LNG, Inc. (SLNG),
Elba Express Company, L.L.C. (EEC), and Southern Natural Gas Company
(SNG), Post Office Box 2563, Birmingham, Alabama 35202-2563,
concurrently filed related applications under sections 3 and 7 of the
Natural Gas Act (NGA) and Parts 153,157, 284 and 380 of the
Commission's regulations for authorizations necessary to expand SLNG's
liquefied natural gas (LNG) import terminal in Georgia and to
construct, operate and acquire facilities to move re-vaporized LNG to
downstream markets in the United States. The projects are collectively
known as the Elba III Project, all as more fully set forth in the
application which is on file with the Commission and open for public
inspection. These filings are 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 ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket

SLNG seeks authorization under section 3 of the NGA to expand its
existing LNG import terminal on Elba Island in Chatham County, Georgia
in two phases by: (i) Constructing two new LNG storage tanks, each
having a storage capacity equivalent to 4.22 Bcf, (ii) constructing
additional facilities to provide 900 MMcf per day of vaporization
capacity at the end of phase two, and (iii) modifying marine facilities
to accommodate larger LNG tankers and speed simultaneous unloading of
two LNG tankers. SLNG proposes to provide service from the expansion
under proposed Rate Schedule LNG-3 and also seeks authority to provide
service under negotiated rates. Finally, SLNG seeks authority under
section 7(b) of the NGA to abandon an unutilized dock.
EEC requests authority under section 7(c) of the NGA to: (i)
Acquire an undivided interest in SNG's Twin 30s pipelines which extend
from SLNG's Elba Island terminal to SNG's pipeline system in Port
Wentworth, Georgia; (ii) construct and operate a new 42-inch and 36-
inch diameter, approximately 189 mile interstate pipeline extending
from Port Wentworth through Effingham, Screven, Jenkins, Burke,
Jefferson, Glascock, Warren, McDuffie, Wilkes, and Elbert Counties,
Georgia to interconnections with Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line
Corporation (Transco) in Hart County, Georgia and Anderson County,
South Carolina; and to construct and operate a 10,000 horsepower
compressor station on the new line in Jenkins County. Upon installation
of the compression the pipeline will be able to provide up to 1,175
MMcf per day of transportation to the Transco interconnections. EEC
also requests blanket construction and
[[Page 61041]]
transportation certificates pursuant to Parts 157 and 284 of the
Commission's regulations, respectively, and approval of its pro forma
transportation tariff.
SNG seeks authority to transfer pursuant to section 7(b) of the NGA
an undivided interest in its Twin 30s pipelines to EEC and seeks
authority under section 7(c) to acquire an undivided interest in a
portion of the pipeline proposed by EEC.

On February 1, 2006, the Commission granted SNG's request to
utilize the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Pre-Filing Process
and assigned Docket No. PF06-14-000 to staff activities involving the
Elba III Project. Now, as of the filing of these applications on
September 29, 2006, the NEPA Pre-Filing Process for this project has
ended. From this time forward, the Elba III Project proceeding will be
conducted in the docket numbers listed above in the caption 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 below listed comment date, 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.
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: October 31, 2006.
Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
