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 on the Commission's Web site under the “e-Filing” link. *Comment Date:* December 9, 2005. Magalie R. Salas, Secretary. [FR Doc.

E5-6500 Filed 11-23-05; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 6717-01-P DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Federal Energy Regulatory Commission [Docket No. CP06-20-000] Unocal Windy Hill Gas Storage, LLC; Notice of Intent To Prepare an Environmental Assessment for the Proposed Windy Hill Gas Storage Project and Request for Comments on Environmental Issues November 18, 2005. The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or Commission) will prepare an environmental assessment
(EA)that will discuss the environmental impacts of the Windy Hill Gas Storage Project involving construction and operation of facilities by Unocal Windy Hill Gas Storage, LLC (Unocal) in Morgan County, Colorado. These facilities would consist of about 14.1 miles of 16-inch-diameter pipeline, a 14,200-horsepower
(hp)compressor station, four water supply wells, a solution mining facility, a brine disposal facility, six groundwater monitoring wells, four gas storage caverns, a gas dehydration facility, and electric utilities. This EA will be used by the Commission in its decisionmaking process to determine whether the project is in the public convenience and necessity. If you are a landowner receiving this notice, you may be contacted by a Unocal representative about the acquisition of an easement to construct, operate, and maintain the proposed facilities. Unocal would seek to negotiate a mutually acceptable agreement. However, if the project is approved by the Commission, that approval conveys with it the right of eminent domain. Therefore, if easement negotiations fail to produce an agreement, Unocal could initiate condemnation proceedings in accordance with State law. A fact sheet prepared by the FERC entitled “An Interstate Natural Gas Facility on My Land? What Do I Need To Know?” was attached to the project notice that Unocal provided to landowners. This fact sheet addresses a number of typically asked questions, including the use of eminent domain and how to participate in the Commission's proceedings. It is available for viewing on the FERC Internet Web site ( *http://www.ferc.gov* ). Summary of the Proposed Project Unocal wants to provide up to 6 billion cubic feet of working gas storage capacity and transportation to customers, with a maximum injection rate of 135 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d), and a maximum withdrawal rate of 400 MMcf/d. Unocal seeks authority to construct and operate in Morgan County, Colorado: Phase I Facilities
(2006)• Two solution-mined gas storage salt caverns (4-17S and 5-17S); • Four water supply wells; • Four 400-horsepower
(hp)pumps for the four water supply wells; • Two 800-hp booster pumps for injection of water for cavern development; • Two 3,000-gallon diesel tanks for cavern development; • Three 1,500-barrel
(bbl)fiberglass skim tanks to separate diesel oil from brine solution; • One 210-bbl steel tank for holding recovered diesel oil; • A 125- by 30-foot mining pump building and electrical control room; • A 178- by 178-foot brine disposal retention pond; • Four brine disposal wells; • Two 300-hp brine disposal pumps, including two 1,000-hp pumps if needed; • A 1,000-bbl fiberglass feed-water suction tank for the brine disposal pumps; • Six shallow groundwater monitoring wells; • A dehydration facility consisting of three 1.5-million British thermal unit triethylene glycol dehydrators for drying out the caverns; • A compressor station consisting of four 3,550-hp compressors driven by natural gas-fired reciprocating engines, totaling 14,200 hp; • An inlet scrubber for liquid removal from in-coming gas; • A gas cooler to cool the gas leaving the compressor station; • A 1.75-mile extension from the existing Morgan County Rural Electric Association's 12.47 kilovolt power line; • About 4.4 miles of permanent access roads; • A 20-foot widening of about 0.7 mile of the existing County Road Q; and • Two 60-foot-wide all-weather gravel roads totaling 0.41 mile. Phase II Facilities
(2008)• Two additional solution-mined gas storage salt caverns (6-17S and 7-17S). The location of the project facilities is shown in Appendix 1. 1 1 The appendices referenced in this notice are not being printed in the **Federal Register** . Copies of all appendices, other than Appendix 1 (maps), are available on the Commission's Web site at the “eLibrary” link or from the Commission's Public Reference Room, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, or call
(202)502-8371. For instructions on connecting to eLibrary refer to the last page of this notice. Copies of the appendices were sent to all those receiving this notice in the mail. Land Requirements for Construction Construction of the proposed facilities would require about 201.7 acres of land. Following construction, about 119.6 acres would be maintained as new aboveground facility sites and permanent rights-of-way. The remaining 82.1 acres of land would be restored and allowed to revert to its former use. The EA Process The National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA)requires the Commission to take into account the environmental impacts that could result from an action whenever it considers the issuance of a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity. NEPA also requires us to discover and address concerns the public may have about proposals. This process is referred to as “scoping”. The main goal of the scoping process is to focus the analysis in the EA on the important environmental issues. By this Notice of Intent, the Commission staff requests public comments on the scope of the issues to address in the EA. All comments received are considered during the preparation of the EA. State and local government representatives are encouraged to notify their constituents of this proposed action and encourage them to comment on their areas of concern. In the EA we 2 will discuss impacts that could occur as a result of the construction and operation of the proposed project under these general headings: 2 “We”, “us”, and “our” refer to the environmental staff of the Office of Energy Projects (OEP). • Geology and soils; • Land use; • Water resources, fisheries, and wetlands; • Cultural resources; • Vegetation and wildlife; • Air quality and noise; • Endangered and threatened species; • Public safety. We will also evaluate possible alternatives to the proposed project or portions of the project, and make recommendations on how to lessen or avoid impacts on the various resource areas. Our independent analysis of the issues will be in the EA. Depending on the comments received during the scoping process, the EA may be published and mailed to Federal, State, and local agencies, public interest groups, interested individuals, affected landowners, newspapers, libraries, and the Commission's official service list for this proceeding. A comment period will be allotted for review if the EA is published. We will consider all comments on the EA before we make our recommendations to the Commission. To ensure your comments are considered, please carefully follow the instructions in the public participation section below. Public Participation You can make a difference by providing us with your specific comments or concerns about the project. By becoming a commentor, your concerns will be addressed in the EA and considered by the Commission. You should focus on the potential environmental effects of the proposal, alternatives to the proposal (including alternative routes), and measures to avoid or lessen environmental impact. The more specific your comments, the more useful they will be. Please carefully follow these instructions to ensure that your comments are received in time and properly recorded: • Send an original and two copies of your letter to: Magalie R. Salas, Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First St., NE., Room 1A, Washington, DC 20426. • Label one copy of the comments for the attention of Gas Branch 3. • Reference Docket No. CP06-20-000. • Mail your comments so that they will be received in Washington, DC on or before December 23, 2005. The Commission strongly encourages electronic filing of any comments or interventions or protests to this proceeding. See 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web site at *http://www.ferc.gov* under the “e-Filing” link and the link to the User's Guide. Before you can file comments you will need to create a free account which can be created on-line. We may mail the EA for comment. If you are interested in receiving it, please return the Information Request (Appendix 3). If you do not return the Information Request, you will be taken off the mailing list. Becoming an Intervenor In addition to involvement in the EA scoping process, you may want to become an official party to the proceeding, or “intervenor”. To become an intervenor you must file a motion to intervene according to Rule 214 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214). Intervenors have the right to seek rehearing of the Commission's decision. Motions to Intervene should be electronically submitted using the Commission's eFiling system at *http://www.ferc.gov* . Persons without Internet access should send an original and 14 copies of their motion to the Secretary of the Commission at the address indicated previously. Persons filing Motions to Intervene on or before the comment deadline indicated above must send a copy of the motion to the Applicant. All filings, including late interventions, submitted after the comment deadline must be served on the Applicant and all other intervenors identified on the Commission's service list for this proceeding. Persons on the service list with e-mail addresses may be served electronically; others must be served a hard copy of the filing. Affected landowners and parties with environmental concerns may be granted intervenor status upon showing good cause by stating that they have a clear and direct interest in this proceeding which would not be adequately represented by any other parties. You do not need intervenor status to have your environmental comments considered. Environmental Mailing List An effort is being made to send this notice to all individuals, organizations, and government entities interested in and/or potentially affected by the proposed project. This includes all landowners who are potential right-of-way grantors, whose property may be used temporarily for project purposes, or who own homes within distances defined in the Commission's regulations of certain aboveground facilities. By this notice we are also asking governmental agencies, especially those in Appendix 2, to express their interest in becoming cooperating agencies for the preparation of the EA.

(licensee) proposes to amend the license for the Lake Dorothy Hydroelectric Project to replace the proposed lake tap at Bart Lake with a rock fill diversion dam and outlet works. According to the licensee the geology of Bart Lake will not support the lake tap and that the natural debris dam that contains the lake is subject to periodic failure and cannot be relied upon for constant lake levels. In a supplemental October 21, 2005, filing the licensee also proposes to relocate the powerhouse and the substation. The license calls for the powerhouse and substation to be built on a beach fill site. According to the licensee, a geotechnical investigation determined that the beach fill site would not be stable in an earthquake, so the licensee proposes relocating the structures to separate rock benches upstream of the beach fill site. The licensee states that there will be no additional environmental impacts due to these revisions, and that the project operation would be unchanged. l. *Locations of Applications:* A copy of the application is available for inspection and reproduction at the Commission in the Public Reference Room, located at 888 First Street, NE., Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426, or by calling

E5-6504 Filed 11-23-05; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 6717-01-P ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY [FRL-8001-9; NV-TV-001] Clean Air Act Operating Permit Program; Petition for Objection to State Operating Permit for El Dorado Energy, LLC in Clark County, NV AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency, (EPA). ACTION: Notice of final order on petition to object to state operating permit. SUMMARY: This notice announces that the EPA Administrator has responded to a citizen petition requesting that EPA object to an operating permit issued by the Clark County Department of Air Quality and Environmental Management (DAQEM). The Administrator has denied in full a petition submitted by Robert Hall requesting that the Administrator object to the state operating permit issued to El Dorado Energy in Boulder City, Nevada. Pursuant to section 505(b)(2) of the Clean Air Act (Act), the petitioner may seek judicial review of any portion of the petition which EPA denied in the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Any petitions for review shall be filed within 60 days from the date this notice appears in the **Federal Register** , pursuant to section 307 of the Act. ADDRESSES: Copies of the final order, petition, and other supporting information are available at the Environmental Protection Agency, Region IX, AIr Division, 75 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, CA 94105. The final order is also available electronically at: *http://www.epa.gov/region07/programs/artd/air/title5/petitiondb/petitions/el_dorado_decision 2003.pdf* FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Gerardo Rios, Chief, Air Permits Office, EPA Region IX, telephone
(415)972-3964, e-mail *r9airpermits@epa.gov.* SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA approves state and local permitting authorities to administer the operating permit program set forth in title V of the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7661-7661f. DAQEM administers a fully approved title V operating permit program. The Clean Air Act affords EPA the opportunity for a 45-day period to review, and object to as appropriate, operating permits proposed by permitting authorities. Section 505(b)(2) of the act authorizes any person to petition the EPA Administrator within 60 days after the expiration of this review period to object to a state operating permit if EPA has not done so. Petitions must be based on objections to the permit that were raised with reasonable specificity during the public comment period provided by the state, unless the petitioner demonstrates that it was impracticable to raise these issues during the comment period or the grounds for the issues arose after this period. DAQEM submitted the proposed permit to EPA on June 3, 2003. EPA received the petition to object to the permit on August 29, 2003, prior to the deadline for section 505(b)(2) petitions. On September 22, 2005, the Administrator issued an order denying in full the petition submitted by Robert Hall. The order explains the reasons behind EPA's decisions to grant or deny each issue. Dated: November 10, 2005. Laura Yoshii, Acting Regional Administrator, Region 9. [FR Doc. 05-23231 Filed 11-25-05; 8:45 am]
