(248)205-7584 or *vmeier@glgt.com.* Great Lakes states that its St. Clair metering facilities have reached the end of their serviceable life. Great Lakes indicates that in lieu of replacement, Great Lakes requests authorization to utilize third party measurement data available from TransCanada PipeLines Ltd., downstream of the St. Clair Delivery Point. Great Lakes proposes to abandon the metering function at its St. Clair Delivery Point by removing the orifice plates and the differential pressure and temperature transmitters from the existing meter runs. Great Lakes maintains that the proposed abandonment would not affect service to any shipper at the St. Clair Point. Great Lakes contends that all customers receiving deliveries at the St. Clair Delivery Point have provided their written consent to the abandonment except one. Great Lakes avers that the customer not providing written consent has not indicated that it objects to the abandonment. Great Lakes, therefore, seeks a waiver to permit the abandonment notwithstanding the withholding of written consent by the one customer. Any person or the Commission's Staff may, within 45 days after the issuance of the instant notice by the Commission, file pursuant to Rule 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 Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act
(NGA)(18 CFR 157.205) a protest to the request. If no protest is filed within the time allowed therefore, the proposed activity shall be deemed to be authorized effective the day after the time allowed for protest. If a protest is filed and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a protest, the instant request shall be treated as an application for authorization pursuant to section 7 of the NGA. 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. The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings. Magalie R. Salas, Secretary.

Notice is hereby given that new docket prefixes “HC” and “PH” have been established for certain filings under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005. An “HC” docket prefix will be assigned to filings that, pursuant to 18 CFR 366.4(a), notify the Commission that a company meets the definition of a holding company. Thus, an “HC” docket prefix will be assigned to FERC-65 filings, “Notification of Holding Company Status.” A “PH” docket prefix will be assigned to filings that, pursuant to 18 CFR 366.4(b)(1), (c)(1), seek exemption from the requirements of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005, or waiver of the Commission's regulations under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005. Thus, a “PH” docket prefix will be assigned to FERC-65A filings, “Exemption Notification,” and to FERC-65B filings, “Waiver Notification.” Petitions for declaratory order made pursuant to 18 CFR 366.4(b)(2), (c)(2), however, will be assigned an “EL” docket prefix, as the Commission has traditionally done for petitions for declaratory orders under the Federal Power Act. The “HC” and “PH” docket prefix formats will be HCFY-NNN-000 and PHFY-NNN-000, where “FY” is the fiscal year in which the proceeding commenced, and “NNN” is a sequential number. For “HC” filings, a single docket number will be assigned to all Notification of Holding Company Status filings made within a fiscal year. For example, “HC06-1-000” will be assigned to all such filings made in fiscal year 2006; “HC07-1-000” to all such filings made in fiscal year 2007. “PH” filings, however, will be docketed individually.

On the Submission Description screen, edit the description by replacing “Production of Document” with “Notification of Holding Company Status.” If you are unable to file electronically, you must submit an original and 14 paper copies of the filing to the address below. It is not necessary to include a form of notice for the Federal Register. FERC-65A, Exemption Notification, and FERC-65B, Waiver Notification These filings must be submitted on paper at this time.

SUMMARY: Through this action, EPA is correcting the Notice published in the **Federal Register** on December 20, 2005 (70 FR 75458). Specifically, EPA is clarifying that the OMB Control Number for this Information Collection Activity is 2060-0498 and not 2060-0948. All other components of the December 20, 2005 Notice remain the same. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Cindy Axinn Newberg, Stratospheric Protection Division, Office of Atmospheric Programs, Office of Air and Radiation, Mail Code 6205J, Environmental Protection Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania Ave., NW., Washington, DC 20460; telephone number: 202-343-9729 and e-mail address: *newberg.cindy@epa.gov* . SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Although the Notice was published in the **Federal Register** on December 20, 2005 (70 FR 75458) with the correct EPA ICR Number (2014.03), the OMB Control Number in the title and in the Notice itself was incorrect. Therefore, EPA is clarifying that the OMB Control Number is 2060-0498 and not 2060-0948. Need for Correction As published, the Notice contains errors which may prove to be misleading and need to be corrected.
