    Communications with FERC

    FERC strongly encourages electronic filing of communications by all parties during the process. In order to do so, interested parties must have an eRegistration account with FERC. This can be obtained at FERC’s website www.ferc.gov.

    An alternative method to eFile is through the ‘Quick Comment’ system available via hyperlink on the FERC homepage. ‘Quick Comments’ do not require the user to have a subscription. However, comments are limited to 6,000 characters and all information must be public. Those wishing to use the ‘Quick Comment’ method can do so by submitting their name and e-mail address at the area shown on the FERC homepage. Detailed instructions on how to use the system will be sent by return e-mail.

    Honorable Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary
    Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
