This just came through from FERC:






UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
PennEast Pipeline Company, LLC Docket No. PF15-1-000

NOTICE OF EXTENSION OF COMMENT PERIOD AND
CLARIFICATION OF LOCATION OF PUBLIC SCOPING MEETINGS
FOR THE
PENNEAST PIPELINE PROJECT

(January 21, 2015)

On January 13, 2015, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) issued a Notice of Intent to Prepare an Environmental Impact Statement for
the Planned PennEast Pipeline Project, Requests for Comments on Environmental Issues,
and Notice of Public Scoping Meetings. The notice solicited comments on the potential
environmental impacts of the planned project and announced the time and location of five
public scoping meetings being held for the environmental proceeding. The close of the
public comment period in that notice is listed as February 12, 2015.

Due to a limited printing delay in the mailing of the notice, we are extending the
comment period. Please note that the scoping period will now close on February 27,
2015.

In addition to extending the scoping period, the Commission staff has provided
further clarification on its scoping meeting locations. The table below now lists the name
of the building or hall at each meeting location. Please note that signage will be placed
upon the entry of the meeting venues for your assistance.
