750 psig, referred to as the Line 20M-100 Cypress Field No. 2 Line MAOP Reduction
Project (Project). Line 20M-100 connects to and receives gas from TGP’s parallel
mainlines Line 100-1 and Line 100-3 and extends northward for approximately 1.9 miles
to a delivery point in Harris County, Texas, The Project will allow TGP to reduce the
MAOP of Line 20M-100 to the same operating pressure as its connected mainlines,
which will provide more operational efficiency by reducing future integrity management
and maintenance activities associated with Line 20M-100. The estimated cost for the
project is $0.0 as there is no construction involved, all as more fully set forth in the
request which is on file with the Commission and open to public inspection.

Protests

Pursuant to section 157.205 of the Commission’s regulations under the NGA,1 any
person2 or the Commission’s staff may file a protest to the request. If no protest is filed
within the time allowed or if a protest is filed and then withdrawn within 30 days after the
allowed time for filing a protest, 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 If a protest is filed and not withdrawn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 for
authorization will be considered by the Commission.

Protests must comply with the requirements specified in section 157.205(e) of the
Commission’s regulations,3 and must be submitted by the protest deadline, which is 5:00

entities. 18 CFR 385.102(d).
3 18 CFR 157.205(e).

CFR 157.205(e)(2)4 will not be considered protests by the Commission.5 A protest may
also serve as a motion to intervene so long as the protestor states it also seeks to be an
intervenor.

Interventions

Any person has the option to file a motion to intervene in this proceeding. Only
intervenors have the right to request rehearing of Commission orders issued in this
proceeding and to subsequently challenge the Commission’s orders in the U.S. Circuit
Courts of Appeal.

To intervene, you must submit a motion to intervene to the Commission in
accordance with Rule 214 of the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure6 and the
regulations under the NGA7 by the intervention deadline for the project, which is 5:00
pm Eastern Time on December 8, 2026. As described further in Rule 214, your motion
to intervene must state, to the extent known, your position regarding the proceeding, as
well as your interest in the proceeding. For an individual, this could include your status
as a landowner, ratepayer, resident of an impacted community, or recreationist. You do
not need to have property directly impacted by the project in order to intervene. For

All timely, unopposed motions to intervene are automatically granted by operation
of Rule 214(c)(1). Motions to intervene that are filed after the intervention deadline are
untimely and may be denied. Any late-filed motion to intervene must show good cause
for being late and must explain why the time limitation should be waived and provide
justification by reference to factors set forth in Rule 214(d) of the Commission’s Rules
and Regulations. A person obtaining party status will be placed on the service list
maintained by the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies (paper or
electronic) of all documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties.

considers all comments received about the project in determining the appropriate action
to be taken. To ensure that your comments are timely and properly recorded, please
submit your comments on or before 5:00 pm Eastern Time on December 8, 2026. The
filing of a comment alone will not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding.
To become a party, you must intervene in the proceeding.
