October 5, 2006.

Take notice that on August 23, 2006, Enbridge Pipelines (NE Texas Liquids) L.P. (Enbridge) filed a Petition for Temporary Waiver of Filing and Reporting Requirements of the Interstate Commerce Act (ICA) Section 6 and Section 20 applicable to interstate common carrier pipelines for its new liquids pipeline, the Hide Town Line. Enbridge states that it anticipates that it will complete the construction and testing of both the Hide Town Plant and the Hide Town Line no later than mid-October 2006. Enbridge requests approval to permit use of the Hide Town Line by November 1, 2006.

Enbridge states that it is in the process of constructing a new natural gas processing plant (the Hide Town Plant) and a new, dedicated liquids pipeline to transport the products from the Hide Town Plant to downstream, interstate markets. All of the throughput moved on the pipeline will be owned by an Enbridge affiliate. There will not be any intermediate points on the pipeline, nor has any third-party expressed an interest in becoming a shipper on the pipeline.
