Dear Sir/Madam:
With the growing demand for reliable energy sources with fewer emissions, Spectra Energy Corp
("Spectra Energy") recently began evaluating an interstate natural gas pipeline expansion project that will
increase energy supply diversity, security and reliability in the South Atlantic region. Spectra Energy is a
leading pipeline transporter of clean-burning natural gas and through our multiple interstate pipeline
companies we have been providing natural gas to local utility and electric generating facilities for almost
70 years.
Spectra Energy's efforts to develop a new natural gas transportation system in the region is in
response to growing market needs to provide firm natural gas transportation in the South Atlantic region
for power generation and local distribution company core load growth needs by the fourth quarter of
2018.
The purpose of this letter is to introduce the proposed Spectra Energy Pipeline Project to you and
we have enclosed a Fact Sheet that provides more detail about this proposal.
We believe this project will benefit the South Atlantic region by making available more natural gas
supply and the new pipeline transportation facilities necessary to support the needs of other regional
power generators and natural gas customers as well as addressing the growing demand for
environmentally friendly natural gas.
To help us refine our proposed pipeline route, our representatives have begun collecting and
evaluating information necessary to determine the pipeline path with the least overall impact while
balancing constructability concerns.

You are likely receiving this letter because your property may be within or very near the study
corridor being considered and for that reason we will soon send an additional letter to you related to our
survey needs and practices. These civil, environmental and cultural resources survey activities are required
to thoroughly evaluate a pipeline route. The surveys will be coordinated with the appropriate municipal
officials and performed in a minimal amount of time with the goal of little to no inconvenience to
landowners.
The proposed geographic area under evaluation includes portions of the states of Pennsylvania,
Maryland, West Virginia, Virginia and North Carolina. A map has been included that provides you with the
general study corridor under consideration.
We have begun meeting with your community leaders and elected officials about the Spectra
Energy Pipeline Project while continuing to evaluate and refine the proposed route. In addition, we soon
will be meeting with landowners, agencies and other stakeholders to discuss the project and to seek input
on the proposed routing for this expansion.
Please be assured that we are very early in the proposed project process and everyone will have
multiple opportunities to interact and engage with the project team, as well as participate in the
appropriate regulatory processes. Different companies take different approaches with engagement and
communications with the affected public. Spectra Energy takes a collaborative approach. We communicate
early and often about our project activities to build positive relationships and long-lasting partnerships
with all those we come in contact with.
If you have questions or would like additional information concerning our proposed Spectra Energy
Pipeline Project, please call our toll free number 1-844-847-5546. We would be pleased to address any or

Proposed Spectra Energy Pipeline Project: Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the proposed Spectra Energy interstate
pipeline project?
The Spectra Energy Pipeline Project is an interstate
natural gas pipeline system proposed in response to a
growing market need for natural gas transportation
services in the South Atlantic region for power
generation and local distribution systems' core load
growth needs starting in the fourth quarter of 2018. This
project would also enhance the availability and reliability
of natural gas supplies to the South Atlantic states.
2. Where will the proposed Spectra Energy Pipeline
Project be located?
The new natural gas pipeline study corridor under
review originates in Pennsylvania, extends through
Maryland, West Virginia, Virginia, and ends in North
Carolina. The proposed project will also include an
expansion of the pipeline capacity ofthe existing Texas
Eastern Transmission system in West Virginia and
Pennsylvania.
3. What is the "study corridor" for the proposed
Spectra Energy Pipeline Project?
Generally, study corridors are established along the
proposed route to determine the best possible locations
for the pipeline facilities and potential workspace areas.
The study corridors are typically 600 feet wide. However,
once our field evaluations are complete, the pipeline
corridor will be reduced to a much narrower width that
would be necessary to construct the pipeline. Typically,
this is approximately 100 feet.
4. What would be the proposed Spectra Energy
pipeline's capacity?
The proposed Spectra Energy pipeline will be capable of
transporting up to 1.1 billion cubic feet of natural gas per
day-enough to meet the needs of over 4 million
American homes annually.
s. What would be the estimated cost for the
proposed Spectra Energy Pipeline Project?
The preliminary estimates are in the range of $4 billion
dollars; however, this could change, depending on final
project scope.
6. When would the proposed Spectra Energy Pipeline
Project be in service?
In order to meet market interest, the project could begin
to deliver natural gas as early as the fourth quarter of
2018.
7. What stage is the proposed Spectra Energy
Pipeline Project in now, and what are the next
steps?
The proposed Spectra Energy Pipeline Project is in the
early development stage. Spectra Energy w~ll work with
communities along the proposed study corndor to
position the project to meet the schedule requirements.
These activities include engaging federal, state and local
officials to inform them of Spectra Energy's initial survey
work in the study corridor areas. Landowners who may be
involved will receive introductory letters and information
about initial survey plans in their area. The survey study
corridors will be approximately 600 feet wide, which
would allow future pipeline route refinements, as
necessary, to incorporate landowner, environmental and
construction-related concerns. Currently, Spectra Energy
anticipates survey work to commence in summer 2014.
Once our field evaluations are complete, the pipeline
corridor will be reduced to a much narrower width that
would be necessary to construct the pipeline. Typically,
this is approximately 100 feet.
8. Who authorizes the construction of interstate
pipelines and what kind of regulatory oversight
will the project development have?
Spectra Energy will work with the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC), the federal agency with
primary jurisdiction over U.S. interstate natural gas
pipeline projects, to obtain the necessary regulatory
authorization. The FERC process and the permitting
processes of other federal and state agencies will allow
interested stakeholders multiple opportunities to
comment on the proposed pipeline project.
The FERC exclusively authorizes the construction of new
interstate natural gas facilities. FERC is also the lead
federal agency responsible for conducting environmental
reviews of interstate natural gas projects, in compliance
with the National Environmental Policy Act. In addition to
its FERC certificate application, Spectra Energy will seek
review from numerous other federal agencies, including
the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service, and appropriate agencies of West Virginia,
Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina.
9. How will the proposed Spectra Energy Pipeline
Project benefit the South Atlantic states, including
Pennsylvania, Maryland, West Virginia, Virginia,
and North Carolina?
The proposed Spectra Energy Pipeline will increase
energy diversity, security and reliability to South Atlantic
markets.
In addition, the proposed Spectra Energy Pipeline Project
will create significant jobs during planning, construction
and development, as well as add capital investment and
tax base to all five states.
10. What are the safety measures for this project?
Spectra Energy is dedicated to the safe, reliable
operation of facilities and the protection of employees,
the public and the environment.
Natural gas pipeline operators monitor and control safety
in many ways and use many different tools. Collectively,
these tools make natural gas transmission pipelines one of
the safest forms of energy transportation. Our safety
programs are designed to prevent pipeline failures, detect
anomalies, perform repairs and often exceed regulatory
requirements.
Page 1 of2
The U.S. Department ofTransportation's (DOT) Pipeline
and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA)
oversees the safety of interstate natural gas pipelines
and mandates minimum requirements, from the design
and construction to testing, operations, maintenance
and emergency response. The new pipeline will operate
in strict accordance with all federal and state safety
requirements.
Spectra Energy will work closely with local public safety
officials to provide them with a thorough awareness of
our pipelines and pipeline safety.
Once the facilities are placed in service, we will
implement operations procedures designed to monitor
the pipeline 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and we
maintain the facilities per applicable federal and state
regulations.
11. Where will the facilities be located?
Though minimal in number, above ground facilities are
an important part of a mostly underground pipeline
transmission system. Compressor stations will be
strategically located along the route to push gas through
the pipeline.
Three new compressor stations will be constructed on
the existing Texas Eastern system in Marshall County,
West Virginia, Greene County, Pennsylvania, and
Somerset County, Pennsylvania. Additionally, two new
compressor stations will be constructed on the new
pipeline, one compressor station will be constructed in
louisa County, Virginia, and another in Franklin County,
North Carolina. Additionally, valves, regulators,
measurement equipment, communication towers and
other components that enhance pipeline safety and
performance may be seen along the route. These above-
ground facilities are strategically placed and will be
discussed with you should your property be affected.
12. What kind of input will affected stakeholders have
in anticipation of the proposed Spectra Energy
interstate pipeline project?
For
Spectra Energy will communicate with public officials,
permitting agencies and area stakeholders during the
initial development process and will maintain open lines
of communication throughout the project's
development. landowners and other stakeholders will
have multiple opportunities to provide input on the
project during the permitting process.
Spectra Energy will also send letters to property owners
whose properties may be initially involved to inform
them of the project and our need to perform surveys to
collect information about their properties.
later this year, Spectra Energy will host local public
meetings for area residents to learn more about the
project and ask questions, and we will provide advance
notification to make stakeholders aware of these
important events.

The project's experienced deve I opment team is
committed to a comprehensive consultation and
ongoing communications process with stakeholders to
develop a viable pipeline route that mitigates impacts to
landowners and the environment and meets or exceeds
customer needs, constructabil ity requirements and
safety regulations. This process involves evaluating
various routes and study corridors. Whenever possible,
Spectra Energy tries to locate the study corridors
adjacent to existing utility corridors-either electric
transmission lines or underground pipelines.
We will seek opportunities to discuss the project directly
with each landowner in small, face-to-face discussions.
The survey activities (engineering, environmental and
cultural resources) will assist Spectra Energy obtain the
necessary field data to further assess the pipeline
alignments and address individ uallandowner concerns.
These activities will be performed in a minimal amount
of time and should not inconvenience any landowner.
14. What is the estimated ~""'"' ...... nm<>•nt-:ol

project?
Spectra Energy is committed to protecting the
environment. Wherever possible, the new pipeline will
follow existing rights-of-way to substantially limit
environmental impacts and effects to landowners. These
development efforts are closely monitored by federal and
state environmental agencies, requiring a number of
permits, and we closely adhere to all applicable
environmental standards to ensure we minimize our
footprint.
Environmental aspects of the construction project are
regulated by FERC, which will review all plans and
conduct its own environmental study of the project.
15. What sort of local or regional benefits can we
expect to see from a project of this size?
The proposed Spectra Energy Pipeline Project will create
a significant amount of jobs during construction and add
capital investment and tax base to West Virginia,

Dear Sir/Madam:
Recently you were mailed a letter announcing that Spectra Energy Partners, LP ("Spectra
Energy") is evaluating a proposed natural gas pipeline expansion project in your area. Spectra Energy is
a leading pipeline transporter of dean-burning natural gas and through our multiple interstate pipeline
companies we have been providing natural gas to local utility and electric generating facilities for
almost 70 years.
To help us refine the proposed Spectra Energy Pipeline Project route, our representatives have
started collecting and evaluating information necessary to determine the pipeline path with the least
overall environmental and landowner impacts while balancing constructability concerns. As part of
that effort, you are receiving this follow-up letter because your property is within the initial study
corridor being considered and we are requesting your consent to perform survey activities on your
property in connection with the Spectra Energy project.
Our earlier Jetter shared news of our initial project outreach efforts with landowners,
community leaders and elected officials--a coordinated attempt to inform those most impacted about
the various aspects of the proposed project-such as surveys. These civil, environmental and cultural
resource surveys are required to thoroughly evaluate a pipeline route. The surveys will be performed
in a minimal amount of time with the goal of little to no inconvenience to you and other affected
landowners. The survey activities planned along a portion of your property within the study area--and
any minimal impacts that may result --are more fully described in the enclosure entitled "Description
of Survey Activities." While Spectra Energy certainly does not anticipate any damages to result from
these surveys, please be assured that you will be compensated if any damages to your property or
crops occur that are directly caused by these activities. Please also note that granting access to
conduct these necessary surveys does not grant any other rights to Spectra Energy. Your consent to
survey and your cooperation with Spectra Energy's project representatives Would be sincerely
appreciated.
Spectra Energy's efforts to develop a new natural gas transportation system is in response to
growing market needs to provide firm natural gas transportation in the South Atlantic region for
power generation and local distribution company core load growth needs by the fourth quarter of
2018. We believe this proposed project will benefit the South Atlantic region in several ways: by
making more diverse natural gas supplies available; by creating the new pipeline transportation
facilities necessary to support the needs of other regional power generators and natural gas
customers; and by addressing the growing demand for environmentally friendly natural gas.
Please note that due to the nature of siting interstate pipelines, other pipeline companies may
be evaluating proposed projects and their representatives may contact you or other landowners in
your area. This is because other pipeline companies may determine routing using similar evaluation
criteria as Spectra Energy. We understand it may be confusing if other pipeline companies contact you
regarding competing projects. We will certainly keep you informed of the project selection process and
you should not hesitate to contact us at the number below if you have any questions.
Field survey work is scheduled to begin in early August 2014. In those areas where Spectra
Energy is proposing to construct the new pipeline system, it will be necessary to determine a location
for the proposed line, availability of temporary construction work areas and potential construction
access roads. Your Spectra Energy representative will soon reach out to you to begin the dialogue that
leads to a better understanding of your property and the minimization of any impacts to your land. Our
goal is for you to be as informed as possible throughout the process.
A survey permission form is enclosed for your consideration. A self-addressed stamped
envelope also has been enclosed for your convenience. We ask that you please sign this survey permit
and return it to us in the enclosed envelope.
Again, we are very early in the proposed project process and everyone will have multiple
opportunities to interact and engage with the project team, as well as participate in the appropriate
regulatory processes. Different companies take different approaches to engagement and
communications with the affected public. Spectra Energy pipeline companies take a collaborative
approach. We communicate early and often about our project activities to build positive relationships
and long-lasting partnerships with all those we come in contact with.
If you have questions or would like additional information concerning our proposed Spectra
Energy project, please call our toll free number 1-844-847-5546. We would be pleased to address any
or all aspects of the project with you. For more information about us, please visit our website

Description of Survey Activities
Depending on the size of an individual parcel, all survey activities described below should only take a
minimal amount of time and should not result in any inconvenience to the property owner. All survey work
will be performed during reasonable daylight hours only. All work will be performed by authorized
professional surveyors and their crews. The surveys that Spectra Energy Partners, LP ("Spectra Energy") will
request for each property are:
(a) Civil Survey. This activity involves approximately four to five representatives, intermittently
placing wooden stakes along a portion of each property to delineate the a rea described as the
"study corridor." Depending upon the length of the proposed study corridor on the property to
be surveyed, this activity should take no longer than two days for each property that will be
surveyed.
(b) Environmental Survey. This activity involves approximately two to three representatives
walking within the study corridor, which will be clearly staked, to identify and delineate any
vegetative and geological indicators of wetland areas that may be present on the property. The
wetlands boundaries will be marked with small colored flags. Spectra Energy representatives
will also look for the presence of any threatened or endangered species, if a suspected habitat is
within the staked area. Depending on the length of the proposed route of the pipeline on the
property being surveyed, this activity should take no longer than three days for each property
that will be surveyed.
(c) Cultural Resources Survey. This activity involves two to four representatives walking within
the staked study corridor to identify any indicators of potential archaeological resources. If
such a site is suspected, then the Archeologists would return to that location with spade shovels
and perform a limited excavation of the test hole that would measure approximately 2x2 feet
square and approximately 2-3 feet deep. Any area that is excavated for this type of survey will
be restored by Spectra Energy to a condition consistent with its condition prior to the
excavation. Depending on the length of the proposed route of the pipeline on the property
being surveyed, the archaeological walkover will take less than one day. If a limited
archaeological excavation is necessary, it should take no longer than two days, weather
permitting.
During any survey work, no trees over 2 inches in diameter or timber will be cut down or removed from any
property. Small brush, however, may be cut in order for the civil surveyors to obtain a line-of-sight. If any
such brush is cut in residential areas, it will be removed from the property by Spectra Energy
representatives.
