Abstract One of the most striking aspects of the Seyfert phenomenon is the conical structure of the Narrow Emission Line Regions (NLRs) which, in the Unified Model, is the result of collimation of the ionizing radiation. Recent HST imaging spectroscopy shows evidence of accelerating mass outflows and rich dynamics. The handful of sources with known extended NLRs that have been imaged to date with CXO reveal tantalizing insights into an NLR/X-Ray connection. Here we propose to obtain 20 ksec images of the 8 next best targets. All of these Seyferts show [OIII] emission on scale > few arcsec, hence easily resolvable by CXO. Our prime goal is to address whether there is indeed a correlation between the extended x-ray structure and other properties of the NLR. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Observations Description ------------------------ Real Time Justification ----------------------- None.
