Iris,

First, I am not part of the Genome Browser staff--one of them might have 
better information than I do.  In any case, information on the encode project 
is available here under ENCODE-HapMap Coordination:

http://www.genome.gov/10005107

In short, I think the sequences are available in the NCBI TRACE archive (but I 
have not confirmed that myself) and a link is on the page noted above.
