Notice of Schedule for Environmental
Review will serve to notify federal and
state agencies of the timing for the
completion of all necessary reviews, and
the subsequent need to complete all
federal authorizations within 90 days of
the date of issuance of the Commission
staff’s EA.
There are two ways to become
involved in the Commission’s review of
this project. First, any person wishing to
obtain legal status by becoming a party
to the proceedings for this project
should, on or before the comment date
stated below file with the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888
First Street NE., Washington, DC 20426,
a motion to intervene in accordance
with the requirements of the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211)
and the Regulations under the NGA (18
CFR 157.10). A person obtaining party
status will be placed on the service list
maintained by the Secretary of the
Commission and will receive copies of
all documents filed by the applicant and
by all other parties. A party must submit
seven copies of filings made in the
proceeding with the Commission and
must mail a copy to the applicant and
to every other party. Only parties to the
proceeding can ask for court review of
Commission orders in the proceeding.
However, a person does not have to
intervene in order to have comments
considered. The second way to
participate is by filing with the
Secretary of the Commission, as soon as
possible, an original and two copies of
comments in support of or in opposition
to this project. The Commission will
consider these comments in
determining the appropriate action to be
taken, but the filing of a comment alone
will not serve to make the filer a party
to the proceeding. The Commission’s
rules require that persons filing
comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to
the party or parties directly involved in
the protest.
Persons who wish to comment only
on the environmental review of this
project should submit an original and
two copies of their comments to the
Secretary of the Commission.
Environmental commentors will be
placed on the Commission’s
environmental mailing list, will receive
copies of the environmental documents,
and will be notified of meetings
associated with the Commission’s
environmental review process.
Environmental commentors will not be
required to serve copies of filed
documents on all other parties.
However, the non-party commentors
will not receive copies of all documents

filed by other parties or issued by the
Commission (except for the mailing of
environmental documents issued by the
Commission) and will not have the right
to seek court review of the
Commission’s final order.
The Commission strongly encourages
electronic filings of comments, protests
and interventions in lieu of paper using
the ‘‘eFiling’’ link at https://
www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file
electronically should submit an original
and 7 copies of the protest or
intervention to the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street
NE., Washington, DC 20426.

Midship Pipeline Company, LLC;
Supplemental Notice of Intent To
Prepare an Environmental Impact
Statement for the Planned
Midcontinent Supply Header Interstate
Pipeline Project and Request for
Comments on Environmental Issues
Related to New Pipeline Lateral and
Booster Station
As previously noticed on January 27,
2017, and supplemented herein, the
staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (FERC or Commission) will
prepare an environmental impact
statement (EIS) that will discuss the
environmental impacts of the
Midcontinent Supply Header Interstate
Pipeline Project (MIDSHIP Project)
involving construction and operation of
facilities by Midship Pipeline Company,
LLC (Midship Pipeline) 1 in Kingfisher,
Canadian, Grady, Garvin, Stephens,
Carter, Johnston, and Bryan Counties,
Oklahoma and leased capacity on
existing pipeline infrastructure in
Oklahoma, Texas, and Louisiana. The
Commission will use this EIS in its
decision-making process to determine
whether the project is in the public
convenience and necessity.
The Commission previously solicited
public input on the MIDSHIP Project in

January 2017. With this Supplemental
Notice of Intent (NOI) we2 are
specifically seeking comments on
additional facilities planned by Midship
Pipeline and recently identified as part
of the MIDSHIP Project, specifically the
Velma Lateral and Sholem Booster
Station. Your comments should focus
on the potential environmental effects,
reasonable alternatives, and measures to
avoid or lessen environmental impacts
from these facilities. Your input will
help the Commission staff determine
what issues we need to evaluate in the
EIS. To ensure that your comments are
timely and properly recorded, please
send your comments so that the
Commission receives them in
Washington, DC on or before April 21,
2017. If you have already submitted
comments for the MIDSHIP Project prior
to this Supplemental NOI, you do not
need to resubmit your comments.
This notice is being sent to the
Commission’s current environmental
mailing list for this project, including
the newly affected landowners along the
planned Velma Lateral and Sholem
Booster Station. State and local
government representatives should
notify their constituents of this planned
project and encourage them to comment
on their areas of concern.
If you are a newly affected landowner
receiving this notice, a pipeline
company representative may have
already contacted you or may contact
you soon about the acquisition of an
easement to construct, operate, and
maintain the planned facilities. The
company would seek to negotiate a
mutually acceptable agreement.
However, if the Commission approves
the project, that approval conveys with
it the right of eminent domain.
Therefore, if the easement negotiations
fail to produce an agreement, the
pipeline company could initiate
condemnation proceedings where
compensation would be determined in
accordance with state law.
A fact sheet prepared by the FERC
entitled ‘‘An Interstate Natural Gas
Facility on My Land? What Do I Need
To Know?’’ is available for viewing on
the FERC Web site (www.ferc.gov). This
fact sheet addresses a number of
typically asked questions, including the
use of eminent domain and how to
participate in the Commission’s
proceedings.

Projects.
