proposed facilities would disturb about
12,000 acres of land. Of the 12,000
acres, about 8,000 acres would be
temporarily disturbed and about 4,000
acres would be permanently maintained
for operation of the pipeline within a
50-foot-wide permanent right-of-way
and as aboveground facility sites.
Following construction, all temporary
workspaces would be restored and
allowed to revert to former use. About
60 percent of the proposed route would
cross federally administered land
managed by the BLM or USFS.
The EIS Process
The FERC will be the lead federal
agency for the preparation of the EIS. As
noted above, the BLM and USFS will be
cooperating agencies. NEPA requires the
FERC to take into account the
environmental impacts that could result
from an action whenever it considers
the issuance of a Certificate of Public
Convenience and Necessity under
Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act. NEPA
also requires us to identify and address
concerns the public may have about
proposals. This is the ‘‘scoping’’ process
referred to earlier. The main goal of the
scoping process is to focus the analysis
in the EIS on important environmental
issues and reasonable alternatives. By
this Notice, we are requesting agency
and public comments on the scope on
the issues to be addressed in the EIS. All
comments received will be considered
during the preparation of the EIS.
We have already started to meet with
Ruby personnel, agencies, and other
interested stakeholders to discuss the
project and identify issues/impacts and
concerns. Between February 19 and
March 18, 2008, representatives of FERC
staff participated in public open houses
sponsored by Ruby in the project area.
FERC staff explained the NEPA
environmental review process to
interested stakeholders and noted
comments related to the project.
Our independent analysis of the
issues will be included in a draft EIS.
The draft EIS will be mailed to federal,
state, and local government agencies;
elected officials; environmental and
public interest groups; Native American
tribes; affected landowners; other
interested parties; local libraries and
newspapers; and the FERC’s official
service list for this proceeding. A
comment period will be allotted for
review of the draft EIS. We will consider
all timely comments on the draft EIS
and revise the document, as necessary,
before issuing a final EIS.
Public Participation
You are encouraged to become
involved in this process and provide

your specific comments or concerns
about Ruby’s planned project. Your
comments should focus on the potential
environmental effects, reasonable
alternatives, and measures to avoid or
lessen environmental impacts. The more
specific your comments, the more useful
they will be. If you wish to mail
comments, please carefully follow these
instructions:
• Send an original and two copies of
your letter to:
Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary, Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888
First Street, NE.; Room 1A, Washington,
DC 20426.
• Label one copy of your comments
for the attention of Gas 1, DG2E; and
• Reference Docket No. PF08–9–000
on the original and both copies.
• Mail your comments so that they
will be received in Washington, DC, on
or before April 30, 2008.
The Commission encourages
electronic filing of comments. See 18
CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the
instructions on the Commission’s
Internet Web site at https://www.ferc.gov
under the link to ‘‘Documents and
Filings’’ and ‘‘eFiling.’’ eFiling is a file
attachment process and requires that
you prepare your submission in the
same manner as you would if filing on
paper, and save it to a file on your
computer’s hard drive. New eFiling
users must first create an account by
clicking on ‘‘Sign up’’ or ‘‘eRegister.’’
You will be asked to select the type of
filing you are making. This filing is
considered a ‘‘Comment on Filing.’’ In
addition, there is a ‘‘Quick Comment’’
option available, which is an easy
method for interested persons to submit
text only comments on a Project. The
Quick-Comment User Guide can be
viewed at www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/
efiling/quick-comment-guide.pdf. Quick
Comment does not require a FERC
eRegistration account; however, you
will be asked to provide a valid e-mail
address. All comments submitted under
either eFiling or the Quick Comment
option are placed in the public record
for the specified docket or Project
number(s). Comments submitted
electronically must be submitted by
April 30, 2008.

summaries, and direct links to the
documents. To register for this service,

Abstract: The National Emission
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants
(NESHAP) for Petroleum Refineries,
published at 40 CFR part 63, subpart
CC, were proposed on July 15, 1994, and
promulgated on August 18, 1995. These
regulations apply to the following
existing and new petroleum refining
process units and emission points
located at refineries that are major
sources of hazardous air pollutants
(HAPs): Miscellaneous process vents,
storage vessels, wastewater streams and
treatment operations, equipment leaks,
gasoline loading racks, and marine
vessel loading operations. These
regulations also apply to storage vessels
and equipment leaks associated with
bulk gasoline terminals or pipeline
breakout stations that are related to an
affected petroleum refinery. New
facilities include those that commenced
construction or reconstruction after the
date of proposal. This information is
being collected to assure compliance
with 40 CFR part 63, subpart CC.
In general, all NESHAP standards
require initial notifications,
performance tests, and periodic reports.
Owners or operators are also required to
maintain records of the occurrence and
duration of any startup, shutdown, or
malfunction in the operation of an
affected facility, or any period during
which the monitoring system is
inoperative. These notifications, reports,
and records are essential in determining
compliance, and are required of all
