Eastern Shore proposes to construct,
own, and operate a new delivery point
to deliver natural gas to INVISTA to be
located in Sussex County, Delaware.
Eastern Shore proposes to design and
construct, or cause the design and
construction of, a six-inch tap and valve
and approximately 8,500 feet of six-inch
steel pipe from an existing point on its
system to a new measuring and
regulating (M&R) station located at the
INVISTA manufacturing facility. Eastern
Shore states that the proposed delivery
point would supply one new boiler
which INVISTA is currently installing at
its manufacturing facility near the city
of Seaford (Seaford Site). Eastern Shore
asserts that there will be no impact on
Eastern Shore’s peak day deliveries due
to the off-peak seasonal nature of the
firm transportation (FT) service

[Docket No. CP08–13–000]
Floridian Natural Gas Storage
Company, LLC; Notice of Availability
of the Final Environmental Impact
Statement for the Floridian Natural Gas
Storage Project
July 11, 2008.
The staff of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) has prepared this Final
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)
for the natural gas facilities proposed by
the Floridian Natural Gas Storage
Company, LLC (FGS) under the abovereferenced docket. FGS’s proposed
Floridian Natural Gas Storage Project
(Project) would be located
approximately two miles north of the
unincorporated municipality of
Indiantown in Martin County, Florida.
The Final EIS was prepared to satisfy
the requirements of the National
Environmental Policy Act. The FERC
staff concludes that the proposed
Project, with the appropriate mitigation
measures as recommended, would have
limited adverse environmental impact.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers,
the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service are cooperating agencies for the
development of this EIS. A cooperating
agency has jurisdiction by law or special
expertise with respect to any
environmental impact involved with the
proposal and is involved in the NEPA
analysis.
The general purpose of the proposed
Project is to respond to the growing
demand for natural gas and natural gas
infrastructure in the United States, and,
more specifically, in Florida. The
Project would enhance access to
additional, competitively-priced
supplies of natural gas by providing
liquefaction, storage, and vaporization
services to customers in Florida and the
southeastern United States.
The Final EIS addresses the potential
environmental effects of construction
and operation of the facilities listed
below. FGS proposes to construct and
operate:
• An approximately 53.1 acre
liquefied natural gas storage facility;
• An approximately 4-mile-long, 12inch-diameter receiving pipeline to
interconnect with and receive natural
gas from the Gulfstream and/or Florida
Power & Light (FPL) lateral pipelines;
• An approximately 4-mile-long, 24inch-diameter sendout pipeline that
would parallel the 12-inch pipeline and

sroberts on PROD1PC70 with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 141 / Tuesday, July 22, 2008 / Notices
interconnect with and deliver natural
gas from the storage facility to the
Gulfstream and the FPL lateral
pipelines;
• Interconnection points with the
Gulfstream pipeline at milepost (MP)
4.18 and with the FPL lateral at MP
4.05; and
• A metering and regulating station.
FGS proposes to have the facilities
installed and operational within 36
months of commencing construction;
however, based on market conditions at
the time of construction, the storage
facility construction may be separated
into two phases.
The Final EIS has been placed in the
public files of the FERC and is available
for public inspection at: Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, Public
Reference Room, 888 First Street NE.,
Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426, (202)
502–8371.
CD–ROM copies of the Final EIS have
been mailed to federal, state, and local
agencies; public interest groups;
individuals and affected landowners
who requested a copy of the Final EIS
or provided comments during scoping;
libraries and newspapers in the Project
area; and parties to this proceeding.
Hard copy versions of the Final EIS
were mailed to those specifically
requesting them. A limited number of
hard copies and CD–ROMs are available
from the Public Reference Room
identified above.
In accordance with the Council on
Environmental Quality’s regulations
implementing NEPA, no agency
decision on a proposed action may be
made until 30 days after the EPA
publishes a notice of availability of a
Final EIS.
Additional information about the
project is available from the
Commission’s Office of External Affairs,
