Northern Lights 2009–2010 Zone EF
Expansion Project; Notice of
Availability of the Environmental
Assessment for the Proposed Northern
Lights 2009–2010 Zone EF Expansion
Project
February 27, 2009.
The staff of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) has prepared an
environmental assessment (EA) on the
natural gas pipeline facilities proposed
by Northern Natural Gas Company
(Northern) in the above-referenced
docket.
The EA was prepared to satisfy the
requirements of the National
Environmental Policy Act. The staff
concludes that approval of the proposed
project, with appropriate mitigating
measures, would not constitute a major
federal action significantly affecting the
quality of the human environment.
The EA assesses the potential
environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the
proposed pipeline facilities including:
• An approximately 6.37-mile-long
extension of the 30-inch-diameter
Faribault-Farmington D-Line in Rice
and Dakota Counties, Minnesota;
• An approximately 6.06-mile-long
extension of the 20-inch-diameter
PO 00000
Frm 00023
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Farmington-North Branch C-Line in
Washington County, Minnesota;
• An approximately 6.04-mile-long
extension of the 20-inch-diameter Elk
River loop in Anoka County, Minnesota;
• The replacement of approximately
9.32 miles of the 3- and 2-inch-diameter
Rockford Branch Line with 22.95 miles
of 16-inch-diameter pipeline in Carver,
Wright, and Hennepin Counties,
Minnesota;
• An approximately 11.21 miles of
the 16-inch-diameter greenfield
Corcoran Branch Line in Hennepin
County, Minnesota;
• A new 15,000 horsepower ISO-rated
greenfield compressor station located
near Albert Lea, Minnesota in Freeborn
County, Minnesota; and
• A new meter station in Hennepin
County, Minnesota.
Northern proposes to expand the
capacity of its facilities in these areas to
transport an additional 135,000
decatherms per day of natural gas for
incremental firm winter service.
The EA has been placed in the public
files of the FERC. A limited number of
copies of the EA are available for
distribution and public inspection at:
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission,
Public Reference Room, 888 First Street,
NE., Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426,
(202) 502–8371.
Copies of the EA have been mailed to
federal, state and local agencies, public
interest groups, interested individuals,
newspapers, and parties to this
proceeding.
Any person wishing to comment on
the EA may do so. To ensure
consideration prior to a Commission
decision on the proposal, it is important
that we receive your comments before
the date specified below.
Please note that the Commission
strongly encourages electronic filing of
