the Natural Gas Act (NGA) and Part 157
of the Commission’s regulations,
requesting a certificate of public

the Cavern 24 Expansion Project
consists of placing into Commissionjurisdictional service an existing natural
gas salt dome storage cavern;
constructing associated piping,
measuring, and appurtenant facilities in
order to connect the cavern to
PetroLogistics’ existing pipeline; and
increasing the maximum daily
deliverability of the storage facility, all
as more fully set forth in the application
which is on file with the Commission
and open to public inspection. This
filing may also be viewed on the
Commission’s Web site at https://
www.ferc.gov using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link.
Enter the docket number, excluding the
last three digits, in the docket number
field to access the document. For
assistance, call (866) 208–3676 or TTY,
(202) 502–8659.
Any questions regarding this
application should be directed to Allen
Kirkley, PetroLogistics Natural Gas
Storage, LLC, 4470 Bluebonnet Blvd.,
Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70809, or by
calling (225) 706–2253 (telephone) or
(225) 706–7050 (fax).
Pursuant to section 157.9 of the
Commission’s rules, 18 CFR 157.9,
within 90 days of this Notice the
Commission staff will either: complete
its environmental assessment (EA) and
place it into the Commission’s public
record (eLibrary) for this proceeding, or
issue a Notice of Schedule for
Environmental Review. If a Notice of
Schedule for Environmental Review is
issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the
Commission staff’s issuance of the final
VerDate Mar<15>2010
18:51 Aug 13, 2010
Jkt 220001
environmental impact statement (FEIS)
or EA for this proposal. The filing of the
EA in the Commission’s public record
for this proceeding or the issuance of a
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 FEIS or 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
14 copies of filings made with the
Commission and must mail a copy to
the applicant and to every other party in
the proceeding. 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 commenters 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 commenters will not be
PO 00000
Frm 00032
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

required to serve copies of filed
documents on all other parties.
However, the non-party commenters
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.
Motions to intervene, protests and
comments may be filed electronically
via the Internet in lieu of paper; see, 18
CFR 385.2001(a) (1) (iii) and the
instructions on the Commission’s Web
site under the ‘‘e-Filing’’ link. The
Commission strongly encourages
electronic filings.
