(DEI) in the above-referenced docket. DEI requests authorization to construct, operate, and maintain a new natural gas pipeline in Floyd and Harrison Counties, Indiana and Jefferson County, Kentucky. The EA assesses the potential environmental effects of the construction and operation of the Gallagher Station Pipeline Project in accordance with the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA). The FERC 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. VerDate Mar<15>2010 18:37 Apr 12, 2011 Jkt 223001 The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers participated as a cooperating agency in the preparation of this EA. Cooperating agencies have jurisdiction by law or special expertise with respect to resources potentially affected by the proposal and participate in the NEPA analysis. The proposed Gallagher Station Pipeline Project would involve construction of 19.42 miles of new 20inch-diameter pipeline, one metering and regulating station located at the Gallagher Electric Generating Station in Floyd County, Indiana, one metering station at the interconnection with the Texas Gas Pipeline located in Jefferson County, Kentucky, and two mainline block valves to be located along the pipeline.

accordance with the requirements of the National Environmental Policy 
Act of 1969 (NEPA). The FERC 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.
