(TGP) in the above-referenced docket. TGP requests authorization to construct compressor facilities in Tioga VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:49 Feb 15, 2013 Jkt 229001 and Bradford Counties, Pennsylvania to provide up to 230,000 dekatherms per day of natural gas delivery capacity to the northeast region. The EA assesses the potential environmental effects of the construction and operation of the Rose Lake Expansion Project in accordance with the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act. 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. The proposed Rose Lake Expansion Project includes the following modifications at three existing compressor stations along TGP’s 300 Line: • Installing a 12,630-horsepower (hp) turbine-compressor package at Compressor Station 315 near Wellsboro, Tioga County; • Abandoning by removal an existing compressor and replacing it with a new compressor at Compressor Station 317 near Troy, Bradford County; • Abandoning in place two existing 4,500-hp compressor units and replacing them with a new 16,000-hp turbine-compressor package at Compressor Station 319 near Wyalusing, Bradford County; and • Installing ancillary equipment and piping modifications at Compressor Stations 315, 317, and 319. The FERC staff mailed copies of the EA to federal, state, and local government representatives and agencies; elected officials; environmental and public interest groups; Native American tribes; potentially affected landowners and other interested individuals and groups; newspapers and libraries in the project area; and parties to this proceeding. In addition, the EA is available for public viewing on the FERC’s Web site (www.ferc.gov) using the eLibrary link.

Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company, L.L.C.; Notice of Availability of 
the Environmental Assessment for the Proposed Rose Lake Expansion 
Project

    The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or 
Commission) has prepared an environmental assessment (EA) for the Rose 
Lake Expansion Project, proposed by Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company, 
L.L.C. (TGP) in the above-referenced docket. TGP requests authorization 
to construct compressor facilities in Tioga and Bradford Counties, 
Pennsylvania to provide up to 230,000 dekatherms per day of natural gas 
delivery capacity to the northeast region.
    The EA assesses the potential environmental effects of the 
construction and operation of the Rose Lake Expansion Project in 
accordance with the requirements of the National Environmental Policy 
Act. 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.
    The proposed Rose Lake Expansion Project includes the following 
modifications at three existing compressor stations along TGP's 300 
Line:
     Installing a 12,630-horsepower (hp) turbine-compressor 
package at Compressor Station 315 near Wellsboro, Tioga County;
     Abandoning by removal an existing compressor and replacing 
it with a new compressor at Compressor Station 317 near Troy, Bradford 
County;
     Abandoning in place two existing 4,500-hp compressor units 
and replacing them with a new 16,000-hp turbine-compressor package at 
Compressor Station 319 near Wyalusing, Bradford County; and
     Installing ancillary equipment and piping modifications at 
Compressor Stations 315, 317, and 319.
    The FERC staff mailed copies of the EA to federal, state, and local 
government representatives and agencies; elected officials; 
environmental and public interest groups; Native American tribes; 
potentially affected landowners and other interested individuals and 
groups; newspapers and libraries in the project area; and parties to 
this proceeding.
    In addition, the EA is available for public viewing on the FERC's 
Web site (www.ferc.gov) using the eLibrary link. A limited number of
