Algonquin Gas Transmission, LLC;
Notice of Availability of the
Environmental Assessment for the
Proposed Salem Lateral Project
The staff of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) has prepared an
environmental assessment (EA) for the
Salem Lateral Project, proposed by
Algonquin Gas Transmission, LLC
(Algonquin) in the above-referenced
docket. Algonquin requests
authorization to construct
approximately 1.2 miles of pipeline in
the city of Salem, Massachusetts in
order to provide 115,000 dekatherms of
natural gas per day to the Salem Harbor

Station natural gas-fired power plant.
Footprint Power Salem Harbor
Development, LP (Footprint) intends to
replace the existing coal-fired electric
generation facility with a natural gasfired facility.
The EA assesses the potential
environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the Salem
Lateral Project in accordance with the
requirements of the National
Environmental Policy Act (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.
The New England Division of Army
Corps of Engineers (COE) participated as
a cooperating agency in the preparation
of the EA. Cooperating agencies have
jurisdiction by law or special expertise
with respect to resources potentially
affected by a proposal and participate in
the NEPA analysis. The COE intends to
adopt and use the EA to support
issuance of their Section 404 and
Section 10 permit authorizations.
The proposed Salem Lateral Project
includes the following facilities:
• Approximately 1.2 miles of new 16inch-diameter lateral pipeline (Salem
Lateral); and
• A new metering and flow regulating
(M&R) station (Salem Lateral M&R
Station) on Footprint’s property.
The FERC staff mailed copies of the
EA to federal, state, and local
government representatives and
agencies; elected officials; 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
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.
Any person wishing to comment on
the EA may do so. Your comments
should focus on the potential
environmental effects, reasonable
alternatives, and measures to avoid or
lessen environmental impacts. The more
specific your comments, the more useful
they will be. To ensure that the
Commission has the opportunity to
consider your comments prior to
making its decision on this project, it is
important that we receive your

to the proceeding must file a motion to
intervene pursuant to Rule 214 of the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedures (18 CFR 385.214).1 Only
intervenors have the right to seek
rehearing of the Commission’s decision.
The Commission grants affected
landowners and others with
environmental concerns intervenor
status upon showing good cause by
stating that they have a clear and direct
interest in this proceeding which no
