within 90 days of this Notice, the

Notice of Availability of the
Environmental Assessment for the
Proposed Jackson Prairie Storage
Facility Project; Puget Sound Energy,
Inc.
The staff of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) has prepared an
environmental assessment (EA) for the
Jackson Prairie Storage Facility Project
proposed by Puget Sound Energy, Inc.
(Puget Energy) in the above-referenced
docket. Puget Energy requests
authorization to construct, operate, and
abandon certain facilities at its existing
Jackson Prairie Storage Facility in Lewis
County, Washington.
The EA assesses the potential
environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the
Jackson Prairie Storage Facility 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 project includes the
following activities:
• Permanently plug and abandon four
gas wells (Well Nos. 1, 11, 31, and 47)
that have not been used in several years
and may contribute to cushion gas
