Commission
[Docket No. CP15–169–000]
Rmajette on DSK2VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line
Company, LLC; Notice of Intent To
Prepare a Supplement Environmental
Assessment for the Amended Rock
Springs Expansion Project and
Request for Comments on
Environmental Issues
The staff of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) will prepare a
supplemental environmental assessment
(EA) that will discuss the environmental
impacts of the amendment to the Rock
Springs Expansion Project (Project)
involving construction and operation of
facilities by Transcontinental Gas Pipe
Line Company, LLC (Transco) in
Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. The
Commission will use this supplemental
EA in its decision-making process to
determine whether the amendment to
the project is in the public convenience
and necessity.
This notice announces the opening of
the scoping process the Commission
will use to gather input from the public
and interested agencies on the project.
Your comments should focus on the
potential environmental effects,
reasonable alternatives, and measures to
avoid or lessen environmental impacts.
Your input will help the Commission
staff determine what issues they need to
evaluate in the supplemental EA. Please
note that the scoping period will close
on May 20, 2015.
You may submit comments in written
form or verbally. Further details on how
to submit written comments are in the
Public Participation section of this
notice. If you sent comments on this
project to the Commission before the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
14:41 Apr 24, 2015
Jkt 235001
opening of this docket on April 13, 2015
you will need to file those comments in
Docket No. CP15–169–000 to ensure
they are considered as part of this
proceeding.
This notice is being sent to the
Commission’s current environmental
mailing list and includes landowners
affected by the amended Project. State
and local government representatives
should notify their constituents of this
proposed project and encourage them to
comment on their areas of concern.
If you are a landowner receiving this
notice, a pipeline company
representative may contact you about
the acquisition of an easement to
construct, operate, and maintain the
planned facilities. The company would
seek to negotiate a mutually acceptable
agreement. However, if the Commission
approves the project, that approval
conveys with it the right of eminent
domain. Therefore, if easement
negotiations fail to produce an
agreement, the pipeline company could
initiate condemnation proceedings
where compensation would be
determined in accordance with state
law.
Transco provided landowners with a
fact sheet prepared by the FERC entitled
‘‘An Interstate Natural Gas Facility On
My Land? What Do I Need To Know?’’
This fact sheet addresses a number of
typically-asked questions, including the
use of eminent domain and how to
participate in the Commission’s
proceedings. It is also available for
viewing on the FERC Web site
(www.ferc.gov).
Summary of the Project and Proposed
Route Modification
On March 19, 2015, FERC issued an
Order Issuing Certificate (Order) to
Transco authorizing the Rock Springs
Expansion Project. The EA for the
Project in Docket No. CP14–504–000
was issued on November 14, 2014. On
March 19, 2015, Transco accepted the
Order pursuant to section 157.20(a) of
the Commission’s Regulations. The
Project is an expansion of Transco’s
existing pipeline system which will
enable Transco to provide 192,000
dekatherms per day of incremental firm
transportation capacity from Transco’s
Station 210 Zone 6 Pool in Mercer
County, New Jersey to Old Dominion
Electric Cooperative’s approved Wildcat
Point Generating Facility in Cecil
County, Maryland.
In this amendment, Transco proposes
to modify the previously authorized
pipeline route in Lancaster County,
Pennsylvania. The proposed alignment
modification occurs from milepost (MP)
7.60 to MP 8.29 (a total of 0.69 mile).
PO 00000
Frm 00015
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

Transco is proposing to adjust the
pipeline centerline alignment from the
originally authorized property to the
adjacent property to the east. The
proposed minor route modification
would not affect any new landowners,
as the adjacent property owner owns
other parcels on which the pipeline is
sited. Additionally, the route
modification would result in minor
changes in workspace configurations on
two other properties, including a
reduction in permanent easement.
The general location map of the
project facilities is shown in appendix
1.1
Land Requirements for Construction
No new workspace impacts would
occur as a result of the proposed minor
route modification. The minor route
modification has been designed to result
in no net gain of workspace required for
Project construction.
The EA Process
The National Environmental Policy
Act (NEPA) requires the Commission to
take into account the environmental
impacts that could result from an action
whenever it considers the issuance of a
Certificate of Public Convenience and
Necessity. NEPA also requires us 2 to
discover and address concerns the
public may have about proposals. This
process is referred to as ‘‘scoping.’’ The
main goal of the scoping process is to
focus the analysis in the supplemental
EA on the important environmental
issues. By this notice, the Commission
requests public comments on the scope
of the issues to address in the
supplemental EA. We will consider all
filed comments during the preparation
of the supplemental EA.
In the supplemental EA, we will
discuss impacts that could occur as a
result of the construction and operation
of the proposed project under these
general headings:
• Geology and soils;
• land use;
• water resources, fisheries, and
wetlands;
• cultural resources;
• vegetation and wildlife;
• air quality and noise;
• endangered and threatened species;
1 The appendices referenced in this notice will
not appear in the Federal Register. Copies of the
appendices were sent to all those receiving this
notice in the mail and are available at www.ferc.gov
using the link called ‘‘eLibrary’’ or from the
Commission’s Public Reference Room, 888 First
Street NE., Washington, DC 20426, or call (202)

eLibrary, refer to the last page of this notice.
