Since its application in the above-referenced docket, Equitrans, L.P. (Equitrans) has amended the original proposal to no longer include the H–313 Pipeline Loop 1 and incorporate route modifications along the remaining pipeline segments. This Supplemental Notice is being issued to seek comments on the revised pipeline alignment and opens a new scoping period for interested parties to file comments on environmental issues specific to these facilities. The August 29, 2014 NOI announced that the FERC staff will prepare an environmental assessment (EA) to address the environmental impacts of the Ohio Valley Connector Project (Project). Please refer to the NOI for more information about the facilities proposed by Equitrans in West Virginia and Ohio. The Commission will use this EA in its decision-making process to determine whether the Project is in the public convenience and necessity. You can make a difference by providing us with your specific comments or concerns about the Project. Your comments should focus on the potential environmental effects, reasonable alternatives, and measures to avoid or lessen environmental impacts. To ensure that your comments are timely and properly recorded, please send your comments so that the Commission receives them in Washington, DC on or before June 29, 2015. The Commission previously solicited public input on the Project in the fall of 2014. We 2 are specifically seeking comments on the pipeline route modifications to help the Commission staff determine what issues need to be evaluated in the EA. If you have previously submitted comments during the pre-filing review in docket no. PF14–13–000, you do not need to resubmit your comments. Please note that this special scoping period will close on June 29, 2015. This Supplemental Notice is being sent to the Commission’s current environmental mailing list for this Project, with the exception that only those landowners that are newly affected by the proposed pipeline route modifications, or those that were previously affected by the H–313 Pipeline Loop are receiving this Notice. State and local government 1 A loop is a segment of pipeline constructed parallel to an existing pipeline that ties into the existing system to increase capacity. 2 ‘‘We,’’ ‘‘us,’’ and ‘‘our’’ refer to the environmental staff of the Commission’s Office of Energy Projects. PO 00000 Frm 00024 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 32105 representatives are asked to 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 proposed 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 the easement negotiations fail to produce an agreement, the pipeline company could initiate condemnation proceedings where compensation would be determined in accordance with state law. A fact sheet prepared by the FERC entitled ‘‘An Interstate Natural Gas Facility on My Land? What Do I Need To Know?’’ is available for viewing on the FERC Web site (www.ferc.gov). 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. Public Participation For your convenience, there are three methods you can use to submit your comments to the Commission. The Commission will provide equal consideration to all comments received, whether filed in written form or provided verbally. The Commission encourages electronic filing of comments and has expert staff available to assist you at (202) 502–8258 or efiling@ferc.gov. Please carefully follow these instructions so that your comments are properly recorded. (1) You can file your comments electronically using the eComment feature located on the Commission’s Web site (www.ferc.gov) under the link to Documents and Filings. This is an easy method for interested persons to submit brief, text-only comments on a project; (2) You can file your comments electronically using the eFiling feature located on the Commission’s Web site (www.ferc.gov) under the link to Documents and Filings. With eFiling, you can provide comments in a variety of formats by attaching them as a file with your submission. New eFiling users must first create an account by clicking on ‘‘eRegister.’’ You must select the type of filing you are making. If you are filing a comment on a particular project, please select ‘‘Comment on a Filing;’’ or E:\FR\FM\05JNN1.SGM 05JNN1
