specific conditions in the GAN. The
GAN also incorporates your approved
application as part of your binding
commitments under the grant.
3. Grant Administration: Applicants
should budget for an annual two-day
meeting for project directors to be held
in Washington, DC.
4. Reporting: (a) If you apply for a
grant under these competitions, you
must ensure that you have in place the
necessary processes and systems to
comply with the reporting requirements
in 2 CFR part 170 should you receive
funding under the competition. This
does not apply if you have an exception
under 2 CFR 170.110(b).
(b) At the end of your project period,
you must submit a final performance
report, including financial information,
as directed by the Secretary. If you
receive a multi-year award, you must
submit an annual performance report
that provides the most current
performance and financial expenditure
information as directed by the Secretary
under 34 CFR 75.118. The Secretary
may also require more frequent
performance reports under 34 CFR
75.720(c). For specific requirements on
reporting, please go to www.ed.gov/
fund/grant/apply/appforms/
appforms.html.
5. Performance Measures: To evaluate
the overall success of its education
research and special education research
grant programs, the Institute annually
assesses the percentage of projects that
result in peer-reviewed publications, the
number of newly developed or modified
interventions with evidence of promise
for improving student education
outcomes, and the number of Institutesupported interventions with evidence
of efficacy in improving student
outcomes, including school readiness
outcomes for young children and
student academic outcomes and social
and behavioral competencies for schoolage students. School readiness outcomes
include pre-reading, reading, prewriting, early mathematics, early
science, and social-emotional skills that
prepare young children for school.
Student academic outcomes include
learning and achievement in core
academic content areas (reading,
writing, math, and science) and
outcomes that reflect students’
successful progression through the
education system (e.g., course and grade
completion; high school graduation;
postsecondary enrollment, progress, and
completion). Social and behavioral
competencies include social skills,
attitudes, and behaviors that may be
important to student’s academic and
post-academic success. Additional
education outcomes for students with or

at risk of disability include
developmental outcomes for infants and
toddlers (birth to age three) with or at
risk for a disability pertaining to
cognitive, communicative, linguistic,
social, emotional, adaptive, functional,
or physical development; and
developmental and functional outcomes
that improve education outcomes,
transition to employment, independent
living, and postsecondary education for
students with disabilities.
6. Continuation Awards: In making a
continuation award under 34 CFR
75.253, the Secretary considers, among
other things: Whether a grantee has
made substantial progress in meeting
the goals and objectives of the project;
whether the grantee has expended funds
in a manner that is consistent with its
approved application and budget; and,
if the Secretary has established
performance measurement
requirements, whether the grantee has
met the performance targets in the
grantee’s approved application. In
making a continuation grant, the
Secretary also considers whether the
grantee is operating in compliance with
the assurances in its approved
application, including those applicable
to Federal civil rights laws that prohibit
discrimination in programs or activities
receiving Federal financial assistance
from the Department (34 CFR 100.4,
104.5, 106.4, 108.8, and 110.23).

compressor station in Section 125,
Block G, Gaines County, Texas. Plans
include installation of two units: (1)
Solar Taurus 70–10802S with
approximately 11,152 horsepower (HP);
and (2) Solar Taurus 60–7302S with
approximately 6,937 HP. The combined
units have an ISO rating of 18,089 HP.
The suction side of the compressor
station will be connected to the 30inch-diameter Spraberry to Plains
pipeline. The station will discharge to
the 30-inch diameter Kermit to Beaver
pipeline. The proposed Project includes
the installation of a station suction
scrubber, a station recycle control valve,
lube-oil coolers, a discharge gas cooler,
blowdown silencers, unit inlet air filters
and exhaust systems, a backup
generator, fuel gas heating skids, a fire/
gas detection system, an air compressor
and dryer system, two compressor
buildings, a control building, an
auxiliary building, a septic system and
associated above-grade and below-grade
piping, valves and instrumentation. The
compressor buildings will contain
noise-attenuating panels, insulation and
air inlet/exhaust hoods. A new six-foot
tall fence, topped by three rows of
barbed wire, will surround the
perimeter of the new compressor station
yard. Facilities will provide for
incremental peak-day firm service of
210,000 dekatherms per day (Dth/d).
Northern will acquire an approximately
20-acre site for the new compressor
station. Northern also requests herein
approval for rolled-in rate treatment of
the expansion costs. The estimated
capital cost of the facilities proposed is
$40,692,877.
Pursuant to section 157.9 of the
Commission’s rules, 18 CFR 157.9,
within 90 days of this Notice the
Commission staff will either: Complete
its environmental assessment (EA) and
place it into the Commission’s public
record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or
issue a Notice of Schedule for
Environmental Review. If a Notice of
Schedule for Environmental Review is
issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the
Commission staff’s issuance of the final
environmental impact statement (FEIS)
or EA for this proposal. The filing of the
EA in the Commission’s public record
for this proceeding or the issuance of a
Notice of Schedule for Environmental
Review will serve to notify federal and
state agencies of the timing for the
completion of all necessary reviews, and
the subsequent need to complete all
federal authorizations within 90 days of
the date of issuance of the Commission
staff’s FEIS or EA.
There are two ways to become
involved in the Commission’s review of

this project. First, any person wishing to
obtain legal status by becoming a party
to the proceedings for this project
should, on or before the comment date
stated below file with the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888
First Street NE., Washington, DC 20426,
a motion to intervene in accordance
with the requirements of the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211)
and the Regulations under the NGA (18
CFR 157.10). A person obtaining party
status will be placed on the service list
maintained by the Secretary of the
Commission and will receive copies of
all documents filed by the applicant and
by all other parties. A party must submit
seven copies of filings made in the
proceeding with the Commission and
must mail a copy to the applicant and
to every other party. Only parties to the
proceeding can ask for court review of
Commission orders in the proceeding.
However, a person does not have to
intervene in order to have comments
considered. The second way to
participate is by filing with the
Secretary of the Commission, as soon as
possible, an original and two copies of
comments in support of or in opposition
to this project. The Commission will
consider these comments in
determining the appropriate action to be
taken, but the filing of a comment alone
will not serve to make the filer a party
to the proceeding. The Commission’s
rules require that persons filing
comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to
the party or parties directly involved in
the protest.
Persons who wish to comment only
on the environmental review of this
project should submit an original and
two copies of their comments to the
Secretary of the Commission.
Environmental commenters will be
placed on the Commission’s
environmental mailing list, will receive
copies of the environmental documents,
and will be notified of meetings
associated with the Commission’s
environmental review process.
Environmental commenters will not be
required to serve copies of filed
documents on all other parties.
However, the non-party commenters
will not receive copies of all documents
filed by other parties or issued by the
Commission (except for the mailing of
environmental documents issued by the
Commission) and will not have the right
to seek court review of the
Commission’s final order.
The Commission strongly encourages
electronic filings of comments, protests,
and interventions via the internet in lieu
of paper. See 18 CFR 385.2001(a) (1) (iii)
