East Tennessee Natural Gas, LLC;
Notice of Availability of the
Environmental Assessment for the
Proposed Loudon Expansion Project
The staff of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) has prepared an
environmental assessment (EA) for the
Loudon Expansion Project, proposed by
East Tennessee Natural Gas, LLC (East
Tennessee) in the above-referenced
docket. East Tennessee requests
authorization to construct, own, and
operate a new pipeline, new mainline
valve, and new meter station in Monroe
and Loudon Counties, Tennessee and
install a pressure regulator at an existing
meter station in Loudon County. The
Loudon Expansion Project would
provide up to 40,000 Dekatherms per
day of firm transportation service Tate
& Lyle Americas Ingredients, LLC for its
new natural gas fueled combined cycle
electric power plant at its
manufacturing facility in Loudon
County.
The EA assesses the potential
environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the
Loudon Expansion 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 proposed Loudon Expansion
Project includes the following facilities:
• 10.2 miles of new 12-inch-diameter
natural gas pipeline from East
Tennessee’s existing 3200 mainline in
Monroe County, Tennessee to the Tate
& Lyle in Loudon County, Tennessee;
• one 12-inch mainline valve, two 12inch tee taps, above- and below-ground
piping, and a pig launcher barrel in
Monroe County;
• one new meter facility, above- and
below-ground piping, flow
measurement and control equipment, a
filter/separator, a pig receiver barrel,
aboveground valve operators for below
PO 00000

ground valves, blowdowns, and a
condensate tank in Loudon County; and
• a pressure regulator at existing
Meter Station 59039 on its LoudonLenoir City Lateral Line 3218D–100 in
Loudon County.
The FERC staff mailed copies of the
EA to federal, state, and local
government representatives and
agencies; elected officials;
environmental and public interest
groups; 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.

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
