Paulsboro Natural Gas Pipeline
Company, LLC; Notice of Schedule for
Environmental Review of the Delaware
River Pipeline Relocation Project
On December 1, 2015, Paulsboro
Natural Gas Pipeline Company, LLC
(Paulsboro) filed an application in
Docket No. CP16–27–000 requesting
authorization and a Certificate of Public
Convenience and Necessity pursuant to
Section 7(b) and 7(c) of the Natural Gas
Act (NGA) to abandon, construct, and
operate certain natural gas pipeline
facilities. The proposed project is
known as the Delaware River Pipeline
Relocation Project (Project).
On December 11, 2015, the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission
(Commission or FERC) issued its Notice
of Application for the Project. Among
other things, that notice alerted agencies
issuing federal authorizations of the
requirement to complete all necessary
reviews and to reach a final decision on
a request for a federal authorization
within 90 days of the date of issuance
of the Commission staff’s Environmental
Assessment (EA) for the Project. This
instant notice identifies the FERC staff’s
planned schedule for the completion of
the EA for the Project.

If a schedule change becomes

progress.
Project Description
Paulsboro proposes to abandon about
2.4 miles of 6- and 8-inch-diameter
natural gas pipeline extending across
the Delaware River between Delaware
County, Pennsylvania and Gloucester
County, New Jersey. Paulsboro would
replace the abandoned pipeline with 2.6
miles of 12- and 24-inch-diameter
pipeline installed under the Delaware
River using the horizontal directional
drill method. The purpose of the Project
is to facilitate the United States Army
Corps of Engineers’ dredging activities
for the Delaware River Main Channel
Deepening Project (45-Foot Project). The
Project would increase natural gas
transportation capacity from 38 million
standard cubic feet per day (MMScf/d)
to 57.7 MMScf/d to the sole customer
served by the pipeline, Paulsboro
Refining Company, LLC.
Background
On January 19, 2016, the Commission
issued a Notice of Intent to Prepare an
Environmental Assessment for the
Proposed Delaware River Pipeline
Relocation Project and Request for
Comments on Environmental Issues
(NOI). The NOI was published in the
Federal Register and mailed to affected
landowners; federal, state, and local
government agencies; elected officials;
environmental and public interest
groups; Native American tribes; other
interested parties; and local libraries
and newspapers.
In response to the NOI, the
Commission received comments from
Consolidated Rail Corporation,
Delaware Riverkeeper Network, New
Jersey Department of Environmental
Protection, New Jersey State Historic
Preservation Office, and Pennsylvania
State Historic Preservation Office. The
primary issues raised by the
commentors included state permit
requirements and environmental
compliance; potential impacts on
cultural and natural resources;
cumulative impacts; pipeline safety;
future upgrades of Paulsboro’s facilities
and systems; and natural gas production
methods.
The Federal Aviation Administration,
U.S. Coast Guard, and U.S. Army Corps
of Engineers, Philadelphia District are
cooperating agencies in the preparation
of the EA.
