send the information related to this
environmental review to all individuals,
organizations, and government entities
interested in and/or potentially affected
by the planned project.
Copies of the completed draft EIS will
be sent to the environmental mailing list
for public review and comment. If you
would prefer to receive a paper copy of
the document instead of the CD version,
or would like to remove your name from
the mailing list, please return the
attached Information Request (appendix
3).
Currently Identified Environmental
Issues
We have already identified several
issues that we think deserve attention
based on a preliminary review of the
planned facilities, the environmental
information provided by Transco,
comments received at Transco’s open
houses, and those comments filed todate. This preliminary list of issues may
change based on your additional
comments and our analysis:
• Potential impact of planned
Compressor Station 206 on property
values, air quality, health, noise, traffic,
soil, groundwater, and public safety;
• potential impact on Compressor
Station 206 from blasting activity at the
Trap Rock Industries, Inc. quarry;
• alternative compressor station
locations;
• the potential for the horizontal
directional drill method to impact
drinking water wells; and
• potential impacts on aquatic
resources in Raritan Bay and Lower
New York Bay.
mstockstill on DSK3G9T082PROD with NOTICES
effects on historic properties.5 We will
define the project-specific Area of
Potential Effects (APE) in consultation
with the SHPOs as the project develops.
On natural gas facility projects, the APE
at a minimum encompasses all areas
subject to ground disturbance (examples
include construction right-of-way,
contractor/pipe storage yards,
compressor stations, and access roads).
Our EIS for this project will document
our findings on the impacts on historic
properties and summarize the status of
consultations under section 106.
Becoming an Intervenor
Once Transco files its application
with the Commission, you may want to
become an ‘‘intervenor’’ which is an
official party to the Commission’s
proceeding. Intervenors play a more
formal role in the process and are able
to file briefs, appear at hearings, and be
heard by the courts if they choose to
appeal the Commission’s final ruling.
An intervenor formally participates in
the proceeding by filing a request to
intervene. Motions to intervene are
more fully described at https://
www.ferc.gov/resources/guides/how-to/
intervene.asp. Instructions for becoming
an intervenor are in the ‘‘Document-less
Intervention Guide’’ under the ‘‘e-filing’’
link on the Commission’s Web site.
Please note that the Commission will
not accept requests for intervenor status
at this time. You must wait until the
Commission receives a formal
application for the project.
Environmental Mailing List
The environmental mailing list
includes federal, state, and local
government representatives and
agencies; elected officials;
environmental and public interest
groups; Native American Tribes; other
interested parties; and local libraries
and newspapers. This list also includes
all affected landowners (as defined in
the Commission’s regulations) who are
potential right-of-way grantors, whose
property may be used temporarily for
project purposes, or who own homes
within certain distances of aboveground
facilities, and anyone who submits
comments on the project. We will
update the environmental mailing list as
the analysis proceeds to ensure that we

in or eligible for inclusion in the National Register
of Historic Places.

Committee To Provide Advice on
Methods for Deriving Water Quality
Criteria for the Protection of Aquatic
Life
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA), SAB Staff Office is
requesting public nominations of
scientific experts to augment the SAB
Ecological Processes and Effects
Committee (EPEC) for review of a draft
EPA document entitled ‘‘Scope and
Approach for Revising USEPA’s
Guidelines for Deriving National Water
Quality Criteria to Protect Aquatic Life.’’
DATES: Nominations should be
submitted by September 20, 2016 per
the instructions below.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Any
member of the public wishing further
information regarding this Notice and
Request for Nominations may contact
the Designated Federal Officer, as

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background: The SAB (42 U.S.C.

Committee that provides independent
scientific and technical peer review,
advice, consultation, and
recommendations to the EPA
Administrator on the technical basis for
EPA actions. As a Federal Advisory

in accordance with the Federal
Advisory Committee Act (FACA) (5
U.S.C. App. 2) and related regulations.
The SAB Ecological Process and Effects
Committee (EPEC) is a subcommittee of
the SAB that provides advice through
the chartered SAB on technical issues
related to EPA environmental programs
and the supporting science and research
to protect, sustain, and restore the
health of ecosystems. The SAB and the
EPEC, augmented with additional
experts, will comply with the provisions
of FACA and all appropriate SAB Staff
Office procedural policies. The
augmented EPEC will provide advice
through the chartered SAB on scientific
and technical issues related to the
Agency’s proposed methods for revising
and updating water quality criteria, as
described in the Agency’s draft scoping
document, entitled ‘‘Scope and
Approach for Revising USEPA’s
Guidelines for Deriving National Water
Quality Criteria to Protect Aquatic Life.’’
This draft document provides an
overview of the framework EPA
proposes to use for the phased revision
of the 1985 Guidelines for Deriving
Numerical Water Quality Criteria for the
Protection of Aquatic Organisms and
Their Uses by outlining the planned
scope and approach of the Guidelines
revision process and introducing new
and alternative methods to be
considered for deriving aquatic life
criteria based on the latest and most
appropriate science available.
EPA’s Office of Water (OW) requested
an SAB consultation (i.e., early advice)
on their draft approach for updating and
revising the EPA’s 1985 methodology
for deriving national Ambient Water
Quality Criteria to protect aquatic life,
as described in the draft scoping
document. The SAB Staff Office is
seeking experts to augment the SAB
EPEC for this advisory activity. EPA’s
OW has also requested reviews of two
subsequent and related draft documents:
‘‘Draft Expedited Methodologies for
Deriving Water Quality Criteria for the
Protection of Aquatic Life’’ and ‘‘Draft
Revised USEPA Guidelines for Deriving
Numeric Water Quality Criteria for the
Protection of Aquatic Life.’’ These draft
documents are currently scheduled for
completion as drafts in late 2017 and
mid-2019.

Report: For information concerning the
draft EPA report, ‘‘Scope and Approach
for Revising USEPA’s Guidelines for
Deriving National Water Quality Criteria
to Protect Aquatic Life,’’ please contact

Request for Nominations: The SAB
Staff Office is seeking nominations of

subsequent reviews of methods for
revising Water Quality Criteria. For this
effort, the SAB Staff Office seeks experts
in one or more of the following areas:
Aquatic toxicology; ecotoxicology;
aquatic ecology; ecological risk
assessment; ecological effects modeling;
and statistics, especially as applied to
developing robust computational
methods for estimating acute and
chronic effects of water pollutants on
aquatic life and aquatic-dependent
wildlife. Additional information about
