Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 238 / Monday, December 12, 2016 / Notices
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.
Schedule for Environmental Review
Issuance of EA—January 24, 2017
90-day Federal Authorization Decision
Deadline—April 24, 2017
If a schedule change becomes
necessary, additional notice will be
provided so that the relevant agencies
are kept informed of the Project’s
progress.
Project Description
Texas Eastern proposes to excavate
and elevate sections of its Lines 10 (30inch-diameter), 15 (30-inch-diameter),
25 (36-inch-diameter) and 30 (36-inchdiameter) to minimize and monitor
potential strains on the pipelines due to
anticipated longwall mining activities of
Marshall Coal. Concurrent with pipeline
elevation, portions of two of the lines,
Lines 10 and 15, will be replaced with
new pipe to accommodate a minimum
US Department of Transportation Class
2 design. The sections of Lines 25 and
30 will be removed and Texas Eastern
will perform maintenance activities on
them. The four mainline sections will be
returned to natural gas service while
remaining elevated using sandbags and
skids during the longwall mining
activities and potential ground
subsidence. Once the mining-induced
subsidence and the 2017–2018 heating
season have both ended, the two
sections of Lines 10 and 15 located
within wetlands will be removed and
the four elevated pipeline sections will
be re-installed belowground,
hydrostatically tested, and placed back
into service.
