Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line
Company, LLC; Notice of Availability
of the Final Environmental Impact
Statement for the Proposed Atlantic
Sunrise Project
The staff of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) has prepared a final
environmental impact statement (EIS)
for the Atlantic Sunrise Project,
proposed by Transcontinental Gas Pipe
Line Company, LLC (Transco) in the
above-referenced docket. Transco
requests authorization to expand its
existing pipeline system from the
Marcellus Shale production area in
northern Pennsylvania to deliver an
incremental 1.7 million dekatherms per
day of year-round firm transportation
capacity to its existing southeastern
market areas.
The final EIS assesses the potential
environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the
project in accordance with the
requirements of the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The
FERC staff concludes that approval of
the project would result in some adverse
environmental impacts; however, most
of these impacts would be reduced to
less-than-significant levels with the
implementation of Transco’s proposed
mitigation and the additional measures
recommended in the final EIS.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
and the U.S. Department of
Agriculture’s Natural Resources
Conservation Service participated as
cooperating agencies in the preparation
of the final EIS. Cooperating agencies
VerDate Sep<11>2014
21:14 Jan 06, 2017
Jkt 241001
have jurisdiction by law or special
expertise with respect to resources
potentially affected by the proposal and
participate in the NEPA analysis.
Although the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers and the Natural Resources
Conservation Service provided input to
the conclusions and recommendations
presented in the final EIS, the agencies
will present their own conclusions and
recommendations in their respective
records of decision or determinations
for the project.
The final EIS addresses the potential
environmental effects of the
construction and operation of about
199.4 miles of pipeline composed of the
following facilities:
• 185.9 miles of new 30- and 42-inchdiameter natural gas pipeline in
Pennsylvania;
• 11.0 miles of new 36- and 42-inchdiameter pipeline looping in
Pennsylvania;
• 2.5 miles of 30-inch-diameter
replacements in Virginia; and
• associated equipment and facilities.
The project’s proposed aboveground
facilities include two new compressor
stations in Pennsylvania; additional
compression and related modifications
to three existing compressor stations in
Pennsylvania and Maryland; two new
meter stations and three new regulator
stations in Pennsylvania; and minor
modifications at existing aboveground
facilities at various locations in
Pennsylvania, Virginia, Maryland, North
Carolina, and South Carolina to allow
for bi-directional flow and the
installation of supplemental
odorization, odor detection, and/or odor
masking/deodorization equipment.
The FERC staff mailed copies of the
final EIS 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.
Paper copy versions of this EIS were
mailed to those specifically requesting
PO 00000
Frm 00036

them; all others received a CD version.
In addition, the final EIS is available for
public viewing on the FERC’s Web site
(www.ferc.gov) using the eLibrary link.
A limited number of copies 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.
In accordance with the Council on
Environmental Quality’s (CEQ)
regulations implementing NEPA, no
agency decision on a proposed action
may be made until 30 days after the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency
publishes a notice of availability of the
final EIS in the Federal Register.
However, the CEQ regulations provide
an exception to this rule when an
agency decision is subject to a formal
internal appeal process that allows other
agencies or the public to make their
views known. In such cases, the agency
decision may be made at the same time
the notice of the final EIS is published,
allowing both periods to run
concurrently. The Commission decision
for this proposed action is subject to a
30-day rehearing period.
Additional information about the
project is available from the
Commission’s Office of External Affairs,
at (866) 208–FERC, or on the FERC Web
site (www.ferc.gov) using the eLibrary
link. Click on the eLibrary link, click on
‘‘General Search,’’ and enter the docket
number excluding the last three digits in
the Docket Number field (i.e., CP15–
138). Be sure you have selected an

provides access to the texts of formal
documents issued by the Commission,
such as orders, notices, and
rulemakings.
In addition, the Commission offers a
free service called eSubscription that
allows you to keep track of all formal
issuances and submittals in specific
dockets. This can reduce the amount of
time you spend researching proceedings
