2 The estimated number of respondents is based
on the NERC compliance registry as of December
12, 2016. According to the NERC compliance
registry, there are 99 U.S. balancing authorities (BA)
and 11 reliability coordinators (RC).
3 The estimates for cost per response are derived
using the following formula: Burden Hours per
Response * $/hour = Cost per Response. The
$64.29/hour figure for an engineer and the $37.75/
hour figure for a record clerk (rounded to $38.00)
are based on the average salary plus benefits data
from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. (https://
www.bls.gov/oes/current/naics2_22.htm), May
2015, Section 22, Utilities. In the burden table,
engineering is abbreviated as ‘‘Eng.’’ and record
keeping is abbreviated as ‘‘R.K.’’.

Regulatory Commission’s (Commission
or FERC) regulations, Commission staff
has prepared this final General
Conformity Determination (GCD) for the
Atlantic Sunrise Project (Project)
proposed by Transcontinental Gas
Pipeline Company, LLC (Transco).
The FERC staff concludes that the
Project would achieve conformity with
the Pennsylvania State Implementation
Plan in Lancaster County through the
transfer of Emission Reduction Credits.
The Project would involve the
construction and operation of about
199.4 miles of pipeline facilities and
appurtenant aboveground facilities,
including:
• 185.9 miles of new natural gas
pipeline in Columbia, Lancaster,
Lebanon, Luzerne, Northumberland,
Schuylkill, Susquehanna, and Wyoming
Counties, Pennsylvania (58.7 miles of
30-inch-diameter and 127.3 miles of 42inch-diameter pipeline);
• 11.0 miles of new pipeline looping
in Clinton and Lycoming Counties,
Pennsylvania (2.5 miles of 36-inchdiameter and 8.5 miles of 42-inchdiameter pipeline);
• 2.5 miles of 30-inch-diameter
pipeline replacements in Prince William
County, Virginia;
• two new compressor stations in
Columbia and Wyoming Counties,
Pennsylvania (Compressor Stations 610
and 605);
• additional compression and related
modifications to two existing
compressor stations in Columbia and
Lycoming Counties, Pennsylvania
(Compressor Stations 517 and 520) and
one in Howard County, Maryland
(Compressor Station 190);
• other modifications would be taking
place at Compressor Stations 145, 150,
155, 160, 170, 185, and 190 across
Maryland, North Carolina, and Virginia;
• two new meter stations and three
new regulator stations would be
constructed and operated in
Pennsylvania. There would also be
modifications at an existing meter
station, and the construction and
operation of additional ancillary

facilities would occur in Pennsylvania;
and
• in North Carolina and South
Carolina, supplemental odorization,
odor detection, and/or odor masking/
deodorization equipment would be
installed at 56 meter stations, regulator
stations, and ancillary facilities.
