San Bernardino National Forest,

Intent To Prepare a Joint
Environmental Impact Report/
Environmental Impact Statement for
the Proposed North-South Project EIR/
EIS
Forest Service, USDA.
Withdrawal of notice of intent
to prepare an EIR/EIS.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
On October 2, 2015 (Federal
Register Vol. 80, No. 191, page 59728),
the San Bernardino National Forest
(Forest Service) gave notice that,
together with the California Public
Utilities Commission (CPUC), the Forest
Service intended to prepare a joint
Environmental Impact Report and
Environmental Impact Statement (EIR/
EIS) for the Southern California Gas
Company (SoCalGas) and San Diego Gas
and Electric (SDG&E) proposed NorthSouth Project. The joint EIR/EIS would
have met the requirements of the
National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA) and the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The
CPUC denied the application on July 14,
2016 based on a lack of need for the
proposed pipeline. SoCalGas withdrew
their federal application on August 8,
2016 as a result of the CPUC action.
Therefore, further preparation of an EIR/
EIS is not necessary. The notice of
intent is withdrawn and the NEPA
process is hereby terminated.

Sirski, Natural Resource Specialist, San
Bernardino National Forest, 602 South
Tippecanoe Avenue, San Bernardino,
CA 92408. Telephone: (909) 382–2690.

Time, Monday through Friday.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
primary components of the Proposed
Project included the construction of a
36-inch-diameter natural gas
transmission pipeline and the
rebuilding of the Adelanto Compressor
Station. The pipeline would have been
primarily constructed within existing
public and private rights-of-way. The
Adelanto to Moreno pipeline would
have been approximately 65 miles in
length and would have started at the
Adelanto Compressor Station in the
high desert city of Adelanto and
proceeded in a southerly direction

through the Cajon Pass and the San
Bernardino National Forest, terminating
at the Moreno Pressure Limiting Station
in the City of Moreno Valley.
Approximately eight miles of the
proposed pipeline and associated
temporary construction areas would
have crossed lands subject to Forest
Service jurisdiction. The balance of the
alignment crossed through non-federal
land in San Bernardino and Riverside
Counties along public roads. The project
would have needed approval by both
the Forest Service and the CPUC, and
the project is not viable with the CPUC
decision to deny the application.
Several agencies had agreed to be
cooperating agencies for the NEPA
review, including the Environmental
Protection Agency, the California State
Water Resources Control Board, San
Bernardino County, and the Mojave
Desert Air Quality Management District.
Cooperative activities between the
Forest Service and those agencies with
respect to the proposed EIR/EIS have
ended.

MSD International GMBH (Puerto
Rico Branch) LLC (MSD), operator of
Subzone 7G, submitted a notification of
proposed production activity to the FTZ
Board for its facility in Las Piedras,
Puerto Rico within Subzone 7G. The
notification conforming to the
requirements of the regulations of the
FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was
received on March 28, 2017.
MSD already has authority to produce
certain pharmaceutical products within
Subzone 7G. The current request would
add a finished pharmaceutical product
and a foreign status material/component
to the scope of authority. Pursuant to 15
CFR 400.14(b), FTZ activity would be
limited to the specific foreign-status
materials and components and specific
finished products described in the
submitted notification (as described
below) and subsequently authorized by
the FTZ Board.
Production under FTZ procedures
could exempt MSD from customs duty
payments on the foreign-status
components used in export production.
On its domestic sales, MSD would be
able to choose the duty rates during
customs entry procedures that apply to
anacetrapib pharmaceutical tablets for
treatment of cardiovascular disease
(duty free) for the foreign-status
material/component noted below.
Customs duties also could possibly be
deferred or reduced on foreign-status
production equipment.
The component/material sourced
from abroad is anacetrapib (duty rate
6.5%).
Public comment is invited from
interested parties. Submissions shall be
addressed to the Board’s Executive
Secretary at the address below. The
closing period for their receipt is May
15, 2017.
