Commission
[Docket No. CP16–10–000; Docket No.
CP16–13–000]
Notice of Availability of the Final
Environmental Impact Statement for
the Proposed Mountain Valley Project
and Equitrans Expansion Project:
Mountain Valley Pipeline LLC,
Equitrans LP
The staff of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) has prepared a final
environmental impact statement (EIS)
for the projects proposed by Mountain
Valley Pipeline LLC (Mountain Valley)
and Equitrans LP (Equitrans) in the
above-referenced dockets. Mountain
Valley requests authorization to
construct and operate certain interstate
natural gas facilities in West Virginia
and Virginia, known as the Mountain
Valley Project (MVP) in Docket Number
CP16–10–000. The MVP is designed to
transport about 2 billion cubic feet per
day (Bcf/d) of natural gas from
production areas in the Appalachian
Basin to markets in the Mid-Atlantic
and Southeastern United States.
Equitrans requests authorization to
construct and operate certain natural gas
facilities in Pennsylvania and West
Virginia, known as the Equitrans
Expansion Project (EEP) in Docket No.
CP16–13–000. The EEP is designed to
transport about 0.4 Bcf/d of natural gas,
to improve system flexibility and
reliability, and serve markets in the
Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, and Southeast,
through interconnections with various
other interstate systems, including the
proposed MVP.
The final EIS assesses the potential
environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the MVP
and EEP in accordance with the
requirements of the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969
(NEPA). The FERC staff concludes that
construction and operation of the
projects would result in some adverse
environmental impacts. In the case of
the clearing of forest, effects may be

long-term and significant. However, for
most other environmental resources,
effects should be temporary or shortterm, and impacts would be reduced to
less-than-significant levels with the
implementation of the applicants’
proposed mitigation measures and the
additional measures recommended in
the final EIS.
The United States (U.S.) Department
of Agriculture Forest Service (FS); U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers (COE); U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA); U.S. Department of the Interior
Bureau of Land Management (BLM); the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS),
West Virginia Field Office; U.S.
Department of Transportation; West
Virginia Department of Environmental
Protection; and West Virginia Division
of Natural Resources participated as
cooperating agencies in the preparation
of the final EIS. Cooperating agencies
have jurisdiction by law or special
expertise with respect to resources
potentially affected by the proposals
and participated in the NEPA analysis.
Proposed Facilities
The final EIS addresses the potential
environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the
proposed facilities. For the MVP,
facilities include:
• About 304 miles of new 42-inchdiameter pipeline extending from the
new Mobley Interconnect in Wetzel
County, West Virginia to the existing
Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line
Company LLC (Transco) Station 165 in
Pittsylvania County, Virginia;
• 3 new compressor stations
(Bradshaw, Harris, Stallworth) in West
Virginia, totaling about 171,600
horsepower (hp);
• 4 new meter and regulation stations
and interconnections (Mobley,
Sherwood, WB, and Transco);
• 3 new taps (Webster, Roanoke Gas
Lafayette, and Roanoke Gas Franklin);
• 8 pig 1 launchers and receivers at 5
locations; and
• 36 mainline block valves.
For the EEP, facilities include:
• About 7 miles total of new various
diameter pipelines in six segments;
• new Redhook Compressor Station,
in Greene County, Pennsylvania, with
31,300 hp of compression;
• 4 new taps (Mobley, H–148, H–302,
H–306) and 1 new interconnection
(Webster);
• 4 pig launchers and receivers; and
• decommissioning and
abandonment of the existing 4,800 hp
Pratt Compressor Station in Greene
County, Pennsylvania.
1 A pig is a device used to clean or inspect the
interior of a pipeline.
