Pursuant to section 157.9 of the
Commission’s rules (18 CFR 157.9),
within 90 days of this Notice, the
Commission staff will either: Complete
its environmental assessment (EA) and
place it into the Commission’s public
record (eLibrary) for this proceeding or
issue a Notice of Schedule for
Environmental Review. If a Notice of
Schedule for Environmental Review is
issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the
Commission staff’s issuance of the final
environmental impact statement (FEIS)
or EA for this proposal. The filing of the
EA in the Commission’s public record
for this proceeding or the issuance of a
Notice of Schedule will serve to notify

federal and state agencies of the timing
for the completion of all necessary
reviews, and the subsequent need to
complete all federal authorizations
within 90 days of the date of issuance
of the Commission staff’s FEIS or EA.
There are two ways to become
involved in the Commission’s review of
this project. First, any person wishing to
obtain legal status by becoming a party
to the proceedings for this project
should, on or before the comment date
stated below, file with the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888
First Street NE., Washington, DC 20426,
a motion to intervene in accordance
with the requirements of the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211)
and the Regulations under the NGA (18
CFR 157.10). A person obtaining party
status will be placed on the service list
maintained by the Secretary of the
Commission and will receive copies of
all documents filed by the applicant and
by all other parties. A party must submit
5 copies of filings made with the
Commission and must mail a copy to
the applicant and to every other party in
the proceeding. Only parties to the
proceeding can ask for court review of
Commission orders in the proceeding.
However, a person does not have to
intervene in order to have comments
considered. The second way to
participate is by filing with the
Secretary of the Commission, as soon as
possible, an original and two copies of
comments in support of or in opposition
to this project. The Commission will
consider these comments in
determining the appropriate action to be
taken, but the filing of a comment alone
will not serve to make the filer a party
to the proceeding. The Commission’s
rules require that persons filing
comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to
the party or parties directly involved in
the protest.
Persons who wish to comment only
on the environmental review of this
project should submit an original and
two copies of their comments to the
Secretary of the Commission.
Environmental commenters will be
placed on the Commission’s
environmental mailing list, will receive
copies of the environmental documents,
and will be notified of meetings
associated with the Commission’s
environmental review process.
Environmental commenters will not be
required to serve copies of filed
documents on all other parties.
However, the non-party commenters
will not receive copies of all documents
filed by other parties or issued by the
Commission (except for the mailing of

environmental documents issued by the
Commission) and will not have the right
to seek court review of the
Commission’s final order.
The Commission strongly encourages
electronic filings of comments, protests
and interventions in lieu of paper using
the eFiling link at https://www.ferc.gov.
Persons unable to file electronically
should submit an original and 5 copies
of the protest or intervention to the
Federal Energy regulatory Commission,

Board hereby adopts the following
policy statement:
Purpose
The Farm Credit Administration (FCA
or Agency) Board reaffirms its
commitment to Equal Employment
Opportunity (EEO) and Diversity
(EEOD) and its belief that all FCA
employees should be treated with
dignity and respect. The Board also
provides guidance to Agency
management and staff for deciding and
taking action in these critical areas.
Importance
Unquestionably, the employees who
comprise the FCA are its most important
resource. The Board fully recognizes
that the Agency draws its strength from
the dedication, experience, and
diversity of its employees. The Board is
firmly committed to taking whatever
steps are needed to protect the rights of
its staff and to carrying out programs
that foster the development of each
employee’s potential. We believe an
investment in efforts that strongly
promote EEOD will prevent the conflict
and the high costs of correction for
taking no, or inadequate, action in these
areas.
The Farm Credit Administration
(FCA) Board adopts the following policy
statement:
It is the policy of the FCA to prohibit
discrimination in Agency policies,
program practices, and operations.
Employees, applicants for employment,
and members of the public who seek to
take part in FCA programs, activities,
and services will be treated fairly. The
FCA Board Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer (CEO) is ultimately
responsible for ensuring that FCA meets
all EEOD requirements and initiatives in
PO 00000

accordance with laws and regulations,
to maintain a workplace that is free from
discrimination and that values all
employees. FCA, under the appropriate
laws and regulations, will:
• Ensure equal employment
opportunity based on merit and
qualification, without discrimination
because of race, color, religion, sex
(including sexual orientation), age (40 or
older), national origin, disability, status
as a parent, genetic information, or
filing of a complaint, participation in
discrimination or harassment complaint
proceedings, or other opposition to
discrimination;
• Provide for the prompt and fair
consideration of complaints of
discrimination;
• Make reasonable accommodations
for qualified applicants for employment
and employees with physical or mental
disabilities under law;
• Make reasonable accommodations
based on applicants’ and employees’
religious beliefs or practices, consistent
with Title VII;
• Provide an environment free from
harassment to all employees;
• Create and maintain an
organizational culture that recognizes,
values, and supports employee and
public diversity and inclusion;
• Develop objectives within the
Agency’s operation and strategic
planning process to meet the goals of
EEOD and this policy;
• Implement affirmative programs to
carry out this policy within the Agency;
and
• To the extent practicable, seek to
encourage the Farm Credit System to
continue its efforts to promote and
increase diversity.
Diversity and Inclusion
The FCA intends to be a model
employer. That is, as far as possible,
FCA will build and maintain a
workforce that reflects the rich diversity
of individual differences evident
throughout this Nation. The Board
views individual differences as
complementary and believes these
differences enrich our organization.
When individual differences are
respected, recognized, and valued,
diversity becomes a powerful force that
can contribute to achieving superior
results. Therefore, we will create,
maintain, and continuously improve on
an organizational culture that fully
recognizes, values, and supports
employee diversity. The Board is
committed to promoting and supporting
an inclusive environment that provides
to all employees, individually and
collectively, the chance to work to their
full potential in the pursuit of the
