Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission
[Docket No. CP17–133–000]
Northwest Pipeline LLC; Notice of
Availability of the Environmental
Assessment for the Proposed North
Fork Nooksack Line Lowering Project
The staff of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) has prepared an
environmental assessment (EA) for the
North Fork Nooksack Line Lowering
Project, proposed by Northwest Pipeline
LLC (Northwest) in the above-referenced
docket. Northwest requests
authorization to replace and lower
approximately 1,700 feet of 30-inchdiameter natural gas pipeline, and
remove about 1,550 feet of previously
abandoned 26-inch-diameter pipeline in
Whatcom County, Washington. The
North Fork Nooksack Line Lowering
Project would eliminate a potential
obstruction to river flow and improve
system reliability.
The EA assesses the potential
environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the North
Fork Nooksack Line Lowering Project in
accordance with the requirements of the
National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA). The FERC staff concludes that
approval of the proposed project, with
appropriate mitigating measures, would
not constitute a major federal action

significantly affecting the quality of the
human environment.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has
participated as a cooperating agency in
the preparation of the EA. Cooperating
agencies have jurisdiction by law or
special expertise with respect to
resources potentially affected by the
proposal and participate in the NEPA
analysis.
The proposed North Fork Nooksack
Line Lowering Project includes the
following:
• Remove, replace, and lower
approximately 1,700 feet of 30-inchdiameter natural gas pipeline in the
same trench; and
• remove approximately 1,550 feet of
previously abandoned 26-inch-diameter
natural gas pipeline that would become
exposed during the removal and
installation of the 30-inch-diameter
pipeline.
The FERC staff mailed copies of the
EA to federal, state, and local
government representatives and
agencies; elected officials; Native
American tribes; potentially affected
landowners and other interested
individuals and groups; and newspapers
and libraries in the project area. In
addition, the EA is available for public
viewing on the FERC’s Web site
(www.ferc.gov) using the eLibrary link.
A limited number of copies of the EA
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.
Any person wishing to comment on
the EA may do so. Your comments
should focus on the potential
environmental effects, reasonable
alternatives, and measures to avoid or
lessen environmental impacts. The more
specific your comments, the more useful
they will be. To ensure that the
Commission has the opportunity to
consider your comments prior to
making its decision on this project, it is
important that we receive your
comments in Washington, DC on or
before December 13, 2017.
For your convenience, there are three
methods you can use to file your
comments to the Commission. In all
instances, please reference the project
docket number (CP17–133–000) with
your submission. The Commission
encourages electronic filing of
comments and has expert staff available
to assist you at (202) 502–8258 or
