PennEast Pipeline Company, LLC;
Notice of Schedule for Environmental
Review of The Penneast Pipeline
Project Amendment
On February 1, 2019, PennEast
Pipeline Company, LLC (PennEast) filed
an application under section 7(c) of the
Natural Gas Act to amend the certificate
of public convenience and necessity and
related authorizations issued by the
Commission on January 19, 2018 in
Docket No. CP15–558–000 (January 19th
Order). In this application for
amendment, PennEast has proposed
four modifications that are outside the
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 247001
certificated route. The modifications
were designed to optimize the design of
the PennEast Pipeline Project and
respond to agency requests.
On February 15, 2019, the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC
or Commission) issued its Notice of
Application for the PennEast Pipeline
Project Amendment (Project
Amendment). This current notice alerts
agencies issuing federal authorization of
the requirement to complete all
necessary reviews and to reach a final
decision on a request for a federal
authorization within 90 days of the date
of issuance of the Commission’s staff’s
Environmental Assessment (EA) for the
Project Amendment. This instant notice
identifies the FERC staff’s planned
schedule for completion of an EA for the
Project Amendment.
Schedule for Environmental Review
Issuance of EA—(September 20, 2019)
90-day Federal Authorization Decision
Deadline—(December 19, 2019)
If a schedule change becomes
necessary for the EA, an additional
notice will be provided so that the
relevant agencies are kept informed of
the Project Amendment’s progress.
Project Amendment Description
The proposed four modifications in
Pennsylvania include: Saylor Avenue
Realignment in Luzerne County;
Interstate 81 Workspace Adjustment in
Luzerne County; Appalachian Trail PPL
Electric Utilities Crossing Realignment
in Carbon, Monroe, and Northampton
Counties; and Freemansburg Avenue
Realignment in Northampton County.
PennEast’s proposed realignment of the
project route crossing of the
Appalachian National Scenic Trail
would collocate the pipeline with an
existing easement. Except for the
realignment of the Appalachian
National Scenic Trail crossing, all other
realignments and adjustment are within
0.25 mile of the existing Project route
approved in the January 19th Order.
Background

issued a Notice of Intent to Prepare an
Environmental Assessment for the
Proposed Penneast Pipeline Project

The NOI was sent to federal, state,
and local government agencies; elected
officials; affected landowners;
environmental and public interest
groups; Native American tribes and
regional organizations; commentors and
other interested parties; and local
libraries and newspapers. Major issues
raised during scoping that are specific to
