Commission
[Docket No. CP19–479–000]
Northern Natural Gas Company; Notice
of Schedule for Environmental Review
of The Bushton to Clifton A-Line
Abandonment Project
On June 7, 2019, Northern Natural
Gas Company (Northern) filed an
application in Docket No. CP19–479
requesting a Certificate of Public
Convenience and Necessity pursuant to
Section 7(b) and 7(c) of the Natural Gas
Act to abandon, construct, and operate
certain natural gas pipeline facilities.
The proposed project is known as the
Bushton to Clifton A-line Abandonment
Project (Project). The Project would
consist of abandoning in-place segments
of Northern’s A-line and J-line facilities
and constructing modifications at the
existing Tescott Compressor Station.
Due to the age of the pipeline, Northern
has been operating segments of the Aline and J-line at reduced pressures to
minimize safety risks, and the proposed
abandonment will eliminate these safety
concerns. The Project is located in Clay,
Cloud, Ellsworth, Lincoln, Ottawa, and
Rice Counties, Kansas.
On June 16, 2019, the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (Commission or
FERC) issued its Notice of Application
for the Project. Among other things, that
notice alerted agencies issuing federal
authorizations 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
staff’s Environmental Assessment (EA)
for the Project. This instant notice
identifies the FERC staff’s planned
schedule for the completion of the EA
for the Project.
Schedule for Environmental Review
Issuance of EA—November 8, 2019
90-day Federal Authorization Decision
Deadline—February 6, 2020
If a schedule change becomes
necessary, additional notice will be
provided so that the relevant agencies
are kept informed of the Project’s
progress.

Project Description
Northern is proposing to abandon inplace the A-line facilities consisting of
approximately 92.76 miles of 26-inchdiameter pipeline on Northern’s M640A
and M630A and 15.74 miles of 24-inchdiameter pipeline on its M640J pipeline
systems and other appurtenant facilities.

The Project would consist of the
following pipelines and facilities:
• The M640A and M630A-lines:
Abandonment of the M640 A-line in
Kansas consists of approximately 45.64
miles of 26-inch-diameter pipeline
beginning at Northern’s Bushton
Compressor Station located in Ellsworth
County, Kansas, and ending near the
Tescott Compressor Station in Ottawa
County, Kansas. Abandonment of the
M630 A-line in Kansas consists of
approximately 47.12 miles of 26-inchdiameter pipeline beginning at the
Tescott Compressor Station and ending
at Northern’s Clifton Compressor
Station located in Clay County, Kansas.
• The M640 J-line: Abandonment of
the M640 J-line in Kansas consists of
approximately 15.74 miles of 24-inchdiameter pipeline beginning at Block
Valve JBJ04 located in Ellsworth
County, Kansas, and ending near Block
Valve JXA07 located in Ottawa County,
Kansas.
• Tescott Compressor Station:
Northern proposes to construct and
operate an additional natural gas-driven
ISO rated 11,152 horsepower Solar Mars
turbine unit (Unit No. 6) at the existing
Tescott Compressor Station. The unit
will tie into station piping that is
connected to Northern’s existing
mainlines. Approximately 85 feet of 24inch-diameter station piping,
approximately 40 feet of 36-inchdiameter station piping, and
approximately 80 feet of 8-inchdiameter station piping will be removed
to accommodate tie-ins.
After abandonment, Northern will
continue to operate the other pipelines
in its right-of-way and maintain its
pipeline easements with the exception
of a segment of J-line that will be
abandoned in-place.
Background
On July 16, 2019, the Commission
issued a Notice of Intent to Prepare an
Environmental Assessment for the
Proposed Bushton to Clifton A-Line
Abandonment Project and Request for
Comments on Environmental Issues
(NOI). The NOI was sent to affected
landowners; federal, state, and local
government agencies; elected officials;
environmental and public interest
groups; Native American tribes; other
interested parties. To date, no comments
have been received in response to the
NOI. All substantive comments will be
addressed in the EA.
Additional Information
In order to receive notification of the
issuance of the EA and to keep track of
all formal issuances and submittals in
specific dockets, the Commission offers

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. What information is EPA particularly
interested in?
Pursuant to PRA section 3506(c)(2)(A)
(44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)), EPA
specifically solicits comments and
information to enable it to:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the Agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility.
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
Agency’s estimates of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used.
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected.
4. Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of responses. In
particular, EPA is requesting comments
from very small businesses (those that
employ less than 25) on examples of
specific additional efforts that EPA
could make to reduce the paperwork
burden for very small businesses
affected by this collection.
II. What information collection
activities does this action apply to?
EPA intends to initiate two new
collection activities to provide more
comprehensive and accurate
information to inform the evaluation
and risk management of existing
chemicals as required under section 6 of
the Toxic Substances Control Act
(TSCA), which was amended in 2016 by
the Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical
Safety for the 21st Century Act, 15
U.S.C. 2601 et seq. EPA must prioritize,
evaluate, and/or determine risks for at
least 20 chemicals at a time, and manage
any unreasonable risks, all under strict
statutory deadlines. For each chemical
evaluated, EPA must evaluate hazards
and exposures for each condition of use
and manage through regulations all risks
that it has determined to be
unreasonable. The Supporting
