National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation;
Notice of Request for Extension of
Time
Take notice that on May 20, 2020,
National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation
(National) requested that the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission
(Commission) grant an extension of
time, until November 1, 2020, to
construct and place into service
Brockway Modernization Project
(Project) located in Jefferson and Elk
Counties, Pennsylvania authorized on
July 3, 2019. The Project will enable
replacement of approximately 9.7 miles
of 12-inch-diameter pipeline and certain
related facilities.
National was initially required to
construct the facilities and place them
into service by July 5, 2020. National
now requests a four-month extension of
this deadline through November 1,
2020. National states that due to delays
in receiving the required permits,
National was unable to begin
construction until March 1, 2020.
Accordingly, National proposes a new
construction schedule, deferring the
projected in-service date for the
facilities to no later than November 1,
2020.
This notice establishes a 15-calendar
day intervention and comment period
deadline. Any person wishing to
comment on National’s request for an
extension of time may do so. No reply
comments or answers will be
considered. If you wish to obtain legal
status by becoming a party to the
proceedings for this request, you
should, on or before the comment date
stated below, file 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 Natural
Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10).1

complete construction for Natural Gas
Act facilities when such requests are
contested before order issuance. For
those extension requests that are
contested,2 the Commission will aim to
issue an order acting on the request
within 45 days.3 The Commission will
address all arguments relating to
whether the applicant has demonstrated
there is good cause to grant the
extension.4 The Commission will not
consider arguments that re-litigate the
issuance of the certificate order,
including whether the Commission
properly found the project to be in the
public convenience and necessity and
whether the Commission’s
environmental analysis for the
certificate complied with the National
Environmental Policy Act.5 At the time
a pipeline requests an extension of time,
orders on certificates of public
convenience and necessity are final and
the Commission will not re-litigate their
issuance.6 The OEP Director, or his or
her designee, will act on all of those
extension requests that are uncontested.
