24, 2020, UGI LNG, Inc. (UGI) requested that the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission (Commission) grant an extension of time, until 
June 21, 2021, to complete construction of its Temple Truck Rack 
Expansion Project (Project) at its Temple liquefied natural gas (LNG) 
storage facility located in Ontelaunee Township, Berks County, 
Pennsylvania, as authorized in the October 18, 2018 Order Issuing 
Certificate (Certificate Order).\1\ Ordering Paragraph B(1) of the 
Certificate Order required UGI to complete the construction of the

one year from of issuance, or by October 18, 2019.\2\

    \2\ Id. at ordering para. (B)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    UGI states that it submitted its Implementation Plan for the 
Project in January 2019, but was unable to request notice to proceed 
with project construction activities until late June of 2019, as the 
Commission's Division of LNG Facility Review & Inspection required UGI 
LNG to submit a significant amount of additional information via phone 
calls and in-person meetings before work could begin on the Project. 
After submitting its initial request for notice to proceed, UGI 
submitted supplemental requests for notices to proceed and supplements 
to its Implementation Plan on July 10, August 16, and September 5, 
2019. UGI LNG was granted full authorization to proceed with 
construction activities on September 18, 2019. In March 2020, UGI 
stopped work on the Project due to the Novel Coronavirus Disease 
(COVID-19) pandemic.
    UGI states that it intended to request to extend its certificate 
authorization prior to October 18, 2019, but failed to do so due to an 
internal administrative oversight. UGI now belatedly requests an 
additional nine months, or until June 21, 2020, to complete the 
authorized construction of the Project facilities and make facilities 
available for service.
    This notice establishes a 15-calendar day intervention and comment 
period deadline. Any person wishing to comment on UGI'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).\3\

    \3\ Only motions to intervene from entities that were party to 
the underlying proceeding will be accepted. Algonquin Gas 
Transmission, LLC, 170 FERC ] 61,144, at P 39 (2020).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As a matter of practice, the Commission itself generally acts on 
requests for extensions of time to complete construction for Natural 
Gas Act facilities when such requests are contested before order 
issuance. For those extension requests that are contested,\4\ the 
Commission will aim to issue an order acting on the request within 45 
days.\5\ The Commission will address all arguments relating to whether 
the applicant has demonstrated there is good cause to grant the 
extension.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ Contested proceedings are those where an intervenor disputes 
any material issue of the filing. 18 CFR 385.2201(c)(1) (2020).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission will not consider arguments that re-litigate the 
issuance of the April 15th 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.\7\ 
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.\8\ The OEP Director, or 
his or her designee, will act on those extension requests that are 
uncontested.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ Similarly, the Commission will not re-litigate the issuance 
of an NGA section 3 authorization, including whether a proposed 
project is not inconsistent with the public interest and whether the 
Commission's environmental analysis for the permit order complied 
with NEPA.
