[Docket No. CP20–504–000]
Northern Natural Gas Company; Notice
of Schedule for Environmental Review
of the Lake City 1st Branch Line
Abandonment and Capacity
Replacement Project
On July 31, 2020, Northern Natural
Gas Company (Northern) filed an
application in Docket No. CP20–504–
000 requesting a Certificate of Public
Convenience and Necessity pursuant to
Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act to
abandon in place and construct and
operate certain natural gas pipeline
facilities. The proposed project is
known as the Lake City 1st Branch Line
Abandonment and Capacity
Replacement Project (Project) and
would provide for safer long-term
operation of Northern’s system.
On August 7, 2020, 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—February 26, 2021
90-day Federal Authorization Decision
Deadline—May 27, 2021
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 proposes the following
actions in Webster and Calhoun
Counties, Iowa: (1) Abandon in-place
about 34.2 miles of the Lake City 1st
branch pipeline from Dayton to Lake
City; (2) construct and operate about 9.2
PO 00000
Frm 00014
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
miles of 6-inch-diameter pipeline and
associated aboveground appurtenances
(an extension of the Lake City 2nd
branch line); and (3) uprate the
Maximum Allowable Operating
Pressure of the existing Callender
branch pipeline, the existing Manson
2nd branch pipeline, and 25.3 miles of
the existing Lake City 2nd branch
pipeline.
Background
On August 31, 2020, the Commission
issued a Notice of Intent to Prepare an
Environmental Assessment for the
Proposed Lake City 1st Branch Line
Abandonment and Capacity
Replacement 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; and local libraries
and newspapers. In response to the NOI,
the Commission received comments
from three landowners and the Natural
Resources Conservation Service. The
primary issues raised by the
commentors are concerns regarding
federal permits and the Project’s
impacts on farmland and private
property. 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
a free service called eSubscription. This
can reduce the amount of time you
spend researching proceedings by
automatically providing you with
notification of these filings, document
summaries, and direct links to the
documents. Go to https://www.ferc.gov/
ferc-online/overview to register for
eSubscription.
