Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 214 / Tuesday, November 9, 2021 / Notices jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1 to circumstances outside of its control. Shortly after Adelphia’s receipt of its Certificate Order, Adelphia states that the COVID–19 pandemic had immediate and substantial impacts on its ability to timely obtain its remaining state environmental permits and progress construction of the Adelphia Project. Adelphia’s requests for notices to proceed with construction were directly delayed as a result. Adelphia also had to cease construction activities on numerous occasions as a result of pandemic-related protocols. Furthermore, Adelphia states that the continuing impacts on the supply chain resulting from the COVID–19 pandemic have caused and continue to cause delays in the procurement and delivery of essential equipment and material. Thus, Adelphia requests an extension to construct and place into service the Adelphia Project until June 20, 2023. This notice establishes a 15-calendar day intervention and comment period deadline. Any person wishing to comment on Adelphia’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).2 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,3 the Commission will aim to issue an order acting on the request within 45 days.4 The Commission will address all arguments relating to whether the applicant has demonstrated there is good cause to grant the extension.5 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 2 Only motions to intervene from entities that were party to the underlying proceeding will be accepted.
