transmission line; and (15) appurtenant
facilities.
The Gregory B. Jarvis Project takes
advantage of the releases prescribed by
the New York State Canal Corporation
(NYS Canal Corp) in accordance with
the 2012 Hinckley Reservoir Operating
Diagram to generate power. Project
operation is adjusted on a twice-weekly
basis. NYPA does not deviate from the
operating diagram unless directed to do
so by the NYS Canal Corp. Reservoir
levels are maintained between 1,195 feet
and 1,225 feet (the elevation of the
spillway crest); however, reservoir water
levels can fall below 1,195 feet during
a dry season. The Gregory B. Jarvis
Project does not operate when reservoir
levels are below 1,195 feet.
The project has two horizontal Kaplan
units which are each capable of
operating between 300 and 900 cubic
feet per second (cfs) for a total hydraulic
capacity of 1,800 cfs under normal
operating conditions. At flows within
the operating range of the units (300 to
1,800 cfs), the project provides outflow
via generation. At flows below 300 cfs,
or when the reservoir water surface
elevation is below 1,195 feet, the project
does not operate. During these
conditions, the low-level sluice gate no.
4 is used to pass a minimum flow of 160
cfs. At flows greater than 1,800 cfs, and
when the reservoir water surface
elevation is greater than 1,225 feet,
downstream releases are passed via a
combination of generation and spillage.
NYPA occasionally operates the
project in peaking mode. When NYPA is
peaking, it will average the outflow
required by the operating diagram over
the course of the day. When operated in
this manner, the project generates with
a lower outflow during non-peak
demand periods and then generates
with a higher outflow during peak
demand periods such that the total daily
average flow is equal to the outflow
prescribed by the operating diagram.
NYPA proposes to continue operating
the project in the same manner as the
current license and is not proposing to
install any new structures as part of the
relicensing. The project generated an
annual average of approximately 28,863
megawatt-hours between 2010 and
2019.

motion to intervene to the Commission
in accordance with Rule 214 of the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedure 6 and the regulations under
the NGA 7 by the intervention deadline
for the project, which is March 14, 2022.

extent known, your position regarding
the proceeding, as well as your interest
in the proceeding. For an individual,
this could include your status as a
landowner, ratepayer, resident of an
impacted community, or recreationist.

directly impacted by the project in order
to intervene. For more information
about motions to intervene, refer to the
FERC website at https://www.ferc.gov/
resources/guides/how-to/intervene.asp.
All timely, unopposed motions to

Take notice that on January 3, 2022, Columbia Gas Transmission, LLC

under the Natural Gas Act (NGA), requesting authorization to abandon
four injection/withdrawal wells and associated pipelines and

Fields in Guernsey, Hocking, and Vinton Counties, Ohio, respectively.
Columbia proposes to abandon these facilities under authorities granted
by its blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP83-76-000.\1\ The
proposed abandonments will have no impact on Columbia's existing
customers or affect Columbia's existing storage operations. The
estimated cost for the Project is approximately $2.5 million, all as

Protests must comply with the requirements specified in section
157.205(e) of the Commission's regulations,\5\ and must be submitted by
the protest deadline, which is March 14, 2022. A protest may also serve
as a motion to intervene so long as the protestor states it also seeks

Interventions
Any person has the option to file a motion to intervene in this
proceeding. Only intervenors have the right to request rehearing of
Commission orders issued in this proceeding and to subsequently
challenge the Commission's orders in the U.S. Circuit Courts of Appeal.
To intervene, you must submit a motion to intervene to the
Commission in accordance with Rule 214 of the Commission's Rules of
Practice and Procedure \6\ and the regulations under the NGA \7\ by the
intervention deadline for the project, which is March 14, 2022. As
described further in Rule 214, your motion to intervene must state, to
the extent known, your position regarding the proceeding, as well as
your interest in the proceeding. For an individual, this could include
your status as a landowner, ratepayer, resident of an impacted
community, or recreationist. You do not need to have property directly
impacted by the project in order to intervene. For more information
about motions to intervene, refer to the FERC website at https://www.ferc.gov/resources/guides/how-to/intervene.asp.

All timely, unopposed motions to intervene are automatically
granted by operation of Rule 214(c)(1). Motions to intervene that are
filed after the intervention deadline are untimely and may be denied.
Any late-filed motion to intervene must show good cause for being late
and must explain why the time limitation should be waived and provide
justification by reference to factors set forth in Rule 214(d) of the
Commission's Rules and Regulations. A person obtaining party status
will be placed on the service list maintained by the Secretary of the
Commission and will receive copies (paper or electronic) of all
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties.
Comments

Commission considers all comments received about the project in

serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. To become a party,
you must intervene in the proceeding.
