filed an application under sections 7(c)
of the Natural Gas Act (NGA), and Part
157 of the Commission’s regulations
requesting that the Commission
authorize its Ohio Valley Connector
Expansion Project (Project), which will
provide up to 350,000 dekatherms per
day (Dth/d) of incremental firm
deliverability on its Mainline System
and new transportation paths. This
Project is an expansion of the Equitrans’
Ohio Valley Connector Project which
was approved in Docket No. CP15–41–
000 and which is already in service.
Specifically, the Project will provide
additional pipeline delivery capabilities
to existing interconnects with Rockies
Express Pipeline and Rover Pipeline
LLC, all as more fully set forth in the
application which is on file with the
Commission and open for public
inspection.
Specifically, Specifically, Equitrans
proposes to acquire the Cygrymus

CP14–518–000) that was issued by the
Commission on December 21, 2016.
Golden Pass requests authorization to
modify the previously authorized
facilities in Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana
and Orange County, Texas.
The draft EIS assesses the potential
environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the
Project in accordance with the
requirements of the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). With
the exception of climate change
impacts, the FERC staff concludes that
approval of the proposed Project, with
the mitigation measures recommended
in this EIS, would not result in
significant environmental impacts.
FERC staff is unable to determine
significance with regards to climate
change impacts.
The draft EIS incorporates by

Statement (FEIS) issued in Docket No.
CP14–517–000 and CP14–518–000 for
the Golden Pass LNG Export Project
(2016 FEIS) and the Commission’s
findings and conclusions in its
December 21, 2016 Order.1 The draft
EIS addresses the potential
environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the
following Project facilities:
• Relocate the approved Compressor
Station at Milepost (MP) 66
approximately three miles, to MP69;
• increase the amount of compression
at the relocated compressor station;
• eliminate approved modifications
to interconnects at MP63 and MP66;
• minor changes to approved
interconnect modifications at MP68;
and
• eliminate the previously approved 3
miles of 24-inch diameter pipeline loop
between MP66 and MP69.
CP21–458–000 (Orange County, Texas)
• Relocate the MP33 Compressor
Station approximately fifty feet northnorthwest to avoid an existing pipeline

compression at the MP33 Compressor
Station;

Persons who comment on the environmental review of this project
will be placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list, and will
receive notification when the environmental documents (EA or EIS) are
issued for this project and will be notified of meetings associated
with the Commission's environmental review process.
The Commission considers all comments received about the project in
determining the appropriate action to be taken. However, the filing of
a comment alone will not serve to make the filer a party to the
proceeding. To become a party, you must intervene in the proceeding.
For instructions on how to intervene, see below.
Interventions
Any person, which includes individuals, organizations, businesses,
municipalities, and other entities,\3\ has the option to file a motion

subsequently challenge the Commission's orders in the U.S. Circuit
Courts of Appeal.

Commission in accordance with Rule 214 of the Commission's Rules of
Practice and Procedure \4\ and the regulations under the NGA \5\ by the
intervention deadline for the project, which is March 4, 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
