[Docket No. CP21–197–000]
Kern River Gas Transmission
Company; Notice of Availability of the
Final Environmental Impact Statement
for the Proposed; Delta Lateral Project
The staff of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) has prepared a final
environmental impact statement (EIS)
for the Delta Lateral Project, proposed
by Kern River Gas Transmission
Company (Kern River) in the abovereferenced docket. Kern River requests
authorization to construct, own, and
operate an approximately 36 mile-long,
24-inch-diameter pipeline; a delivery
meter station; and appurtenant facilities,
all located in Millard County, Utah.
According to Kern River, the Project
purpose is to provide firm
transportation service of 140,000
dekatherms of natural gas per day from
Opal, Wyoming to the Intermountain
Power Project, an electrical generating
facility in Delta, Utah. Prior to filing its
application, Kern River participated in
the Commission’s Pre-filing Process for
this Project under Docket No. PF20–4–
000.
The final EIS assesses the potential
environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the Delta
Lateral Project in accordance with the
requirements of the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and
responds to comments that were
received on the Commission’s
PO 00000

November 4, 2021 draft EIS.1 As
described in the final EIS, the FERC staff
concludes that approval of the Project
would result in some adverse
environmental impacts; however, with
the potential exception of climate
change impacts, these impacts would be
reduced to less-than-significant levels
because of the impact avoidance,
minimization, and mitigation measures
proposed by Kern River and those
recommended by staff in the EIS.
The U.S. Department of the Interior,
Bureau of Land Management (BLM),
participated as a cooperating agency in
the preparation of the EIS. Cooperating
agencies have jurisdiction by law or
special expertise with respect to
resources potentially affected by the
proposal and participate in the NEPA
analysis. A portion of the Project would
be constructed on lands managed by the
BLM Fillmore Field Office. The BLM
assisted in the preparation of this EIS
and may adopt all or portions of the
document to satisfy its requirements
under NEPA in response to Kern River’s
application.
The Project would consist of the
following specific facilities:
• A 35.84-mile-long, 24-inchdiameter natural gas pipeline;
• a delivery meter station;
• two mainline taps with automated
lateral inlet valve assemblies;
• an in-line inspection device
launcher and receiver;
• an automated lateral block valve
assembly; and
• ancillary facilities.
The Commission mailed a copy of the
Notice of Availability of the Final
Environmental Impact Statement for the
Proposed Delta Lateral Project to
federal, state, and local government
representatives and agencies; elected
officials; environmental and public
interest groups; Native American tribes;
potentially affected landowners and
other interested individuals and groups;
and newspapers and libraries in the
project areas. The EIS is only available
in electronic format. It may be viewed
and downloaded from the FERC’s
website (www.ferc.gov), on the natural
gas environmental documents page
(https://www.ferc.gov/industries-data/
