The March 18 Order, Ordering Paragraph (C) required Transco 2 to complete abandonment of the facilities within one year of the order date. On December 22, 2021, Transco requested an extension of time until December 31, 2022, to complete abandonment of Project facilities, that we granted on March 15, 2022. Transco now requests an extension of time until December 31, 2023, to complete abandonment of the Project facilities. Transco states that it has completed the majority of abandonment activities but will be unable to complete the removal of approximately 14,240 feet of 24-inch-diameter pipe located in state waters. Transco avers that the contractor it selected was originally scheduled to begin removal of the pipe in state waters in July of 2022, however, delays in the remaining abandonment activities pushed the state water removals outside of their anticipated timeframe. The barges required for the removal are now unavailable through the end of November 2022. Transco asserts that seasonal weather conditions and water levels prohibit safe removal of the state water pipeline beginning December 2022. Transco states that the most favorable weather window of offshore construction activities is generally May through September of each year. Accordingly, Transco requests an extension until December 31, 2023, which it asserts will allow flexibility in scheduling around weather events that may delay abandonment activities. This notice establishes a 15-calendar day intervention and comment period deadline. Any person wishing to comment on Transco’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).3 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 2 Transco is the operator of the pipeline facilities proposed to be abandoned. 3 Only motions to intervene from entities that were party to the underlying proceeding will be accepted.
