Texas Eastern Transmission, LP;
Notice of Availability of the Final
Environmental Impact Statement for
the Proposed Venice Extension Project
The staff of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) has prepared a final
environmental impact statement (EIS)
for the Venice Extension Project,
proposed by Texas Eastern
Transmission, LP (Texas Eastern) in the
above-referenced docket. Texas Eastern
requests authorization to provide firm
natural gas transportation service for up
to 1,260,000 dekatherms per day on its
existing Line 40 to an interconnection
with a pipeline lateral to be constructed,
owned, and operated by Venture Global
Gator Express, LLC, with ultimate
delivery to Venture Global Plaquemines
LNG, LLC Liquified Natural Gas (LNG)
Terminal, which is currently under
development in Plaquemines Parish,
Louisiana.
The final EIS assesses the potential
environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the
Venice Extension Project in accordance
with the requirements of the National
Environmental Policy Act. With the
exception of climate change impacts,
FERC staff concludes that approval of
the proposed project, with the
mitigation measures recommended in
the EIS, would not result in significant
environmental impacts. Climate change
impacts are not characterized in the EIS
as significant or less than significant
because the Commission is conducting
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:15 Feb 23, 2023
Jkt 259001
a generic proceeding to determine
whether and how the Commission will
conduct climate change significance
determinations going forward.
The final EIS addresses the potential
environmental effects of: the (i)
construction and operation of an
approximately 3.0-mile-long, 36-inchdiameter pipeline segment on Texas
Eastern’s Line 40 in Pointe Coupee
Parish; (ii) abandonment in place of a
2.2-mile-long, 36-inch-diameter existing
pipeline segment on Line 40 in Pointe
Coupee Parish; (iii) construction of a
new proposed 31,900 horsepower (hp)
compressor station (New Roads
Compressor Station) and metering and
regulating (M&R) facilities in Pointe
Coupee Parish; (iv) abandonment in
place of an existing, inactive 19,800 hp
compressor unit at Texas Eastern’s
existing White Castle Compressor
Station in Iberville Parish, Louisiana,
and an existing, inactive 19,800 hp
compressor unit at its existing Larose
Compressor Station in Lafourche Parish,
Louisiana; (v) installation of one new
31,900 hp compressor unit and related
appurtenances at both White Castle and
Larose Compressor Stations; and (vi)
upgrades at its Gator Express M&R
facility on an open water platform in
Plaquemines Parish.
The Commission mailed a copy of the
Notice of Availability of the Final
Environmental Impact Statement for the
Venice Extension 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 area. The final 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/industriesdata/natural-gas/environmentaloverview/environmental-documents2022). In addition, the final EIS may be

Protests
Pursuant to section 157.205 of the
Commission’s regulations under the
NGA,2 any person 3 or the Commission’s
staff may file a protest to the request. If
no protest is filed within the time
allowed or if a protest is filed and then
withdrawn within 30 days after the
allowed time for filing a protest, the
proposed activity shall be deemed to be
authorized effective the day after the
time allowed for protest. If a protest is
filed and not withdrawn within 30 days
after the time allowed for filing a
protest, the instant request for
authorization will be considered by the
Commission.
Protests must comply with the
requirements specified in section
157.205(e) of the Commission’s
regulations,4 and must be submitted by
the protest deadline, which is March 10,
2023. A protest may also serve as a
motion to intervene so long as the
protestor states it also seeks to be an
intervenor.
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

in accordance with Rule 214 of the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedure 5 and the regulations under
the NGA 6 by the intervention deadline
for the project, which is March 10, 2023.
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.

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.

Commission considers all comments received about the project in
determining the appropriate action to be taken. To ensure that your
comments are timely and properly recorded, please submit your comments

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