[FR Doc. 2023–04313 Filed 3–1–23; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 6717–01–P DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Federal Energy Regulatory Commission [Docket No. CP22–461–000] ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Company, LLC; Notice of Availability of the Final Environmental Impact Statement for the Proposed Southside Reliability Enhancement Project The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or Commission) has prepared a final environmental impact statement (EIS) for the Southside Reliability Enhancement Project (Project), proposed by Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Company, LLC (Transco) in the abovereferenced docket. Transco requests authorization to construct and operate one new compressor station and modify two existing compressor stations and three existing meter stations in North Carolina and Virginia. The Project would provide an incremental 423,400 dekatherms per day (Dth/d) of yearround firm transportation capacity from Transco’s Compressor Station 165 and Pine Needle Storage Facility along the mainline and South Virginia Lateral pipeline systems to delivery points in North Carolina. The final 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). The FERC staff concludes that approval of the proposed Project, with the mitigation measures recommended in the EIS, would result in some adverse environmental impacts; however, impacts would be reduced to less-than- VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:21 Mar 01, 2023 Jkt 259001 significant levels. Regarding climate change impacts, the Project’s construction and operation emissions would increase the atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases (GHG), in combination with past, present, and future emissions from all other sources. Climate change impacts are not characterized in the EIS as significant or insignificant because the Commission is conducting a generic proceeding to determine whether and how the Commission will conduct significance determinations going forward.1 The EIS also concludes that no system or other alternative site would meet the Project objective while providing a significant environmental advantage over the Project as proposed. The final EIS addresses the potential environmental effects of the construction and operation of the following Project facilities: • installation of a new compressor station (Compressor Station 168) which includes one new 33,000 horsepower electric motor-driven compressor unit, and installation of new mainline valves on South Virginia Lateral A-Line and BLine at the new Compressor Station 168 in Mecklenburg County, Virginia; • addition of one 16,000 horsepower electric motor-driven compressor unit at existing Compressor Station 166 in Pittsylvania County, Virginia; • installation of piping modifications to allow for flow reversal at existing Compressor Station 155 in Davidson County, North Carolina; • replacement of one meter run to increase delivery volumes at the existing Ahoskie Meter Station in Hertford County, North Carolina; • installation of new facilities to increase delivery volumes at the existing Pleasant Hill Meter Station in Northampton County, North Carolina; and • upgrade meter and controls and debottleneck piping at the existing Iredell Meter Station in Iredell County, North Carolina. The Commission mailed a copy of the Notice of Availability of the final EIS 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.

Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for the Printing and Publishing Industry (40 CFR part 63, subpart KK) apply to both existing facilities and new facilities operating: publication rotogravure, product and PO 00000 Frm 00036 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 9990 13115 packaging rotogravure, or wide-web flexographic printing presses at major sources. These standards also apply to owners and/or operators who choose to commit to, and meet the criteria of establishing the facility to, be an area source of hazardous air pollutants (HAP). New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart KK. In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NESHAP. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Owners and operators of printing and publishing facilities. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart KK). Estimated number of respondents: 352 (total). Frequency of response: Annually, semiannually. Total estimated burden: 59,800 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $7,590,000 (per year), which includes $414,000 in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in burden from the mostrecently approved ICR as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This is due to two considerations: (1) the regulations have not changed over the past three years and are not anticipated to change over the next three years; and (2) the growth rate for this industry is very low or nonexistent, so there is no significant change in the overall burden. Since there are no changes in the regulatory requirements and there is no significant industry growth, there are also no changes in the capital/startup or operation and maintenance (O&M) costs.
