Pursuant to section 157.9 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and
Procedure,\2\ within 90 days of this Notice the Commission staff will
either: complete its environmental review and place it into the
Commission's public record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or issue a
Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of Schedule
for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's issuance of
the final environmental impact statement (FEIS) or environmental
assessment (EA) for this proposal. The filing of an EA in the
Commission's public record for this proceeding or the issuance of a
Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review will serve to notify
Federal and State agencies of the timing for the completion of all
necessary reviews, and the subsequent need to complete all Federal
authorizations within 90 days of the date of issuance of the Commission
staff's FEIS or EA.

municipalities, and other entities,\6\ has the option to file a motion
