contractors listed in this notice, where
this system of records is maintained, is
controlled and monitored by security
personnel who check each individual
entering the building for his or her
employee or visitor badge.
In accordance with the Department’s
Administrative Communications System
Directive ACSD–OFO–013 entitled
‘‘Contractor Employee Personnel
Security Screenings,’’ all contract
personnel who have facility access and
system access are required to undergo a
security clearance investigation.
Individuals requiring access to Privacy
Act records are required to hold, at a
minimum, a moderate-risk security
clearance level. These individuals are
required to undergo periodic screening
at five-year intervals.
In addition to conducting security
clearances, contract and Department
employees are required to complete
security awareness training on an
annual basis. Annual security awareness
training is required to ensure that
contract and Department users are
appropriately trained in safeguarding
Privacy Act records.
The computer system employed by
the Department offers a high degree of
resistance to tampering and
circumvention. This security system
limits data access to Department and
contract staff on a ‘‘need-to-know’’ basis
and controls individual users’ ability to
access and alter records within the
system. All users of this system of
records are given a unique user
identification and password. The
Department’s Information Technology
(IT) Identification and Authentication
(IA) Standard requires the enforcement
of a complex password policy. In
addition to the enforcement of a
complex password policy, users are
required to change their password at
least every 90 days or based on the Zero
Trust Strategy/Plan in accordance with
the Department’s IT IA standards.
In accordance with the Federal
Information Security Management Act
of 2002 (FISMA), as amended by the
Federal Information Security
Modernization Act of 2014, every
Department system must receive a
signed Authorization to Operate (ATO)
from a designated Department official.
The ATO process includes a rigorous
assessment of security and privacy
controls, a plan of actions and
milestones to remediate any identified
deficiencies, and a continuous
monitoring program.
FISMA controls implemented
comprise a combination of management,
operational, and technical controls, and
include the following control families:
access control, awareness and training,

All of the Federal Loan Servicers, NFP
Federal Loan Servicers, the Federal
Perkins Loan Servicer, PCAs, and other
contractors, as listed in ‘‘SYSTEM
LOCATION,’’ undergo FISMA security
authorizations. In addition, access is
monitored 24 hours per day, 7 days a
week.

NFEnergı´a LLC; Notice of Application
and Establishing Intervention Deadline
Take notice that on July 18, 2023,
NFEnergı´a LLC (NFEnergı´a), 111 W 19th
Street, New York, New York 10011,
filed a request under section 3 of the
Natural Gas Act (NGA), and part 153 of
the Commission’s regulations requesting
authorization to permit construction
and interconnection of a new pipeline at
its MFH Facility located at the Port of
San Juan, Puerto Rico (Project).
NFEnergı´a states that the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers’ (USACE) emergency
temporary generation project, located
adjacent to the Puerto Rico Electric
Power Authority’s San Juan Power
Plant, must interconnect to an existing,
available blind flange MFH Facility in
order for that project to meet its
objectives timely. Thus, NFEnergı´a
seeks authorization to construct an
interconnection of approximately 220
feet of 10-inch-diameter pipeline to an
existing, available blind flange at the
MFH Facility in order to deliver natural
gas to USACE’s project. NFEnergı´a avers
that the existing capacity at the MFH
Facility is adequate to make available
the fuel necessary to support the
temporary power generation, all as more
fully set forth in the application which
is on file with the Commission and open
for public inspection.
In addition to publishing the full text
of this document in the Federal
Register, the Commission provides all
interested persons an opportunity to
view and/or print the contents of this
document via the internet through the
Commission’s Home Page
(www.ferc.gov) using the ‘‘eLibrary’’

the last three digits in the docket

this time, the Commission has
suspended access to the Commission’s

Commission at FercOnlineSupport@

Procedure,1 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.
Public Participation
There are three ways to become
involved in the Commission’s review of
this project: you can file comments on
the project, you can protest the filing,
and you can file a motion to intervene
in the proceeding. There is no fee or
cost for filing comments or intervening.
The deadline for filing a motion to
intervene is 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on
July 25, 2023. How to file protests,
motions to intervene, and comments is
explained below.
The Commission’s Office of Public

public engagement and participation in
Commission proceedings. OPP can help
members of the public, including
landowners, environmental justice
communities, Tribal members and
others, access publicly available
information and navigate Commission
