Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 6 / Tuesday, January 9, 2024 / Notices
A. Are the draft criteria clear and
appropriate for the definition for a zero
emissions building? Should any other
criteria be considered for Part 1? Please
provide specific feedback about this
draft definition.
B. Energy efficiency criteria.
Æ Should energy efficiency be
considered a criteria for the definition of
a zero emissions building?
Æ If the efficiency of an existing
building should be considered, do you
agree that requiring energy performance
in the top 25% of similar buildings is an
appropriate measure of energy
efficiency for this definition? (ENERGY
STAR® score of 75 or above.) Should it
be higher or lower?
D Are there other benchmarks or
approaches that should be considered?
D For an existing building, is one year
of measured energy performance an
appropriate requirement for
demonstrating efficiency or is another
approach appropriate?
D Are the draft criteria appropriate for
single-family homes? Are there other
benchmarks that should be considered
for single-family homes?
Æ For new construction, are the draft
criteria appropriate? The modeled
building performance is at least 10%
lower than the energy use according to
the latest version of IECC or ASHRAE
90.1 (e.g., model energy code) and the
building is designed to achieve an
ENERGY STAR score of at least 90 (for
eligible buildings). Are there other
benchmarks that should be considered?
D Are the draft criteria appropriate for
single family homes? Are there other
benchmarks that should be considered
for single family homes?
C. On-site emissions from energy use.
• Should there be an exemption
allowed for emission producing
emergency generation? Are any other
exemptions needed?
• Should biofuels consumed on-site
be allowed? If so, how?
D. Clean energy generation and
procurement.
• Are the clean energy criteria
provided appropriate for this definition?
Are there other clean energy criteria that
should be considered? Should
community solar qualify for this
requirement? If so, how?
• Should there be a proximity
requirement for off-site power used to
meet the clean power criterion? If so,
how should a proximity requirement be
implemented (e.g., regional definition,
phase-in, etc.)?
E. Documentation is important for
effective implementation.
• Should organizations leveraging the
definition be able to determine whether
buildings have to meet it annually, one
time, or on a different frequency?
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 262001
• If the definition is extended to
single-family homes, what
documentation should be required?
• Are licensed professional and thirdparty certification bodies the
appropriate parties to independently
verify the documentation that a building
has met the definition? Beyond existing
government resources such as EPA’s
ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager, are
there other methods to verify meeting
the zero emissions building definition?
• What time frame should be used for
greenhouse gas (GHG) calculations (i.e.
hourly, monthly by year, annually)?
Explain how this would be
implemented effectively across the
market.
• What other verification criteria are
necessary to make this definition useful
for the marketplace?
• Are there any issues regarding
conflict or synergy with regional, state
or local energy and climate programs
that ought to be addressed?
F. Use cases.
• Is it important for a national
definition to cover all building types,
including commercial, multifamily, and
single-family?
• Are there any other
recommendations that would help
clarify and improve the definition?
• While Part 1 of the definition
focuses on operating emissions, what
other areas should be considered in
future parts of the definition, such as
embodied carbon, refrigerant, and grid
interactivity?

Notice of Request for Extension of
Time
Take notice that on December 28,
2023, Ozark Gas Transmission, LLC
(Ozark) requested that the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission
(Commission) grant an extension of
time, until May 29, 2024, to complete
construction and place into service the
Ozark Supply Access Project (Project)
located in Lawrence County, Arkansas.
On September 28, 2022, the
Commission issued a Notice of Request
Under Blanket Authorization, which
established a 60-day comment period,
ending on November 28, 2022, to file
protests. No protests were filed during
the comment period, and accordingly
the project was authorized on November
29, 2022 and by Rule should have been
completed within one year.
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 262001
In its 2023 Extension of Time Request,
Ozark states that it was not able to
complete all the work associated with
the Project by the November 29, 2023,
deadline. To date Ozark reported
completion of the Standing Rock
Compressor Station modifications 1 and
the Loop Line 2 portions of the Project
as well as progress at the Raney
Compressor Station and MRT Meter
Station portions of the Project.3 There
was no progress reported for the
interconnection point with the Natural
Gas Pipeline Company of America, LLC.
Ozark attributes the delay to material
procurement and delivery timelines still
being behind schedule due to the
COVID–19 pandemic. Additionally,
Ozark states that obtaining approvals for
final design and materials related to
various elements of the new
interconnection points from the other
interstate pipelines has proved
challenging. Finally, construction crews
have experienced delays at times due to
heavy rain leading to wet conditions.
Accordingly, Ozark requests an
extension of time until May 29, 2024, to
complete construction of project
facilities with in-service projected to
occur at the beginning of May 2024.
This notice establishes a 15-calendar
day intervention and comment period
deadline. Any person wishing to
comment on Ozark’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 (NGA) (18 CFR 157.10).
As a matter of practice, the
Commission itself generally acts on
requests for extensions of time to
complete construction for NGA facilities
when such requests are contested before
order issuance. For those extension
requests that are contested,4 the
Commission will aim to issue an order
acting on the request within 45 days.5

The Commission will address all
arguments relating to whether the
applicant has demonstrated there is
good cause to grant the extension.6 The
Commission will not consider
arguments that re-litigate the issuance of
the certificate order, including whether
the Commission properly found the
project to be in the public convenience
and necessity and whether the
Commission’s environmental analysis
for the certificate complied with the
National Environmental Policy Act

an extension of time, orders on
certificates of public convenience and

comments. In both instances, please reference the Project docket number
