Commission 

[Docket No. CP11–25–000] 

Questar Pipeline Company; Notice of 

Availability of the Environmental 

Assessment for the Proposed Mainline 

104 Extension to Fidlar Project 

The staff of the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (FERC or 

Commission) has prepared an 

environmental assessment (EA) for the 

Mainline 104 Extension to Fidlar Project 

(Project) proposed by Questar Pipeline 

Company (Questar) in the abovereferenced docket. Questar requests 

authorization to extend its existing 

Mainline 104 pipeline eastward by 

constructing, operating, and 

maintaining a natural gas transmission 

pipeline and ancillary facilities between 

Questar’s Green River Block Valve and 

its Fidlar Compressor Station located in 

Uintah County, Utah. The purpose of 

the Project is to allow shippers greater 

access to Uinta basin natural gas 

supplies near the Fidlar Compressor 

Station. 

The EA assesses the potential 

environmental effects of the 

construction and operation of the 

Project in accordance with the 

requirements of the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 

(NEPA). The FERC staff concludes that 

approval of the proposed project, with 

appropriate mitigating measures, would 

not constitute a major federal action 

significantly affecting the quality of the 

human environment. 

The U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs 

(BIA), U.S. Bureau of Land Management 

(BLM), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 

and Utah Public Lands and Policy 

Coordination Office participated as 

cooperating agencies in the preparation 

of the EA. Cooperating agencies have 

jurisdiction by law or special expertise 

with respect to resources potentially 

affected by the proposal and participate 

in the NEPA analysis. The BIA and BLM 

will adopt and use the EA to consider 

the issuance of a right-of-way grant for 

the portion of the Project on tribal and 

federal lands, respectively. 

Questar’s proposed Project includes 

the following facilities: 

• About 24.6 miles of 24-inchdiameter natural gas transmission 

pipeline; 

• Three mainline block valves at 

mileposts (MP) 8.5, 14.5, and 24.6; 

• One pig launcher/receiver at the 

Fidlar Compressor Station; 

• Eight underground pipeline taps at 

MPs 3.1, 5.4, 6.3, 8.5, 12.7, 13.3, 16.9, 

and 20.9; and 

• A measurement and control facility 

within the Fidlar Compressor Station. 

The EA has been placed in the public 

files of the FERC and is available for 

public viewing on the FERC’s Web site 

at http://www.ferc.gov using the 

eLibrary link. A limited number of 

copies of the EA are available for 

distribution and public inspection at: 

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 

Public Reference Room, 888 First Street 

NE., Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426, 

(202) 502–8371. 

Copies of the EA have been mailed to 

federal, state, and local government 

representatives and agencies; elected 

officials; environmental and public 

interest groups; Native American tribes; 

other interested individuals and groups; 

newspapers and libraries in the project 

area; and parties to this proceeding. 

Any person wishing to comment on 

the EA may do so. Your comments 

should focus on the potential 

environmental effects, reasonable 

alternatives, and measures to avoid or 

lessen environmental impacts. The more 

specific your comments, the more useful 

they will be. To ensure that your 

comments are properly recorded and 

considered prior to a Commission 

decision on the proposal, it is important 

that the FERC receives your comments 

in Washington, DC on or before April 4, 

2011. 

For your convenience, there are three 

methods you can use to submit your 

comments to the Commission. In all 

instances, please reference the project 

docket number (CP11–25–000) with 

your submission. The Commission 

encourages electronic filing of
