o. Scoping Process: Commission staff 

will prepare either an environmental 

assessment (EA) or an Environmental 

Impact Statement (EIS) that describes 

and evaluates the probable effects, if 

any, of the licensee’s proposed action 

and alternatives. The EA or EIS will 

consider environmental impacts and 

reasonable alternatives to the proposed 

action. The Commission’s scoping 

process will help determine the 

required level of analysis and satisfy the 

NEPA scoping requirements, 

irrespective of whether the Commission 

prepares an EA or an EIS. Due to 

restrictions on mass gatherings related 

to COVID–19, we do not intend to 

conduct a public scoping meeting and 

site visit in this case. Instead, we are 

soliciting written comments and 

suggestions on the preliminary list of 

issues and alternatives to be addressed 

in the NEPA document, as described in 

scoping document 1 (SD1), issued 

January 26, 2021. 

Copies of the SD1 outlining the 

subject areas to be addressed in the 

NEPA document were distributed to the 

parties on the Commission’s mailing list 

and the applicant’s distribution list. 

Copies of SD1 may be viewed on the 

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

BILLING CODE 6717–01–P 

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket No. CP20–26–000] 

Eastern Gas Transmission and 

Storage, Inc.; Notice of Request for 

Extension of Time 

Take notice that on January 21, 2021, 

Eastern Gas Transmission and Storage, 

Inc.1 (Eastern GTS) requested that the 

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 

(Commission) grant an extension of 

time, until August 22, 2021, to abandon, 

reconfigure, and relocate storage wells 

and related pipelines within its 

jurisdictional Bridgeport Storage Field 

in Harrison County, West Virginia 

(Project),2 as deemed authorized, 

effective February 22, 2020. Under the 

applicable regulations, the Project was 

to be completed and made available for 

service by February 22, 2021, i.e., 

within one year of authorization.3

Eastern GTS states that, primarily due 

to delays related to the COVID–19 

pandemic, as well as weather related 

delays, Eastern GTS will be unable to 

complete all construction activities 

necessary to complete the Project within 

the authorized one-year timeframe. 

Accordingly, Eastern GTS requests a sixmonth extension of time, until August 

22, 2021, to complete construction of 

the Project. 

This notice establishes a 15-calendar 

day intervention and comment period 

deadline. Any person wishing to 

comment on Columbia’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 (18 CFR 157.10).4

As a matter of practice, the 

Commission itself generally acts on 

requests for extensions of time to 

complete construction for Natural Gas 

Act facilities when such requests are 

contested before order issuance. For 

those extension requests that are 

contested,5 the Commission will aim to 

issue an order acting on the request 

within 45 days.6 The Commission will 

address all arguments relating to 

whether the applicant has demonstrated 

there is good cause to grant the 

extension.7 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.8 At the time 

a pipeline requests an extension of time, 

orders on certificates of public 

convenience and necessity are final and 

the Commission will not re-litigate their 

issuance.9 The OEP Director, or his or 

her designee, will act on those extension 

requests that are uncontested. 

In addition to publishing the full text 

of this document in the Federal 

Register, the Commission provides all 

interested persons an opportunity to

document via the internet through the 

Commission’s Home Page (http://

Enter the docket number excluding the 

last three digits in the docket number 

field to access the document. At this 

time, the Commission has suspended 

access to the Commission’s Public 

Reference Room, due to the 

proclamation declaring a National 

Emergency concerning COVID–19, 

issued by the President on March 13, 

2020. For assistance, contact FERC at
